If you’ve been following along on Instagram, you know I’ve been deep in what dress should I wear?! mode for an upcoming event. I stopped by Fitzroy Rentals , owned by my longtime friends, Ange and Jules, to try on some looks. I’ve been renting dresses from them for years (back to their Ossington storefront days).
One of my favourite events during ‘gala season’ is the Motion Ball Toronto Gala, a night that combines dressing up, dancing, philanthropy, and great energy, all in support of the Special Olympics.
Trying on dresses is always a full experience; Sequins, drama, glamour, laughter, and mirror selfies. I tried on a few absolute stunners, sleek, sparkly, bold, romantic, and shared the whole thing on Instagram (HERE!). Truly grateful for the DMs, comments, opinions, and “OMG THAT ONE” energy.
