Montreal bound

After much debate, I finally convinced my place of work that despite the fact that it may not be as popular as New York or Paris, it is our duty as a Canadian media outlet to cover both Montreal and Toronto Fashion Weeks. Their response? “You’re absolutely right. So go do it.” Lousy bastards would not shell out for an actual writer.

So to compensate for me essentially having to do it all myself and still do my day to day job, I booked myself into the Hôtel Godin. If I’ve got to bust my ass, I may as well do it in style.

I'm actually fairly excited for Montreal Fashion Week as well. It's really a shame that for the most part, Canadians who can really afford high-end designer clothing would rather spend their money on Louis Vuitton or Armani rather than someone homegrown.

I do realize there are some whack Canadian designers out there, but I've also seen some amazing ones that still don't get a lot of attention. Hopefully I can just force them down the throats of the Canadian public. :)

Now back to the Godin. Check out the heritage staircase. Soooo purdy.
