Twasthenight @TheCore

The biggest private shopping event that Calgary has ever seen was a raging success last night, complete with Lainey Lui of LaineyGossip.com and ETalk on the red carpet and throngs of stylists, bloggers, fashionistas and shoppers swarming the many levels of downtown shopping mecca, The Core.

This special event kicked-off Hollywood style, with a red carpet hosted by Lui. As the crowds entered the mall, they were met by music, food, and of course, a lot of shopping! Chantal Kreviazuk was there, as was her power house voice and an endless sampling of holiday inspired drinks and treats to keep guests well fueled.

My street style stalking was made very easy on this festive occasion, as beautifully dressed Calgarians really embraced the concept of the event and turned it out. Now for my Christmas wish…to have many more special nights like this one in our home town!

Since not all of the images that I submitted made it into the Swerve piece, here a few additional images and those that you've perhaps already seen. Great to see a few familiar faces, and so lovely meeting and photographing a few new ones too!
