Don’t Just Live Each Day, Live it Out Hard

20111205-211114.jpg

All I packed/need for seven full days fits into my Rimowa super light suitcase & Nella Bella Melbourne bag. Key to the perfect travel outfit for me is layering. Today I wore a little black cotton dress w/ sheer long skirt, cardigan, tights, heels & a hat. I could feel the warm air when we landed so I ditched the cardigan and tights before I left the plane.

Went for a stroll around town. Pretty quiet. However, it IS Monday. Think it gets a little wilder come weekend. Made plans to party it up on Saturday.

Flight Bright

20111205-114852.jpg

Is it douchey to wear sunnies on the plane? What if it’s so bright it burns your retina and there are heaps of windows open and its really sunny? And you wanna use your gadgets? Whatever. After napping for two hours with heaps of turbulence, glasses seemed like the natural thing to do.

Just landed in Houston. Here for < 1 hour before my connection to Cancun. Loving the Tripit app because it gives me do much info. Makes for a very smart traveller and I accessible from airplane mode mid-flight. 20111205-114644.jpg

Pretty warm here!

Here We Go Again

Good morning from Pearson airport Gate 272. Boarding shortly to Cancun via Houston. Haven’t been to either of those airports before so thats kinda rad. I love discovering new territory.

Was a bit surprised on how warm it was this morning in TO. I’m totally ok if there is still no snow when I get back next week.

Feeling a bit exhausted from a really fun weekend. Yesterday I did nothing but watch movies w/ Sammy and eat takeout. This week is gonna be so relaxing. I can’t wait. T-8 hours till I’m beside the ocean.

See y’all in Houston.

Weekend Tune: “I Feel It All” by Feist

It’s December now! Whhhaaaaaaaaattt?! Yeah. I know. Crazy. Get ready for the snow and cold everybody (unless you’re somewhere sunny in which case enjoy the sun you lucky duck)! Luckily for us there are also weekends in December! So here’s our very first December weekend tune!

Just this past Thursday night Feist played Toronto’s Massey Hall and I was oh so excited to be there. She played a bunch of her new album Metals as well as a hearty handful of her older well loved songs. About one thrid into her set a bunch of people got on stage to dance along, including myself! After the dance party was over people started to leave the stage but Feist said we could stay and chill if we wanted to, so for the rest of the show a bunch of us sat down on stage around Feist and her band campfire style! I still get goosebumps just thinking about it! Crazy right?

The entire night made me feel…well… it made me feel it all! So here’s Feist with “I Feel It All”! Feel free to dance along!

Enjoy!
xo Kate

you missed this yesterday

Live each day to the funnest.

If you ever wanna make some kind of dedication video to me, I doubt you will be creepier than this. I’d love it. 😛

Spin around in a world of fashion, tech & glitter for one day.

First stop today was Sherway Gardens with Barbie. I got a Fousqaure “Mall Rat” badge (shame!) cause I’ve been to five malls. Ok, that’s not really bad. If you get to ten you get another badge. I’m not much of a mall-goer anymore so it’s especially exciting to do a couple laps during the holidays. Love the decorations, the tree and today I even saw Santa. Got a new hard drive to back up my Macbook Air baby, James Dean.  Technology is so stylish.

Today I fact checked something about my life from this post. It was about ten days ago but I could not for the life of me remember. New app Diptic lets me do cool things with photos like make them into the four below. This other app I downloaded is 360 Panoramic, check out this I made in the dressing room. Might just be my new fav thing (of the week).

I don’t have the option to embed the 360 but here’s a screenshot. If you click either image the real 360 pano will open in a new window and you can have a full spin around. Pretty neat app! It’s $.99 at the corner store. Nerd candy.

First outfit is what I wore today, black lace bottom dress from Bicyclette, skully cardigan from somewhere and leopard hat from H&M. At StyleExchange I got this heart sweater, leopard sheer number was too big, loved the sleeveless chiffon button down.

Got this darling holiday sweater at CTS, my fav spot, I’m Mayor on 4sq. They are now on Twitter! Follow @CTS_Queen. Posted a cool artice/vid from BBC about Toronto’s booming & competitive vintage scene. They finish with the Deadly Nightshades all girl bike gang. Pretty awesome & two things I love, bikes & vintage.

Barbie was getting all ready for a trip back to the homeland for the holidays and she was trying on all kinda of beautiful saris today. I dressed up in one before, so pretty.

When I got home the sun was setting so very beautifully on the lake.
