Friday night date.
Outfit deets:  F21 jacket, DKNY tee, Urban Planet pants & necklace, Aldo wedge boots (my newly modified ones) & vintage clutch


On Saturday, as some of you know, I hosted the Place d'Orleans #MYVIPNIGHT at the mall.  You guys know that I am the mall's fashion vlogger--and create monthly videos for them--and so it was really exciting when they asked me to host this cool event.  Tickets were $20 and all the proceeds went to Dress for Success.  There was a fabulous chocolate table, cocktails, music, a photo booth, it was catered and mini-make-up applications were being done too. I'm going to do a full recap of it this week, so stay tuned for more photos.

Part of the evening was a shoe fashion show with these lovely local bloggers.  I pulled three pairs of shoes for each girl from various retailers at the mall that agreed to participate.  The shoes ranged from boots to pumps to flats & it went really well.  This is a shot of us all afterwards, at the photo booth, in our own shoes.


Post #MYVIPNIGHT at Montana's with my man & my bestie; burgers for everyone!


On Sunday morning we hit the gym then travelled to Kingston to visit family for the day and have an early Thanksgiving meal.


This is my not my favourite picture but I wanted to show you the apple tree in my boyfriend's parents' back yard!  Here's a fun fact: this tree grows five different types of apples--what?!--and I have no idea how, but I saw it with my own eyes.
Outfit deets:  unknown faux leather jacket (from Winners), Joe Fresh sweater dress (last year), Sirens leggings & necklace, Rampage boots, Ardene over-the-knee socks

Finally relaxing at 10pm on Sunday night with a veggie stir fry & YouTube.  What a busy--but enjoyable--weekend!

Happy Monday!


#MYVIPNIGHT is happened on Saturday, October 5 from 5pm - 7pm at Place d'Orleans Mall in Ottawa. Thanks to everyone who came out and I met; it was great evening!

I'm over at Fashion Translated today talking about how I got started with this little blog, my favourite trends for Fall, a secret you might not know about me and more.

Come on over & join me.



Fall is in full swing here in Ottawa and September was a great month.  Marco & I celebrated our one year anniversary, I pulled some boots from my shoe collection that have only seen the outdoors once (a while back) and I took Peanut for a weekend at the beginning of the month.

I shared my workout routine of late, got my hands--finally--on a pair of Romy's from Shoemint and celebrated a girlfriend's birthday.  I ordered and received my new business cards (more on that soon)  and took a photography course to learn how to use a DSLR camera.

I rocked my new camo pants, had some wedge boots shortened and visited with my almost two-month old nephew--who's weighing now at 14 pounds!  I purchased some new boots--Givenchy knock-offs--which I'm obsessed with, went to a party with friends and received flowers from Mel Mac

Sarah and I filmed the BFF Tag video, I filmed a Fall Fashion video for my PDO gig and spent the last Saturday of the month jacket-less while running errands with my man.
