Hottest Ice Girls in the NHL

October 22nd, 2008 @ 1:51pm by Rebecca Bollwitt

Almost two years ago I wrote a silly post on Metroblogging about becoming a Canucks Ice Girl. This afternoon John sent me a link to a website, courtesy of his co-worker Cody, that lists off the “hottest” ice girls in the NHL. I kind of like the fact that Vancouver’s ice team is more utilitarian [...]

Fashion, Facials and Photography for a Cure

October 21st, 2008 @ 9:19am by Rebecca Bollwitt

Quick mini link fest post with some items of interest for the ladies (and the gents too). Local fashion designer Nicole Bridger has just launched online shopping for her collections. “We use fabrics that are from natural and renewable resources. We consider the impact that we have on the earth and do what we can [...]

Ladies Laptop Bags, the Hunt

October 18th, 2008 @ 5:29pm by Rebecca Bollwitt

Is it just me or are the only laptop bags available for women absolutely huge, or covered in silly retina-burning patterns? (I’ve found the same thing with iPhone cases as well). Last year when I was on the hunt for a new bag to suit my MacBook it took me ages to find something that [...]

VIFF Closing Gala Party – The Dress

October 11th, 2008 @ 12:40pm by Rebecca Bollwitt

The final day of the Vancouver International Film Festival was cause for celebration. Over the course of about two weeks, 140,000 people sat in on screenings, took part in discussions and enjoyed cinematic masterpieces from around the world. I’ll have a full report on the awards ceremony on E! early next week but since I [...]

Dress Me, Vancouver

October 8th, 2008 @ 4:15pm by Rebecca Bollwitt

Photo credit: Duane Storey on Flickr First off, I’m not naked as the title of this post may perhaps suggest. Secondly, this is an uncharacteristic post as I’m not going to talking history, hockey or about the latest Twitter applications. Admittedly, girlie matters are not my strong suit. I can only remember wearing a dress [...]

A Vancouver Girl's Guide to the iPhone Part 5

July 2nd, 2008 @ 10:04am by Rebecca Bollwitt

I figured I would let everyone else do the blogging about the iPhone 3G coming to Canada and all the Rogers hate going around so I’ll pick up my iPhone chatter while continuing my girlie series. I’ve been getting a lot of funny looks with my bedazzled iPhone, wrapped in a case I bought for [...]

A Vancouver Girl's Guide to the iPhone Part 4

May 30th, 2008 @ 10:23am by Rebecca Bollwitt

I haven’t touched on my Vancouver Girl iPhone series in a while but I figure with its presence in the movie last night, and the Apple Store opening last weekend, it was time for a revival. What makes this latest edition special? It’s a hybrid iPhone series AND Link Fest. – First off, a quick [...]

Sex and the City Movie Vancouver Premiere

May 29th, 2008 @ 9:33am by Rebecca Bollwitt

In all honesty, I saw the movie days ago thanks to the 24 Hours daily newspaper. Don’t worry as this post isn’t about spoilers or details (that one will hit the wires tomorrow), but I thought I would continue my current saucy mini series by highlighting this local girl’s view of Sex and the City [...]
