Remember how I said I was exhausted? Went to bed at 7pm last night. Feeling pretty good this morning and looking forward to being back at the office tomorrow. Starting the day with a relaxing soak at the Sky Lounge, one of my fav things about living here. Back was hurting a bit so should feel better after this. Will be wearing my Lazy Pants all day.
Listening to A Very She and Him Christmas album on Rdio and have the place to myself. I love this time of year!
Enjoy the day!

The weather today fits perfectly with my plans of lazing on the couch catching up on this week’s Young & the Restless. After a long and exciting week of London, Montreal, and a taking the stage last at the night, I am completely exhausted. Hope you are doing something relaxing today too. Any good movie recos?
It’s been a crazy week and I’m about to finish it off with a BANG! Tonight is the FIRST of only two shows of the Santa Baby Christmas Show.
There are 50 girls and it’s incredibly sexy. It’s my first time performing with them and I am SO excited to dance for you.
Tickets are still available and you can get them at the door. This is a sure way to get to in the Christmas spirit and will undoubtedly give you holiday cheer.
You don’t want to miss it! Doors open 10pm. See you at the MOD CLUB Theatre.
Christmas kisses for all!
XO CASIE
So, here’s the truth…I’m coming up on eight years of my blog in April. Eight is my fav number, lucky Chinese (I’m not Chinese), infinity symbol, I was born on the 8th of May. It was Mothers Day. My middle name is Diana, after The Princess. My Mum loved her. We have all the China (plates).
Ok, here we go…
My blog is only about 25% of my life if that. I don’t tell you most things that happen. I like privacy, although I am only learning what it means now. I’m extremely positive as a human, except for when I am sad. Which isn’t that often. But when I am, I am extremely lonely and like to be alone.
Being popular or an ‘influencer’ doesn’t mean you have friends. Most days, I come home from the office and put on my LazyPants. $80 jogging pants, gifted, but available at Macy’s or Holt Renfrew. Baller, no.
I go into my room, throw my 11″ Macbook, iPad, on the bed, take off my bra and throw on a t-shirt, then a scarf, and usually something on my head. I like my head covered, and my ears.
I don’t know why I am telling you this, I’m mostly telling myself. I have been dealing with anxiety for a long time, I have never been to a doctor. I’m scared they either say “You are an absolute narcissistic nut, or you have a serious creative genius ability that transcends modern innovation. Ok, I’m being dramatic but I am not a ‘grey area’ person.
We are getting into two paragraphs and most people will not be reading this. I need to write this down because I am TERRIFIED of losing my memory. I have had a few concussions, cheerleading fall, rollerblading accident, 12 feel off a loft on my back (two cracked bones, chipped tooth). Luckily my friend recommended to me that I should use someone similar to this Dentist In batavia to help make my tooth look more normal again, as she knows how it will affect my self-confidence, as I’ve always loved my smile. There’s plenty of options these days for people who need dental work done, including dental veneers, and it is a step that can help many people regain confidence in themselves.
There is a fine line between genius and insane. I am not saying I am a fucking genius (insert haha audio) but I have always been ‘different’. And, most people are idiots. If you are smart, and especially if you are ‘easy on the eyes’, you have an advantage.
BUT, with advantage, comes responsibility. I have been having extreme social anxiety about going out lately. It’s not like highschool anxiety. My friend suggested to me that I try cannabis from legal dispensaries similar to what I could find if I went to a Canadian Cannabis Dispensary (Click here to visit the website) to help calm my nerves but I am not sure it is for me right now. I know that when I show up, people are going to say hi, I will say hi, I like them, they like me. It is so nice to see them, a lovely bunch. Especially the fashion crew, I always thought they were so snobby, but they aren’t really. Only a few, get off your high horse. Whatever.
Anyways, I have social anxiety. I asked for all the notoriety I have gotten, I wanted it. I busted my lil’ ass to make sure everyone knew me…”I’m Casie Stewart”.
Aren’t you the girl from THE INTERNET/Twitter?”
“Yes, I am that girl, a real human”.

Big day today!
<3 CASIE
There’s something to be said about following your dreams…
I’ve always been a dreamer, always been a little ‘out there’. Someone with big ideas who looked at the world like I could go anywhere, achieve anything. To the moon Alice! The moon isn’t as far away as it used to be and it’s easier to get there if you know how.
Today I had a dream. A small dream to some, but to me it was one I had been dreaming about for a long time. It was important to me. The small dream is part of a bigger dream. It’s all the small dreams along the way that helped the big dream come true. My dream was to have an English meat pie. It was part of the bigger dream of going to England that I have had since I was a teenager.

That’s the thing, you have to dream a little dream, and set goals, and work at them every singe day. Your thoughts become things and the more positive thoughts you throw at those things, the more real the dream becomes.
Then, one day you’re sitting on a king size bed, draped in a white fluffy, hotel robe, in your deluxe suite at Le Meridian Picadilly in London, England, FINALLY eating that god damn English meat pie you have SO been dreaming about. It’s that very moment you smile and think, I can do this. I can do anything.
Hard work and believing in yourself can make dreams come true.
I feel incredibly blessed to be to this trip. Tomorrow is an exciting day full of press things, shopping and an event at the tallest building in the EU that isn’t even open to the public (for two months!). Massive thank you to Thomas Sabo and the ladies of Faulhaber Communications for having me as a Canadian ambassador and inviting me to be part of this adventure.
Helloooooooo from London, England! This week is a busy one as I arrived here early today and will be in Montreal come Thursday afternoon then, back at the office Friday afternoon, and on stage in the Santa Baby holiday burlesque show Friday night. Yikes! I live for this though. I love being on the road, I find it really enhances my creativity and inspires me. I’m excited for all the things I learn and people I meet on each trip. I met two dudes while boarding the plane who get their biz cards printed through my office! Cray.
I’d like to invite any of YOU to meet up with me in Montreal on Thursday for the Tia Maria Room. If you can make it please Tweet, test, comment, email, or do something to let me know so I can add you to the list!
There will be lushious cocktails, sensual tunes, a performance by Jarvis Church, and of course, me! I’ll be working and tweeting for Tia Maria and would love to see you there. LMK!
Time for a wee nap then I’m going to take in the city!

Casie Stewart has been many things. She’s worked as a consultant, brand ambassador, spokesperson, copywriter and community manager. Until this autumn, she juggled freelance work as each along with sponsorship deals with brands like Canadian Club, LG and Cadbury seeking mentions on her life blog and social streams.
Then in September she made the jump into the agency world, accepting a position as director of social media at Community, a small Toronto-based agency that works on campaigns for clients like LiveNation, Heineken and Bacardi.
Stewart says she’ll maintain her social presence (which includes 14,000+ followers on Twitter) despite her new nine-to-five and is participating in upcoming influencer programs by Ted Baker London and Telus. At Community, Stewart is using her personal network of influencers and experience as a blogger to inform client work.
As a sought-after influencer, Stewart’s participated in dozens of social campaigns. These are four of the best. READ HERE.
He’s a Knottycase for my iPhone, he came from California, and was made in Canada. He’s part of the Save the Redwoods League at savetheredwoods.org. He was born beside a rocky stream, in the mountains near California, as long as 500 years ago. Albert was a big strong redwood but unfortunately he had a bad winter fall.
When you purchase a Knottycase you are helping to plant trees and make the world a better place. My wooden iPhone case is the Oak on Black and available for $79. Each case is one-of-a-kind, different grain lines give each it’s own look depending on the part of the tree the wood came from.
I love it. Nice gift for the holidays. Go digital, save trees. 🙂
