Nina, Our New Mascot... err Model

I've been getting A lot good responses about the "head" I've been putting on our the girls modeling clothes. I think she looks cool and her expression is moody yet non-judgmental. Could she be our mascot? Mascot sounds like some sort of giant furry animal that you see at sport events. Probably a better term would be "in house model".

I'd call her "Nina" and make a Facebook and Myspace page for her. Then I'd put her profile on Lavalife and have her start dating. She'll be the toast of the town with her insane fashions. Hahaha, she'll have a more exciting life than me!

The little black dress

Just had to add another dress to the blog. This one has been very popular. All our dresses are above the knee short, shoulder baring sassy and all below $100. That price applies to the amazing silver sequin dress too!

Vancouver Olympic Mascots are very Tokidoki

Vancouver recently unveiled it's Olympic mascots. There's a bear (I swear it was an eagle), Sasquatch and an orca. There was a poll immediately done and over half the respondents didn't like them. I saw the designer on TV and thought she was young. She was really nervous being interviewed. Can you imagine working so hard on something and immediately after showing your work being told that more than 50% of people didn't like your designs? I felt bad for her.

Many of the respondents thought they looked like Japanese anime. They do have a cuteness about them that doesn't seem to originate from Vancouver. My experience with the Tokidoki frenzy of last year immediately made me think of their designs. You can probably pick out a few characters on the right that look similar to the mascots.

I like our mascots! When you look at some of the previous Olympic mascots you'll even appreciate ours even more. On the left is the 2006 Torino mascots... a snowball and a block of ice.

All this mascot talk is making me think that the store should get one too. Perhaps it should be a dog, plush toy, Britney... Something fun!
