The Portobello West Fashion and Art Market has organized a couple of special weekend-long holiday markets!
The market, which usually takes place on the last Sunday of the month at the Rocky Mountaineer Train Station in Vancouver, will be holding additional holiday markets on the last Saturday AND Sunday of November and December, from noon to 6pm.

If there is a cheap martini or a deal on shoes to be had in this city, I will be there, and so can you.

One of a Kind
If you're like me, you love having clothes and jewelry that aren't just like every other girl's. You search out original items to make you stand out. People are always asking me where my jewelry is from, and usually my answer is "Portobello West."
But that could change after next weekend's One of a Kind Show and Sale (Thursday October 8th to Sunday October 10th at the Vancouver Convention Centre). Over 200 artists from across North America will be exhibiting their wares. And you have the chance to buy some of them! Hooray!
This show and sale is perfectly timed to get you started on your Christmas shopping early. I know it's hard to go around only spending money on other people for these few months leading up to the holidays, but it's so rewarding to give unique and beautiful gifts that you know your friends and family are going to love. Didn't your mom ever tell you, "You should always give gifts that you would be happy to receive." Mine did, and I live by it!

Where have you been?
Where have I been?
That is a great question, but the answer is not so interesting.
I've been working, working, working, as I recently started a new job. However, things seem to have stabilized and now I am back, and I am ready to tell you about all the fun and exciting things that will be going on in our fair city.
I should have the calendar chock-full of events in the next few days, too.
So toodle-oo for now, I'll get cracking on this!

Trending and Spending
I just added a great-looking event to the calendar (below)! It's Spend on Trend, a three-day retail event featuring a variety of independent Canadian designers! Sounds to me like it's going to be even better than Portobello West. Not that I'm complaining about Portobello West - love it!
Have a look at the calendar, or go to the Spend on Trend website for more information.
