Canada Fashion

Whistle for Whistler

I have just spent two weeks in the picturesque Whistler, Canada. I have now been going for so many years, I could technically get citizenship. I cannot put into words how much I love this awesome country, from the fast paced Ice Hockey, to the insane skiing opportunities.
Ski season is almost over but after two weeks of flirting, laughing and point blank staring I think I have found the fashions, according to the Canadians for next year.

1. A Beard.

Think Mumford and Sons, think lumberjack, think real men.

In all seriousness, beards were in. Maybe its because its the end of the season, and the gap year's can't afford razors? In the clubs or on the slopes, men were rocking these giant bushy beards, and I have to admit I kind of liked it.

If God hasn't given you the genes to rock out the beard I am your beardy-god mother...

Check out these bad boys, not only will you get looked at on the slopes, your face will stay warm. Averaging at £20 they're quite a good gift for your other half.  http://www.beardhead.com/

2. Tight Pants

Gone are the days where you would be skiing behind a snowboarder who had his pants by his knees, while you checked out his pert bum and giggled when he fell over at chairlifts. Its now all about the tight, streamline effect. Neon colours are still in though, which is always good in crap visibility. 

Check out all the main brands to see this new trend, Animal has some good ones for men as does Quicksilver. For girls check out Animal, they are rocking out some sweet prints.

3. Love Your Team

Canucks, Oilers? In Canada you don't just support your team. You love your team. You wear the jersey over your ski stuff, and you pretend, you pretend you are the top of your sporting game. You also give evils to other teams, and maybe push them on the slope...I definitely did not do this.

4. NEON

Honey Neon is everywhere! You have to wear goggles just to hide the blinding brightness of people's pants and jackets. It's like someone spilt a box of highlighters over all the material that would make ski wear and went, "yea, alright. That can be the fashion'. Doesn't match? Even better, think contrasting, clashing colour but make them bright. This fashion won't escape you when you get off the slopes either. This was me in a nightclub that went neon. 

Ok kudos, it looks good- even if that is my face. Also it was a bitch to get off, but whatever I was going for it. 

Next blog will be on the food and alcohol, so much alcohol I consumed over there, it rocked. They have salmon better than sex!
