top5.

I've never liked February. It's always feels like a slump month, and literally it is the dead of winter. 

However, this year, February has kept me on my toes, teaching, going to shows, with interesting work projects, reconnecting wtih some unexpected people and so much more. 

With just a few more weeks until some (hopefully) warmer weather, I'll take an early catch of spring fever any day. 

In honour of the month, my Top 5 are a little more whimsical. 

Hair chalk. 

I have always lusted for a touch of pink in my hair. I'm considering trying out a hair mascara or clip in extensions (just for fun). If you know a good brand, lemme know! 

NYWF. 

I've loved following the shows at New York Fashion Week over social media this year. With Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Vine and more, it feels like you're almost there. 

For now, Style.com's through show reviews do just fine. Even better paired with a cup of tea. 

Wicked Game. 

I heard a cover of "Wicked Game"by Chris Issak at a show last week, and have had this version on repeat ever since. 

"The Box Presents" - Evoke. 

Dancers, aerialists, singers (and yours truely) will be performing at this showcase of Toronto talent on March 2 - I'm very excited to see my peers hit the stage in a piece I helped co-choreograph. Check out the event link and leave me a comment if you're interested in tickets!

Mantra.

Wise words from one of my favourite musicians. 

fallrtw2011.

It's the most wonderful time of the year! New York Fashion Week as taken over the Internet and life, streaming shows across the world - how wicked is that to make high fashion accessible to the masses? Here's my favourite looks of fall 2011 RTW (ready-to-wear) that I've scanned through during my busy week of midterms, appointments and running in heels!

Marc by Marc Jacobs
I've been obsessed with the shorts suit, planning to make it my spring uniform. I've also been dressing a lot in 70's-esque clothes lately, hence my admiration for these glasses, wide-legged pants and chiffon dresses. Add a fringe bag, and there's my look for now and the fall.



Rodarte. The craftsmanship is immpecable. Laura and Kate Mulleavy must have some magic in their fingers and their eyes for detail are unparalelled.


Betsey Johnson
Leather, lace and leopard with large flowers. Is is possible to combine everything I love into one fashion show? Just divine, merci to my favourite designer.


This is making me more excited for Toronto LG Fashion Week coming up in March! I'm so impressed by Canadian designers year after year who are starting to make their mark worldwide, and am hoping to sit in the audience (and not work backstage) this year!
