Joining Shakira’s Wolf Pack to Open Her Show

Last week I did something awesome! I was invited to the Shakira concert by a friend, and we then got the ultimate VIP experience: Joining Shakira’s Wolf Pack to open the show! WITH HER. IT WAS SO COOL. Watch my video below!

It was a sold-out show at the Scotiabank Theatre, with over 20,000 people in attendance. Biggest audience I’ve ever performed for haha. We arrived early for rehearsal, then spent some time in the VIP area having drinks, snacks, and making bracelets at her Bangle Bar.

Backstage on the ground floor of the arena, we are waiting for Shakira, accompanied by her dancers and band. Once it was go time, we walked out into the packed stadium, where fans screamed, took photos of us, and reached out to grab us. Shakira was just a few people in front of me!

Beni and ended up giving our jackets & glasses to these cute little girlies in front of us that danced the whole show and knew every word. 👯It was SUCH A GREAT show. She is truly amazing.

Thank you Luis, aka @mightymendoza for making this magic happen! ✨One of the craziest things I’ve done! WHAT AN EXPERIENCE! She Wolf for life now! 🐺

Last summer, Luis hooked myself and two friends up for a VIP experience to see Red Hot Chilli Peppers, check it out here!

Fashion on Fire Event for Arthritis Canada

Last week, I had the pleasure of attending Arthritis Society Canada’s fourth annual Fashion on Fire event in Toronto, alongside my fabulous friends from Bathing Belle Swimwear.

Held on Thursday, May 29, 2025, the evening was a vibrant celebration of fashion, community, and purpose, bringing together over 450 guests to support the 6 million Canadians living with arthritis.

My friends from Bathing Belle Swimwear, known for their custom designs, were among the event partners, contributing to the evening’s success and supporting the cause. You will recognize the name Bathing Belle because I have been wearing their beautiful suits for years. See here!

Fashion on Fire was not just a night of style but a powerful reminder of the resilience of those living with arthritis and the impact we can make together. A heartfelt thank you to the organizers, participants, and sponsors for an unforgettable evening. Special thanks to Danica from Bathing Belle for the invite!

All I Can Think About Is Spring

It’s that time of year when the sunshine teases us, the wind reminds us it still feels like winter, and all I can think about is spring. We’re sooooooo close to warmer weather and that renewed feeling of ‘anything is possible‘. We had one day last week where it was 18 degrees, and I wrapped up my day a bit early to join a friend on a patio. This week is still lookin’ a lil’ chilly.

I’ve been keeping cozy and stylish in one of my favorite vintage finds, this mohair coat from Value Village, which feels like a warm hug. I paired it with a vintage YSL wool scarf that adds the perfect pop of colour. I have finally mastered the perfect scarf tie over the head, the same one you see paired with a baseball cap at all the festivals.

Something about this in-between season brings a fresh kind of energy. Spring feels like a reset, a time to clear out what’s no longer serving you, plant new ideas, and lean into a lighter version of life. The vibe makes you want to try something new, clean your closet, or book a spontaneous trip.

So here’s to that slow shift into spring, brighter mornings, evening golden hour, and shedding layers both (literally and emotionally). SHE IS READY.

All I can think about is spring vibes and cute outfits, bring it on!

Relaxation Review: The Crown Goose Down Pillow

As someone who takes their sleep very seriously, I’m always looking for ways to upgrade my bedtime routine, and the latest addition to my room is a game-changer. I recently received the luxurious Crown Goose Down Pillow, and after a few nights of testing it out, I can confidently say it’s heavenly!

This pillow brings 5-star, hotel-quality sleep with 875 fill power and 27 oz of premium goose down; It’s plush, supportive, and incredibly breathable. Whether you’re a back, side, or stomach sleeper, it offers the perfect softness and structure.

We often underestimate just how important good sleep is. Quality rest is the foundation for everything; my mood, focus, energy, and creativity depend on it. I feel more grounded, productive, and present throughout the day when I’m well-rested. Investing in things that support restful sleep, like a great pillow or cozy bedding, is truly a form of self-care. It’s not just about comfort (though that’s a big bonus!), it’s about creating a routine and environment that supports your overall well-being. When you sleep better, you live better! Look at that happy, rested face. 🤗

Right out of the package, I could tell this was something special! The fabric is smooth and crisp, with Crown Goose’s signature elegance and attention to detail. It pairs perfectly with the Sopor Duvet Cover Set I reviewed last year, bringing a resort feel to my room. Made with high-quality materials and that signature Crown Goose aesthetic, it’s a small but mighty upgrade that makes crawling into bed feel like a treat every night.

When I moved into my new apartment, I wanted to curate a beautiful sleep setup. I purchased a new bed and fancy sheets, and now, with the Crown Goose Down pillows and duvet cover, I’m living in luxury!

If you’re ready to elevate your sleep game or add a little luxury to your nightly routine, I highly recommend trying this pillow. Let’s be honest, good sleep is the real self-care.

Sweet dreams! 💫

A Little Life Lately – Mirror Selfies

Oh hi! It’s me, your old friend! I’ve been a bit slack about updating my blog, and it’s ok; that happens sometimes. If you follow me on Instagram, you’ll know I’ve been busy. Here’s a little life lately, all in mirror selfies. 😊

In January, I moved into a new place and neighbourhood and started a new gig with a cool client. I’ve tried to stick to my workouts, but it’s been challenging as I’m not as close to my favorite spots anymore. I’ve been keeping up with my Monday weight-lifting and my Wednesday yoga, mixed in with a few different studio classes here and there. I have been spending a lot of time at home, working, walking the neighbourhood, and thinking. I walked 7km today!

I’ve had a bunch of auditions over the past few weeks, including a couple in-person auditions (rare!). I’m hoping to book something soon! Please send out your good vibes for me. In other news, my CHFI commercial got extended on TV (Toronto) and out-of-home (Calgary). I’m in a new advertising campaign for Value City Furniture in the USA (in-store, online, billboard, social ads). I’ll share some more about this soon!

I have a couple more fun things to share, but I will get to those another time! I’m really happy it’s finally spring, with longer days and warmer temperatures. We made it through winter!

Looking forward to summer activities, parks, beaches, boats, cute outfits, and spending lots of time in the sun. Hope you’re having a great week. 💖
