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!
Lol I really want that jersey too! it's so typically Canadian, with the moose pattern xD
ReplyDeleteIt'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!
Enjoy the games sweetie, GO CANADA GO!!! ahaha I should really go support my home team too T.T but we have only 2 athletes xD
Lol ya I cheer between Canada and Japan ahah!

Thanks for your comment! Unfortunately I'm not located in Vancouver..I'm in Toronto :( I would LOVE to live in Vancouver - It's such a beautiful place to live!
ReplyDeleteSo with that said..I'm watching the Olympics from my tv at home haha ^^
i was at zellers the other day and the whole section with the olympics stuff was so crowded! i really wanted the hoodie in black, but it was sold out. so i checked out the bay & they didn't have it either. i ended up buying a white tshirt that says canada in red. ^_^ btw, nice nailpolish!
