WMCFW: Here’s How I Prepped for A Busy Week!

WMCFW: Here’s How I Prepped for A Busy Week!

image

I had a lovely and relaxing weekend. Went to Screemers on Friday night for a good scare and spent Saturday afternoon at Hammam Spa. I’ve gone there a few times lately as a way to treat myself to some relaxation. this time I went a little early to relax in the steam room before my full body mud wrap. My skin felt like silk after!

image

Thank you Hammam Spa for this little gift bag! I had tweeted them the day before about the 20% Stylicity discount (available now!) and they left me some goodies. Oh how I love the Internet!

This little pink makeup bag is from Ted Baker London and I keep it in my purse to freshen up my look since I often head to events right after work. In it are always a few of my fav things:

  • Essence Nailpolish – dries fast!
  • Essence mascara – not expensive but great volume
  • Rescue Remedy – if you have anxiety, this stuff is for you!
  • Elizabeth Grant blue stick for redness – this stuff is great!
  • Burts Bees – staple!
  • Elizabeth Grant dark circle concealer
  • Dermologica Age Smart primer & tinted moisturizer – both with SPF
  • Moroccanoil Moisturizer stays at home but it’s great and smells wonderful

I recieved a few things in the mail this week to get me ready for Fashion Week. A new toothbrush from Phillips and a whitening pen. I take really good care of my teeth so these were a treat! In other news, I was in an electric toothbrush commercial when I was 16. It aired in the USA, the kind you’ll see many a Dentist in Manchester and other dentists and surgeries within the US of A fully endorse and say they can be the best for your oral hygiene.

These D. Scholl’s accessories will come in handy this week too. I don’t always wear heels but when I do, it can be painful! I’ve got a set of the cushions for the balls of your feel in my shoes today and they are like little pillows.

I finished off my weekend with a day at the cottage in Muskoka with my love. The calm cool air was so refreshing. It’s starting to get cool up there though!

I hope you have an awesome week. I’ll be at the tents every night till Friday covering shows and hanging with my fashion family. It’s always exciting to see what hits the runway, who sits where, and of course, who is wearing what.

Here’s to a great first day of World Mastercard Fashion Week!

Get snapped.

Get snapped.

If you’re ever looking to get snapped at a fashion week you need to stand out. This Bill Cunningham fashion doc is great, you’ll find it inspiring if you are shooting people or getting dressed to leave the house. Watch it on Netflix.

Two things to keep in mind during fashion week are nobody takes photos of boring looking people and YOLO. Some of my fav of my fav looks from the How to Get Snapped at Fashion Week post on FASHION.

This time of year is so magical. Meghan and I tool a little break from work to have a swing and admire the trees in Bellwoods.

It’s amazing how energized and free your mind feels after swinging in the air. Go outside and try it!

HOPE WEEKEND IS GRRRRREAT!

Mastercard Stylicity Celebrates the Canadian Tuxedo

Fashion week events kicked off last night with Mastercard Stylicity at The Bay on Queen Street. The fashion community gathered for an exclusive event seeking to redefine the eye catching denim-on-denim Canadian Tuxedo. Special guests included The Coveteur’s Stephanie Mark and HBC Fashion Director Suzanne Timmins.

YOU HAD ME AT TUXEDO!

I rolled up with Brock Mclaughlin and we were up to are usual shenanigans of course. I picked up these glasses from Top Shop. They reminded us of Andy Warhol.

These book trees are beautiful. I wish I had room for one at the house.

Thanks Mastercard Stylicity and The Bay for the gift card. We all got to pick a card from a magical bowl and although they each had  some value, there was only ONE with a huge payout. Mine was $10 which I appreciate!

Blogger discount? No, JK.. It was an error but I had a LOL.

Where do I order these socks or high heel feet? Um, hello!

The Ballet on Ossington w/ Ivana Santilli

The Ballet on Ossington w/ Ivana Santilli

Went to Ballet on Ossington for my first time Friday night. It was a blast! We popped bottles and danced the night away with Ivana Santilli. Who is awesome by the way!

The Ballet is not ‘the ballet’ like the time I was in the Nutcracker with the National Ballet of Canada ballet, it’s just the the venue name.

Me as a Canon Doll in the Nutcracker w/ the National Ballet of Canada

It’s a sexy, fairly small, upstairs bar, with old school booths and often features burlesque dancers. See the full set of photo here, a few of my friends & favs below!

 

Haha I crack me up… DANCE FACE!

Have an awesome day. Much love to you all!

Thankful to Have You in My Life

Thankful to Have You in My Life - We've only got three days till the weekend! Well, after today :)Make them count!

We went to have lunch with Dad then dinner with Mum in Cambridge, Ontario. The leaves are all changing and the are was warm and fresh. We spaced out the family time with a lovely walk in the park along the boardwalk where I used to go as a kid.

image

Still feeling so full and we’ve got a fridge topped with leftovers. I reckon it’s time for a diet!

image

I really love this time of year. Change is good. I’m ready for change. Have a big adventure coming up near the holidays. Can’t wait to share those details with you soon! Hope your week is off to a great start. We’ve only got three days till the weekend! Well, after today 🙂

Make them count!

Thanksgiving, Giving Thanks All Around!

Looking forward to going home with my BF to have lunch and dinner with my parents today.

Haven’t seen Dad in ages. Not as long as this photo, lol, I just love this one.

Too bad all the sisters won’t be there.

There’s 1/5 missing from this gif but two years ago we had a blast at Thanksgiving. All the kids were there and I made gifs of us. So fun 🙂

We went on an epic walk through the trees and down by the river. Hard to believe it was two years ago!

Hope you’re enjoying the weekend!

Ted Baker’s Dozen: Meet Redge Blaker #TedtoToe

Love the latest  campaign from Ted Baker London with their new sartorial hero “Redge Blaker”. You may recognize him as Gavin McInnes, ex-co-founder of Vice. See my previous posts with Vice Magazine here and as  Ted Baker Ambassador here.

Redge (aka Gavin) is the lead in the Baker’s Dozen videos, Winks, and of course Teditorials (Ted’s take on street style) all dressed #TedtoToe. Can’t wait to pop into the Yorkdale store this week and pick up myself something from the AW collection in time for World Mastercard Fashion Week. It’s <7 days away!

Some of my fav bits from the new campaign below! Check out the streetwinker.com website. The animation above is a combo of some of Ted’s. gifs I love this brand heaps, honestly. So cheeky!
