boys with beards

Guys & gals, get ready. Came across this last night via Kevin Naulls, handsome Assoc. Editor of TorontoLife.com and one of the beards in the feature. Thank you Hudson Bay for this.

Oh, how I LOVE BEARDS. Video at the end. Enjoy!

Recognized this handsome one, Ron Ruiz from MuchMTV. We worked together last year to bring MTV Fora to life.

Stellar beard Kevin. His blog is the HOME of bearded. I lurk there often. Throwback to us last year @ Greta SS11.

These few are cute too…

He is thinking, “me & my beard are going to _________.”

Don’t even get me started on this one, Jano.

When I first met his stache a few months back, I was in awe. Never had I seen such a beaut sculpture on a young giants face.

Worked with this cute on at MuchMTV too, Nick Fox(y).

This one is new to me. He has a mini beard. I can imagine he uses shaving brush and soap to maintain his lovely beard.

This one is nice too.

See the original post on the Hudson Bay Co. blog here. Safe to say I don’t think I will ever date a man who can not grow a beard. I have a crush on a beard out there, you know who you are.

Who are some of your fav beards?

yesterday on twitter, this happened:

the royal wedding live on @youtube

I can’t deny for even one second how excited I am about the Royal Wedding. I know it’s cheezy and I’m not one for wedding talk but I love this. I really do. I’ve told you heaps of times how much Mum loved Diana and my middle name is ‘Diana’ after her. This wedding guys, it’s just, so MASSIVE.

MASSIVE not just in the guestlist, dress or whatever, I’m talking security and the footprint this baby is gonna make on the internet. It might explode.

The engagement was announced by on Twitter by the British Monarchy and since then the online prep for the wedding has been huge.  You can catch the big event Friday on youtube’s Royal Channel or traditional tv.

Have some fun things planned in spirit of the royal event. Wednesday is high tea at The Windsor Arms with She Does the City, O’Nizzle & Raymi will be there too. There’s only 30 people  and we’re in the tea room. Looking forward to everyones outfits. I might wear one of these vintage numbers Jenie & I rocked during Fashion Week circa 2006.

Friday morning I’m stopping by my old work at 299 Queen for The Marilyn Denis Show with my client Shelly Purdy. Shelly is giving away a diamong ring on Facebook here. Go enter to win it. She designed a beautiful collection inspired by the Royal Wedding called The Royals. A cute blonde girl you know made her beautiful website.

THE FUTURE is INTERNET.

P.S. Lady Gaga as Queen of Twitter “I love you and love yourself.”

where can i get one of these shirts?

I need one. Like now.

I can think of a number of reasons why it would be great for me to have one of these. Can you think of a reason why I should have one of these? Hopefully WE know SOMEONE who works somewhere that does something with this camapaign and can send me one. K, thx bai. CASIE

* Hawaii, Evian baby will not replace Triangle. Just imagine me as like Angelina ok.

pick up a copy of TCHAD quarterly this week

Your girl is in there.

TCHAD founder George Sully & the team names this very blog as one of their favs. Here’s a sneak peek frm my advance copy so you know what the cover looks like 😉

Happy Monday!

somebody cover this bunny in chocolate! ♥

Happy Easter, long weekend & Sunday Funday. I don’t really celebrate but I AM celebrating myself  today by cleaning my room and going to the spa with a friend. I also love dressing & and having fun. Gonna wear these all day 🙂

photoset: spring hits toronto, down by the lake

Love this dress. Boots Jenie got second hand then gave to me. LOVE YOU!

Beautiful.

This is how you know it it Spring.

Isn’t it so pretty?

Yes. (Turn head/ipad sideways)

Now we are at the Toronto Music Garden. My fav spot.

Listening to this:

Norwegian Wood

It is very pretty here.

I love taking photos.

Am I creative genius? I heard someone say that.

Sabrina’s Mum picked out these tights.

Flowers, blue. ILU.

My religionon Facebook is “when the sun shines through the clouds”.

I feel so at peace when I come here. This reno is new this summer. I took the path less travel by and it made all the difference 🙂

the hailwood tights – green & blacks

I get asked about these tights often. Adrian Hailwood gave them to me last year at NZ Fashion Week. I love them! This is what they look like up close:

They’re all one piece. I need a serger, maybe I could make them? Maybe I should dedicate one whole day to NOT internetting and actually making stuff. Like remember Zoey? I have heaps and heaps of art projects piled up in my mind. I wish I had a cottage on the island or a boat with all my art things on it. I would sail into the lake and make things. Then, after I created a mass amount of  those things with paint, marker & glitter everywhere I would come back and share it with the world.

Back to the tights, I’m thinking about getting some over here. Would you be interested?

BTW Great photo Isaac 🙂

saturday magazine review: holt renfrew spring 2011

It was all foggy like this when I woke up. So, I read a magazine.

Slept with the Holt Renfrew Spring style guide and Chelsea last night.  Finished her book before I dozed off.
Last story was a really good one, they were all good. I like her.

“Can’t live without a little attention and a lot of colour” p.11

I reckon Holts & I could be such great friends. See past magazine review of Vanity Fair here.

It was so foggy out this AM. Look at this. Could not see the island. I love that.

Very cute issue, “This Spring you can’t live without…“.

Happiness, simplicity. ☑ ☑

Some fav’s from this issue include:

  • Sense of humour & tall heels
  • My work & and a suit that makes it look easy
  • Sex appeal of stilettos in one spray
  • A natural high
  • Old friends & new classics
  • Feel good attitude
  • Good pieces, for luck and for love

Lots of nice things. I love new clothes. I should really be cleaning my room right now, but oh, how I love to blog. Haha. I wish my clothes would put away themselves!

It’s beautiful out there now. Maybe I should go outside…
