Fashion and cows.







The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair takes place every November in Toronto. It is one of the largest in the world and definitely the most famous and proudly celebrated here in Canada where Canadian and international breeders, growers and exhibitors rub shoulders with thousands of visitors and where one doesn't need to try hard to find something interesting and have fun.

Well I had a chance to visit this year's fair right after his Royal highness, Prince Charles and his darling Camilla have officially opened it...and let me tell you... among all those daily horse shows, superdog shows and cattle auctions, there were so many fashion stands with hundreds of uniquely displayed items for any occasion, from riding boots and jackets to some psychedelic sweaters and hats.

So just out of curiosity, I took some pictures to share with you. Love.

Why are Stylish Girl and Cool Guy good? Ask Maria Ogneva

Hi,

Checking the stylishandcool twitter the other day I noticed a direct message from Maria, with a few words of intro and a link. I thought, yeah, lets see what's this about. I clicked on the link and landed on her blog 'Social Silk' where she comments on fashion, art, business, social media and other subjects.

The page opened on a topic talking about iPhone Fashion applications so I scrolled the page down and as I expected, Stylish Girl and Cool Guy were there, with some screen shots...all well organized and displayed.

I was happy that Maria had expressed interest in Stylish Girl and Cool Guy in her blog but honestly, I didn't expect to find an interesting and relevant analysis about the current fashion apps, pointing on their strengths and weaknesses with a valid support and a word of explanation for each of them.

So thanks Maria Ogneva (that would be "fire' in English and definitely suits your style) and once again ( I did it twice already) thanks for your time and the interest expressed in Stylish Girl and Cool Guy...and wherever you are (I think I saw Moscow), have a great time and continue commenting with the same passion.

And if anyone wants to read the article or get to know Maria's style better, here's the link I was talking about.
Have fun.

Stylish Girl in Apple's TV commercial

It's a lovely sunny November day here in Toronto. I am sure everyone is loving it. We even feel some heat here even though it's hardly 6 degrees above zero. Must be that we are just exited because Stylish Girl is now featured in one of the Apple's commercials.

Apple guys saw Stylish Girl as a successful fusion of new technology and fashion and decided to feature the app in their well known campaign "There's an app for everything". The campaign airs in China for two days already and later continues to Japan, Australia, then west to Europe and across the Atlantic.
The spot can also be found on the Chinese Apple's web site. Take a look and have fun.
