Today I went on a little walk over to my new apartment, (had to drop off a chandelier for the men to install for me, as if I know how to install a light fixture. Shoes I know, home improvement I do not.), and on my way home I walked past the Listel Hotel on Robson and noticed that they are featuring a FABULOUS exhibit!! FALLEN PRINCESSES by Dina Goldstein features the Disney princesses as modern day women, basically Princesses having to go through what a woman goes through these days. There’s a Jasmine fighting in the Middle East, a Cinderella looking lonely and forlorn in a bar, and, oh I won’t tell you anymore, you must see it yourself! While this may sound a tad depressing, and not quite what a fabulous girl like yourself needs to start off her new year with, I think the images are fascinating and beautifully done. Best seen with some girlfriends and finished with bellinis at a nearby restaurant. So you can discuss the art, of course, not talk about the usual boys, clothes and gossip. ; )

If you are interested in seeing the exhibit, and there’s a lot to see, it is located just off of the Listel Hotel at Jervis and Robson. Enter through the hotel lobby, which conveniently is open 24 hours, and apparently so is the exhibit. At least that’s what the concierge told me. No charge, and pictures are allowed. Hope you enjoy it, I know I’ll be going to see it!

I know the exhibit has been up for quite awhile, apparently they need to blog or tweet about it because I’ve never seen anything about it! I should think it’ll be open for another couple of weeks, but these things seem to disappear fast, so going sooner than later is probably best!
Happy New Year Dani! xo
ooo I can’t wait to go see this! Did they tell you how long it is open for? LOVE your new posts girl, the photographer you met in NYC her site is so inspiring, thanks for sharing
