CHRISTMAS CHEERS WITH APT22 - WHAT A GREAT EVENING!!!


Last Thursday, Kimberlie Stern from APT22 - one of the Calgary's boutiques - together with her girls hosted amazing shopping night!!! Just perfect idea for shopping before Christmas!!
For those who didn't have chance to be in the store yet - APT22 is very trendy boutique located in the heart of Calgary downtown carrying both amazing clothes from different labels (TART, Bella Lux, Karina Grimaldi, olive and olivia, Blank, Veronica M, Fate) and beautiful accessories & shoes.
During the evening guests enjoyed shopping while sipping some prosecco, tasting delicious appetizers - everything in the beats of great music by DJ. One of the night specials was lips touch ups provided by very talented Makeup Artist from NARS - Candice Fudge.
Congratulations to Kim and her team for having such a great evening!!!
Special "Thank You" words to my Friend and great photographer, Gary Evans from FullFrameFotography for taking all the pictures that night!!!Thanks to him - You can see what you've missed!!!

T'WAS THE NIGHT - GREAT SHOPPING EVENT AT THE CORE, CALGARY!!!

What an evening...!!!!! I heard this statement many times right after the actual event - "T'was The Night" - the biggest, private, after-hours shopping benefit that
Calgary has ever seen!!!
On the evening of November 30th, 2011, the Core (TD Square/Holt Renfrew) attracted over 7.500 people to celebrate the kick-off to the holiday season, the multi-million dollar renovation of the Core and support two non-profit organizations who are changing the landscape of urban Calgary - the United Way's "BeCause"initiative and
the National Music Centre Project.
Just that night approx. $40.000 was raised to support these two local charities!!

During the evening, Calgarians not only had a chance to do actual Christmas shopping but also could walk on the red carpet and take photo with international blogger & eTalk host - Lainey Lui (www.laineygossip.com); admire the Core's spectacular new 45-foot Christmas Tree (the tallest of its kind in Western Canada); but one of the most exciting part was for sure a special holiday performance by Juno Award Winning artist - Chantal Kreviazuk, and other performances around the shopping centre - including the Calgary Girls Choir!!!
Looking forward to see more of those kind of events in Calgary!!!
