In collaboration with the Canadian clothing, footwear and accessories retailer Ardene, Lauren Riihimaki—better known as LaurDIY on YouTube—launched a fun-spirited animal onesie collection.
The exclusive LaurDIY x Ardene sleepwear collection released in time for the holiday season features Japanese-inspired characters, such as unicorns, narwhals, flamingos and pandas. The comfort-focused fleece onesies boast long sleeves with zipper closures, ribbed ankles and wrists, making for a cozy, cute and comfortable way for consumers to keep warm this winter.
To promote the launch of the LaurDIY x Ardene onesie collection, Ardene held two meet-up events in both Toronto and Montreal, where fans of the DIY-obsessed YouTube influencer could take a selfie with LaurDIY herself and enjoy a range of in-store celebrations with the retailer.
