@Guess Spring 2014 Media Preview
We went over to The Spoke Club on King Street to check out the new Guess Spring 2014 collection. I really liked a lot of the pieces, especially a pair of white sandals with a golden rectangular heel, a gorgeous red bag, and a couple pretty dresses and shiny rings! My style is usually full of prints and bright colours, and I tend to dress really girly during the spring so, some of the pieces were right up my alley! Rachel from GUESS New York was also there to give us the goods on the new collection. We enjoyed some drinks and treats while browsing through and occasionally drooling over some of the pieces.Let us know what you think!
So cute! #guess

Event LOVE: Private Dinner @MichaelsOnSimcoe #michaelseoe
***DISCLAIMER*** You’re going to need a bib, a napkin, maybe even a towel before, during and after this, because it’s about to get real tasty around here!!
We were invited to attend the media launch of Michael’s on Simcoe, a modern Italian Steakhouse that playfully combines the best in contemporary cuisine, located in the heart of the Financial and Entertainment Districts of downtown Toronto . I didn’t understand what they meant when they said that it was Toronto’s best kept secret, but by the time I had a bite of my first appetizer, I knew exactly why!
They promised us an evening of elegance and I can honestly say that they delivered on that promise and more! The event was supposed to start at 7:30pm, but they decided to spoil us even more and invited select media to a private dinner hosted by Moët & Chandon before the actual dinner! I can’t describe how fast I got dressed just so I could get there already.
We were greeted with a tall, crisp glass of champagne and then led to the bar area where we were showered (yes that’s what it felt like)… we were showered with all kinds of delicious appetizers and of course more champagne. We hadn’t even sat down at the table and I was already getting full, but I wore a loose dress just so I could taste and savour everything that they had to offer! So now, enough talking. Sit back, relax (don’t forget your bib, if you haven’t started drooling already 🙂 ) and enjoy!
…when you have to take a #selfie because you need to show much you’re really enjoying the food, but you’re so full and you won’t stop, and even though you’re not smiling, your eyes show just how HAPPY you are! Yes. 
There was so much wine throughout the evening, and not one empty glass! 
classy washrooms… 
So what are my thoughts on Michael’s On Simcoe? I think I’ve already made it pretty clear that the food was fantastic! If I were to give my overall experience a rating out of 10, I would give them a 10. The wines were perfectly paired throughout our meal, and the staff? The staff took service to a whole new level, they knew the menu and their wines inside out, they were super attentive, friendly without being invasive, and accommodated every single request. Top notch service. Would I recommend it? Well if I have to recommend it after these pictures then I’m not sure you deserve all that goodness! I kid, Of Course you should go. You have to go.
Thank you so much to the Michael’s on Simcoe team for a truly amazing and elegant evening, and to Meg and the EPR team; THANK YOU for always taking such good care of us 🙂 xo
Cheers!

Event LOVE: @WMCFashionWeek Funtimes pt.5
QUEENS. Elana, Bella, Septembre, Asa and Kathleen 🙂 #wmcfw I have to admit that for the first time in a long time, I was actually really sad to see fashion week go 🙁 Even though I was exhausted by the end of it all; the fun times totally outweighed all of that, and now I have so many beautiful memories to tide me until next season! The last day was extra special as it was Elana’s 25th birthday, so after the shows we headed over to King Street to celebrate her champagne born day! I know I’ve said it over and over, but to all of you that I got to reconnect with, as well as meet for the first time; thank you, thank you for making this World MasterCard Fashion Week SS14 a beautiful one.
LOVE. EVERYTHING #wmcfw

Event LOVE: @WMCFashionWeek Funtimes pt.1
Fun times with some of our favourite bloggers, media and fashionistas during World MasterCard Fashion Week ss14 World MasterCard Fashion Week strutted into town with so much fabulousness that it swept us off of our stilettos; leaving us with a plethora of awesome memories, and seriously lusting after some of the pieces that we saw on the runway/studio!
The volunteers were amazing this season! The weather was terrible this season, but that didn’t stop us from coming out to play and reconnecting with our favourite fashionistas! The tents were buzzing with fashion talk, the Ritz Carlton was serving some delicious macarons and apple cider, there lots of hugs and kisses from all the men and women connecting and reconnecting while they excitedly waited to see the shows, , did I mention that everyone was dressed so nicely?! We also got to catch up with some of our favourite fashion blogger friends as well as make new ones! It was a fantastic day one!
I hope you all had an awesome fashion week!

Our Week in Toronto
I had so much fun visiting my cousin this past week in Toronto for mid autumn festival and eating moon cake! Tai and I had fun rediscovering the city I moved away from 3 years ago. We tried to see as many friends as we could but of course time is limited when you are rushing around.
We went to LEE on King St, Susur Lee is a genius chef fusing Hong Kong x French cuisine style
The DUCK!
The next day we went to FRESH for Quinoa Onion Rings and Buddha Bowl with Soba
Pastries at Nadege
Then home cooked meal with my family!
Shopping on Queen St W
See you next time Toronto!
