Casie, Lauren, Raymi: Toronto Bloggers & Life in the City

Hey look, it’s your fav Toronto Charlie’s Angels together again! Not too long ago Lauren, Raymi, and I were shot by Menkes for this corporate video about how much we love downtown life. Like, comment, share with yo friends.  I cruised around my fav area (current construction zone) Queen/Spadina. My condo is right up the street and I really feel I can do just about anything in this neighbourhood. There’s lots of places to eat, drink, shop, or just hang out. There’s always lots happening, the streets are busy, and you’re close to the water or highway for a quick getaway. Follow Menkes online at @MenkesLife and Facebook/MenkesLife. Music is friends band NIXON.

We are not living in eternity.

“Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand – and melting like a snowflake.” Marie Beyon Ray Wonderful day. Always on the go. Great party last night, thanks The Blog Studio and every narcissist out last night. See all the faces in the FB album. Got to meet Faris finally. Friends online for years, first IRL meeting. We are in this video. Feeling good about work. Loving life. Sunshine on the face. BBQ later. So many shows. Gifting lounges tomorrow w/ O’Nizz. Cinderella has nothing to wear to Rockstar Hotel or MMVAs. Please stay calm. Fiji Water delivered me a case today. Just in time for a killer weekend. Putting on Converse, jean shorts and a tshirt heading to see bands and a BBQ. NXNE FTW. MMVA madness tomorrow. Here we go. Come! I am thankful for iPhone. I love the renegade road blog. I’ll try to do my best this weekend as eyes & ears on the ground, finger on the pulse. I’m your Information DJ, signing off. And running late 😉

Pantone Process Yellow C

So, this just happened… Then I went to the beach. #OOTD top @stylemint, jeans @3Ffashions, Sperry shoes, cateye glasses @clearycontacts, @fyinktattoos, smileinstagr.am/p/LSuF9CyazE/ — CASIE STEWART (@casiestewart) May 31, 2012 I spent way too much time looking into this fiasco last night. I do not suggest looking up the video. I have been watching too many crime dramas and my curiosity got the best of me. Gross. This is my fav mug, Pantone Process Yellow C. Since I’ve got some ‘free time’ I’m going  o get a jump start on work I was going to leave till tomorrow. Meeting up with 3 of 4 of my sisters this afternoon for a patio bevvy. Stoked. We haven’t all hung out in ages! Enjoy the sunshine out there today. It’s beautiful! (Don’t forget sunscreen!)

SUMMER: @PepsiCanada taste challenge, #freebeer, patios!

This is the big rig that will be travelling across the country seeing millions of people go through the Ultimate Pepsi Taste Challenge. It converts from a truck to a full on Pepsi station to hang out in. They call it “Poptimus Prime“. This time last year I was hosting my own little Pepsi party for Pepsi Throwback. I’m sure you remember THIS: The team has a whole bunch of stuff planned and there’s a good chance you’ll run into their young energetic group assembled with people from across Canada. This is a full 360 of what I saw at the media preview taken from iPhone. You’ll notice they’re really using technology to make the ol’ taste test we knew as kid, super modern. Check out their Facebook/PepsiCanada for when & when to catch ‘Poptimus Prime’ and the @PepsiCanada team. MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOR! Hey look, Shannon was on the board as I was AT the challenge! TALK ABOUT SOCIAL! In the afternoon I caught the Bud Light Mojito truck giving out free beers. Rumour has it they will be around MuchMusic all month and near King Spadina. Two drinks, perfect for afternoon stop in the park. When you are on the go 25/8/366 you are likely to run out of iPhone battery. Bobcat from Boston sent me this rad charger for my birthday. Charge at home, keep in purse for on the go. It gives you about two hours talk time. Essential for beach party, park chilling and boat rides. Made by Brookstone. Next stop was William’s Landing in Liberty Village for the launch of Somersby Cider by Carlsberg. This is the Carlsberg man John Porter. Cute accent! Sat in the sun with the lovely Carla Catherwood and Cory Lee. I’m not much of a cider girl but surprisingly, it…

Get off the couch.

Went for a run this afternoon after getting inspired a post by titled ‘Women, Fitness & The Myth‘ written by by Bangs & a Bun. She’s one of my fav writers and my fav UK blogger. I’ve been followung her for years and seeing her progress in business, blogging and fitness is motivating. Her latest venture Spikes & Heels is what got me to put on my shoes and kick some pavement. I’m so glad I did! It’s an incredibly beautiful day in the city. Took this using 360 Panoramic app in iPhone from  hTO Park (Urban Beach) which is right beside the lake. If you stand on this one certain rock you can perfectly hide the CN Tower. Empire Sandy, looking dandy. I’d love to go on a sail for my birthday. A sail for let’s say, 30 people? 30th birthday. Does anyone know who can make this happen? It would be magical. Somebody was backed up at Lower Spadina. Shadow play 🙂 Toronto Music Garden is one of my most favourite places in the city. This tower has a beautiful story, if you go there you’ll see it. One time Keri and I did this MEGA Planking thing for ‘World Plank Day‘ in 2011 when it was cool for like a week. Most of them were done in the music garden, see here. It’s almost Earth hur for Earth Day and I’m planning to be out of the house. Have a great night! <3 CASIE

I live in the clouds. It’s like a dream. I like it here.

View from my balcony when I woke up. We got a huge blanket of fog this morning. I find the fog so beautiful, fascinating. I live in the clouds. It’s like a dream. I like it here. So pretty. In no time, the buildings on the west side were gone and so was the CN Tower. Welcome to Spring my friends 🙂 10:30am update, fog almost gone!

MAKE THE MOST OF EVERY DAY

Went for a cruise on Queen Street and biked through the park. Have an hour before my next work related call so I skipped down to the urban beach downtown Toronto to soak up some sunshine. It’s beautiful out. I’m so happy it’s not chilly anymore. There are so many people out, smiling, biking, walking etc. I didn’t do this enough last summer so I’m determined to make the very most of each day this year. One day I’ll be working in an office again and probably won’t be able to max out mid day like this, which is cool, but until then, company mandate to get as much vitamin D as possible. With love from the beach, XO CASIE <3

MasterCard Fashion Week: Chloé Comme Parris – FW 2012

Black pantsuits were de rigueur at the Chloé Comme Parris’ Fall/Winter 2012 show.  If it wasn’t a pants suit, it was bauble-studded epaulettes on three quarter length black latex inspired bondage tops, beige sheer blouses (with more studs) or aggro trench coats worthy of any self-respecting trench coat mafia. The second movement showed off their outerwear collection that accessorized  with what was either mink,  coyote , or some other Nordic animal’s pelt embedded as collars or as full-length, high-shouldered vests.  The Celtic braided headdress style, combined with the edgy fairy-like gowns left more than a few fans wondering if  the Chloé Comme Paris sisters (Chloe & Parris) might have spent a good time of the last year watching Game Of Thrones on repeat. – JESSE
