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!

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. 💖

Cherish Bridal Brand – Hello Lovergirl!

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?! 😝

My First Cruise Ship Adventure

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…

Valentine’s Day Photoshoot at Manor Loft

Love is in the air! Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and I had the incredible opportunity to model for The Manor Loft’s Valentine’s Day Pop-Up, shot by the fabulous Jen Toole. The session was filled with laughter, fabulous outfits, and of course, all the love. With the dreamy red backdrop, roses, and heart balloons, this Valentine’s Day photoshoot made me feel radiant and confident. Posing for these pictures reminded me that Valentine’s Day isn’t just about relationships – it’s also about self-love. It was an absolute vibe with a bright red backdrop, roses, and heart-shaped balloons. The Manor Loft on Geary is such a great space and Jen has a real talent for making you feel confident and radiant. You know I love bold, bright colours and this was the perfect way to lean into the joy and fun of Valentine’s Day. This time of year isn’t just about romance, it’s about celebrating love in all forms, including the relationship you have with yourself. I walked away from this shoot with a fresh sense of confidence and gratitude for this season of love. I even got to have an American Beauty moment! This Valentine’s Day, remember to celebrate you, because self-love is the foundation for everything else. 💖
