Just back from an epic week in Vancouver with the Oakley crew for their annual media event, the climax of which was a fashion show on Grouse mountain showing next winter’s snow wear. Great timing as a little event called the Olympics was happening there too (more on that later), which meant Gretchen Bleiler and Shaun White were in town. SHAUN WHITE PEOPLE! Jet lag is holding my brain captive so I’ll keep the word count low and let the pictures do the talking.

Oakley’s new Global goggle

I hope they re-release the Eyeshade because it suits me, wouldn’t you say?

And the deliciously retro Mumbo

The catwalk glowing eerily through the mist

My top three Oakley 2010/11 outfits…
No.1 The Gretchen signature jacket, which is eco and also comes in beautiful mint and light purple

No.2 The other Gretchen sig jacket. Unfortunately you can’t see the tiers on the back of the jacket in this pic, but believe they are good

No.3 Apparently this is not being sold in the UK so you’ll have to order yours online

The line-up

Gretchen is even more beautiful in the flesh

The man himself, my new crush
