NUIT BLANCHE 2010: paint it red

Sitting in LAX waiting for my flight and thinking about Nuit Blanche on Oct 2. It’s the weekend right when I get back and I wanna see friends, I wanna see YOU. Every year I get a group of peeps together and we go out and cruise the streets causing a ruckus etc. I love dancing in the streets. Interpretive dance FTW! This year, I wanna do that again but BIGGER. My idea is to meet at Starbucks  – King and Yonge Street at 8pm. Dress in red, make a mob. Let’s go GENYTO!! How could would it be to have red paint & white painters outfits? A see of people dressed in red clothes? Red face paint? Maybe zombie face? 1,000 red balloons? I’m so excited for Halloween why not start early? Make a whole damn month of it. Lets do this together. I made a FB event, image above links to it. (Yes, I also hate FB events but it’s so easy to add/invite people ok. Just do it.) I love doing fun sh*t as you know, so if we have never met, this is a good time to get off your couch and come have fun with me & friends! Maybe we can karaoke after? What if we did mobile karaoke? Karaoke on the street? I’m open to any ideas you have too so like, share ’em. Lets have fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun! Have to fly to New Zealand now. Have a great night/day depending where the heck you live in the world! I’ve been time travelling all day – three hours behind in LA and about 18 hours ahead in NZ. Cray cray! I am so excited! Yahoooooooooooooters. Ok. Bye 🙂

leaving on a jet plane

Good morning. Had a FREAKOUT this morning. No not because of my adventure but because my  blog was hacked. Don’t do that. Seriously. Who the fuck hacks a sunshine-rainbow-fantasty-glitter blog like mine? Looooooooosers. Panic at my disco when I got the notification. Seriously. First thought, shit, I leave for NZFW today what the hell imma do? Please don’t hack things, it’s not nice. Bad actions/vibes you put into the universe have a magnetic particles and like attracts like and they will all come back to you. Be careful. Heaps of clothes. Thanks to Canadian designers Paris Li, Andy Hall and Nella Bella for outfitting me with style. Thanks to Telus for my phone + keeping me connected. Thanks Betty Kiss for the massive suitcase &  reversible clutches.  I packed shoes galore, Doc’s, cowboys, wellies and five other pairs. It’s fashion week followed by chill time with the fams, totes necesary. My two suit cases aren’t stuffed though, need to leave room to bring home lotsa goodies & prezzies. Taking some Tim’s coffee for a cute little blogger named Hannah in NZ. Carry on bag is from Nella Bella, the red reno suede. It’s lovely! I always bring my sketchbook on the plane. I get inspired watching people, looking at the flight path, reading listening to music, flying in general really. Crispers S&V are my fav snack (just saw on sale at Shoppers for $0.99, go stock up on my christmas present!). I can plow through a bag of them easy. SO crunchy. New Wired mag arrived yesterday just in time. Might actually read it sice I’m travelling. I’ve been getting it for two years and each month I browse when it arrives then leave it sitting there to rot, spine uncracked. Packed Kabbalah meditation cards, the 72 names of God,…

What do you wanna be when you grow up?

I wanna be Casie Stewart. I wanna be a world brand. I want to be famous for doing something great. I wanna be loved by you. Ok, really though… I wanna be myself, its what I’m best at. Why be anyone else? They all be damn taken. There is only one you. Remember that. You, you are the best you that will ever be. Make a name for yourself, of yourself. The other day I did a seminar about building your personal brand, I forgot to tell the sold out show – your brand is the most valuble asset you have. There is NO other YOU. Mum told me “when you have nothing left, all you have is your word”. Let’s hope your word has meaning, value and substance mate. No person in this whole wide world can make more content and stuff about/for you, than you. No person can make your dreams a reality more than you can. You are the best, be that best you. Go get it soldier, getter done. Today is about besting, be your bestest you. Nothing will make you more success than that. Love + light xo CASIE

this one time, i tried to vacuum…

I’ve never owned a vacuum but I do like vacuuming. I got sent this totally rad unit recently, LG Kompressor. In the handy kit from LG was this rug, dirt, coffee, cheerios and cardboard pieces so I could make a mess and clean it up to test how great the unit was. Well, I thought it was a crazy awesome idea to be all home shopping network and show you how good I am at that kind of thing. Yeah, not so much. So I set it up like this. Then this happened…watch with amazement and enjoy the music. No really, enojy the music. So, I got dirt and stuff all over the rug AND our carpet. I do not recommend trying to vacuum piles of coffee, dirt, cheerios and cardboard AT THE SAME TIME. Otherwise, the unit is lovely. Quiet and sucks really hard. Haha.
