My version of a 香蕉视频直播榗asual look香蕉视频直播� isn香蕉视频直播檛 sweatpants香蕉视频直播攊t香蕉视频直播檚 a flowy maxi dress and a hat!香蕉视频直播� says Courtney as I meet her at the new, second location of Mine & Yours, which is currently under construction in Yaletown. I香蕉视频直播檓 looking forward to chatting with the woman behind the luxury resale shop, and I start by asking her to describe her personal style.

香蕉视频直播淚 definitely gravitate towards flowy dresses and wear them year round. I love all of the Misa and Zimmermann dresses that come into Mine & Yours香蕉视频直播攊t香蕉视频直播檚 hard for me to not take them all out for a spin! I love experimenting with colours and patterns, and styling with edgy bags.香蕉视频直播�

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

香蕉视频直播淚 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.香蕉视频直播�

About 10 years ago Courtney moved back to Vancouver to take over the family business, which was a sawmill. She tells me, 香蕉视频直播淎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 didn香蕉视频直播檛 feel like a secondhand shop.香蕉视频直播�

And what does she love most about her work?

香蕉视频直播淢y favourite part about the luxury resale business is getting to do at-home buying appointments with our suppliers. We refer to them as 香蕉视频直播榗loset buys.香蕉视频直播� 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. It香蕉视频直播檚 such a special moment that I香蕉视频直播檓 very grateful to be a part of!香蕉视频直播�
