Weekend Tune: “Born To Die” by Lana Del Rey
Hey hey hey! Weekend tune time! This week I decided to post the latest video from the oh so talked about Lana Del Ray. Here’s her deal…
Once upon a time there was a shy girl named Lizzy Grant with blonde hair, a pretty voice, and dreams of being a star. Then she met some industry types, and her lips magically grew as big as her dreams. Before you knew it that shy indie girl with the pretty voice became latest hipster hottie! And who doesn’t dig Video Games?
Whether you love or hate this manufactures hipster pop star, you gotta admit that this music video for “Born To Die” and Miss.Lizzy/Lana are both pretty amazing. Tigers and tattoos and fire oh my!
Enjoy!

Let the Sun Shine In
So nice on my balcony right now. Jenie helped me clean my room (Merry Christmas to me!) and we’ve been soaking up the beautiful sunshine. Have a meeting this afternoon then heading to The Central to record a podcast for a friends show.
Feeling better, thanks for the good wishes. Reckon I’m just a bit tired! Have an awesome day!

Ninjabread Men
Stayed in last night w/ my sister watching movies and decorating these tasty guys. I think I’m coming down with a cold. Had to cancel today’s photo shoot. Yesterday I slept the entire day. Recording a podcast with Lauren and some friends later today. I will sleep until then. Where can you buy a Nety Pot?
I hear that you like the bad girls honey, is that true?
I have a thing for cars.
Saw this old Chevy truck in Mexico and it reminded me of Dad. When I was growing up I spent heaps of time round old cars as Dad owned a chassis shop called “Toys for Boys” where he custom built hot rods & cool cars like a pro street s10, as well as many others that would be now considered vintage. We always had people coming by the house with the sickest rides. I guess that’s where my love for nice cars comes from. Thanks Dad (and Mum of course!) 🙂
Next week I’ll be on the road driving the cute little Sonic from Chevrolet. Remember a couple months ago when I won A Sonic in Yonge Dundas Square LIVE on YouTube.ca? What a crazy experience.
In January I’m attending the 2012 North American International Auto Show. Ford is sending 150 of the worlds top bloggers to NAIAS for a few days of press conferences, dinners, discussions & influencer activities. Can’t wait till my itinerary arrives to I can FW it to my Tripit app on iPhone. Mum informed me that I cisited the Ford Motor Company plant when I was a wee little kiddio. My how times flies!
Dancing Circles
Feeling like I might be coming down with something. Figures, post vacation and entering holiday season, confined to the house and the couch. Ok, it’s not that bad, all I really want to do is be on the couch with my computer anyways. Had to reschedule today’s shoot for next week. Barbie is away till the end of the year so I’m home all alone. I feel like my place is The Factory, a la Warhol and I’m gonna to churn out some really creative stuff before 2012.
- Check out this vid of my friend Mauricio surfing in Montezuma, Costa Rica. I was surfing there last month. He’s got a board cam! So rad.
- Happy Place posted the 50 Funniest Tweets of 2011
- Andrew Carboni started a tumbler for his (Mis)Adventures in Asia. Follow it here. Remember the
sexycreepy Movember video he made just for me? - How did I make such a magical gif creation? Diptic on iPhone, Picasa, Gif ninja. You can figure it out of you want.
- IMDB – omg you know this girl 😉
I Missed View, I Always Do
Looking out from my place isn’t as dreamy a Mexico or Costa Rica but I sure do love it.
This is what the new WordPress looks like on mobile. I’ve been using WP on iPhone heaps lately. Really great when traveling.
My goal was to go out and do stuff today but I stayed home, worked and still haven’t gotten dressed. Bonga is on set for a new movie he’s shooting tomorrow so we might hang out later.
Reckon I will get some grub from the Fox down stairs and come back up for the Y&R. The rest of the week is full of events, meetings and shoots. Rest day!
Let’s Get Sexy
I recently had to replace my iPhone and when I found out it wasn’t $600+ and was $200, I splurged on nice new bras & panties. It’s something I rarely do but is oh so nice to treat yourself. Especially this time of year when you’re budget often goes to treating others.

I’m off to the Eaton Centre to get some holiday spirit 😉
THIS IS PARADISE
Ahhh. WHIRLWIND the last few weeks but nice to home. Not going anywhere but the parents till January. Reckon what happens now -March will determines most of 2012. I love this time of year and if my lunch meeting gets rescheduled today (I was still in CST not EST, whoops!) then I am going to the Eaton Centre and walking on Queen to see if I can catch some holiday spirit. Lots of work the next couple weeks, feeling really good about it. Can’t wait to spend time with my family & friends now that I’m back in the city. Those killer bites on my ankles are so ugly right now. I’m dyyyyying to go for a pedicure but they’re too gross to show ANYONE.
These shots are from a recent afternoon shooting with My City Lives and the Biz Media Agency. Kate was on set as my PA and took some great shots, her flickr here. I love that my hair is growing. Lipstick is my most fav ‘999 Ara Red’ by Dior.

Little boxes on the beachside, little boxes all the same.
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet!
Hola & good morning from Capricci Latino on 5th Ave. I’m here having breakfast & wifi. Ok this gif is from Starbucks but their internet crapped out so I had to move on.
Before I sit down for a meal when travelling, coffee or snack I ask if they have wifi. Pretty much everywhere does. I’m addicted to documenting, sharing and being connected so when I have the chance, I sieze it. There’s plenty of time to disconnect and soak up the sunshine.
Check out what I did yesterday for an HOUR…PURE BLUSS!!
Heading to the beach now to soak up some rays before I check into my new home at hotel Reina Roja at 2pm.
Downloaded a cool app yesterday called Zite, it’s a personal magazine, kinda like Flipboard which also just came out for iPhone. I’m running on reserve battery power now so, I leave you with my most fav Christmas song, Jingle Bell Rock! 🙂
I’m back home Monday night and am looking forward to holiday spirit. Feliz Navidad!

There’s a full moon tonight.
they say the world was built for two
Listened to Katy Perry White Christmas and it made me excited to come home for the holidays. I’ve spent some serious time thinking about what to do next with my life and I’m really excited about it all. This is quite a lovely song…
Listened to Gala Darling’s book Love & Sequins last night. Gala is an awesome Kiwi girl in NY who writes a charming blog and lives a beautiful life. She has so much great and advice and is very positive. I can’t wait to meet her. Two of my favourite bloggers in the world are Gala Darling & Gala Gonzalez (Almul’s Closet). This is Rumi, Gala Gonzalez and I at fashion week in NZ last year.
These are my 15+ postcards with names on them to write at the beach today. I will send you if you give me your address.
Downloaded the Canada Post app and DID YOU KNOW you can make stamps and postcards from your photos. Check this out!
This is what #NewNewTwitter looks like. It’s so pretty. Twitter for iPhone is really good lookng too. Time for me to knock off work and hit the beach. Have an awesome day!

la vida es un juego, lo juega!
Happy Friday amigos! Yesterday I walked all Playa del Carmen in the sunshine. It was so lovely.
Last night I went to a soccer game. It was loud and full of energy and excitement. I could hear the cheering & “ole ole ole ole, ole, oleee” from our place so I went to check it out. Big guns & kids everywhere.

Our condo is in the back middle of this photo.
Cool bike rack! Never seen one like that before.
Time to hit the beach. Life is a game, play it!
Feeling Young & Restless
In other non-related travel news, I found this last night. HOW COULD I NOT HAVE SEEN IT YET?! It just made me so happy. I searched for a while trying to get ‘all access’ to the Young & the Restless in Mexico. Didn’t happen. I’ll have a week’s worth of episodes to catch up on when I get back next week.

Content Strategy Burger = Hungry for engagement.
HI, i’m on the internet and I should be outside at the beach. What are you doing? DO something. I just learned about Zarly – what you want, whenever, whatever. NARLY!
Kyayyam just posted this and now I want to go to Burger King and Tweet or blog about it. I slept till noon for the first time in ages. It’s amazing how the internet sucks you in. I love learning. (instert nerd smiley)
Finishing up this work, charging my phone and going to the beach. I really want to move. I’m going to. If you write things down and tell people you are more likely to do them. I have so many bites on my legs, trying not to scratch them is HELL. I’m thankful for fresh water and sunshine. What are you grateful for?
Today Twitter changed, this is new Twitter. If you are not on Twitter or you are, watch this and think about how much you could learn in one day. I consume an insane amount of information & content in a day, which enriches my life greatly.
Note to self: GET OUTSIDE.
You Only Live Once
Make the most of each day. You will never be younger than you are right NOW so go do something awesome. Pura vida!
Last night we made friends with six hot flight attendants from Belgium who were totally awesome. I went swimming in the pool at the bar that over looked 5th Avenue. Reconsidering my thoughts about moving to NY and thinking about LA. The team at Thynk Taynk (I’m here with) is really cool! I don’t think I want to have so much stuff or live in one place anymore. Travelling is the most amazing experience and I want to live it everyday.
We discovered THE BEST SONG last night. This is it!
