The Kit: Toronto Street Style Feature

casiestewart_April2015_kaylarocca

Yesterday I was featured on Canada’s leading fashion + beauty site, The Kit. Check it out here! Photos by the lovely Kayla Rocca.

Inspired by the era of punk and print, today’s Toronto street style encounter mixes and matches pieces with a retro vibe to create a modern look.

WEARING: Lucian Matis top, American Apparel dress, Rudsak moto jacket and handbag, Nasty Gal hat, Shellys London booties, YSL sunglasses, M.A.C lipstick in Lady Danger
STYLE INSPIRATION: “My mom and her best friend had really great style growing up, lots of prints, patterns, sequins, and big jewelry in the ’80s. That’s where my love of clothes comes from!”

Hi from Pearson Airport, YYZ. Just had a DELICIOUS chicken sandwich and am about to board my plane. Heading to…wait for it…DETROIT! Taking a quick trip to visit the Ford HQ in Dearborn, MI. It’s my 3rd trip there and I’ll be back early tomorrow.  

 Saw this being painted yesterday, it’s a sign. (Get it haha, ok, not THAT FUNNY.)
Distressed a pair of old jeans the other day. They turned out great. Think I might rough them up a little more before next wash. You can find how to do your own distressed denim on Pinterest. It’s super easy!  

 
Thanks for all the kind words yesterday about me and bloggy. Here’s to the next 10 years! 

Have an awesome day,

CASIE 

 

My Blog is 10 Years Old Today.

Casie Stewart celebrates 10 years of blogging!

My how  time flies. I’m happy to celebrate ten years of  CASIE STEWART : THIS IS MY LIFE  blog. Since 2005, I’ve been documenting my global adventures in fashion, travel, and technology.  I’ve been to Thailand, England, Costa Rica, LA, New York, and more. When I look back it hardly seems real. Thank GOD I’ve got it documented so I can relive all those exciting moments. Thank you for coming along with me.  Thinking I’ll do a post with some of my fav moments later this week.

Over the past few weeks I’ve been working on casiestewart.biz,  a brand new hub of work and media accomplishments.  I’m really excited for this year and what the next 10 years will be like. If the last five are any indication of awesomeness, I imagine my 20 year blog post will be from the MOON.

Hop on over to CASIE STEWART : THIS IS MY WORK  and take a peek at casiestewart.biz.

Thank you again for following along and being part of my life. I’m truly filled with joy when I think about all the relationships I’ve built the last ten years.

With love,

<3 CASIE

Friday! Beaches, Bondi, and It’s Not Cassie! 

Friday! Beaches, Bondi, and It’s Not Cassie! 

Went to Starbucks with my sister this morning and as usual I said my name for the order. I don’t know if I’ve EVER had my name spelled right by a barista there. Today is clearly a special one!

Stayed at Jenie’s house and went for a stroll on the boardwalk in the morning. 

It’s SO beautiful down there. I alsolutely love it. Vow to spend more time there this summer. As a West end girl it always feels so far away but one trip on the streetcar and it’s like you’re in a different city. 

Today reminded me of living at Bondi Beach in Australia. I loved it there so much. Left and piece of my heart and will definitely be back someday. Hope to take Sean to NZ and Australia for a tour! 

Came across this old throwback to 2004 when I lived there. Long brown hair! I was so tanned and thin back then. Ahhh, the beach life! 

  

Heading home to see my parents and go to a friends baby shower this weekend. She’s having twins!  Really looking forward to seeing all my old friends from back home. It’s been AGES! 

Wishing you a wonderful weekend. It’s absolutely beautiful outside today!
