Bag Borrow Or Steal

The company, Bag Borrow Or Steal, was featured prominently in Sex and The City (the movie). I love the idea of renting designer bags, jewels and sunglasses because I get bored of things quickly. It's also a cost-effective way to accessorize a big night out without blowing your budget.

Bag Borrow or Steal is a cool alternative to buying grossly overpriced designer bags. It's also the solution for those of us who's attention spans are short. I don't want to pay big bucks for a bag I'll tire of within the month. Also, many bags are simply unavailable to purchase. Bag Borrow or Steal means an exclusive bag can be enjoyed by a greater number of fashionistas.

Sadly, Canadians are unable to participate in BBorS at this time. Let's lobby them. I've already started pestering.

Sex And The Sappy

Went to see the Sex And The City movie last Saturday. So much fun! It was a private screening to benefit Inn From The Cold, a Calgary organization that provides housing for those in need.

It was a well organized event with breakfast goodie bags, free champagne and a raffle featuring fabulous items including these red patent Marc Jacobs shoes. I'm recently obsessed with red patent shoes, thanks to my sister Robin.

Back to the movie. I'm ashamed to admit I shed tears throughout the (very long) movie. Yes, sometimes it was the sight of equally gorgeous and unattainable fashion. Mostly, it was due to the emotional trials portrayed by the women on screen. We all agreed afterward that the women in our lives are the glue holding the pieces together.
