Rdio & Sync in the 2012 Ford Fiesta
Earlier this year I drove to Austin, Texas from Toronto in a Ford Focus with two friends, it was the playlist that made the long drive bearable. This summer I’ve been used Rdio, a music streaming service that is fairly new to Canada. You can use listen your favourite music on all devices online or off. You can also create playlists with friends and share your tunes on Twitter & Facebook. Rdio has been a hit at the cottage, awesome on the subway, and perfect for road trips. My free trial ran out last month and I IMMEDIATLEY went to pay for the service. That’s how you really know something is amazing. Below you will find my road trip playlist from my Montreal trip in August. It’s good to work with.
It took about six hours to drive with traffic so having access to TONS of music in the car was essential. I have the Rdio app on my iPhone and connected it to the Ford Fiesta using Sync & USB. You’ll need to turn on Bluetooth in your smart phone in order to connect it using Sync. If you are having trouble at all the manual has step by step instructions on getting you connected. Make sure you plug the phone right into the USB jack if you are not using Bluetooth. I got frustrated wondering why it wasn’t working until I realized… I plugged it into the car charger and not the actual car. Whoops! Using a USB to connect is a fool proof way to get your music from device to car.
Happy Music Monday 🙂

Good Morning
Woke up and my room was filled with pink sky. It’s raining now and I’m safe at work hibernating inside the computer. SEE! (Inside computer talking to you right meow.) I thought it would be nice to say hello & good morning. Having a full time job doing something I love really makes my blog more exciting and enjoyable to write. I write to remember. It started out as a daily journal in 2005 so I could keep more memories of people, places, things, and thoughts.
Now, coming up on eight years later I have documented my career starting fashion, working through jobs, tv shows, travel, hairstyles, and many outfits. I’m extremely grateful for the journey my blog and I have taken together and that you are along for the ride. Was thinking about that this weekend and I thought I should write it down.
Enjoy the day. This is the only October 1oth, 2012 that WILL EVER BE.
Make it memorable 🙂

Blunnies Come in Shoes Now: These are my new pair!
The other week I recieved an email about the new Blundstone shoes. I’ve wanted a pair of boots for ages, so I replied right away and set up a time to visit the store. Blundstone boots come from Tasmania, Australia (I’ve been there) and all the shoe styles (like traditional boots) are unisex.
Tried on both traditional boot in round & square toes, and the new shoe style. I went with the new shoe. They’re cute. Shoes retail for $149/pair and are available in Blundstone retailers across Canada and blundstone.ca. I got mine at the store on Queen West. Of course 😉
They come in three different colours. I picked chocolate suede.
Ian Heaps of Blundstone Footwear said ““The new shoe style is perfect for those who want the Blundstone quality and comfort in a lighter format. “The shoes are great for around the office, but also transition well into the evening. They provide lasting comfort with Blundstone’s signature “slip on/slip off” convenience. They are everything you would find in a Blundstone boot, in a smaller, lighter package.”
I love the way they get worked in over time. This pair belong to Casey from the Blundstone store on Queen (same name = awesome) and hers are about a year old (left) and the other ones are brand new. I’m pretty sure my uncle has a pair of these, they always remind me of New Zealand.
Guess who else wears Blundstones? The Sheepdogs.
Founded in 1870, Blundstone is Australia’s leading manufacturer of quality footwear and IS STILL a family-owned company. I reckon they’ll fit right into my wild lifestyle. I love the orange bike outside the shop, my shoes looked good with it.
I saw this contest on the website and am sharing it with you. I don’t work for them but I am really excited about my new shoes and would love a trip (back) to Australia so I’ll be entering too. If you win TAKE MEEEEEE! Ok bye.
Thanks Blundstone for the shoes and Casey in the shop for helping me out. Looking forward to pairing them with fall outfits.
Happy shopping and have an awesome day 🙂
