CANADIAN BLAST SHOWCASE @ SXSW 2012
Canada Blast is a showcase of a heap of awesome Canadian bands from March 13-18th at SXSW in Austin. It kicked off yesterday with a BBQ at Brush Square.
View of downtown Austin from the Hilton across from the convention centre. Some team Canada friends were stayin’ here. Crazy to see how busy the streets were. Parties EVERYWHERE.

MasterCard Fashion Week: Chloé Comme Parris – FW 2012
Black pantsuits were de rigueur at the Chloé Comme Parris’ Fall/Winter 2012 show. If it wasn’t a pants suit, it was bauble-studded epaulettes on three quarter length black latex inspired bondage tops, beige sheer blouses (with more studs) or aggro trench coats worthy of any self-respecting trench coat mafia.
The second movement showed off their outerwear collection that accessorized with what was either mink, coyote , or some other Nordic animal’s pelt embedded as collars or as full-length, high-shouldered vests. The Celtic braided headdress style, combined with the edgy fairy-like gowns left more than a few fans wondering if the Chloé Comme Paris sisters (Chloe & Parris) might have spent a good time of the last year watching Game Of Thrones on repeat.
