Target Love
When I was in Detroit for Canadian Thanksgiving, I visited Target for the first time. We don't have Target in Canada so this was very exciting for me! I'm a big bargain hunter and I have been eyeing all the pieces from the Target: GO International collections that keep on popping up in my favourite fashion blogs. I ended up coming home with a few ( Read more... ) -
Home Sweet Home (for now)
When I moved in with Michael I said that I would post pictures of our home, but I never did. I figure that now that we are moving it's the perfect time to show you some pictures ( Read more... ) -
Twenty Eight
So, going on the premise "If I make a sweet looking birthday invite....people will come", I've just put the finishing touches on my birthday invite. Michael helped me with this using Illustrator. I really like it, however I think some of the quality was lost when I uploaded it to FB & on here. sigh.

Not loving the Lucy look
I forgot to mention in my last update that I got my hair cut last week. I've been going to the same salon for 8 years and both stylists I have had have never disapointed in the slightest...until now (which is actually a pretty good track record if you ask me ( Read more... ) -
Meeting Zaki
After being under renovation for several months, this Tuesday the HMV near my work had a "re-opening party" which basically consisted of a bunch of free concerts throughout the day. I walked by there on my lunch break and noticed that Zaki Ibrahim (the singer I saw open for Erykah Badu last month) was playing, so I walked in and caught most of her ( Read more... ) -
A Weekend of Guilty Pleasures
The boyfriend is away for the weekend, which means I have the house to myself. I have really been looking forward to spending the whole weekend just relaxing at home, doing things that I enjoy while being totally lazy.
This is what I have planned so far....

For Toronto Fashion Magazine
Here is my entry for the Reporter Search 08 contestI love Toronto because you can find fashion inspiration in unexpected places. Tucked away in Mirvish Village, just steps away from the neon glow of Honest Ed’s is Space vintage. Space has everything that I look for in a vintage store: well-chosen pieces at bargain prices. My recent finds include a ( Read more... ) -
Getting Carried Away...
Hot pink is everywhere you look. Toronto has officially gone Sex and the City CRAZY. Many stores around Toronto have put out special SATC theme displays in honor of the movie release. My favorite so far has been David's shoe display. The store which was voted by Footwear News as one of the top 10 shoe stores in the world, has displayed shoes to ( Read more... ) -
Shoes, not boys
The other day I totally caved in and bought the black sandals I have been coveting for a couple of months.
I planned on buying them a few weeks ago, (yay income tax return!) but was really disappointed to find out that every shoe store that sells Steve Madden was sold out in my size. Even Zappos was sold out of a size 6! I had pretty much ( Read more... ) -
"It's bigger than the Government.....hip hop"
This week has been insane and has totally flown by....
Monday night I went to go see Erykah Badu at Massey Hall with sweetchastity. For the record sweetchastity is very lovely in person and I had a really good time meeting her. Once we got over the initial "omg, we know each other from the internet"-weirdness I think we hit it off really well ( Read more... )
