Canadian Style

I've been on a hunt for Canadian fashion blogs lately, just to see what people are thinking and so we can work together to give our local designers and fashion mavens a boost, watch trends in our cities and commiserate over the unfortunate fact that we get the best international fashion mags (if we get them at all) weeks later than the rest of the world. Sigh. Thank goodness for Foto Decadent.



Anyways, I recently had the pleasure of meeting the lovely Terri, who keeps a fantastic Vancouver based fashion blog called The Conveyor Belt, which I will be watching with interest as she posts on Vancouver Fashion Week (on now). She also recently launched a knitwear line called Larry - gorgeous, soft pieces like the one above, knit with locally produced fibers. If you're in Van, you can find her at Portobello West.



A couple of my fellow Canadian wardrobe_remixer's eyeliah and doozywhoop keep pretty awesome blogs too. Hailey (aka eyeliah), shows off her superb and classy personal style at Style Symmetry. That's her above this paragraph - love the ANTM pose! Doozy's thought provoking fashion blog is Aesthetique, and she is a Queen of the cute pose. See:

I've also been enjoying The Vancouverista. When I first came across her blog I was just jealous that I hadn't come up with that name first, but I got over that and got into her rock and roll sensibilities.



And this probably goes without saying, but The Commodified, a Vancouver street style blog, is also a favorite to scan. A couple recent cool snaps:





You can find links to all of these blogs in the Canadian Inspiration section of my blogroll. This is the 'local edition' but I'm looking for more Canada-wide, so if you're out there, tell me.
