The new Mark's - My #Marksover !

Today I had an amazing opportunity to check out the new Mark's (previously Mark's Work Warehouse) and get a Marksover. I was given a tour of their new store and I even got to test out their huge 'dressing' freezer! Here's a sneak peek of me and Andrea from @MarksWW in approximately -20 degrees Celsius temperatures testing out T-Max's warmest and lightest insulated hoodie! Truth be told, my upper body was nice and toasty but my legs were freezing!  Unfortunately, the picture didn't quite turn out as well as I thought it might through the glass of the freezer.

I wish I would have thought to take a picture at our local Winnipeg store!


After this, I was outfitted in the new Mark's Fall/Winter line, had my hair and make-up done by local Winnipeg stylists, then I had a mini photo session with Brian from Brian Rudolf Photography. Below are some pictures of my experience (including a picture of me with one of the hard working PR reps that put this Marks experience all together!):

Mark's is definitely not the same as the old Mark's Work Warehouse. Thankfully they've kept their innovative products but incorporated current fashion styles for the modern man and woman!  It's definitely worth checking out!
