Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose

Take me away, to a place I've never been before...

It is still freezing here in Toronto, I am really looking forward to some warmer weather and much needed relaxation.  I am loving my courses mostly but there is a lot of group work which can be hard to organize.  I am planning events, working on my resume and digital portfolio, and trying not to fail Statistics.   

Last night I spent the evening at the taping of the BEING FRANK show, which is a Canadian late-night talk show and I got to sit in the front row.
The TV show I work for, Musically Yours, Deirdre Mallehe has a beautiful elegant host who was a guest on the show along with a retired NHL player and a star from a Canadian television series, Being Erica.
I took some pictures with my Rebel, but I can't post them yet since the show has yet to air, they will be up this weekend.

I had a super busy weekend at the bar, it was UFC and Superbowl so I made a ton of cash which is great.  I also sold the most BUD MINI JUGS at work so I got 100 dollars to spend at the mall and a chance to win a trip to Vegas.  I recently bought some shoes from BCBG, ankle boots and flats.  I also picked up three turtlenecks last week in a soft cashmere blend from Jacob, 40$ each (retail) but I got them for the price of three for ten dollars.

Just some pictures to share with you guys for today!  And if you live in Canada make sure you check out Being Frank to see me in the audience this Friday.  Check back this weekend for backstage photos.  :)  Hope the weather where you are is great and as always thanks for reading!
Me and Theo Fleury at hair and make up!  He is such a nice guy with a touching story, pick up his book if you get a chance, Playing With Fire.
 Getting ready in my bathroom and playing with my Rebel testing all the lighting.  I am getting better with my camera!
Busy girl!  Snapped this in my car before I left my house to go to the event.  Sunglasses from Ralph Lauren.
My ten dollar purchase from Jacob.  They are super soft and not itchy at all, and I love how they fit!
New shoes from BCBG!  The leather is super soft and they are comfortable and of course gorgeous, excellent craftmanship!


Me on the set!  I don't think I was supposed to get this picture taken but I love it so I am sharing it with you guys!

UPDATE ** 
Some more pictures from the show!!!

It is so great to finally be working in the Media industry.  I love bartending but I love PR more!  Can not wait for more opportunities like this.

Runway, previews & Vera Wang

I took my love, I took it down
I climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
’til the landslide brought it down

Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my life?

Well, I’ve been afraid of changing cause i’ve
Built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older
And I’m getting older, too

The Spring 2011 runways of New York hold many new trends as well as the ones you know and love from this year's spring and fall shows.  Flowers, assymetry, dark colours mixed with bright ones, and bold accessories are here to stay.  Since fall is here I am relusting over a few designers, namely Vera Wang.  Here are a few of my favourite looks from the runway and a prevew from the spring shows.  

I am at 99 followers, I have been working on a post which will be all about finding the right clothes for your body as well as building your wardrobe with basic staple pieces that allow for ultimate versatility.  I will post it once I get to 100 followers, as well as a possible give away!

Thanks so much for reading :)  Much love!

Vera Wang fall 2010.  I'm off to buy funky hand and neck pieces, and I love the long gloves!
Vera Wang spring 2010.  This type of structure is common for dresses for both her fall and spring collections.
Betsey Johnson fall 2010.  This look is flawless and I am loving her fun designs!  Her spring line mixes and matches so many trends, here is one of my favourite looks:

Marc Jacob was sporting flowers left, right and centre on the spring runway.  Almost every model had a giant flower headpiece.  Here is the only look I fancied:

What are your favourite looks from the New York spring runway?
Can't wait for the Italy and Paris shows!

One more follower and I'm at 100, send me an e-mail at vward@uoguelph.ca if you are the 100th follower and I will show my special edition blog post!

Thank you so much for reading,

Outfit - Off to school

I was waiting for you to notice me
I've been hanging around for a minute
Baby don't give me you it won't hurt me
I don't even know if you deserve me

But with that moon in the sky
Who wants to be alone
And when the stars shine so bright
Who wants to be alone

Don't take me home
Til the sun comes up till the sun comes up
