Philip Sparks FW 2011 – fashion week begins @burroughes

Models look prettier when they smile. Burroughes is good for parties, not as good for fashion shows. He did this pose for me and smiled right after. Eye contact. Glitter, Julio. I looked like a Nana. Vest knitted by a nana. Yannnnnnnnnnnno you giant, you totall missed Puma Social. Duh! Hi Tristan, nice hustle. Daniel and I worked together at Gap in Kitchener when I was 16. First job ever and to this day one of the very best. I made connections there that will last a LIFETIME. Work it gurllllllllll. Hey Hawley. The end. How much of a difference does my new camera make? Like a zillion. Thanks Olympus!

If you figure out how to harness the power of female customers, you can rock the world.

If you figure out how to harness the power of female customers, you can rock the world.

This article I read on TechCrunch called Why Women Rule the Internet is very interesting. It kinda make it seem that women do all the buying of pretty things however, I firmly believe that women play a huge part in building relationships & spinning the social web. Some things I found interesting: Facebook, Zynga, Groupon and Twitter …the majority of all four properties’ users are female. Make that “horsewomen”. Women played a key role in the early days (of Facebook) by adopting three core activities—posting to walls, adding photos and joining groups. (Why the guys came!) The average social gamer is likely a 43-year-old woman. Women follow more people, tweet more, and have more followers on average than men. Women are thought to be more social, more interested in relationships and connections, better at multi-tasking. Women are the routers and amplifiers of the social web. And they are the rocket fuel of ecommerce. The ongoing debate about women in tech has been missing a key insight.” Read the article here. If you wanna chat me about this kinda thinger  contact media AT casiestewart.com. Enjoy the day!

Writing

Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self.

Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self.

Title is a quote by Cyril Connolly an English intellectual, literary critic and writer. I learned this today while watching Criminal Minds. I was working on a couple blog posts for my .com while publishing tumblr, posterous, twitter & facebook. I have ADD. Hey tower. I really like that quote. I’ve been writing this blog for a while and although I have written for many other companies in different voices, the one I am most true to is my own. I began this blog to keep more memories and it started getting more popular as I got better at it.  We grew together and we are forever growing & changing. I find I’m my best when writing about something I really love & believe in. This is my life.  I can hear my Mum chuckle in my head, I’m reminded of her telling me how I loved myself and used to stare into the mirror for hours telling stories. Some things don’t change, I love me and life and I’m happy to share that light with you. I’d like to share this too. Optimism is contageous.

it’s players like these that are the future

Last year about 20 people like you who ready this bloggy  joined me for a TFC soccer game.  It was so much fun. My friend Jonathan hooked it all up and if I’m good maybe we can do it again this summer. I’m going to my first game this season on May 7th, the daye before my birthday (mark that day in your calendar and set a reminder). I kid I kid. 😛 The TFC just signed four kids from their youth academy. Check out this special video just for me from 18 year old Matt Stinson. Am I a cougar yet? Actually, I’ll stick with Puma. Remember that other time Lights gave mama a shoutout. Love her too.

Aisles turn to catwalks: Stolen Girlfriends Club SS 2011

Aisles turn to catwalks: Stolen Girlfriends Club SS 2011

I’ve told you about Stolen Girlfriends Club before,  most fav NZ designer. My girl Anna Fitzpatrick at Red Bull in NZ sent me this awesome vid of the SS SGC collection ‘Untitled’. Check out what they did… Stolen Girlfriends Club invade New World Victoria Park. Stolen Girlfriends Club present their Spring 2011 collection ‘Untitled’ Gone are the runways, front row seating, backstage, and media-only invite list. It was everyday shoppers who were treated to 20 beautiful models walking the aisles of a supermarket as if they were the cat walks of Milan. Music courtesy of White Lies – Peace and Quiet (33s remix) No runways, front row seating, backstage, or media-only invite list, for six minutes New World Supermarket (Auckland, been there) was taken over by models. The show was put together with Red Bull who have been lovers of their unconventional style since 2005. Marc Moore, design director of SGC, wanted to present ‘Untitled’ in a location that took fashion out of its usual context. “We thought about presenting our new collection in a total random and public place, we wanted it to be like a ‘fashion flash-mob’. It’s always a challenge to keep people on their toes in anticipation but I think that today’s show really did surprise”. She looks surprised… Todday I’m heading to lunch to meet a few friend who is giving me a NEW fancy camera. I am going to take so many photos of everything including myself . Haha. Someone from Global News is coming to interview me after that about being cool twitter/blog. I dreamed of this kinda stuff happening to me when I grow up. Have plans to do something fun this evening too. Life is good. Enjoy the sunshine today 🙂
