The lovely people at <a href="http://www.matchstick.ca/" style="font-weight: bold;">Matchstick</a> sent me some <a href="http://www.herbalessences.ca/en_CA/collections/hydralicious/default.jsp" style="font-weight: bold;">Herbal Essence</a> shampoos and conditioners from their new <span style="font-style: italic;">Hydralicious</span> collection. I bought Herbal Essence a little while ago - the "Long Term Relationship" but wasn't really loving it for my hair. I've been using the orange one (Featherweight) this week and am really liking it - I guess there really is different shampoos for different hair types.<br />
<br />
I fell deeply in love with local stylist <a href="http://www.gregmayhair.com/">Greg May</a>'s products during TIFF last Fall. We'll see if I fall in love with Herbal Essence - tomorrow I start on the pink (self-targeting) one.<br />

I feel it should be strictly a trade event - especially when most people are there to work. The <span style="font-weight: bold;">majority</span> of public attending the shows respect that, but <span style="font-style: italic;">some</span> public don't take that into consideration: they steal seats, fill up space in the already crammed tents, complain about the shows being "so short", and generally just get in the way.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXj2yM-V70XSnxSlDdzsMo6TtP1Nq3x7ndBWfQa7BbxgkFRBbZFyv_ZpYerl6gp4jY3akhPilSusBj6NlU9Ywks07zOwUx98e_03KHMK_XiTlrW4Jwl5tYZseOcRv2MlB4LiBWjMvSf-w/s1600-h/lgfw.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXj2yM-V70XSnxSlDdzsMo6TtP1Nq3x7ndBWfQa7BbxgkFRBbZFyv_ZpYerl6gp4jY3akhPilSusBj6NlU9Ywks07zOwUx98e_03KHMK_XiTlrW4Jwl5tYZseOcRv2MlB4LiBWjMvSf-w/s400/lgfw.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304201580982510178" border="0" /></a><br />I do want everyone to support and promote Canadian fashion, so I <span style="font-weight: bold;">will</span> post the link on where to get passes to <a href="http://www.lgfashionweek.ca/"><span style="font-weight: bold;">LG Fashion Week</span></a>, but before I do, I'd like to share my "Ten Fashion Commandments" for attending industry fashion shows:<br /><br />1.

Thou shall remain outside the runway room for invite only shows.<br />5. Thou shall expect standing room only.<br />6. Thou shall not steal seats.<br />7. Thou shall not covet the gift bags of your neighbours.<br />8. Thou shall not speak loudly during the show.<br />9. Thou shall respect the space of the media.<br />10. Thou shall not stalk the models.<br /><br />Provided I haven't put you off too much, you can get your public day passes through the <a href="http://www.f-list.ca/"><span style="font-weight: bold;">F-List</span></a> for $75 each day of shows.<br /><br />See you in the tents, just don't steal my seat - <span style="font-style: italic;">please! </span><span>;)</span><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-599104180715234519.post-33712944567847944012009-02-16T17:02:00.002-05:002009-02-16T17:06:27.029-05:00Rita Tesolin Inventory SaleCelebrated Canadian jewellery designer Rita Tesolin is having an inventory sale.
