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. 💖

I was asked to be a model for my friend’s new venture into bridal fashion, Cherish Bridal. I was a model for their new collection in partnership with Silk Row Bridal, one of Toronto’s leading shops. The shoot was at the insanely beautiful Preto Loft with hair by Shan Petro, flowers by Unfazed Floral, and shot by Chelsea Gurr.  

Here are a few BTS photos from the shoot. Scroll down for the final shots!

The shoot was so much fun. I truly loved the outfit below. The silk/lace pants with the lace top are so good. They added the longest hair extensions; the girls said I looked like Sabrina Carpenter. 💖

Cherish Bridal Brand is designed and handmade in Toronto, and can be found at Silkrow Bridal in the west end. Check out all their beautiful pieces at silkrowbridal.com/cherish. Thank you, Nataleigh, for including me! You might remember Love Shack Toronto, her pop-up wedding chapel created during the pandemic (blog post here).

Maybe I’ll be an actual bride one day?! 😝

About 2 weeks before New Year’s, a friend asked me if I wanted to go on a cruise due to an unfortunate set of circumstances. I was up for it, my first cruise ship adventure! I’ve been house-hitting a friend’s place for about a month, and she was back on the exact days of the cruise. I was due for a getaway with a crazy few months behind me. It was exactly what I needed! I had such a beautiful room and I am forever grateful to my friend for inviting me to come on this adventure. It could not have come at a better time in my life. I have a zillion photos, but here’s a few in a little recap.

I had never been on a cruise before, and this was not just any cruise. It was a Celebrity Cruise through the Caribbean, and let me tell you… it was a total vibe. It was the perfect way to close out the year and cruise into 2025 feeling refreshed, sun-kissed, and full of gratitude. We stopped in Cozumel, Mexico, Grand Cayman, the Cayman Islands, and Bimini, Bahamas. The beaches were so beautiful, and feeling the sun on my skin was incredible.

When we stepped on, it felt like entering a floating resort. Sunshine, beautiful views, endless food, and luxe poolside lounging. I was instantly in vacation mode.

The food was fantastic! There were a variety of restaurants and a 24-hour dining option; I had everything from fancy meals (steak, sushi, pasta) to BBQ snacks by the pool. The theatre shows were so good! Each performance by the theater crew was outstanding, with incredible singing, dancing, and a live band! I went to a show almost every night before one of the evening events (Abba sing-along, Silent Disco). I assure you, I still managed to get plenty of rest and exercise! I hit the gym almost every morning and walked heaps of laps around the ship’s deck.

Definitely bought about 10 swimsuits and wore them all throughout the six-day trip. Most were from my amazing friend’s shop, Bathing Belle on Roncesvalle in Toronto’s west end. Check out my posts with her suits here or on their website at bathingbelle.com.

Ringing in the New Year on the ship was something I’ll never forget. I missed the ship’s NYE Party entirely and was out like a light by 10 p.m. Started 2025 asleep in my bed and woke up covered in glitter in the middle of the ocean.

There was something so magical about being there and looking ahead to a fresh new year. I would very much like to go on another cruise! On my way home, I met a few people who were heading out on a four-month round-the-world cruise. What an adventure that would be!

I’ve been consistent with my gym and yoga for the past few months and it’s paying off. Finally seeing some abs come in! I was just in a 12-week challenge at Body Engineers, and since I started working out there two years ago, I’ve lost 15 pounds and dropped 10% in body fat. I’m proud of the hours I’ve put in!

VERY excited to be going to Yoga Camp in Costa Rica this February! Remember, I went to Yoga Camp in Haliburton earlier this year?! This experience is hosted by Carla Interior, Drew Hume and Simone Nitzan. I’ll be away for nine days for a 7-day yoga retreat. I can’t wait! I’ve been to Costa Rica twice for yoga/surfing retreats (see here!).

The retreat is at Nivida Resort, in a jungle in the mountains near Palmar Sur and Ciudad Cortés. We have two yoga classes a day with healthy meals, local produce, waterfalls, beaches, native history, archeological sites, and more.

I would LOVE for some friends to join me at Yoga Camp in Costa Rica, there are only a few spots left. If you’d like to attend, visit the website here or send me a private email for a discount. I’d love to hang out in the jungle!!!
