its that time of year again

every year, just when we are starting to get ghostly pale and are beginning to pack on the first of the hibernation pounds a one hour 'holiday' special is released that makes us fine ladies consider getting extensions and purchasing the entire set of guerlain's terracotta bronzing collection.  

the victoria's secrete fashion show is all about glitz, glam and goddess like women. i can only dream of walking on that diamond encrusted catwalk. so lets just lay it all out there, im a huge fan. although this production is mostly about tna i think that the set and costume design is fantastic, the production technique and energy is outstanding and it achieves its final goal in a poignant and seductive way: make $$$. after i watch this show in just less then i weeks time i will be running to my local boudoir and getting all kinds of diamond encrusted, neon laced and bedazzled undergarments for no one to see but myself. sexy factor 1000. 

so here you are, the highlights. and if you feel the need to watch the entire thing it is displaying in 6 days time, next tuesday eve. 

in honor of the show i will be curling my hair to the perfect wave, applying a shimmerly glow to my entire body and wearing my most extreme push-up. i need my gym membership back.

stop calling your arms guns

the gym, a concept all its own.


lets lift weights, grunt and all sweat together. if i join in, by june, will look like giselle?

passion for canadian fashion

this week i had the opportunity to volunteer at toronto fashion week. i was stationed in the runway room and had one of the most inspiring and exhilarating experiences just being able to help out and witness the creativity and effort that goes into making the event possible.

i was aware of a few canadian designers but being new to the fashion scene i wasnt completely in the know. let me tell you, canada has got some serious talent. the first show i saw was holt renfrew which was a cute conglomeration of all the canadian lines they carry such as greta constantine, todd lynn and even canada goose. next was izma, show casing the most fantastic of furs. a few thousand pelts were used in that show.

korhani, originally a rug company, showed an out of this world line. it was like a take back to some 70's acid trip, falling down the rabbit hole in alice in wonderland. the shan show just made me want to tan and not want to eat. i also was able to witness the denis gagnon runway collection which was just out of this world wild. fuschia knit fur sweaters and brilliant turquoise maxi skirts. creative genius but i dont think we will be seeing it hit the streets of toronto this fall.

the youngsters in the group were the ladies of chloé comme parris. they put on a great show and seriously how much do you need to accomplish before you are even 25. seriously, these sisters are making the rest of us look bad. i left the exhibition feeling revitalized and inspired all over again. i also have been on the stability ball and hitting the gym almost everyday since. so as fashion week comes to an end i remain content with my choice to become involved in this invigorating industry!

its just...a little crush

i think its hilarious that most of the time when im checking someone out, its a girl not a guy. recently it seems as though vogue is having a model search and its happening while i ride the streetcar downtown. i am staring at these beings, gobstruck and i just want to say sorry...i cant take my eyes off your bag, shoes, hair, everything! im a creep. i am so obvious its obnoxious. i need to be more stealth.

like when i worked at the bay for ysl and was obsessed with this girl who worked at mac. she was just the coolest looking person in the world. she said she would add me to facebook. no friend request was ever received. i bet she lost my email...and forgot my name. bummmer.

my top girl crush will always be giselle bündchen. i told my trainer that by the summer i want to have a body like her. he said he could make it happen. he is definitely a liar. i am no brazilian goddess and all i want to do is eat bricks of balderson and litres of häagen-dazs. meh, im over it already. i really just need a tan. why do i live in this land of ice?
