Quebec fashion sell-off

25 Oct 2010

Each year at this time takes place at the Bonsecours market sell-off of Quebec fashion. Quebec designers sell their excess inventory or samples at a reduced price … It looks great!

It is true that there is enought tol search for hours on the two floors of shops, but I think you mustn’t come with a clear idea and maybe you’ll fall on the gem! Designers present are for me in the “classic” section. No original cut or with the effect “WoW”, but casual clothes of good quality.

What I learned: The brand Soia & Kyo for his japanese cuts that I’ve already heard.

To do again next year ! And maybe I’ll find my gem!

Coloured fall

4 Oct 2010

What a great season! Tree leaves turn yellow and fall to form a colorful carpet and replace the concrete … In every street of Montreal landscape is different because all the trees do not change color in the same way, so it is interesting to see directly into a forest.

Since it rained a lot these days, a walk in the forest is not ideal because the roads are muddy. So we went to Mont-Royal (Montreal) to admire that. The arrival at Beaver Lake is not the most impressive to my taste because all the trees are not red or orange, but it seems that this is another place (see section of Mount Royal in the summer). The view on the lookout Montreal is always amazing! The most interesting is the way that we can go down to the city side of the park avenue. We’re really in the forest, and at the turning of a path we have another view of the city and much stronger than Red Lake.

I let you see in pictures …
