Avenue Magazines Top 40 Under 40 2012 Party

Last week I had the priviledge of attending Avenue Magazine's Top 40 Under 40 event at Devonian Gardens at the CORE. It was a fabulous event announcing all the winners for 2012, Mayor Nenshi was in attendance as was Mr. Fabulous and Michelle Magnan of Toque Girls. There was freely flowing champange from Moet and it was brilliantly catered by Great Events with an eatable wall, planted pot deserts, and pie pops!

Check out some of the great style I spotted!

'Twas the Night' is a 'give to get in' event. Tickets are $15 and 100% of all proceeds from ticket sales are donated to local charities - BeCause: a next generation initiative of the United Way of Calgary and the National Music Centre project. Tickets are available from the CORE's Customer Service Centre and online here.  Calgarians have enjoyed a year of celebrations in 2012 and 'Twas the Night' will be the grand finale.

Leather Love

 

Leather is one of the hottest trends this season, faux or real. The sleek trend plays up the sophisticated side of edgy with a hint of leather from piping to panels and full items perfect for layering. Style your leather piece any which way, from work to play.
