Vancouver Design Week Launch Party at Alley Oop, West Hastings and Granville

What a fabulous way to start a weekend and to salute Vancouver Design Week! Where else but in an alley, but one so bright with pink, yellow, white and green balloons, murals, messages from us - our thoughts about Design, written fast and taped right up, and my favorite, a whimsical hopscotch game printed on the laneway, perfect for trying out again. This was a vibrant crowd, enthusiastic and excited, despite the wind and rain. Dressed up, texting and taking photos and loving the Beer and Food Truck treats! Thanks, Vancouver Design Week, more please!

I loved the transformation of the alley at West Hastings and Granville. Such a view of iconic buildings and a look at vibrant blue sky, in contrast with the grey and white of new and old buildings and the pink balloons and painted roadway. To celebrate color and variety, I wore a jacket by local First Nation Designer, Chloe Angus, orange and blue shoes by John Fluevog and a necklace by Caroline Bruce. Local style, you know.
