Olympics 2010 & NOTD

So as you all know the Olympics are being held in Canada this year. Starting last year, The Hudson's Bay Company has been airing this commercial with all the Olympic wear and I saw this one sweater that I have been wanting for the longest time. Every time I visited the Bay, it was sold out. I tried multiple locations - all sold out :(

One day, I got a call from my sister telling me that Zellers actually had some in stock! I ended up in Zellers and picked myself up this sweater and a pair of the mittens that you see everyone wearing on tv :)







The sweater is SUPER warm :) I bought the large size so I can wear it with some leggings and boots. It has CANADA written on the back, pretty simple


The mittens were $10 - proceeds go to support our Olympic athletes. As per Zellers' website, they have raised over $4 million with these mittens!

Are you following the Olympics? I hope you're all enjoying it so far and are able to see what Vancouver, Canada is all about^^


Colour is: Play Fair. It's a cute pink/purple colour^^. I was in a rush and didn't put on a top coat, but it has lasted for several days now - not bad, eh? (btw, I put on 2 coats)

..and...I apologize, I have to post some swatches and reviews.. >_<.. soon to come!

    It's impossible to get into the Official Olympic store tho, you have to wait in a queue and it goes out the door and around the corner of the street!
