Fashion Has no Borders ™ FHNB Fashion & Accessory Exposé ™:  November 18th and 19th  

A multifaceted fashion exhibition will take over the Roundup Centre in Calgary this November, bringing together students, and fashion industry experts as well as both high-profile and Canadian retailers. 

Fashion Has No Borders ™ President Sharon Cornwall is excited to bring the Fashion & Accessory Exposé ™ to Calgary after a successful run in Toronto. This new and innovative show will provide retailers with the chance to further develop their reputation as respected members of the industry, as well as present entertainment and promote fashion industry education by connecting business leaders with emerging talent.

 “The show will launch and link Canada’s up-and-coming designer superstars with many of our Nation’s quality local source manufacturers, all in support of an industry that is a crucial mainstay of our diversified economy,” said City of Calgary Mayor Dave Bronconnier, “Thousands right here in Calgary are employed in fashion design, manufacturing and retailing. The Fashion Has No Borders™: Fashion & Accessory Exposé™ is their showcase, a chance to prove how very, very good they are.”

 Fashion students will have the chance to come and showcase their designs and creations on the runway, and future beauty school students will be able to gain more insight into the colourful world of fashion by talking to industry experts about their experience. Young Calgarians will also have a chance to perform during the ‘Fashion Theatre’ portion of the runway show. Prizes and educational bursaries will be awarded during the exposé, including ‘Designer of the year’ and ‘fashion photographer of the year’.

 “Fashion Has No Borders™: Fashion & Accessory Exposé™ is a great opportunity for the Olds College fashion students to get exposure to the industry they are studying,” said Terry Males, Chair of the School of Business at Olds College. “In Western Canada the networking at ground level of the fashion industry is difficult to find.  There is no real resource that is easily accessible to young minds to discover the extent of how rewarding our industry can be.”

 The wide array of retailers at the exposé will be split into a handful of differing categories. Kiosks featuring vintages pieces, accessories, and sport and street-inspired fashion will each have their own “zones.” Additionally, there will be zones for higher profile designers, menswear, beauty products and personal wellness.

 So, for all the fashion lovers and future fashion entrepreneurs out there, get ready for the Fashion Has No Borders™ Fashion & Accessory Exposé™ happening on November 18th and 19th from 12 P.M. until 9 P.M. both days. Cost for entry is $9, or $5 for high school and beauty school students with ID. For more information visit http://www.fashionhasnoborders.com.

No matter how you look at it, there are some celebrations that will always call for a good bottle of wine.  At the same time, there is also something about a wedding or anniversary that demands something more personal than a routine label provided by the wine maker.  Today, you can enjoy choosing custom wedding wine labels that will suit every aspect of a wedding or anniversary celebration.  Even if you are not artistically inclined, you can choose from a wide range of themed labels, as well as sayings that will match the occasion.

Your Wedding Plans and Custom Wine Labels

When you are planning a wedding, there are an endless number of reasons why you might want to purchase wine with custom labels.  To begin, they will always be the perfect table compliment for your reception.  If you want to provide a special gift for the best man, maid of honor, or others deeply involved in the celebration, a custom bottle of wine is the perfect way to offer your gratitude.  As may be expected, you can always purchase a bottle of wine for your intended spouse that has a special quote or some other intimate message.

Gifts for the Bride and Groom

There will always be times when you are invited to weddings for friends of the family, or individuals that you may not know very well.  While you may be honored to be invited to these celebrations, you may not always know what to give to the bride and groom.  If you give gift cards, money, or house warming gifts, your gift will look very impersonal.  Even though the bride and groom will appreciate your thoughts, there are other ways to express your best wishes for them.  In particular, a bottle of wine with a custom label is sure to stand out from all the other gifts.  If you take the time to find out if the bride and groom favor a particular type of wine, you can easily purchase a bottle of it and then get a custom label.

Wedding Anniversaries

Regardless of whether or not you are celebrating your silver wedding anniversary, each year spent together will always be special.  If you are planning on an anniversary vacation, or simply want to stay at home and celebrate quietly, a bottle of wedding wine with a custom label can easily fit into your plans.  Depending on your interests, you may even want to purchase a special gift basket that includes all kinds of extra goodies.  At the very least, when you choose a gift basket, you can always ask to have two or more bottles of wine included.

During the process of celebrating a wedding, or wedding anniversary, you are sure to want to include a special bottle of wine.  When you add a custom label, the bottle will be even more precious to the recipients.  With so many options available, you are sure to find a label, as well as a brand of wine that will suit your gifting needs perfectly.

When economic recession hits, it is not only the emotions that seem to go haywire but also the bank accounts of many. There will really come a time when you have to look for ways on how to meet your immediate needs. One of the best ways is to avail of a loan.

However, not all loans are considered to be cheap loans. Some of them can be very expensive, simply because you have to pay high interest rates. If you have very poor credit rating, you may also have to extend your mortgage to a very long time. This means that you will actually be spending more on your loan repayments.

Availing of UK Mortgage at Virgin Money

It is the goal of Virgin Money to offer products as well as services that will be very affordable and immediately availed by their clients. These include one-account Virgin mortgage, secured loans, and personal loans.

Virgin Mortgage. If you want to be more flexible with your mortgage repayments, you may want to choose this kind of mortgage. Virgin Money is currently working with One Account for that. There are a lot of ways on how you can reduce your loan costs. These include opening one account for both your salary and savings. Any amount that you are going to place there will be automatically deducted to your mortgage. This way, you can reduce your interest rates immediately. There is also no need for you to continuously monitor your mortgage repayments. You just need to deposit, and everything is already taken care of for you.

Personal Loan. Virgin Money works with Your Personal Loan to ensure that you can avail of a low APR loan. This is also an unsecured loan, which means you do not need to offer any collateral just to get your loan approved. The APR rate is at 7.8 percent, which is one of the lowest in the market these days. It will also be the same rate applied whether you are borrowing £5,000 or £25,000. You can also have more flexibility as to how long you want to repay your Virgin loans. You can have it in a year’s time or as long as 7 years. The processing of your application is very fast. This way, you will be able to use the funds immediately for your needs. The application form is right at their website.

Secured Loans. You can also get secured loans where you can avail of longer payment terms. In fact, the loan is payable for more than 25 years. The amount of cash that you can obtain is also very huge, as high as £100,000. All you need to do is to present anything that will act as your collateral. If you have built equity in your home, you can use your security for a secured personal loan. Annual percentage rates can also be between 7.3 and 17.1 percent. Normally, though, you will only get to pay 10.1 percent or even less than that.
