The PR DL
I’ve been super busy, for some apparent reason, and that has definitely effected my blogging. Though I try to write good content as often as possible, I’m constantly emailed by PR people trying to get their clients message across, and to be quite honest, many of the messages are really good. I, unfortunately, haven’t really had the time to fully research everything, but I’ve decided to give you, my fabulous readers, a chance to make the executive decisions for yourself. So, here are the deets from best of the best press releases I’ve received this week:
- Saturday, May 12th is Tax Free Day on Montana Ave. in Santa Monica, CA. They’re beyond excited, and if you’re in Cali, you should be too. If you’ve never scouted out Montana Ave. before, here’s a list of the stores you might want to blow a mint on: Café Luxxe, Planet Blue, Pinkberry, Jeany, Dermalogica, London Sole, Benefit, Shabby Chic, Platino, Leona Edimston, Savannah, Anat B, and Khiels. Need a reminder, print this out and post it on your fridge!
- Looking to buy some pretty, pretty jewelry to make you feel like a pretty, pretty princess? Good, because Tejani Jewelry has some of the most gorgeous handcrafted jewelry I’ve seen in a while. The pieces are chock full of jewels and would make any past-life harem girl swoon— ahem. My favorite piece out of the entire spring collection is the two tone pendant necklace with pink topaz, crystal, & glass. Tejani Jewelry is also looking out for all you bangle fanatics by offering a free bangle sizing kit so you don’t shell out and then realize you can’t get the bracelet over you’re hand—I hate when that happens!
- Street fashion has become enormously popular in today’s fashion communities. We look to these stalked fashion-forward individuals for inspiration and in awe. We also like to inspire and awe other people, thus the reason we have wardrobe blogs and style-sharing sites. There’s a new site called Votour.com, which tosses both street fashion and our fashions on one site, and we get to vote on them. Elle photographer, Peter Miszuk, takes street fashion pictures in his free time, and you are given the chance to judge and rate all the fabulously dress wanders he finds. You can also join their beta version and throw your wardrobe choices on there to get others opinions.
That’s it for now. Maybe if I feel like I’m neglecting the publicists next week, I’ll do this again.






















The votour site sounds pretty cool, thanks for the tip off. Really cool that Montana Ave is having a tax free day, wish we had one somewhere in Toronto.
Yeah, Votour really looks like an awesome site. I think once it gains a bit of popularity it will be great. As for the tax free day, they have something like this in Boston (I’m only about 2 hrs from it), but I haven’t ever gone. If I ever find out anything about a Tax Free Day in Toronto, I’ll be sure to let you know!
Thanks for the tips
You’re welcome Jackie!
