Playing Paparazzi at BC Fashion Week

Hello readers, I am back! It's been a few days away from blogging as I took some time off to breathe in the mountain air at Whistler. I've got lots of catching up to do, so let's get started with last night, when I attended the BC Fashion Week opening show with Kelsey at The Anthology. The featured designer was Jacqueline Conoir, and the show was held at a sleek new club called Fortune Sound Club in dicey Chinatown (for my non-Vancouver friends, our Chinatown is rather drug-ridden and full of the homeless but is slowly changing into the latest It neighborhood). It had all the proper edge and chic one would expect at a fashion show.

The show was jam-packed, and I tried my best to play paparazzi. Being small is definitely a disadvantage when it comes to runway photography!

My favorite photo was unrelated to what was happening on the runway, but rather when supermodel and runway coach Stacey McKenzie posed for my camera in an impromptu moment (seen above). She's absolutely stunning in person and commands an amazing presence.

The show itself was alright, not really my style but I was happy to be there to soak in the atmosphere. Conoir's 2010 Spring collection featured mostly structured business wear, accented by some swingy tops and dresses. My favorite part of the collection was the long evening dresses, some in psychedelic prints and others in bridal creams and whites.








Up next, a recap of my Whistler trip and some outfit posts. Stay tuned!
