Roses By… Lancôme Canada Exhibit at Luminato!

Last night was the launch party for the ’Rôses by…20 artists for a rose’ Exhibition for Luminato, happening at First Canadian Place. Like I said in a previous blog post, it features 20 world-renowned photographers and their interpretation of the iconic Lancôme rose.

Here are some snapshots of the night:

Last but not least, by one of my personal favourite photographers, Patrick Demarchelier.

Some photobooth fun with @KBDS + @LaisieTu – I was so happy to see these girls!

The second Lancome exhibit is 20 Bloggers for a Rose featuring 20 of Canada’s top Lifestyle + Beauty bloggers (including me! Weee!) You can access the virtual gallery at David Pecault Square by downloading the app.

I thought I’d share my photo with you + my inspiration behind the rose.

“To me, the rose represents life. It can be beautiful and epic, but only when you acknowledge, accept and learn from the thorns.”
