    Arm Candy: Nella Bella F/W 11

    The Nella Bella F/W 11 presentation, was definitely one of the highlights of my week. I know I say this all the time, but when you see the video you’ll understand what I’m talking about. I had such an AMAZING time. So many faces, so many hugs, kisses, laughter, GOOD FOOD, and the drinks… oh my G-d it was heavenly in there! For real. I felt so blessed to be amongst all these people that came out and showed their support for Tarek and his team. The festivities took place at the Design Exchange,  where we all got a chance to see the new Nella Bella F/W 11 collection, for both the men and the women. Now that’s how you do it.

    I loved the collection, let me tell you why. I’m really selective about my arm candy, simply because I’m big on comfort. I saw a NUMBER of pieces that I would be very very comfortable rocking. Oh man and the colours. I got all excited over the salmon pieces, I almost _ _ _ _ _ _ myself. lol. There was also a raffle (I won some Appleton Estate Jamaican Rum!), and some awesome swag that attendees were treated to, at the end of the night. To round it up, it was a great collection, real good vibes, good food, delicious drinks, tonnes of love in the room. Success.

    Look out for the video of the whole collection.

    Big shout-out to everyone, or as Alexxuss/Nicole would say “our little fashion family” that came out and supported Nella Bella; it was truly a pleasure to  spend another evening with you all.

    Thank you so much to Ally for inviting us, wishing you nothing but the BEST!

    peace, love and health

    ps: Did you know that Tarek’s pieces are available in over 55 retail stores across Canada, as well as online? Yes indeed.

    Lights, camera, FASHION

    Myself, Nick, TK and Arti (she’s a montreal based designer)

    LG Fashion Week FW 11 is here, and we are having so much FUN! Yesterday was my first day of LGFW festivities, and what a day it was. I loved, loved, LOVED the Micalla show, I was practically drooling with every piece that I saw… for real. I’m trying to retrieve the pictures off of a media card that decided to go psycho, right after the show was done, so stay tuned.

    I have video footage from the DUY, Krane, LOVAS, Comrags and Attitude by Jay Manuel shows; so if you weren’t able to attend, or missed these show, I got you boo! ha ha ha. I’ll be uploading the videos ASAP.

    I was totally impressed with the ATTITUDE by Jay Manuel collection, LOVAS stole my heart with the bows, the DUY collection was mm mmm good, and I dug the Krane show… even though I was worried those boys were going to break a neck or something with those acrobatics… Oh and shoutout to Christian for KILLING that runway in the Krane show 🙂

    Catch all my crazy #lgfw updates here

    stay fly!

    peace, love and health

    The Day I Met Dune

    Opening the first store in London, their humble single store beginning in ’93 has now grown to 44 standalone stores and 163 galleries (in stores like Selfridges) throughout the UK and Ireland. Dune is now also standing on the international stage, debuting in over 13 countries, predominantly in the Middle East.

    The subtle details and unique arrangements are what caught my attention and is doing so, increasingly, in a market near you.

    “hat person”

    I bought a black fedora from H&M about two years ago simply because I loved the idea of owning a fedora but not necessarily wearing it… I know, sometimes I’m weird like that.

    Anyway, it didn’t take long for me to start wearing it; in fact, I think I wore it the next day, and have worn it countless times since. It’s the perfect go-to accessory when you’re in a rush, goes well with pretty much anything…well except dressy gowns and such; I would suggest a top hat for such occasions! Fedoras are also the perfect addition to your outfit on days when you want to dress down and still look cute 🙂 Best part? Both women and men can rock a fedora, you just gotta find the right one (s) 🙂

    Fedoras and even top hats are as far as I’ll go with hats, so I’m not sure if that makes me a “hat person”. I really only own like 2 or 3 hats… that doesn’t make me a hat person can it? Does it? I’m just a girl that likes to occasionally wear a hat. However, I’m not a fitted kinda girl… some girls can definitely pull it off. So are you a “hat person?”
