Motel Clothing and Motel Dresses! Check out Karmaloop
for the hottest Motel clothing sale and Motel dress sale
Motel clothing, especially Motel dresses are so hot! Motel dresses are some of the sexiest dresses ever and Motel clothing has such unique design structure that I can’t believe I didn’t know about the line sooner. You know one of my favourite things to do is creep clothing websites to find the best deals. I was checking out Karmaloop, which is one of the best in my opinion and I saw a Motel dress. The motel dress was red with black detailing on the shoulder and as soon as I saw it, I knew that I would be a fan of Motel dresses and Motel clothing for life.
Unfortunately the Motel dress that I saw was not on sale but the Motel clothing sale at Karmaloop features lots of Motel dresses and Motel clothing that are on sale. Motel clothing, a line from the UK is full of vintage inspired Motel dresses that are chic and unique so I strongly suggest you take advantage of the Motel clothing sale if you like the line as much as I do. What I like about the Motel clothing line is that the designs are distinctive but each motel dress seems to have its own personality. It’s as if the pieces featured in the Motel clothing sale and Motel dress sale are one of-a-kind designs that were created with a specific person in mind.
Motel dresses have a youthful freshness but the line of motel clothing reminds me of the sophisticated party girl. Motel clothing seems to be perfect for the girl who wants to party but you won’t have to baby sit her at the end of the night. Motel clothing is for the girl with distinctive style who wants to stand out from the crowd. Motel clothing also consists of pants, sweaters and skirts (also on sale at Karmaloop) but I think the line of Motel dresses is the most impressive. Motel dresses make you want to dress up and go out to a nice lounge and sip wine all night. The pieces featured in the Motel clothing sale and Motel dress sale successfully blend modern style with fun and whimsy and the best thing about a Motel clothing sale is that you can find pieces that are versatile and wearable.
The other thing that’s awesome about this particular Motel clothing sale and Motel dress sale is that the pieces featured are some of the brands coolest items. The Motel clothing sale at Karmaloop is full of amazing pieces so you don’t have to limit yourself. In fact the Motel clothing sale is so good that you may be able to grab some Motel clothing or Motel dresses at full price. Happy shopping! Hope you like them as much as I do.
Dereon Dresses and Beyonce Dresses: Hotter than poppin’ basement party with no AC
Dereon dresses and Beyonce dresses have that sexy look that is perfect for a steamy club night in the city. Dereon dresses are hot… What else can be said about a line that has me on its website almost every day looking for sales? Beyonce dresses really capture the stylish yet sultry look that youthful fashionistas love to rock.
Dereon dresses are also really versatile. You can wear a Beyonce dress to a casual affair by day and simply change into that pair of heels you have in your trunk when you’re ready to head to the club. If you’re like me, you will also have a random pair of earrings in your purse that you can pair with your Dereon dress to complete the look.
House of Dereon dresses are perfect for when you’re going somewhere that is going to be hot and clubs usually are. Dereon dresses and Beyonce dresses are usually short and made of cool materials that won’t wilt when you shake your thang on the dance-floor. Longer House of Dereon dresses and Beyonce dresses have some flow and are light and breezy.
I hate having to wear a giant coat to the club but the great thing about House of Dereon dresses is that they are light enough to slide under your coat without ruining your winter look and once you’ve hit the coat check, your Beyonce dress will still look cool and sexy. Let’s face it, it might be winter outside but it’s always summer in a crowded club. A dainty Dereon dress will keep you comfortable as you enjoy your evening.
Yes, I have done the research. Beyonce dresses have a minimal amount of spandex so when you wear a Dereon dress, it hugs your body to show off your curves but not so much that you’re sweating like a NYC construction worker in August.
Thankfully for us Dereon dresses and Beyonce dresses are on sale now! It seems like lots of these House of Dereon Dresses are leftover summer stock but as I said, it’s always summer in the club.
When I began the school year, it was my goal to work for Winners.
I love Winners.
It’s exhilarating to dig through piles of discounted designer clothing and find a sleek Michael Kors purse or a Guess blouse at a phenomenal price. I have always loved that kind of shopping and have spent hours at Winners perfecting the art. I embody the Winners brand, which is about affordable luxury so I thought Winners is the type of company I should work for.
Then I did a project on Winners. I discovered that Winners is owned by TJX, which is the same company that owns TJ Maxx, Marshals and HomeGoods. They also own HomeSense in Canada.
I quickly discovered that if I worked for Winners, I wouldn’t be organizing elaborate fashion shows or looking at clothing samples all day. I would be writing about stock prices and sales reports. TJX is a huge, publicly traded company. Its shareholders and stakeholders are their main audiences, not the 25 year old woman who just bought a discounted pair of L.A.M.B. shoes. She is definitely a target market but most of TJX’s communications efforts are simply not aimed at her.
Around the same time, I attended a promotional event by Virgin Mobile. Virgin mobile is in the business of cell phones and although I have a smart phone, I never thought that I would want to work for a technology based company. The promo event was a huge musical showcase in the middle of Dundas Square in Toronto. They had bands and other cool stuff that seemed totally in line with the Virgin brand. I remember thinking, “I could put on this kind of event. I could work for this company.”
Realizing the difference between the company and the company’s communications strategy is the most important thing I learned this year. It may not seem too cool to work for a company like Gillett, until you realize how many razors end up in gift bags at fashion shows. Working for the LCBO may seem like a government job until you get to throw wine and cheese parties or write recipes for how to use Jalapeño Vodka.
Centennial’s corporate communications and PR program taught me that it’s about the Brand. The company itself may sell clothes, but how do they sell the fact that they sell clothes? How do they push themselves? I learned that my role as a communicator is to help companies sell their brand, not their product. Years ago, I spoke to a PR professional who told me that PR people don’t paint the house; we tell everyone that the house has a great new paint job.
Centennial College’s PR program gave me a full understanding of what that means.
It’s been over a month since John Galliano’s devastating anti-Semitic debacle.
When the story broke it was embarrassingly clear that he had screwed up but it was in the days that followed that the fashion world began to realize exactly why the incident was so detrimental.
If timing is the essence of good PR, the John Galliano episode is a case study in bad timing.
Bad timing made John Galliano’s public stupidity even stupider.
From a public relations perspective the John Galliano/Dior incident serves as a wake-up call for public figures living in the age of citizen journalism. Everyone has a visual recording device so don’t say anything in public that you wouldn’t want on the cover of the New York Times.
Former Dior Designer John Galliano
Citizen journalism is much more detrimental than traditional journalism. This explains why Charlie Sheen can make slightly anti-Semitic comments on a radio show and have millions of followers on Twitter the following week.
He knowingly made the comments public and feels he has a legitimate beef with Two and a Half Men creator Chuck Lorre.
John Galliano was unknowingly caught on video, making comments that are undeniably anti-Semitic and has no beef with his victims at all. He says that he was provoked but that part wasn’t immortalized. In the world of new media, if it wasn’t caught on video, it’s as though it didn’t happen. The world concluded that Galliano hates Jews, even if he doesn’t.
The story broke days before a major Dior fashion show in Paris. The show had to be cancelled.
It also happened days before Natalie Portman, the acting Dior spokesperson was supposed to wear a Dior gown to the Oscars. She did not wear a Dior gown and later stepped down as spokesperson.
Dior must have lost millions due to the fact that the incident occurred days before these two events (bad timing) and the company wasn’t going to risk losing more money and its good reputation by not springing into action. Dior hired crisis communications company Kekst, who must have advised them to fire Galliano.
Dior’s reputation is intact and despite the fact that several fashion industry insiders have defended Galliano, his reputation has been damaged.
What does the future hold for Galliano? Thankfully, the advantage of new media is that it has made the public’s memory very short. The incident will drift away into a sea of forgotten scandals and hopefully the world will not be deprived of Galliano’s breath-taking designs.
If Kanye can recover, anything is possible.
Last month I got an email from Allison Wonderland’s publicist Nicole Stewart of Nicole Stewart PR. I thought it was a great example of an online fashion press release because it was extremely easy to use and a pleasure to look at.
Firstly, the press release was in the content of the email, along with four pictures that were formatted to a standard blogging size. It was so simple to place them directly into my blog. I didn’t have to download a thing.
I’m pretty sure she formatted the pictures in photoshop and then copied and pasted them into the email. I was so inspired by the formatting of the email that I composed a similar email for my good friend Melanie Thompson, founder of Adala Clothing.
I also wrote a post about Allison Wonderland because Nicole Stewart made it so easy.
The press release’s success can be attributed to the fact that it was formatted to be eye-catching, it was simple to read and use and above all, it was personal. You could tell that Nicole actually took the time to read my blog and tailor the press release to a fashion blogger like me.
Here are some more Allison Wonderland pics. The line is pretty dope, can’t wait to rock it this summer

Earlier this month I decided it was time to update my WordPress. It hadn’t been updated for a while because the older versions of WordPress didn’t have auto updates and my blog has been around for 3 years. Fine… Sounds like a good idea right? When you consider all the cool things you can do with the new version of WordPress, updating it seems like the best thing to do, correct????? Sure….Absolutely.
My web guy, who is also my fiancé, said he would do it for me because he is the one who set up the blog many moons ago and he is also responsible for the design and layout of the entire site. Because the updates were not automatic and because the new version uses a different version of php, my fiancé had to update my blog to the newest version of the data base.
Basically this caused nothing but head-aches and furrowing of brows. Because my site was set up in a way that satisfied my needs three years ago and because….AHHHH, this is getting hard to explain and honestly I don’t know how to say it in non-computer speak.
Everything got jacked-the- F- up. All my posts are gone.
Hence the blog title: Fresh Start For thisisu.com.
Thankfully, I still have all my photos and my content. It’s just they are not formatted as posts anymore. (Backing up rules!)
This is a great opportunity to properly optimize my site and set it up as simply as possible so this doesn’t happen again. It’s also an opportunity for me to revisit past photos and share them with the world again. It’s not really a loss. It’s just a little obstacle in my online journey.
Here are some photos from the past.
Enjoy!
Can’t believe how OLD these are!!!!!!!!!!!!
