Let’s Do The Time Warp Again! Blog History #TBT

Today I’m taking you back in time and showing you some memories from June 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011. The main reason I started THIS IS MY LIFE was to keep memories. Writing things down has improved my ability to retain information over the last 10 years. June 2008 – SATC Movie came out and I went to a pink carpet party. Gave away an Energi to Go charger for iPod on the blog. It was one of the first things I gave away to readers like you. It was also one of my first pieces of branded YouTube content. Here’s the video. This hair, omg so long and dark! June 2009 – Pink hair for Pride. Blogged about Dermalogica for the first time. I use their products now and love them still. This old shirt of Dads. Bare arms with hardly any tattoos. June 2010 – Gladstone Hotel event, that feather tattoo has been covered by more tattoos. It was a nice one though. Sheldon, Hawley, Tristan Went home to see Mum, she gave me flowers from the garden. It was also summer of G20, I retreated to the island to escape the madness. I also protested in the G20. Well kinda, mine was more like a sexy protest. I wore lace leggins and combat boots and took photos of cute boys. 2011 – Katy Perry concert and I wore a sequin bodysuit with ruffles on the bum. It was so freaking cute. Always great to go back in time and remember fun moments in blog history. <3 CASIE

Top Down Cruisin’ Camaro Drive

This weekend Klout & Chevrolet Canada hooked me up with a sweet ride to cruise around in. Sean and I rented a brand new Camaro last summer in California so we were quite familiar with it’s awesomeness. The car arrived Friday morning and sadly was returned last night. I made a couple GoPro videos while on the back country roads but I’m not sure I should post them because it appears we are speeding! You’ll just have to imagine us cruising with my hair blowing in the wind. 🙂 Thanks Klout for this experience, we had heaps of fun. Best part was Sunday cruising on Southwood Road up in Muskoka. Vrooooooom, this baby is FAST! ♥ CASIE

Customize Everything | Laptop Skin w/ My Face Yo

I looked pretty dorky but in a cool way at the Drake Hotel for dinner last night. I grabbed my computer and ran out the door not relly thinking about the fact I was wearing the same dress! Photo was taken when we were in California last summer, that was a great vacation. One of the cool things about GelaSkins (where I have been working the last few months) is the Create Your Own section on the website. You can upload any photo and make a case for your phone or skin for your laptop. Over the next couple months, you’ll see a bunch of new products (aside from tech accessories) that you will be able to customize. I am a HUGE fan of customizing everything. I’ve always wanted my name and face on stuff. Next thing I am making is a shirt like this w/ my face. pic.twitter.com/Aa8oV0CPQQ — CASIE STEWART (@casiestewart) June 10, 2014 If you are interested in making something for yourself, your business, mama, or BFF, LMK. Happy to help you out or hook you up. With love & light, CASIE
