1.Can you tell me how you created the name? The name SeeMeNow Apparel was thought of in the light of putting focus and attention on our customers. Other names like SeeMe, Recognize me and others were considered but some had been used already and none made more impact on my mind and people I shared it with than “SeeMeNow”.
2. How did you start out with the business? I started the business with the thought of providing people around me with fashion forward and affordable apparel because I realized that a lot of people I know in Halifax like to dress up and look good but always didn’t know where to find what they are really looking for. So I thought putting brands that make fashion forward apparel together under my website and advertising them would be the best approach to solving this problem.

3. Have you always been interested in fashion? Yes, I have always been interested in fashion ever since my peers weren’t too happy about what I wore at a grade 9 party and to be honest, I wasn’t too happy with what I wore at that time when I think of it. So I made a decision to be more interested in fashion and always be aware of what I wear by staying constantly updated with the fashion speed and being around people who are constantly interested in and driven for fashion.
4. Where do you find your inspiration? I find inspiration from the people around me, social media and celebrities on television. For my men’s outfits, I like to portray a casual look sometimes by dressing in style with the hip hop fashion trend with a loose shirt, jeans or shorts, sneakers, a ball hat and sometimes a bomber jacket depending on the weather. I love to look classy a lot more so I’ll wear fitted dress shirts, suit and pants which I get a lot from social media and television. For the female apparel that I sell, I get inspirations from friends around me and bloggers on social media. As for the business, I get my inspiration from my passion to do the business and making people happy. I feel so much joy and happiness to see people happy to be highlighted as Miss SeeMeNow for an entire month on the front page of my website.
5. What advice would you give to others starting out? a. The best advice I’ll give is to keep their heads down and stay focused because the best is yet to come.

6. How do you select the brands you are going to work with? I look for them online or they reach out to me sometimes. However, I select the brands I want to work with if they connect with the style that my team and I are portraying, which is an affordable fashion forward trendy look for both Women and Men.
7. What is your favorite go-to-look? For women, my favorite go-to-look is a bodycon dress and a pair of short or tall heels because it works well for going out on dates, night out dancing, light shopping and even out with friends. For men, a pair of ripped or motorcycle jeans, loose t-shirt with a wide round neck, a ball hat and a pair of Nike or Adidas sneakers.
8. Any advice you would give people to spruce up a simple look? Be creative and willing to step out of your comfort zone. For women, don’t be afraid to try new things too, step out of your comfort zone and throw on a fitted dress with heels to go out on a date or dance and wear something loose or sporty on a casual day. For men, it took me a little bit of time to adjust to skinny jeans and fitted dress pants when they started to come in style but I had to step out of my comfort zone.

9. What projects are you currently working on? I had a very successful pop up store last year and I’m currently working on opening another pop up before the end of this year or early next year.
10. Where do you see your company going in the next 3 years? I see my company expanding, being on the verge of opening a local store or stores in other cities where people can come to shop for affordable fashion forward apparel and also see themselves on displays around the store. I also see people asking my fashion team for free fashion tips through my website and in store when it becomes a reality.

The End Of An Era And A New Start: Dress To Kill Magazine Goes Digital
A New World Order
I hate to break it down to you so abruptly but the world is changing, the world as we knew it, the way we consume, the way we think and even that good old Dress To Kill magazine is going through it.
Read More: Learn About The Black History In Montreal With This New City Tour
As a young and inexperienced blogger back in 2016, I felt deep in my earth that paper was a dying medium and that the internet was about to carry the torch.
a hundreds of blog posts later, multiple attempts at building an online presence and literally trying to digitize the aesthetics & creativity I saw in magazines growing up.
I must admit 2 things: 1. what it takes to make fashion or information enjoyable is very hard to put together and 2 building an audience on or offline is a GREAT feat.
I grew to admire and respect my peers in traditional media because they made the most out of nothing at a time where Facebook and all those outlets were not a thing.
In case you didn’t know, Dress To Kill magazine is not your average magazine by any shape or form.
Promoting Canadian art and fashion from province to province was something seemingly unthinkable but they got it done.
From iconic covers with Lenny Kravitz and more iconic nights at le Mount Stephen to bring the whole industry under the same roof, DTK got it done.
Don’t take what I’m saying as a farewell note because today actually mark a rebirth for the publication.
Indeed, while the world was going all over the place, they went on a well thought out rebrand.
As you might have guessed, the biggest take away from this is the stoppage of the paper version of the magazine.
The focus is now digital but as I told you earlier, DTK doesn’t go halfway.
Their new platform will include an online boutique which once again is going to focus on shedding light on Canadian creators for men and women.

Do you think more magazines are going to make a full transition to digital?

We Ask A Personal Development Coach How To Overcome The Ins and Outs Of The Crisis
It’s all about your point of view
Everything You Need to Know Through The Lens Of A Personal Development Coach
I’m always amazed at how people like to stigmatize the role or relevance of a personal development coach. They’re quick to label it a scam, a fad, something based on nothing but little they did know, they’re coaches around the world who impacts millions and millions of people in a life changing way. I was looking for the equivalent of a Tony Robbins in Quebec, my research undoubtedly came back to the same name: Marc Dumaine.
Read More: Here’s What I’ve Learned About Myself Since The Coronavirus Crisis Started
Mr Dumaine is more than a personal development coach, he’s a man with a story.
Not your average story either. From overcoming alcohol and drug abuse to obtaining a MBA to running campaigns for some of the biggest corporations in this province. Here’s a man of many battles.
Honorable mention too, these days Marc is focused on creating an international platform to impact as many people he possibly can.
The bottom line is this. This personal development coach is not unfamiliar with trials and tribulations, changes and transitions.
That’s why to me, in a time like this where everything is doing a 180 degree, I had to pick his brain and ask him how can you and I get over.
In this Q&A, we indeed ask Marc Dumaine about several things such as how to bounce back from the crisis, his keys to success and much more.
QUESTIONS FOR MARC DUMAINE
#1 How did you figure yourself out as a future entrepreneur and what was the key factor that made you take that route?I was always an artist at heart and found that I didn’t it in any mole. After completing my MBA, I realized that my biggest assets were my differences. I decided at that moment to stop following what people expected from me and launched my own business. To me being an entrepreneur is an art form in itself. I have never regretted that choice since I launched Asana Coaching 10 years ago. #2 How can someone go from being self-employed to an entrepreneur making money without physically being there?The internet is booming with opportunities right now ! Even with the COVID-19, there is a redefinition of the way people consume products and services ! It is a TIME for being creative and look into endless opportunities ! Get out of our comfort zone and start being inspired by people who are already doing it ! Then, build yourself a right game plan with an amazing branding, and you are all set for the best adventure of your life.
