What and Where
These photos were taken from the city's National Women's Show on September 25th to 26th, where we had lots of fun checking out all the specialty booths from fitness to nutrition, cooking wares to vintage wines, beauty and fashion and everything in-between! We (J and I, courtesy of E dropping us off), especially enjoyed the complimentary massages and of course this, the free, professional manicure from the Merivale Mall, who was one of the event's official sponsor:
It has been a whirlwind of fashion events and work has been tremendously hectic that it has taken its ugly toll on blogging! I know I've missed you guys and I've been MIA from your blogs but I will try to take the time this weekend to drop by and check all the fabulous outfits and post that I've missed! I want to welcome new friends of Twenty York Street through Google (sorry for the conusfion Karo, the follow button is all the way at the bottom!) and through http://twitter.com/#!/20YS, who knew I can actually tweet!
If you do have a chance to check more Ottawa Fashion Week photos and reviews, please head over to the fabulous Billings Bridge Blog, I've written a post about how to just take a moment, breathe... and enjoy!
Much love mes amis!

p.s. I feel really silly posting this photo but this is the only one I got
with my nails all done up - for free!
