A local mall will bring fashion experts together online to dish out the best summer fashion advice.
For each week in June, Coquitlam Centre's blog will offer top tips for wearing this season's hottest trends. In addition to Catherine Dunwoody - fashion and beauty editor, celebrity-stylist and TV style expert, the shopping centre will also be hosting four local fashion bloggers who will be offering up their own summer fashion advice every day each week.
"We're excited to help women navigate through this summer's trends with this new campaign," says Deborah Stetz, marketing director of Coquitlam Centre. "With fresh tips added daily from Coquitlam Centre including our resident style expert Catherine Dunwoody and the top fashion bloggers in the city, you'll be making your mark on the Vancouver scene in no time."
One trend Coquitlam Centre stylists suggest stocking up on is floral print everything. Nothing says summer is here quite like a floral maxi dress or soft floral blouse from Gap or Aritzia. White is also white hot this season, so try it out with a sweet white lace dress or be the belle of the boardroom in a chic white blazer. The must have shoes for summer are undoubtedly wedge sandals, which look great with dresses, skirts and shorts. Check out Aldo Shoes to find the right style for you.
Joining Coquitlam Centre's quest to make dressing for summer a breeze are fashion experts: Rebecca Tay, managing editor of Aritzia.com; Sunny Shum of Partly Sunny; Heidi Hofstad, former managing editor of The Style Spy and current fashion writer for VerveGirl; and Carly Yackimec, an up-and-coming fashion blogger. Look out for Carly on Mondays, Coquitlam Centre's Catherine Dunwoody on Tuesdays, Sunny on Wednesdays, Rebecca on Thursdays and Heidi on Fridays at www.coquitlamcentre.com/blog
The public is invited to also give back some love to these style experts by voting for who they believe is the best blogger throughout the month, readers can go online and vote for their favorite fashion expert, at www.facebook.com/coquitlamcentre
