Nella Bella SALE!

Starting at 8AM tomorrow for one day only my favourite Toronto hand bag designer will be hosting a super, mega, extreme and only slightly crazy sale on their website. We’re talking prices as low as $4.95 CDN, that’s basically like handing you a pretty bag and asking you to donate half the price of a movie ticket in exchange for…

Soya Skin

Thanks to the team at Tdot TV and their unbelievable TIFF lounge last month I was introduced to Soya Boutique. Soya is a skin care brand developed by former model, and downright stunner, Melani Chong. Melani worked as a model for many years and found that the frequent travel had a terrible effect on her skin, so she started making her…

Fresh Canteen

Woah, guys I know it’s been WAY too long since I’ve posted but between Boyfriend, family visits, work and a nasty cold I’ve barely had time between coughing fits to breath let alone blog. But I’m back now. Last night Boyfriend and I tried Fresh Canteen for dinner; Fresh Canteen is a service located in Toronto that allows you to…

#TDotTVLounge

How excited am I for TIFF? Very. Seriously a lot. ALL OF THE EXCITEMENT. I love how Toronto comes alive during the festival, I love the fashion, I love the energy but most of all I love that my city becomes the thing of legends and stories. On Saturday I’ll be hitting up my first TIFF gifting lounge thanks to the fine folks…

#DLTCanada

In a post cronut burger world, some brands still aren’t afraid to have a little fun with food or at least Taco Bell isn’t afraid to. Today Taco Bell Canada announced the launch of the Doritos Locos Taco, if you’ve been absent from the internet for the past year the Doritos Locos Taco is a taco shell made out of…

#MeetMotoX

Yesterday evening I joined several friends at the #MeetMotoX launch party for the all-new Moto X from Motorola. I’m a huge fan of Motorola and Android, last year I was gifted a Motorola RAZR at a similar event and I still use it to this day. I’ve gotten in more than one fight with friends and Apple fanboys alike about…

Facebook Listens… No Really!

Today Facebook announced that promotions on brand pages no longer have to be administered via an app! Woot! This is great news and I may have definitely sent an all staff encouraging my team members to rejoice and toast things with libations. In other news I’m incapable of announcing anything in any way other than the most dorky of ways.…

Shiny Things

Jewellery is one of my favourite things; I don’t have much that I wear daily aside from my claddagh ring  and a seashell necklace that I bought off Etsy, because I love the ocean, but last month I won a bracelet on the Jeff Morrison Fine Jewellery Facebook page. Today my brand new favourite shiny thing arrived, the piece is…

The Ocean at the End of the Lane

Reading is one of my favourite activities which is probably strange for a loud, bouncing girl who hates to sit still but it is. Today I FINALLY found a store that wasn’t sold out of Neil Gaiman‘s latest novel, Ocean at the End of the Lane, it’s mine now; at least it will be until I share it with my best…
