Picked up this hat from Fashion Crimes for last night’s Diet Coke event. This was the social media party of TIFF. Everyone and their blog was there. Read about it on The Grid. Lots of Tweets and Facebook happening on scene and heaps of familiar faces. Was nice to meet a few peeps for the first time who enjoy my blog & Tweets. HI GUYS! The Diet Coke team did a great job of turning the Hoxton into a Gala-like venue. Thanks for the pic @DietCoke I didn’t take my camera but Raymi posted a heap of photos here. Will add Coke’s photos once they’re live. Have an awesome day 🙂
Cue Katy Perry TGIF cause last Friday night Keri, Lauren and I had an awesome time at The Hazelton and I’d do it allllllllll again.Red carpet love from your three fav blondes 🙂 There were thousands of people gathered around watching. I wore a top from Bicyclette, American Apparel Late Night Disco Shorts and Jeffrey Campbell pixie wedges with Zebra nails & matching purse. Most of these next photos are from Keri’s blog, check it here. I didn’t take camera. I spy Julian & Notable.ca. I met CLIVE OWEN. I love him. My fav role he played was in Closer with Natalie, Julia and Jude. He was beautiful and charming in person, just like in my dreams. Mega swoon. Bono, Jason Reitman, Gerard Butler, Juliette Lewis, Jon Hamm and heaps more celebs were there too. Thanks for another great party George. CBC Live tweeted that we were there along with all the celebs. How cool is that Mum?! Finally met Amber Mac. Her name comes up all the time, she said the same, although we had never met in person before. Super nice girl. Been following her for years. Sarah Was super cute and said “ahhh my fav bloggers all together”. Her post is here. More blonde blogging babes! Lynsie is covering Fashion Week in London. Congrats girl! Kris was my fav meet of the evening. I was certain he was Chris Martin from Coldplay but he is an actor on Tudors who is also a Pentathlon, riding and fencing champion. Mega…
Starting Monday I’m in a national advertising campaign with HTC! They’ve chosen to feature me in a new campaign that will run for 14 weeks on lifestyle and entertainment sites across Canada. I’ve been working with Say Media for a few months. Have you ever noticed the video ads in my sidebar? That’s them. I’m their leading lifestyle blogger in Canada. SAY is a rad company based out of San Francisco who works with the internet’s leading voices including Seth Goden and Brian Clark (@copyblogger). Check ’em out below 🙂
I’m happy to my acceptance as a Delegate for TedXToronto on September 23! I attended last year and it was quite riveting. For details on how you can take part in the conference go here. There’s a few speakers this year I know personally so I’m really looking forward to being there. Not sure who the hosts are. These are two of my favourite videos from the speaker vids created by my friends at The Biz Media. First up is Movember co-founder Adam Garone and second Rob Spence. Reckon you’ll find them quite moving 🙂 Dropped off a bday present for Emma at Sammy’s work today and have had this song stuck in my head. It’s real pretty. Give a listen, you will like it too. Tonight is the Diet Coke TIFF party. Two more nights of TIFF before it’s over! Gah. Mega tiring. Gonna take a city break and go visit Mum this weekend.
Good morning, good morning and how are you today? Mum used to sing that to me when I was little. Hoping I can go visit her this week. It’s Monday and I’m feeling great. Woke up early and been working from bed. Sent a couple invoices confirmed a few meetings and am ready for a stellar day. Off to pick up my new business cards. Kate starts working with me at the office today. I officially have a PA, follow her on Twitter here. Remember, you are younger today than you will be again, make the most of it! <3 CASIE Love this Jam – Selah Sue. So good.
Friday I attended the TIFF Social Media Lodge & gifting lounge at FSTOP on King street. Lots of great people and products. Thank you to event hosts Chrissy @ Vocab Communications, Gordon @ Social Lodge, Jeff @ Real TV Films and George @ TCHAD.
Took Kate to meet my girls at Doll Bar Inc today. I wanted to get her some flowers. Plucked mine last night Black Swan style. Lucky for me, they just got a sample of in this rad hot pink Kevin Murphy hair makeup an hour before we showed up. Washes out when you shampoo and goes on like paint. I’ll be rockin’ it tonight at Strombo’s TIFF party at the Hazelton. Funky haircut is done by Darren Kwik Studio inspired by Zambesi New Zealand.
Tonya Lee Williams aka Dr. Olivia B. Winters from Young & the Restless. Watching the Y&R right now 🙂
I love VIEWWWWW!
Attention Torontonians who like good music and good times! Tonight Jason Collett and Zeus are playing a free show at Yonge and Dundas Square! The show kicks off around 8pm, so all you festival folk will still be able to TIFF it up after! Oh so perfect yes? Now let’s get to the music video… I’m so excited you guys! Jason Collett is so dreamy. This one time I was having brunch at Aunties and Uncles, and HE WAS ALSO THERE! I could barely focus on my bacon-y breakfast sandwich. Truth. Also? Zeus! Did you spot them jamming out in the background? Did you know that they’re Jason Collett’s backing band? Have you heard their amazing Genesis cover? Have I mentioned how excited I am already? I’m so excited. Happy weekend everyone! Enjoy! xo Kate
