As a life-long jewelry lover (and serious) bracelet fan, I couldn’t be more excited to be a part of the launch of the new men’s collection by Dean Davidson. Trust me – it’s going to be HUGE. A celebrated designer, Dean has been designing women’s jewelry for over 10 years. The idea to do a men’s collection has been in planning stages for some time and as you’ll see, it was well worth the wait. Modern, masculine and well formed – this is a jewelry collection stylish guys are going to love.  Continue reading “Dean Davidson’s Dapper New Men’s Collection” →

Top Model Julia Dunstall in new spring campaign for Dean Davidson

One of the best parts of working for Dean Davidson (a growing Canadian jewelry company), is the chance to work on many cool projects. And one of my favourites is being involved in shooting the new campaigns. It’s fun – and you feel fancy, in a behind-the-scenes kind of way. As Dean’s brand continues to grow, this season’s new campaign was designed to represent the elevation of his brand and how the line, which began in 2007, is entering a new era.  Continue reading “Julia Dunstall Returns to Modeling in New Dean Davidson Campaign” →

I’m a lucky guy because this list includes many items from some amazingly talented friends whose work I not only love and appreciate, I believe in.  Continue reading “2015 Fancy Holiday Gift Guide” →

Holt Renfrew Kicks Off Calgary Stampede With Holts Hats Off

Holts Hats Off
Some of the chic Stampede looks on the magenta runway for the western-inspired fashion show.

In anticipation of this year’s Calgary Stampede, Holt Renfrew recently held its second annual Holts Hats Off event by teaming up with a super impressive group of talented Canadian designers to benefit the Calgary Health Trust. Designers, including Anzie, my good buddy Dean Davidson, Mackage, Tanya Taylor (who’s so lovely and now based in NYC), Ron White, Naked & Famous and Marie Saint Pierre, created one-of-a-kind Smithbilt cowboy hats to be auctioned during the private charity shopping event. This year, the live auction was hosted by Etalk’s Ben Mulroney, who charmed the crowd and helped raise a considerable amount for charity.  Continue reading “Holt Renfrew Kicks Off Calgary Stampede With Holts Hats Off” →

If you haven’t been to Calgary’s Holt Renfrew yet this holiday season, make sure to check it out – you definitely won’t be disappointed. The store is decorated beautifully and the window displays are incredible. There’s also live Christmas music on Saturdays and they have a huge selection of seasonal gifts, including toys, goodies and decorations, not to mention the best selection of luxury and contemporary designers in the city (but you already know that). And to help celebrate the holiday season with style – and raise money for an important cause – Holts is having a unique silent auction to benefit the Alberta Children’s Hospital.  Continue reading “Holidays At Holts And The Designer Deer Charity Auction” →
