FIRST SPRING OUTFIT

 Before you assume based on this outfit that I am delusional or haven't noticed this sick joke that Mother Nature has been playing on us weather-wise, don't worry, I am quite aware.... I am merely ignoring Mother Nature and posting spring outfits when they should be posted. I'm sorry but it is pretty much April....seriously.... does she not understand the concept of limits! I feel like my sanity is only partially left after this winter from hell, and I know I'm not alone on that one. Regardless of the fact that it snowed today, I will be venturing to the west coast in a couple of weeks so I've decided to start being optimistic and have been putting together some fun, flirty, spring outfits before the weather permits.

IT'S FASHION WEEK

 

It's that time of year again, when the fashionistas of the city put together their most impressive outfits and air kiss each other for five days straight... World Master Card Fashion Week.
I had the opportunity to see the David Dixon show last night, for the unveiling of his first wedding gown line -- White Label for Kleinfeld Hudson's Bay -- and to be a little blunt... I wasn't impressed.
I just feel like the designs were lackluster... I wanted to be blown away, and more-so I wanted to see a glimpse of the idea that Canadian fashion could perhaps, one day, play in the same league as European fashion... and for me... it just wasn't great. 
But of course that didn't stop me from drinking champagne, and doing the kind of people watching you can only do at a Fashion Week fashion show.





 I had to race home from work and get ready in about 30 minutes, which pissed me off to say the least, but once I got my first cocktail in me, I mellowed right out.
I wore a white Hugo Boss dress shirt, Cello dark jeans, a Vera Moda leather jacket, Boutique9 heels, a Target hat and a gold Aldo chain. My bag was vintage, and so were my rings. I paired it all with Impassioned lipstick by M.A.C.

WHITE BLACK & GOLD

I was asked to be the lookbook model for a new online store launching in April, and just recently had the shoot. It was such a fab day of fashion and make-up and fun, which are all things that make me happy. I may or may not have inhaled three big pieces of pizza the second the shoot was over, but that's neither here nor there. Here are some behind the scenes from the shoot!

B L A N K E T . S C A R F


 After searching for, more-or-less the entire winter I have finally found the perfect oversized plaid blanket scarf. What's even better than finding it before winter is actually over (which let me tell you, happens A LOT) is it's vintage! Which in my language means, "as close to 'one of a kind' as I'm probably going to get" And that makes me a happy girl.



It's extremely large, and cozy, and given our current Canadian weather situation, is perfect for everyday. I paired it with my black Burberry trench, which (weather permitting) may actually start making appearances out on the town soon. Fingers crossed that this is the end of the cold spell!!

I've been obsessing lately over simple black tote bags. Deciding between which one to get has been the toughest decision of the week...(I know, tough life right?)

PICK OF THE DAY: VERA MODA TRENCH

 
I literally can not wait for the temperatures to rise so we can start wearing spring outfits! I'm praying that time comes sooner than later because I am lusting over this long black trench by Vera Moda and mother nature is selfishly keeping us apart. Vera Moda is a brand I am all over these days. They sell it in the Bay, and I'm sure other places that I am not aware of, but they just have really chic cute pieces that are insanely affordable.

I literally could not find the link for this coat anywhere, if I find it I will post it!

B L A C K & W H I T E


The most spectacular thing about the office I work in, is there are constantly performers running around. (Yesterday we had a Playboy Playmate, ears and all strutting her tiny blonde self through the studio) Why you ask is this so spectacular? Well, (other than the obvious fact that playmates are fantastic) I have never been one to play it safe in the wardrobe department, and my lips always seem to be stained a different hue of red (Lately, I've actually been opting for a fuchsia, which I'm having a ball with) 

The idea that I would ever have to wear a lady-suit or anything of the sort gives me nausea, so lucky for me, my office lacks that requirement.

S U N N I E S. . .

So life has been moving faster than normal the past few weeks. I have literally been working non-stop, and given that I am a busy-body I have (for the most part) been loving it. Monday was the first day of my new job as a producer and host for a production company here in Toronto. I have been more-or-less thrown into everything extremely quickly, which I am happy about, but has been undeniably, a tad overwhelming. The good thing about moving on to bigger and better things is I get to go shopping for work clothes! woohoo! So expect some office-wear related posts to come in the next little while. Given that I now have a commute in the morning and evening, I have realized quickly, that sunglasses are a major office necessity, (Who am I kidding, they are a major life necessity) and lately, I have been really into kickin it old-school. I've been opting for my RayBan Wayferes far more than usual these days. Their thunder had kind of been stolen by my aviators for a while there, but now, it's all about my solid black babies.
