Angel is Vancouver’s first Desigual boutique, offering the latest styles for men, women & kids. We also have Desigual designed by Christian Lacroix.
Angel has the largest selection of Desigual on the west coast of Canada. We ship worldwide, with free shipping in Canada for purchases of $200. Call (604) 681-0947.
Desigual is characterized by its different, optimistic and colorful designs. The company began operating in 1984. La Vida es Chula (Life is Cool) is Desigual’s slogan and way of looking at fashion and life. It’s an enthusiastic, positive and optimistic message that nails its colors to the mast.
Angel is located at No. 2 Powell Street in the Gastown district of Vancouver, Canada. We’re on the corner of Powell & Carrall Street in Maple Tree Square, where Vancouver began. The historic photo ( left) shows what the location of my store looked like in 1886 (click on photo to enlarge).
Angel specializes in custom handpainted clothing. Most of our kids shirts (below) are by Justine Brown of London, England:

Today’s video is a live version of Wichita Lineman by Glen Campbell, a great guitarist and studio musician who became a country-pop superstar; Campbell died this week at the age of 81:
My favourite version of the song is this slightly off-key performance on New Year’s Eve five years ago, by Michael Stipe (formerly the lead singer of REM) and Patti Smith:
Patti Smith wrote a lovely piece this week about the passing of her “buddy” — actor/playwrightSam Shepard — in The New Yorker. Music nowadays seems to be dominated by DJs such as Calvin Harris, now a Scottish record music producer whose new song, Feels, features a superstar trio: Pharrell Williams, Katy Perry & Big Sean
And I like this video for Where R Ü Now by DJs Diplo, Skrillex & Canada’s Justin Bieber. I wish my visits to the supermarket were like this:
