JUNOs and Fashion and Cocktails, Oh My!

One day I came home from work and was traumatized to find my favourite sweater, a beautiful wraparound burgundy cardigan from RW&CO, shrunk to a Chihuahua's size. So I was more than excited to receive an invitation to preview the new RW&CO summer line at a pre-JUNOS cocktail party at the RW&CO celebrity outfitting suite at the Westin hotel.

I love attending fashion events, especially with people who are not afraid to take fashion risks. We saw 5" heels, transparent harem pants, startling combinations of colours and patterns, and skirts so short I was confused as to whether they should have another name. The people-watching was as delicious on my fashion palate as was the checking out of the summer collection pieces.

I was pleased about how wearable the men's collection looked. The colours were muted but not so pastel that the pickier men would deem them too "feminine." I really appreciated how much colour was in the collection, too - most men I know are notorious for wearing grey as a "colour."

The only vexing part to me, as an avid online shopper, is how limited the RW&CO website is. I suppose it's designed to give you a sneak peek of what you can find in the store, but I love to browse through my favourite online shops on my lunch breaks, and, even more so when I can pop over to the mall on my way home from work and get exactly what I'm looking for. Nonetheless, I am, as always, excited to hit the store and see what I can see.
