Life as an Intern @FordModels_CA
About a month ago I received an e-mail from one of my teachers regarding an amazing opportunity to intern for the well known modelling agency, Ford Models. I immediately fixed up resume and sent it in, and a week later I was heading to the agency for an interview. I think you know where this story is going, and if you guessed that I got the internship than you’re right!
I have been...

H&M is on a roll this year with all of their designer collaborations. Just this week they released news of their next collaboration, with Marni, an Italian brand designed by Consuelo Castiglioni. Unlike the Versace collaboration, this one will be made up of both’s womenswear and menswear, as well as shoes, jewelry, and other accessories. H&M seems to be a big fan of prints and bold...

I fell in love with these beauties while in Mendocino the other day. Ever since I came across them I have been thinking about them. I find that I have been doing that a lot lately with items from Mendocino. They had the most gorgeous circle scarf in there last week, and I waited a couple of days to buy it, which clearly was a huge mistake as they were sold out when I went back. So sad. If I...

Lavish and Squalor 253 Queen Street West
Such a good corner of goodies in the store. Those leather shorts are awesome, and that long sleeve black body suit beside them is pretty rad too. Not to mention the jacket and bag hanging above all of this? Ahh I want it all. If I had endless amounts of money to spend on clothes I would buy this whole store.

Six London x The Man Repeller
The famous Man Repeller, Leandra Medine, has collaborated with Six London to create a pair of spiked heels that are out of this world fierce. These ankles booties are as Leandra says, “business in the front, and party in the back”. They are navy blue suede, with the heel and toe finished with burgundy suede. All along the back of the heel are golden spikes, and they do up with a side...

Karl Lagerfeld x Sephora →
Omg, omg. This is unreal news. Until right now I had no idea that Karl Lagerfeld was creating a beauty collection for Sephora. Now that I know I am going to do everything in my power to get my hands on it. I know it’s only available in Singapore and Europe but there has to be someway to get it. I would be more than happy if I could get a hold of the nail polish. eBay here I come!!

BANG BANG
Check out these awesome pieces of jewelry. A very talented girl in the jewelry course at George Brown College makes these necklaces, rings, and earrings out of old bullet casings. I think they could be such a cool addition to any outfit. Each piece costs anywhere between $100 and $200!

Boys, Boys, Boys
I know I don’t have too many boy followers, and I hardly ever comment on men’s fashion (my apologies, I love it all, but it’s a lot to keep up with both men’s and women’s), but I felt as though I had to share this. Yesterday afternoon I did some shopping before work, and went into one of my favourite stores on Queen West, Lavish and Squalor, and was taken aback by...

Free People Favourites
After doing some online ‘window shopping’ on Free People, I had to share with you a few of my favourite winter pieces (key word: few. I am in love with 98% of their clothing). First off, before I show you anything we need to talk about how cute and cozy their winter Snow Angel collection looks! Going through the look book made me made to curl up in front of a fire with some hot...

Yet again we have another amazing collaboration with a talented designer and Aldo.

The boots first appeared in February for Cota’s Fall 2011 show, and the collection became available at Aldo stores at the beginning of October. There are two...

Shop with HRH
I have made yet another online purchase, and bought another bracelet, surprise surprise. I came across HRH Collection thanks to a friend I go to school with. She brought the collection to my attention and I have lusted over it since. This particular bracelet is the Ombre bracelet, and is only $35! When I first started checking out the products almost everything was out of stock, but today all...

DJ Turntable
While doing my daily Tumblr lurk the other day I came across a picture of a sick DJ turntable ring, exactly like this:
None of the blogs that had posted or reposted this picture gave an explanation as to where it was from or how you could go about getting it, so I went on a little hunt. For the first couple of days I could only find knock-offs of this ring on eBay that weren’t nearly as...

Lottie Moss
Shortly after Kate Moss’ wedding, model scouts started hounding her younger, 13 year old sister. It is quite obvious why, as Lottie Moss is absolutely stunning! No modelling agency had the privilege of signing Lottie on as her Mother was very firm in stating that she was too young, and would make a decision about modelling when she was older.
It seems as though the tables have slightly...
Today I am starting a new internship, which I’m so excited for! The outfit I chose to wear is posted below. I didn’t want to overdress nor did I want to be underdressed. The top is from City Downtown, pants are BDG and the shoes are from Aldo.
