Goodnight Sweetheart, Well It's Time To Go....



5 years ago, I took a chance with Fashion Crimes.  I had full intentions of turning down the job, but thanks to the genius coaxing of the FC manager at the time I took the job, and my life subsequently changed.  I started wearing dresses EVERY DAY (and probably always will), I worked alongside so many strong women who I now consider family, and working on Queen Street West made this small town Newfie feel like an honorary Torontonian.  Today, December 7th, is my last day at Fashion Crimes, and thus my final blog post.  I can’t begin to express the gratitude and love I have for this amazingly beautiful dress utopia.  All I can say is thank you.  

Here I am on Signal Hill in St. John's, NL striking a pose with a few innocent bystanders.  I am wearing a black 6 way dress with a fabulous blue feather flower fascinator from Fashion Crimes.  I was a brides maid for a great friend who appreciates great style!


You haven’t seen the last of me! Regardless of where I work, I will always be an avid Fashion Crimes shopper.  See you around!  Peace!!

A Look Back At Prom 2012

Fellow fashionista Kyelah DesVignes was kind enough to pass on some pictures of her prom, as well as her 16th birthday.  For both events Kyelah looked gorgeous in Fashion Crimes dresses:


Here is the birthday girl in a Fashion Crimes brown and turquoise "tullefection" dress.  These dresses were certainly a hot commodity a few years back, and now we have similar dresses in a huge array of colour combinations.  We still carry the elegant two tone sequin tops, while some of our newer versions have a corseted top with either gems or sequins (or both!).  Birthdays are a very special time, it only makes sense to wear a special dress that makes you look and feel fabulous!



Fast forward a year or two to Prom 2012!!  Kyelah is completely rocking a gem encrusted, tulle skirt Sherri Hill dress she found at Fashion Crimes.  We absolutely love this young lady's style: the hair, those amazing shoes, and her choice of subtle accessories that doesn't take the main focal point off the dress make this look show stopping.  Fantastic job!

Ladies!  Getting pumped for Prom 2013??  Believe me, it won't be long before you find yourself on the hunt for the perfect dress....we already have some gals starting to trickle in, and as per the norm, we register each dress so no one else at your school will be your carbon copy!  See you soon!
