A look back in time...

I just found this photo the other day while cleaning out some old boxes. It is a photo of me from grade 11 when I coordinated the Deja Vu Vintage Fashion Show in support of the Calgary Emergency Women's Shelter. I donated a great chunk of my vintage clothing collection towards this fashion show, recruited a fashion designer to show some modern looks, and got hair stylists and make-up artists to do up the models. I auctioned off all of the vintage clothing and ended up donating over $500 to the shelter. It so exciting to see how far I have come since my high school fashion show days.
