Boyfriend/Girlfriend

Last week I filmed a promo video for a contest with mega babe Jason Howlett. I have to say I’ve dremed of him being my boyfriend based on all his shirtless pix so this was really fun. He’s very charming. Best part is 1:30 till the end 😛

If you and your boyfriend/girlfriend wanna film a video to enter the contest go here.

I wanted to take it higher I knew you would be amazed

I was looking through old photos and came across this one. I shot it when I first got my PEN from Olympus earlier this year. I love the change in seasons we have but man I’m missing summer already. Next week I got to Costa Rica from the 11th-20th for surfing & yoga. Been ages since I surfed (Australia 2004) so I might start with a lesson so I don’t end up hurting myself! (God that would really suck) Learned yesterday that the Costa Rica Film Festival is happening while I’m there and at not far from my restort. Just my luck, I go or a relaxing vacation & there’s a film festival!

Love this song & her <3


I wanted to take it higher
I knew you would be amazed
I just want to beat Mariah
oh! let me deserve that raise

(MaJiKer: Yeah,
The Money Note
She hit the Money Note
She hit the Money Note
She aimed for F sharp seven
To take us all to heaven
And if she hits C eight
That would be really great
Yeah, The Money Note
The Money Note )

When something is the most real, it is the realest.






It’s amazing how beautiful this weather is. The sunshine makes me happy. I’m pretty sure I saw some kite boarders on the south side of the Island yesterday. Must have been freezing! Can you believe it’s already Daylight Savings time this weekend?

Today Twitter launched a new thing called Stories. I like this one. I’ve got a bunch of Twitter stories to share. I’ve been using Storify to tell stories with  Tweets, this is next level.

Stoked to host the Canadian Club Speakeasy tomorrow night. Location has just finished a bunch of reno’s and we went over all the details yesterday. I still need to find an outfit! Ahh.

Reminding you that you are younger today than you will be again, GO OUT AND DO SOMETHING AWESOME 🙂

this is how we do it

Last week I did a shoot with FAJO Magazine for a feature on Toronto fashion bloggers called ‘10 Items, 5 Bloggers, 1 City“. They also talked to JayAnitaLeesa and Backseat Stylers blogger Sharon.  They asked me all kinds of questions about blogging and photographed me with ten of my fav items from my own closet. Photos were taken Allen Gardens conservatory. I’d never been there and recently found out it’s open all year. I’m deff gonna pop by this winter to get past the winter blues. Being around all the flowers & greenery is so beautiful! Photo credit to Kareen Mallon.

Kate & I went to the launch of Dance  Central 2 the other day & High Road posted this vid today. Runner up in the contest was ME and I now have a Kinect too. Gonna play some tonight. It’s a really good workout for lazy people.

Must go outside and get some sunshine. I have a mega clean to do tonight. My whole house is covered in glitter, blood, costumes and wigs. I love Halloween, might have gone harer than ever this year. Five parties & costumes in four days. It was wonderful 🙂

Kate sent this to me this morning and said it reminded her of us. We both love Gubler too. I had a lunch interview with a lovely journo today who writes for a major Canadian magazine about personal brands, social media & my job. It’s interesting that the idea of a ‘personal branding’ has become so popular, a term that wasn’t used nearly as much five years ago. I always get asked in interviews “where do you see yourself in five years?”, a question I can’t really answer. I like to say ‘happy and with money in the bank”. I dreamed about doing what I do now, I thought about how great it would feel to work from home and travel and make my own hours, be in ads, host sponsored events and get lots of stuff in the mail. I dreamed about it and I really believe thoughts become things and when you set your mind to something, you can achieve it. I didn’t blog much this weekend or take many photos. Yesterday I had a nice brekky with Barbie & Sammy at the Fox on Fort York. Sam & I walked around in the sunshine for the afternoon & checked out ‘no car Kensington’ as he likes to call it. There was heaps to see and photograph but I didn’t feel like being a ‘blogger’. I soaked up the experience and sunshine and it was lovely. Went to see Sheldon’s drag show at Woody’s in the Village last night. Hung out with a whole bunch of hot Aussie boys, it was great. Tonight heading to Underground Cinema for Rocky Horror then Baby Huey’s (Elliott is DJing).

Hope you’re having an awesome day. Coming up next, costume wrap-up!

we take this halloween thing very seriously

Halloween is my fav time of year. Have I told you 1,000 times yet? Y’know the week before halloween right after after Zombie walk. It’s socially acceptable, I feel, to be in costume anytime this week. Not that being in costume any other day isn’t ok. Once I did a pub crawl as Wonder Woman. DRESSING UP IS AWESOME.

Today CTS is having a store party with DJ EL DEVINE (Elliott), candy, pumpkin carving and everyone dressed up. There’s a 50% coupon hid somewhere in the store too.  I don’t wok here but I AM the Mayor and have been for some time now.

Sammy carved this pumpkin himself. He’s a halloween virgin and last night was his first outing.

Elliott is also Australian, double Halloween VIRGINS! It’s a damn shame they don’t celebrate halloween down under. One reason I’m extremely glad my sister and I  grew up in Canada and not NZ. You can find Elliott at the Hoxton or somewhere Queen West drinking PBR.

 

Lucas is ALSO Australian!

 

 

Emma isn’t really preggers. When someone say here smoking there were DISGUSTED! haha

If you are around come by will here here chilling for a while! Elliot is playing god tunes all afternoon 🙂

Weekend Tune: “Monster Mash” by Bobby Pickett

BOO!
Did I scare you? It’s Halloween weekend! Ghosts and ghouls are around every corner! So what’s more fitting then a little Monster Mash?

I don’t know about you but I’ll be boogying to this non-stop. My costume? Ray AKA Zach Galifianakis from Bored To Death! What are you up to this weekend? Who will you be? Tricks or treats?

Happy Halloween!
