WHO: Kathleen Pirrie Adams, Kodak Lecture Series coordinator
WHEN: Wednesday morning
WHERE: Centre for Computing and Engineering at Ryerson University
CLOTHING: “My friend gave me this jacket – it’s by local designers Dagg & Stacey. You can get some of their clothes at Fresh Collective (692 Queen West, 416-594-1313). I bought my house-brand shirt on sale at Holt Renfrew (50 Bloor West, 416-922-2333), and the necklace ($48) at the One Of A Kind Show. It’s made by Buttercup Days. I stole the jeans from my girlfriend, Lisa, who got them in Montreal a few years ago – thanks, hon! The belt was a Christmas gift. My lady boots are from Heel Boy ($150, 682 Queen West, 416-362-4335). They have treats and water for your dog out front. Isn’t that cool? Freitag makes these great bags from recycled seatbelts, tarps and inner tubes. I got this one from my friend Kate, who sells them at her store InAbstracto ($185, 1160 Queen West, 416-533-6362). I got my Nixon watch in New York. The inscription claims, No other watch is closer to the truth.’ I guess that’s postmodern marketing for you….”
HAIR: “June Croken at Wax Hairdressing (388 Richmond West, 416-260-1668) cuts it, and I colour it myself.”
STYLE: “Music For Mechanics.”
INTO: “Collecting Expo 67 paraphernalia worrying about a so-called family values future postering for the Kodak lecture on Friday (January 27) by photo and video artist Fiona Tan and getting things ready for the webcast of her lecture (www.ryersonlectures.ca).”
