Russian supermodel Irina Shayk wearing Desigual this week at New York Fashion Week

Our spring shipment of Desigual’s Spring-Summer 2014 collection arrived Friday at Angel Vancouver. Some of the new T-shirts for men and short-sleeved dresses might not seem suitable for our current cold spell of below-zero weather, but will be great if you’re heading somewhere warm for vacation. (Click on photos to enlarge and put cursor on photos for prices.)

Here is a sampling of the Spring 2014 collection, which we will add to in the days ahead:

Angel Vancouver is located at No. 2 Powell Street in the Gastown district of Vancouver, Canada. Our store is on the corner of Powell & Carrall Street in Maple Tree Square, which is where Vancouver began.  The photo above shows what my store looked like in 1886.

Desigual’s slogan is La Vida es Chula (Life is Cool)!

Today’s music video is The Dog is Mine by Canadian singer k-os (pronounced chaos):Here he is singing Crabbucket:And since the Winter Olympics start today, here’s a great sports anthem, Wavin’ Flag — the theme song of the 2010 FIFA World Cup — featuring Spanish singer David Bisbal Ferré and Canadian singer K’naan, who wrote the song as a call for freedom in his birth country, Somalia:I also chose this song because Spain won the 2010 World Cup and Desigual is designed in Barcelona, Spain.
