{style: a spring photo shoot}
In honour of the first day of spring (and ignoring the snow outside) I thought I would show a recent spring-like photo shoot. In retail, like most seasonal industries, you work really far ahead. So you’re shooting Christmas in July, Valentines at Christmas and in this case, Mother’s Day in January. Finding props and clothing…

{design: update your wallpaper}
What’s one of the best things about having a million different pieces of technology these days? Having a million really cool desktop designs of course. Leave it to Marimekko to suck me in with their crazy bold and colourful graphics you can download to dress up your tech. They release a monthly desktop calendar but…

{drink like the Irish}
Ok, so maybe not the most authentic Irish. I’ll be honest. I don’t love beer. Actually I don’t really even like it. (Gasp!) But you can still celebrate St. Patrick’s day with some of these delicious seasonal cocktails. The beer drinkers will be green with envy. Have a great St. Patrick’s Day weekend! Recipes: 1…

Can we all just take a moment and appreciate how AMAZING Ms. Turner looks at the age of 73 in the current cover for Vogue Germany.

{to the Max}
I’ve been a big fan of Max Wanger for awhile. I’m most familiar with his romantic/engagement/wedding photography, which I’ve blogged about before. It was only recently that I discovered his fashion photography. I love his lighting, the pops of colour and feeling of whimsy in his fashion photos. The fashion industry can take itself a…

{places: Chicago}
Last weekend I went to visit a friend in Chicago. It was my first time in the Windy City. I’ve heard tons of amazing things about Chicago and was happy to go. I would love to go back with ALL of my friends and do everything there is to do. I might need to look…

{bloomin}
There’s still some lingering blooms from last week’s photoshoot. In fact I think these ranunculus’ actually look even better now. They are my all favourite flower.

{in the window}
Fashion is always ahead of the game. One of my favourite things about retails is the window displays. So much room for creativity. I’m loving the current windows at J. Crew (Fairview Mall, Toronto). I welcome the early spring fashions and colours during these chilly days. Maybe these windows were in the back of my…

{STYLE: sweet soles}
Ok, you caught me. I am nowhere near the age of 21 but I was cruising the Forever21 website after visiting the store today. I didn’t realize they had so many freak’n cute shoes! Here is just a few of my favourites. These days I’m more about comfort so I was checking out the flats.…

{virtual reality}
It’s so interesting to see something evolve. Instagram, the program we all know and love is going to be jumping off your smartphone and into your sweaty little palm. That’s right, this awesome instagram update is on the way, that cute little vintage camera icon is becoming a reality thanks to Polaroid. Take a look:…

{spaces: february florals}
February blues? What blues? Not when you can bring spring into your home. One of the perks of being an Art Director is that every once and awhile you can take home the props. Today we did a shoot for Mother’s Day (pics to come) which involved some beautiful Spring flowers, including my all time…

{travel: beautiful vietnam}
Traveling is amazing. It opens your eyes to other parts of the world and let’s you see how others live. It’s filled with highs and lows and always challenges you. It helps you grow and your experiences become part of you. This is just a taste of what Vietnam gave me. Thank you!

{winter style}
Don’t hate me but….I love winter. There I said it. I especially love a crisp sunny winter day and bundling up with lots of fun & colourful gear.
