My version of a 91裸聊视频榗asual look91裸聊视频 isn91裸聊视频檛 sweatpants91裸聊视频攊t91裸聊视频檚 a flowy maxi dress and a hat!91裸聊视频 says Courtney as I meet her at the new, second location of Mine & Yours, which is currently under construction in Yaletown. I91裸聊视频檓 looking forward to chatting with the woman behind the luxury resale shop, and I start by asking her to describe her personal style.

91裸聊视频淚 definitely gravitate towards flowy dresses and wear them year round. I love all of the Misa and Zimmermann dresses that come into Mine & Yours91裸聊视频攊t91裸聊视频檚 hard for me to not take them all out for a spin! I love experimenting with colours and patterns, and styling with edgy bags.91裸聊视频

Backtracking a little, Courtney tells me about the path she took that led her to where she is today.

91裸聊视频淚 moved to Los Angeles to go to the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising. I loved LA and ended up staying there and working in many different aspects of the fashion industry, including styling, trend forecasting and wholesale.91裸聊视频

About 10 years ago Courtney moved back to Vancouver to take over the family business, which was a sawmill. She tells me, 91裸聊视频淎fter getting a taste for entrepreneurship, I knew I wanted to start a business in the fashion industry and I saw an opportunity in Vancouver for a luxury resale boutique. Luxury resale was gaining popularity in LA, but did not exist yet in Vancouver. I wanted to create a store that showcased designer deals, but that didn91裸聊视频檛 feel like a secondhand shop.91裸聊视频

And what does she love most about her work?

91裸聊视频淢y favourite part about the luxury resale business is getting to do at-home buying appointments with our suppliers. We refer to them as 91裸聊视频榗loset buys.91裸聊视频 Not only do I get amazing, designer pieces for Mine & Yours, but I also get to build closer relationships with my community. I also love helping clients find and purchase their first-ever luxury designer bag. It91裸聊视频檚 such a special moment that I91裸聊视频檓 very grateful to be a part of!91裸聊视频
