Some ADORKable Fall Fashion

So, anyone who knows me, knows I adore Zooey Deschanel. Like, ADORE. She's gorgeous, hilarious, a dork and has a killer fashion sense 

(in my opinion).

So, that being said, here are some ways to rock some great Fall fashion trends, a la Zooey!

Navy and red isn't just for the sailor look anymore! A nice tailored dress, with eye catching colour details is a great look!

Going out on the town? Sequins are everywhere! From short shorts, to full dresses! If you can pull off the shiny disco ball look - more power to you!

This is absolutely one of my favourite Fall looks. A skirt, or shorts, with tights underneath. NO BARE LEGS! Through on a little blouse, or a cute sweater. Tie the look together with a jean jacket and a circle scarf. LOVE LOVE LOVE!

What are some of your favourite looks for Fall?

The Life of a Server

As many of you know, I've worked in the hospitality industry, on and off, for more years than I'd like to admit! (Don't want to age myself ;) ) So, after the longest hiatus I've taken from the scene - I'm back.

Most places I have worked have had either an all black uniform, or black and white. I had I dig up some old outfits, and attempt to put some new, fresh ones together.

What do you think about the white and black look? Any suggestions on outfit ideas?

Farewell Summer

Well, this has been quite an eventful summer for me! I drove from Vancouver to Toronto. I left an entire life back in Vancouver, picked myself up, dusted myself off and am now starting fresh!

I have hit my fair share of hurdles along the way, and I'm sure I will continue to do so. That's life though. Without the bad/tough times, you are never really able to appreciate the good.

So, as I bid farewell to Summer 2012, I look forward to Fall/Winter...but not necessarily the snow!

Fall Fashion

Ok, technically it isn't Fall yet, but I'm rocking the Fall fashions from this point forward!

Fall is by far my favourite season. Not just because my birthday comes (October 25, note your calendars!), not because I love how the leaves change colours, but because I adore Fall fashion.

I love the amazing prints, the great boots, cozy sweaters, light jackets....I could go on and on!

What's your favourite thing about the season?

12 Tasks That Killer Employees Always Finish Before Noon

I stumbled upon this article while I was on LinkedIn this morning and thought it was quite interesting!

I try to do almost everything on the list...but I struggle with some (a good night's sleep for one!).

"A recent study published in an American Psychological Association journal, Emotion, suggests that early birds are generally happier than night owls.

More than 700 respondents, ranging from ages 17 to 79, were surveyed and asked about their emotional state, health, and preferred time of day.

Self-professed "morning people" reported feeling happier and healthier than night owls. Researchers hypothesize that one of the reasons could be because society caters to a morning person's schedule.

It's certainly true that the working world does. Working "9-to-5" is more than an expression, but a standard shift for many Americans. It also stands to reason that those who like rising with the sun are also the most productive employees in the office.

Do you want to be more like them? Then take note of the tasks these high-functioning, productive, and more awake employees have completed before lunch...."

19 Food Tips That You Need To Know

I was fiddling around on the good ol' interweb this morning and stumbled across a great post on Buzzfeed.

Gold in London, and Golden in our Hearts

Unless you have been living under a rock lately, you know the Olympics are going on in London. The Olympics are an emotional time for me. Not because I play any sports, because believe me - I do not. I just see the hard work, and effort the athletes all put into their respective sports. And then there they are, on the worlds stage - giving it their all. Th emotion they put into everything they do, it's a life changing moment for them. It's beautiful.


I watched the women's team competition in gymnastics the other day, and saw the Russian team get defeated by the Americans. The look of sadness on the Russian team was heartbreaking They knew as the Americans were competing that they lost And the Americans knew they won. The smiles, the proud looks on their faces as they landed each set. I admit, I cried....a lot. Ha!

One person who really stood out for me was Gabby Douglas. She seemed so carefree, with such a contagious smile. I knew I had to research her a bit.


Did you know she made it onto the US Olympic team with quite a short resume? Just one year agg at this time, Gabby was virtually unknown, even in gymnastics circles. That all changed when she beat reigning all-around world champion Jordyn Wieber at the U.S. Olympic Team Trials. Suddenly, she had emerged as a potential threat to win gold. 


And win gold she did! She helped the team win the team competition, and now she has won the overall all-around! Something else to not, is she is the first African American to win this medal. No doubt she has been torpedoed into Olympic history!


Congrats, Gabby! Can't wait to cop that Corn Flakes box!!
