Your my Obsession: Fashion Television celebrates it's 25th Anniversary!

For any Canadian fashionista, you are familiar with the '80's pop song 'Obsession' for it signifies non other than the legendary Canadian and longest running fashion show, Fashion Television. For years we have all enjoyed seeing Jeanne Beker make her way backstage between the most high profile haute couture shows and land the most coveted interviews.

Now, the show is celebrating it's silver anniversary with a momentous birthday bash to be held at CTV's downtown location at the famous Queen and John. Along with the soiree is to be the release of a commemorative magazine that documents the pinnacle and memorable moments of Fashion Television throughout their 25 stylish years.

Now if your invitation to the fashionable and fabulous gets lost in the mail, do not fret my friend because it will all be televised on CTV on September 12th, 2010 at 7pm.

Enjoy!

Old book + Fabric - Pages = Pocket Books by Noelle Hamlyn

Have you ever been in search of the perfect book bag? Well, look no further because pocket books are here.

Created by textile artist, Noelle Hamlyn pocket books are small handbags created by vintage books. After removing the pages of household books such as Beatrix Potter's Peter Rabbit and Tin Tin, Noelle replaces the pages with vintage fabrics linings and recycled belt straps that are used as handles.

Each fabric lining is specially chosen to fit the feeling of each book and the belt straps convert from over-the-shoulder to across the chest. These bags are the perfect accessory for a night at the movies or a visit to the museum. If you are interested in learning more about Hamlyn's unique purses, visit her website at http://www.noellehamlyn.com/.
