My Girl Mae West Said…
Don’t fade to black, don’t be a wallflower, don’t repeat an outfit, don’t put on nude lipstick, don’t skip the mascara, don’t choose flats over heels…

My Weekend with @Ford Focus
What a super fun weekend I had with my family for Chinese New Year in Toronto. To kick of the lunar new year right, my first stop right after our flight landed was straight to Oakville to the Ford HQ.
Ford has developed an amazing relationship with bloggers and lent me the brand spanking new Ford Focus to test drive. THANK YOU!
The Focus was easy to handle and a pleasure to drive. The headrest and bucket-like seats were comfy with fully automated seat adjustment. The side mirrors were easy to adjust and also clear as day – very important for safety especially when you are an Asian female driver! My favorite part is that the driver and passenger side have their own temperature control for heating/cool air and there are seat warmers for 5 different levels of heat. My bum is usually warm so I kept it at 1!
This car is extremely fuel efficient and 1 tank of gas lasted me 5 days of downtown, uptown, Scarborough and all around driving. The interior had a cream and black leather seats hat made if feel sporty and luxurious. I love the way it looks, feels, drives and preforms!Lots of Ford Event coming up like the Ford’s Blue Party at Liberty Grand in Toronto on Feb 10 at 7pm andthe all day Ford x Style Caster Fashion Week Kick off conference Feb 7th here in New York City.

Hey Boyfriend: Try @AQUIESSE Candles
One of my favorite things about a great smelling man is one who also has a great smelling home. A fool proof way to tell the difference between Mr Right and Mr Right Now is how his makes his space comfortable and amazing for you. Mr Right Now sprayed Febreze all around the house 5 mins before you came over and Mr Right has a AQUIESSE candle and some Norah Jones playing and he’s cooking you dinner. Okay maybe I am imagining the dinner part but… you gotta dream a little.
AQUIESSE has quickly become a leader in the home fragrance area, with an innovative, classic and timeless product line recognized for exceptional quality and value.
Coveted by the most discerning fragrance connoisseurs, chic shoppers and celebrities alike, AQUIESSE is distinguished in its mastery of exquisite fragrance compositions inspired by nature.

Five Dollars with @TikaSimone & @AFilmByRez
Tika Simone is making her first short film, and she needs ALL your support so that she can bring it to life. The working title for the short film is “Five Dollars”, and Tika made a video so that she can give you all the necessary details.
WHAT IS FIVE DOLLARS? It’s a short film starring Tika Simone about a single mother’s time brought into conflict with raising her son.
THE REASON FOR THIS SHORT FILM? “…because single mothers are pretty amazing and we want to do something beautiful that not only pays homage to them but also brings some much deserved light to their daily struggle. On a more personal level, Tika was raised by a single mother so the script was especially touching to her. Needless to say, she is VERY passionate about it.”- Reza Dahya (Director)
WHERE IS THE MONEY GOING? For this story to be told effectively, the visuals also need to be beautiful and touching. The money will go towards the following things:
– camera rental (including all the peripheral needs)
– lights + stands etc
– food for the cast + crew for a 2-day shoot
– truck rental + gas to transport everything
– possible location fees
– post production fees like getting master tapes/Blu-rays in order to submit the film to film festivalsMake sure you show them some L-O-V-E and support! Donate here 🙂
peace and love
♥Bella♥
