War of the Words | Toronto Poetry Slam

On Saturday I went to my first Poetry Slam w/ Vanessa Grillone and her cousin. It was so awesome! I ended up being one of the judges. When I was 14 I published an anthology of poetry and prose so this was super neat.

VERTICAL: Patio Opening

Waaaaaay back in just 2013, Sean and I joined Leesa Butler and friends for the patio opening at VERTICAL on King Street West. We had a blast chatting in the sunshine over drinks with other media and industry professionals. The air was warm, even when the sun went down. I was sent a link to the photos yesterday and what better time to have a little Flashback Friday then now when it’s bloody freezing out! All photos by Rick O’Brien, see the full set here. Rick said I stole the show! Lol, obvs. Ha! Enjoy!

Puffing up the airwaves in his pot plane. According to an official report obtained by NBC News, there was so much marijuana smoke in Justin Bieber’s Super Bowl-bound plane that pilots were forced to wear oxygen masks. The report also states that Bieber and his father were “extremely abusive” to a flight attendant. What a little btch that Bieber! lol <3 CASIE

This Way To Heaven

This pic was taken recently by Adrian Fiebig an awesome Toronto based photog from the UK. He contacted me a little while ago to pick out my fav scarf from London’s ‘This Way to Heaven’. I picked ‘The Hawk’ scarf by Tony Common and I love it. I can’t wait to fly away somewhere warm next month and take this beauty with me. the colours are bright and beautiful! The limited edition luxury scarves are designed by a handful of artists and photographers from around the world. Check them out here. There’s heaps of cool ones! Look at our stunning Lucha Libre scarf. This scarf would brighten up any wintery day #scarves #luxury #fashion #art pic.twitter.com/GO3MkbhGK2 — This Way To Heaven (@HeavenScarves) January 20, 2014 <3 CASIE

Refuel those Batteries Girl, Relax, Recharge

Started the day w/ brunch & shopping at The Drake Hotel for TFI’s Guilty Pleasures. Nice to see the Killigrew boys. Love those guys. They have heaps of new items in their collection. Cardigans, sweaters. They’re also adding jammies and pants. Check ’em out at killigrewfashion.com. Picked up some sweet handmade fortune rings. Good luck for Year of the Horse I hope! Had a lovely afternoon at Sekai Nail & Beauty Bar. My 90 min massage was great and followed by manicure & pedicure. Went for an electric sapphire blue on my nails, I usually only get red or black. Change is good! Tried my first Caramel Macchiato at Starbucks, I see now why so popular. Super sweet but delicious. It was crazy snowy so, after my relaxing afternoon out I retreated to our house and stayed in for the night. Posted heaps on Tumblr and Pinterest. Started watching the Kevin Bacon series ‘The Following’ on Netflix. It’s about s serial killer, like a really long episode of Criminal Minds kinda. So far, good! <3 CASIE
