Come Hell Or High Water, the Stampede Will Go On

Calgary Stampede officials plan to hold the City's annual event, despite devastating floods that washed out the grounds in Calgary, Alberta.  President Bob Thompson announced Monday the Stampede will run as scheduled from July 5-14.  "We have pumped millions of gallons of water from our facilities, scraped the mud from our tarmac, commenced the clean-up of our park, all to welcome guests from around the world, we are greatest together and we will be hosting the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth come hell or high water" he said.

Bellissima is proud to take part and celebrate the 101st Calgary Stampede.  They have designed a fabulous and classic cut,  3-piece denim suit that makes the perfect summer festival uniform.  Easily paired with bright colors, chiffon fabrics or a casual sundress, this denim makes the perfect outfit. 

 

 

 

Don't forget the accessories!  Bellissima is one of the exclusive boutiques that sell the Wallaroo Hat! A unique, stylish and UV protected hat!  Perfect for days on the midway.  The Wallaroo Hat Company was founded in Boulder, Colorado by Stephanie Carter and Lenya Shore in April 1999.  The team discovered that nothing was available in North America that compared to these UPF-rated fashion "finds" from Australia.  The Wallaroo Hat Collection is washable, crushable and versatile for everyday work or play. Each Wallaroo hat has been designed with an internal or external drawstring to make it one-size fits most.   These fabrics are also tested by the Australian Radiation Protection Agency and block 97.5% of the sun's ultraviolet rays!

 

 

Happy Summer!
