My AMAZING new job!

I have finally stepped back from the fashion retail world, only to enter into the extremely exciting world of furniture, lol! I'm loving my new job @ Shelter ITS AWESOME! They sell beautiful high end furniture! It has an awesome mix of styles between the new young, hip, modern and contemporary, combined with a retro vintage feel! Come and see some of the extraordinary pieces they have! 885 Caledonia Rd. You won't be disappointed!

SUCCESS

Well the show for Rock The Runway was GREAT, all except for one person who did not like my collection and reviewed it as "dowdy, prairie hookers". I thought it was funny. That was the only bad review I've gotten so far...knock on wood! There are a BUTT LOAD of pictures and videos to post so I will be doing that in the next little while, the reason I have not posted anything in quuuuite sometime is because of my prepping to get ready for RTR and now that its over, I've been taking this time to RELAX!!! But now that I have caught up with the sleep I have missed and the eating I had little of, I'm ready to keep rolling and start planning my NEW COLLECTION! I HAVE already started planning my new collection and cannot wait to get started! Keep reading, alot is in store!

Alex Evans Photoshoot.

Alex Evans is an AMAZING photographer and someone who I am so honored to call one of my close friends. His work is nothing short of breath-taking! Sunday night he had to take some pictures for a University project of his, so we took some pictures. I don't think that either of us had expected for the pictures to be this amazing. Don't get me wrong, whatever we would have done, the pictures would still kick some serious ass, but THESE pictures...COME ON! They are stunning, as am I if I do say so myself, hahaha! The paint on my face was SO tight, cause every time I would put a new layer of paint on, Alex would make me laugh and I'd have to put more on. It got so tight, that at one point, it actually held my skin in place and it felt like I wasn't smiling. Alex was saying to me, "Chris! STOP SMILING!" hahaha, I was like, "IM NOT". Alex has also shot one of dresses before, a few months ago. It was modeled by Jami Lynne Harper and was part of my last collection. I'll post all pictures mentioned in this blurp. Anyways, it was a fun night and I look forward to shooting with Alex again! Enjoy the photos!

RTR UPDATE!

BAH! Time is ticking and I am getting so FUCKING excited! So, first of all the Logo for The Rock The Runway event is actually this one, right above ^ ALSO I totally didn't even realize I did this, but I got the date wrong its MARCH 5TH!!! COME COME COME! This collection is going to be my BEST!

MORE TO COME!

So, I realized that I have a very hard time keeping up with posts! It's horrible, so I figured I would post more, if I had more to post about other than just myself and my designs, haha. I'm going to start posting my own fashion tips, my "Fashion Philosophies" if you will :) Some tips on style, as well as other things such as shoes, accessories, dresses and other designers that I love! I'm also currently working on a BRAND NEW collection which I will be showing at this years ROCK THE RUNWAY which be held at the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) on March 1st 2011! I'm so excited for the show, which will have Brian Bailey, from Project Runway Canada, as this years Special Ambassador. It's going to be a HUGE show, you should all come and buy a ticket, all proceeds will be donated to WAR CHILD! Big things are in store for me for 2011, so keep following me and reading my blog, there is MUCH, much, much more to come from me :)
