Hello Kitty is 35!


My favourite character ever. The most adorable creature.. Hello Kitty! She will be celebrated at Three Apples in Sanrio's festival from October 23rd to November 15th. This will be held at Royal/T in Culver City, California.

Three Apple's you ask? It's because Three Apples is actually named in a nod to Hello Kitty’s weight as listed in her official bio. Plus if you haven't noticed, it's Fall! The exhibition is curated by Jamie Rivadeneira. She is an LA boutique owner. Also, some proceeds will go to LA Works. This is a volunteer action centre. For more info check it out here! <3

what do you get when 2 elegant objects are combined?


Piper Heidsieck, the champagne manufacturer and Christian Louboutin are teaming up. Now you try and put two and two together but you can't think of anything?! But you see if you mix our fav shoes and bubble together you get "Le Rituel" Box Set. This includes a bottle of champagne and a glass shoe. It will be available October 26th! <3

song of the day: Animal



Such a messed song but I effing love it by Miike Snow. It's so happy! If you think you've heard it before. It's because it was the last song of yesterday's Gossip Girl but a different rendition by Crookers. <3

another good photoshoot of Megan Fox


...as you know. Don't like this girl's usual whorish looks. Yeah it works for her, but I just hate girls that act sexy and are cocky about it. And that's the way she comes across. On screen and in the magazine anyway. But in the latest edition of Nylon, she looks her age. And is dressed stylish and appropriately. And that I do respect! Have to say.. she's looking a tad like Lindsay Lohan though.. <3

The September Issue Trailer



We've all been waiting for this Vogue documentary called The September Issue. Well at least I am. I can't wait! Here's the trailer! <3

Scarlett x Mango

Scarlett Johansson is the new face for Mango and she looks high fashion. I never really see her as a high fashion person but she pulls it off in the first picture.. <3

the modern day Cinderella





Want to meet your true prince charming?! Well it's going to cost you! Check out these Maison Martin Margiela glass slippers. At least the one good thing is that you won't go back to your sloppy self at midnight! But these delicate heels will cost you $2,580 or one for $1,277. Oyy. <3

Lady Gaga doing it for The Fame



Check out this video (takes a minute for the video to come through). I would have never guessed who this was! Why, it's Lady Gaga without the Gaga! Just as her normal self Stefani Germanotta. She had long dark boring hair and is just.. normal! No crazy outfits, no sight of a penis and no lashes! This was 3 years back. Who knew she could transform so much. Here she is performing in NYC at a club called The Bitter End. <3

VS competition!


Do you want to be in the next Victoria's Secret fashion show?! I do! But I'm way to scared! Anyhow, Victoria's Secret is having a nationwide (US of course...) model search for the next Runway Angel.

The competition begins October 3 in New York City (it wouuuld be!) There will be 4 casting calls in Miami, LA, Chicago and of course NYC. For registration details click here. You can also enter online October 1 to October 24. Judges will choose 10 finalists to fly them to NYC for Angel Boot Camp.

The winner will be by viewer's choice, and they will walk in Victoria's Secret Fashion Show December 1 on CBS!!!!

To qualify, you have to be ages 18-30 and be 5'8" or taller. That's without heels ladies. Everyone's predicting they are doing this competition cuz so many angels are pregnant! Eeks! <3

It's a Girl's Life


Tonight I went to this event called It's a Girl's Life. It was downtown at The Bay in Vancouver. It was put on by Fashion Merchandising Students at Vancouver Community College. There was free drinks, food, and lots of free little giveaways. It was quite deliciously entertaining. But sometimes I really wonder WHY people go to school for this. I guess it looks good on paper, but really!? Those outfits are outfits which I wear sometimes or something I could throw together in a snap. And they get the credit. Oy. Plus the models were so amateur. But overall it was a pretty nice event. <3

This girl's outfit was cute! I liked her gloves.

She was my favorite/prettiest/professional model. She knew she owned it.

song of the day: Meet Me Halfway



This song by the Black Eyed Peas reminds me of a super old 80s song mixed with LMFAO. The sound of it anyways. I like it though! Can you Meet me Halfway! <3

Jimmy Choo x H&M leaked!

So Jimmy Choo and H&M designs have been leaked. Alot of people are loving them but as for me. They're alright. Not really my style. I'm slightly disappointed, but that saves waiting in line and waking up early on November 14th! <3

movie review: Love Happens





Yesterday I went to see that new movie Love Happens with Jennifer Aniston. Honestly, it wasn't very good at all!! I thought that it would be more about Jennifer Aniston falling in love, but it wasn't! It was more so based on the guy in the movie and his job. It was alright. I dunno. They definitely didn't have to pay Jennifer Aniston the amount of money they did to get her. They could have used any girl! Anyhow, the movie was supposed to be based in Seattle but parts of it were filmed in Vancouver at the Hyatt! That was the best part. Also, alot of it was in Gastown. I guess that Gastown does sort of look like Seattle! <3

Louboutin's short film




Christian Louboutin has created Psycho-Logic a short film for his NEW Rodeo Drive boutique. It's very Hitchcock Psycho. And all of a sudden she enter her dream world of shoes. Weird. It's like shoe heaven! <3

Rumours! Rumours! Rumours!! We're not 100% sure about this but rumour has it that Jean Paul Gaultier is teaming up with Target for the next Designer Collabo series! Gaultier's people have declined to comment and Target people say, "We don't have anything to share other than we admire his work and incredible design aesthetic". Common Target! Make ladies dreams come true! <3

quote of the day

insight. inmind. inlove.


I've been going a few things lately. Not just me. People around me as well. So I've got to thinking. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm right. It's my opinion from my knowledge.

Live without regrets because it has already passed us. We may get the feeling of regret but suck up the situation because it can only get better from here. Every decision that you have made has gotten you to this point whether it is bad or good. It is you who had written each chapter of your life.

Keep your true friends and truly treasure them. I would rather have one good friend than a bunch of fake friends. Why keep people around you who don't believe in you? We're all partly negative, some more than others so why surround yourself with more negativity. Those true friends are the ones you really need to invest your time and energy into to get the return you are looking for.

Before you can change for the better, you need to learn to love yourself first. Sometimes you have to put yourself first to be okay. To better yourself. It's not being selfish, it's about change. And truly believe. You can get anywhere in life as long as there's a dream and you reach for it. I would rather die trying for my dreams rather than not at all.

The ultimate connection between all is to love. Sometimes love lets you down but that's the short term. You experience certain things so you can better yourself as a person and change to improve. If you love, you'll receive love in return. It's the ultimate bottom line which interconnects everyone in the world.

You have to have balance. In every aspect of your life, you need a bit of everything to create balance. Think about it. Without a balance in life, your whole world would fall apart.

Take some time to reflect who you are. Who you've become.

Be yourself. You were give the personality you have and that's why the people around you love you for being you. If everyone were the same the world would be boring. Everyone is and individual so think and act for yourself.

Have faith that tomorrow is a new day. Live for the moment, for you'll never get it back. Maybe someone will quote me one day. <3

a clutch that holds EVERYTHING!?





Just a girl's dream!! It's the Perrin Paris 1893 Martha Clutch which literally can hold everything. It's a 12x6 inch leather zip wallet type clutch. It can hold your cellphone, camera, pen, cards, ipod and all your little things you need! Someone even said they managed to put in their small notebook and lipgloss! <3

90210 starts and i just have to say....






...that everyone looks so different! Well not everyone. But Adriana has these long luscious dark locks rather than her short hair and she looks amazing!! Silver has a short bob which looks good, but I just had to stress how good Adriana looks! I did a screen capture.. and that's why the image isn't very good but yeah. <3

quote of the day


picture taken by The Sartorialist.

holt renfrew ad



I absolutely love this Coco and Behati film for Holt Renfrew. With our fav models prancing around and making creative videos on their own time, what's not to love. It's so catchy and makes you want to try on all your clothes is your wardrobe! Remember, Coco Rocha is huge and from our very own Richmond! <3

burberry's barbed wire ring







Here's another piece I like by Burberry. Burberry has created the barbed wire ring for $195. I like the whole grunge thing going on. Very unBurberry. Although it's price is up there I still like it! Put a ring on it! <3

fish hook






I absolutely love this leather fishing line bracelet with a stamped hook to wrap around the wrist. It's by Giles &Brother and it is worth $135. They have a bunch of leather wrap bracelets that I like but they are quite pricy for such a hot commodity. <3

leave it to kanye


I don't know if you've heard, but a couple nights ago was the VMA awards. Taylor Swift ended up winning Best Female Video category for "You Belong With Me" which ended up beating Beyonce's Single Ladies video. Taylor Swift accepted the Moonman award.

She went, "Thank you so much! I always dreamed about what it would be like to maybe win one of these some day but I never actually thought it would have happened. I sing country music co thank you so much for giviing me a chance to win a VMA award." Before she could say anymore, Kanye went up and said, “Yo Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’ll let you finish, but BeyoncĂ© has one of the best videos of all time. One of the best videos of all time!”

Taylor Swift and the audience were stunned. Kanye ran away and MTV cut to Pink applauding Taylor. Kanye had ran off with the mic in his hand. When he did hand the mic back, her time was over.

She had to perform soon after that too! Wow Kanye, just when we think that you've learnt your lesson!! So near the end of the show, Beyonce (being the kind woman she is) invited Taylor onstage to make a real acceptance speech. Now Kanye posted on his blog an apology:

“I’m sooooo sorry to taylor swift and her fans and her mom. I spoke to her mother right after and she said the same thing my mother would’ve said. She is very talented! I like the lyrics about being a cheerleader and she’s in the bleachers! …………………… i’m in the wrong for going on stage and taking away from her moment!……………. beyonce’s video was the best of this decade! I’m sorry to my fans if I let you guys down! I’m sorry to my friends at mtv. I will apologize to taylor 2mrw. welcome to the real world! everybody wanna booooo me but i’m a fan of real pop culture! No disrespect but we watchin’ the show at the crib right now cause … well you know! i’m still happy for taylor! Boooyaaawwww! you are very very talented! I gave my awards to outkast when they deserved it over me… that’s what it is!! i’m not crazy yall, i’m just real. Sorry for that! I really feel bad for taylor and i’m sincerely sorry! Much respect!!” <3>

modern day cinderella carriage


Jinyoung Jo is a South Korean student who created this Chanel dream car for a school project. It's crazy, futuristic and fashionable?! What more could a fashionista want? <3

what i missed

Fashion's Night Out was a huge success. I really wish I was there to attend.


Pharrell was at the cash register for Billionaire Boys Club


and Mary-Kate and Ashley were bartending at Barneys


even designers like Manolo Blahnik were out!
<3

meOW!

The claws come out and the backstabbing begins on The City! It premieres Tuesday September 29th. Apparently Erin (my fav) and Whitney had a falling out so she won't me on The City. Hmm. Weird. But anyhow, it look heaty in the world of Fashion in NY!<3


exhausted


I've literally been so tired! Last night I went to bed at 11.30 and woke up to all these text messages on my phone! Oops! Then today I went to my internship downtown and I'm tired once again! I am simply dying to go see MSTRKRFT and Steve Aoki tonight but I didn't get tickets and I'm sure they will be crazy expensive at the door. Oh yeah and rumour has it they are sold out. But Calvin Harris is tomorrow! I doubt I'll see him though. Ugh. I always miss the good ones! I've been pretty good. I already started reading my textbooks and haven't been procrastinating. Sorry for the slow updates! <3

more G to the wen







I wish I was in NYC right now. I mean Fashion Week is in full effect now and I would just loved to be immersed in the busyness! Anyhow, Gwen Stefani chose white nail polish for her models in her LAMB collection. HEY I've been doing that for a few years now! It's a tough colour to get but it's definitely sickkk! Yeah me and Gwen think alike. No biggie. hehe.<3

Fashion's Night Out TODAY






So today is the big Fashion's Night Out even I've been talking about. And to top things off, Gwen Stefani will be at Bloomingdales over the PA. The first 30 fans to purchase L.A.M.B. products will get to meet my all time fav star and get her autograph. Ahh. The perks of NYC.

The only one participating in Fashion's Night Out in Canada is The Bay. Whoop-de-doo...<3

SATC2 sneak peaks


Sex and the City 2 is planning to take us wayyyy back to the 80s. On set yesterday, were the ladies dressed to the tee in their 80s wear. It was great. Check it out. The funny thing is that you can actually picture them wearing this in the 80s. It's probably some flash back scene. Miranda looks like a little boy nerd. Samantha is always daring with a rock edge. Carrie has her whole old school Madonna look and Charlotte is plain preppy Charlotte. <3

Kat Von D for Sephora

You probably know that Kat Von D has her own make-up line at Sephora. Anyhow, I was watching her show LA Ink one day and heard about the line and about the photoshoot. Well now it's out. It's Kat Von D in one picture with no tattoos and one picture with all of them promoting her make up line. The picture without any of her infamous tattoos is to promote her tattoo concealer. Pretty neat huh?! <3

behind Anna Sui's doors

I love Anna Sui's vintage luxury look she incorporates to all her accessories and clothing. Well we get to look into her NYC home with Elle Decor. It's almost like a dollhouse itself. Filled with vintage inspiration, glamour and beauty. Her closets the best part! <3
