Call it voyeuristic, call it vain or simply call it as
living vicariously through someone else’s life, or in this case, shopping
experience is, whether we admit it or not, something that we all enjoy doing
once in awhile. Why else would vlogs (video blogs to you dear neophyte) of
shopping hauls after shopping hauls get millions of hit in YouTube?
Next Olympic sport it may not be but what it is - is fun,
light and informative entertainment that could save you tons of time and effort!
Key word - informative? Absolutely!
I don’t think I’ve ever tried a new restaurant these days
without consulting foodie blogs and review websites. I don’t think I’ve lusted
over the latest beautifully constructed yet wildly affordable classic trench coat
from JACOB without checking my trusted fashion blogs. Nor have I ventured
smothering my face with the newest exotic sea foam mask (I wonder if they have that at THANN?) without verifying its
effectiveness from my dependable beauty blogs.
The point is, blogs are not just guilty pleasures but
they’re actually a great source of information. They’ll tell you What’s Out and
What’s Hot, Where to Splurge and Where to Save and if saving all that time and
money does not sound fantastic, then I don’t know what is.
Oh wait, I do know!
How about becoming one
top fabulous Vlogger yourself?
2012 PLACE D'ORLEANS
VLOGGER SEARCH
I’m
very excited to tell you that for the first time ever in the city of Ottawa,
you can have the chance to VLOG for the city’s go-to mall – Place d’Orleans! On
top of earning the prestige of being the top shopping ambassador for the mall,
you can win the big, fat, chance of earning $300 a month to spend to your
heart’s desire at Place D’Orleans!
It
could be anything and everything! For 6 months, you will have the rare

page to learn more) and tell everyone about it through your vlogs!
And if
Friday’s Blogger event is any indication, I cannot tell you enough how
marvelous this opportunity is going to be. I have been invited to many a
fashion show and high profile red carpet events but this one (generously hosted by Place D'Orleans) is no doubt, one of the most well-done, most extraordinary
event this city has ever seen.
Lavish cupcakes, marvelous beauty and hair bar, highly
glamourized DIY craft table, whimsical dream closet, gorgeous personal shoppers
(whom as you can see from the photos are really veritable eye candy), a
dedicated photographer in tow and $150 dollars to spend on anything I fancy and the swag bags, oh the most dreamy swag bags!
Life is beautiful, isn’t it?
