On Saturday I went to my first Poetry Slam w/ Vanessa Grillone and her cousin. It was so awesome! I ended up being one of the judges. When I was 14 I published an anthology of poetry and prose so this was super neat.
9 Years: Time to Make Some Changes Around Here…
VERTICAL: Patio Opening
Waaaaaay back in just 2013, Sean and I joined Leesa Butler and friends for the patio opening at VERTICAL on King Street West. We had a blast chatting in the sunshine over drinks with other media and industry professionals. The air was warm, even when the sun went down.
I was sent a link to the photos yesterday and what better time to have a little Flashback Friday then now when it’s bloody freezing out! All photos by Rick O’Brien, see the full set here.
Rick said I stole the show! Lol, obvs. Ha! Enjoy!

Today I wore an Iron Maiden Shirt + Leather Shorts
Going to the Body Mind Change POD implantation + wrap party tonight w/ Sean at TIFF. I’m sure there will be heaps of weirdos (including me). Tomorrow I’m getting my hair done, back to super blonde & chopped to a pixie. I can’t wait. I’ve been missing the old me. I’m getting ready for summer early this year. I don’t care, I need a change and some sunshine motivation.
Hope you had a great day,

And speaking of Canada, can’t ignore this little rascal. Puffing up the airwaves in his pot plane.
According to an official report obtained by NBC News, there was so much marijuana smoke in Justin Bieber’s Super Bowl-bound plane that pilots were forced to wear oxygen masks. The report also states that Bieber and his father were “extremely abusive” to a flight attendant.
What a little btch that Bieber! lol

I’m Not Crying, It’s Just SNOWING ON MY FACE!
Gah. Today is like the maddest winter blizzardy day we’ve had YET! It’s snowing like cats and dogs everywhere. I tried to make it look pretty with my little pink coat from NastyGal and GoPro but I feel there is almost nothing a girl can do in weather like this.
Look at my hair when I got to work…. urgh! WTF is this?
Well, that’s all for now. Stay safe out there yo!

Summer I Miss You, My Love.
I can’t stop thinking about summer. I need to get my a$$ to hot yoga or something. I’m not sure WHAT it is but I’ve been feeling so blarghhhh the last few days. Spent a few hours getting pampered on the weekend followed by a day of relaxation w/ my one true love then BAM I was sick on Monday. Gimme a break!
Thinking Sean and I might hop over to Jamaica or somewhere hot next month. I’m dying to feel the sun on my face and salty ocean water on my skin. My few days off work last week were nice but I was still so connected to the Internet (and work) that it wasn’t really much of a break. You know what I mean? I feel like I need a ‘real vacation’ a digital detox.
In other news, Valentines Day is coming up and we’ve not really got anything planned. I’d like to have a nice dinner and get a good sleep. I’m old now, lol. Last year I was surprised with a bracelet from Tiffany’s and he made me bacon hearts. It was perfect.
I have a few giveaways for things for you coming up over the next few days. Urgh, just saw we are getting more snow tonight. ENOUGH ALREADY, ENOUGH! Looks like I’ll be hibernating all week AGAIN!
With love, CASIE <3

This Way To Heaven
This pic was taken recently by Adrian Fiebig an awesome Toronto based photog from the UK. He contacted me a little while ago to pick out my fav scarf from London’s ‘This Way to Heaven’. I picked ‘The Hawk’ scarf by Tony Common and I love it. I can’t wait to fly away somewhere warm next month and take this beauty with me. the colours are bright and beautiful!
The limited edition luxury scarves are designed by a handful of artists and photographers from around the world. Check them out here. There’s heaps of cool ones!
Look at our stunning Lucha Libre scarf. This scarf would brighten up any wintery day #scarves #luxury #fashion #art pic.twitter.com/GO3MkbhGK2

Scandinave Spa Getaway for Two
Scandinave is a great spa tucked away in the woods at Blue Mountain. They’re got all the spa services of any other place but with the addition of Scandinavian Bath nature spa experience. The renowned Scandinavian Baths include a Finnish Sauna, Eucalyptus Steam Room, Thermal & Nordic Waterfalls, Hot Baths, Cold Plunges & relaxation areas.
I’ve been here before but this time it was REALLY COLD. It’s a great place to visit but I’d advise against going in a Polar Vortex. Sean and I braved the blowing wind for about 45 minuted. In less brutal conditions, people stay for 2-3 hours.
AED 🙂
The roads driving back to the city were pretty gnarly. The snow banks were as high as the car and snow was blowing all over the place. Coming back to the city brought on a wave of traffic and city stress.
I’m ready to book a vacation somewhere HOT!

Refuel those Batteries Girl, Relax, Recharge
Started the day w/ brunch & shopping at The Drake Hotel for TFI’s Guilty Pleasures.
Nice to see the Killigrew boys. Love those guys. They have heaps of new items in their collection. Cardigans, sweaters. They’re also adding jammies and pants. Check ’em out at killigrewfashion.com.
Picked up some sweet handmade fortune rings. Good luck for Year of the Horse I hope!
Had a lovely afternoon at Sekai Nail & Beauty Bar. My 90 min massage was great and followed by manicure & pedicure. Went for an electric sapphire blue on my nails, I usually only get red or black. Change is good!
Tried my first Caramel Macchiato at Starbucks, I see now why so popular. Super sweet but delicious. It was crazy snowy so, after my relaxing afternoon out I retreated to our house and stayed in for the night.
Posted heaps on Tumblr and Pinterest. Started watching the Kevin Bacon series ‘The Following’ on Netflix. It’s about s serial killer, like a really long episode of Criminal Minds kinda. So far, good!

And just like that…we’re back to work.
Oh hai. Back to work. It’s cold. Stress hits you like a ton of bricks the second you get back to this wIld city! We ran into a bunch of road closures trying to leave Collingwood and then there was a gunman on the loose in my work/home neighbourhood. Traffic was insane. Sean had a late meeting to get to. It’s amazing how a few days of relaxation can just evaporate witht the hustle and bustle of city life. I long for the days when I used to live in Australia and the beach + surf was my sanctuary.
In other news, I have a package from NastyGal (with shoes!) at the Postie and my new glasses from Warby Parker arrive today. Booked a 90 min massage + pedicure for Saturday morning so countdown to the weekend is on. I really hope Spring comes early this year, Winter has been a real B*TCH THIS YEAR! 🙂

P.S. Have some Valentines Day giveaways coming up next week for youuuuuuuuuuu! ♥
