Shaking Things Up.

Hey Peeps...

Hope you are all fab-o-lous!  Yes, I really do.  Really.

Things are kicking into (higher) gear here over at WWHQ (Wizdum World Headquarters) and I am getting set to relocate to sunny South Beach for most of '09.  I am very excited and very ready to say 'goodbye' to this snow that never seems to end.  But I'll be back soon, you know I love my T-Dot too much to stay away.

I recently had the pleasure of coming across a wonderful blog written by talented artist, Miss Laura Di Poce (check out www.artworkbylaura.com if you haven't already) which you can read here:

... I think she's onto something, hehe.  Well, I think she's onto a couple of things 'cause her artwork is, how-do-you-say, da bomb!

Keep an ear to the ground and one eye up for Wizdum...

Cheers,

-Mrr.

Let's Shine in '09!

Happy New Year everyone...

I have to say, I have a great feeling about this year.  I know if you are like me and live in Toronto, you are probably buried in the snow right about now and happy to have electricity and heating in your homes!  Madness...

To all the loyal Wizdum-ites out there, I want to thank you from the bottom of my rib cage for making this past holiday season a successful one for Wizdum.  We have sold out of a couple of styles of T's, we have had a couple of very successful holiday sales and interest in the brand continues to grow.  It's all feeling very good.  Much love back at ya!

As for what's next... Well Wizdum will be hitting the U.S. market, as we are opening up an office in Miami this spring; fresh, new styles will begin production next month; and I have big, bad plans for our webspace.  It's good.

Don't be a stranger.

Stay tuned for what's next...

Wizdum Hits the Stores!

Happy first snow-fall everyone... (well, in Toronto that is)

Just like the leaves, the world outside seems to be changing.  Changing into a much better, happier and more positive place.  Congratulations to Barak Obama for defeating the Republicans last week and sparking the joy that was lost in so many people!

See what positivity can do?!  I love it.  I'm so happy to be a part of... well... everything right now.  I can feel a shift happening in the air!

To add to the good things happening in the world, I am happy to report that Wizdum has officially made it to store racks.  You can now browse, touch and even try on the latest and greatest in Wizdum gear down at Article 8, located in Toronto at 714 College St. West.  Article 8 is an absolutely fantastically cool shop (for those who are unaware) run by a fantastically cool fella' named Jeremy, you should pop in and say "Hi" sometime.

For those not in the Toronto area, web store shopping is also up and running now.  Woo hoo!  Get your gear ordered in time for the holidays!!!

Don't be a stranger...

P.S.  For those of you who don't know the cat sitting on the box of Wizdum gear... Well that's Mynx.  Mynx use to be the Vice President of Wizdum but was fired due to her alcohol abuse.  She has a hard time letting go of the company, as you can see.

Colourful, Crispy Creepiness...

So the leaves are of colours so beautiful, the air so crisp and clean... and Halloween is only 4 days away!!

What is everyone getting up to this weekend?  As for me and my crew, we will be hitting up the downtown Tee-Dot core all costumed up and ready for action.  So if you run into an evil Mariachi band this upcoming Friday... Watch out!

In other Wizdum news, the fall/winter line has been selling really well, and for those of you who are not in the Toronto area, I promise that online ordering is about to get a whole heck of a lot easier within the next week or so.  We are working on the finishing touches to our online web store and I know you are gonna love it!

I hope all is well in your world too... Don't be a stranger.

Wizdum Updates!

Greetings all!

As you are aware, last week was the Fall Clothing Show here in Toronto and it was great!  It was my first real trade show and I was a little nervous, but people really responded well to Wizdum which is uber-cool.

The momentum is building slowly but surely for Wizdum and we have so many events coming up in the next couple of months that you are sure to spot us... I also sense that we are veeeeeeeery close to being picked up by a couple of cool shops here in the Tee Dot, so getting your gear will get easier.  In addition to being in a couple of cool shops in the Tee Dot, Wizdum's official online shop will be dropping within the next week, so getting your gear will get even easier still!

Thanks for all the help and support to those peeps who came out to help me build, tear down and work my booth at the show... I owe 'uze' ones.

Keep positive out there, spread some smiles around!

The Excitement Continues

G'day all!

There is a late burst of summer sunshine in Toronto today and I have to say, it's great!  The summer officially turns to fall here in less than an hour, but we can fight it a bit longer don't you think?

Continuing on with the theme of my last blog, there have been more international Wizdum sightings.  This time in Paris, France.  Wooo!  Keep sending me those pics of you and your friends in your Wizdum gear anywhere in the world and I'll get them posted onto the blog, promise!

In other news, I want to let everyone know that this weekend, September 26, 27, 28th Wizdum Designs Inc. will be inhabiting booth #221 at 'The Clothing Show'.  For those who have never been, The Clothing Show is a great platform for local, indie designers to showcase their wares and it's the best place to find the coolest upcoming labels and brands (A-hem, a-hem).  This season the show is happening at 'The Better Living Building' at the CNE.  The hours are on Friday: 3-9, Saturday: 11-9, Sunday: 11-7.  I'd make it down if I were you... You are going to love the new Wizdum stuff for fall/winter.

Enjoy the sun!

International Wizdum

Wizdum sightings in Panama... Oh my!

Wizdum sightings in England... Oi me!

Wizdum gets a spot on "Toronto's Celebrity and Event Blog"... Woah!  (http://tceb.typepad.com , look under August 21st)... Is that me right below Ryan Gosling?!  Betcha' that never happens again! Lol.

Wizdum kills it live on-air with 103.9 Proud FM's morning crew, you rock Deb!  So much so that the chiefs, Emily and Mrr, were asked back for a longer interview one week later... Sweet.

Wizdum to be featured in the October issue of "Where" magazine... Wicked.

Well my friends we have been very busy as you can see.  With Wizdum's first winter on it's way, I wanted to make sure everyone has their warm and cozy's all ready in time.  So on that note, make sure you leave some time free the weekend of September 26, 27, 28 to come by the Better Living Building on the CNE grounds in Toronto for the fall edition of The Clothing Show.  Look for our booth (the Wizdum-y looking one, or #221 whichever is easier for you to spot) where we will be introducing many new items and plenty of new designs.  Some things include, zip up hoodies, old school zippies, baseball caps, a new yoga line, hoodies and T's for the little ones, dot, dot, dot... There will be something for all the happy people in your life.  Or even the ones that aren't that happy, but could lighten up a little.

Can't wait to see you there.
