A Year In Generally Cool Things

If you haven’t heard by now, we’ve made the conclusion that 2013 has been our biggest year yet. With a whole slew of creative projects and an ungodly amount of cross-coordinated outfits under our belts, it’s safe to say we really outdid ourselves this time around and we couldn’t be happier/prouder about it! Luckily, we’re […]

Worn Journal

Never got around to posting this feature of Bianca and I from Issue 15 of Worn Journal, a Toronto-based publication focusing on the personal stories of fashion. As long-time fans of the magazine, (and long-time fans of weird hair), we were so thrilled to be a part of the first issue in their newly designed […]

90’s

A few weeks ago I did a feature on Etsy shop FABITORIA, which is no doubt one of the best independent online stores I’ve seen. I styled the “#8” skirt with a high neck crop top and some soon-to-be-released Kastor & Pollux fall jewelry. My friend Sherry took these dazzling photos of me basking in […]

BaubleBar Sale

I don’t typically cover sales but this one’s got me all excited. I also get to use this new shop-the-look app that’s all scrolly and fun etc. I quit my part-time retail job so I’ll have loads of time to do sad things on the internet like window-shop and HTML code things!!! There’s nothing I […]

Deezdogg Bling

Lately I’ve been taking a surprising new route in terms of my shopping methods. Instead of gravitating towards crazy, cool, impractical, printed, neon, etc clothing, I’ve been making solid purchases of good quality neutral basics. So, when Leeza Meksin of Deezdogg Bling sent me some loud jewelry, I thought they’d go perfect with everything I […]

Back to School

I’m sure many if not all of you are dreading the return back to school in a few weeks. I know I’m definitely not looking forward to waking up early in the morning, forcing myself to look presentable in front of my incredibly stylish fashion communications class, and lugging my laptop and/or illustration materials (ie […]
