According to the press release I was sent by BC Book and Magazine Week, British Columbians are among the world’s most avid book consumers and spend far more leisure time reading than is the case in any other part of the country. Spend the week of April 18th to 25th checking out the various events put on by BC Book and Magazine Week.

It’s that time of the year again. And with a website name like “Modern Mix Vancouver”, it’s only appropriate that we cover the 9th annual Vancouver Fashion Week, which takes place at Storyeum. The opening gala last night at Leone (757 West Hastings Street) featured a melange of fashionable designers, models, media and photographers.
A widespread range of chocolates by Daniel was available for sampling, wine was served in the back corner of the spacious venue, and jewelry and accessories were displayed on glass counter tops as members of the fashion industry mingled and networked throughout the evening. Keep on reading for show schedules, designer highlights, a photography gallery as well as a discount coupon for VFW.
