If you read this blog regularly, you know that I'm the furthest thing from a fashion snob.  Still, when it comes to stepping through the doors of Sears, I've always dragged my heels.  Though it's tough to change people's perceptions (especially fashion people), ATTITUDE is making me reconsider the store.  And, the ATTITUDE show has become one of the most coveted tickets of LG Fashion Week, especially since Jay Manuel took creative control of the brand.

Wednesday's show was packed with modern gypset looks, with tonnes of resort wear in punchy colours and prints, off-set by bold, graphic black & white looks.  The styling, not surprisingly, was what really made the clothes shine.  Yasmin Warsame & co. showed them off to their best potential, too.  But when it comes right down to it, will the clothes really be as great under the harsh fluorescent lights of Sears?  Hoping so... 

Here are some of my fave looks from the show.  I LOVE the white shirt with the pink pants.  Pretty!  What do you think? 

P.S - Check back next week for a full recap of Toronto's LG Fashion Week.  I've got behind-the-curtain pics, the latest fashion crowd favourites and, of course, a fun giveaway.  Happy weekend!  xo
