Evan Biddell’s “End of the Decade” Sale in Downtown Toronto

While most of my friends are probably having a turkey feast of some sort, I decided to get ahead on the shopping frenzy. Checking out my Twitter feeds, I noticed that there was a sale not to be missed that was going on. Over at Chasse Gardée, Project Runway Canada Evan Biddell held a sale (dubbed “End of the Decade”) featuring a collection comprised of his favorite fabrics over the last ten years.

I didn’t have the intention of being early, but it turned out that I walk a lot faster than I thought. The pieces were well made and were fantastic designs (including some of this past season’s pieces in case you were dying to get them but didn’t have a chance), and both Daniella and Evan were great. Turns out that Evan remembers my eagerness of meeting him way back in June when he was having brunch at School Bakery, which is always cute of someone.

My steal for the day? I managed up a one-sleeved hooded dress made from bamboo for only $80 (I know many of you are gawking at me and telling me that I’m crazy to think that’s a steal), but the workmanship is superb. The neckline and detailing works well so that I don’t have to be wearing jewelry to make up for the empty chest area. And it’s made out of bamboo – wicks and insulates well, lightweight, and sits great on the body.

Great job on the sale today guys!
