My lovely friend @tarajarmstrong works for an incredible company called the Glowbal Group. Vancouver’s finest restaurants and lounges. A few you may know include Society, Glowbal, Sanifir, and their newest addition Black+Blue steakhouse.

A few months back my sister and I were asked to be featured in a video advertisement for the company, and here is the final product…

So much fun being a part of a revolutionary company here in Vancouver. Thank you for the fantastic opportunity!

The Cambridge Satchel Company came out with their spring colors called the “Fluoro” collection. Currently lusting over these.

Neon is huge this season and it certainly isn’t hard to miss! accessories, clothing, and even hair colors are everywhere you look.

Colored skinnies are a great way to incorporate this trend into your wardrobe this season. Bold, but oh so worth it.

Theres nothing more refreshing than welcoming spring back when colors like these are present. Other easy ways to incorporate this trend into your wardrobe and style is with nail polish, or even lips (bright pink!)  For those lazier days, which lets face it-we all have them…there are other choices like fun tank tops and sweatpants(mostly for your own pleasure, these colors are mood lifters, I swear)

Must haves of the moment: Neon Satchel.

One of my favorite fairly priced retailers out there! Iv bought great party dresses, vegan leather jackets, and lots of adorable tops from this site.

LuLus ships fast, has easy returns and the customer support is amazing. Some things I have ordered include:

Peppy Peplum dress:

Didnt Start The Fire:

If you live in the USA it’s FREE shipping on orders over $75!  Just wanted to share with you one of my little secrets, it is so hard to find a party dress that isn’t atrocious or breaks the bank. Happy Shopping!

Being my favorite holiday, Halloween costumes don’t happen over night. With the help of an amazing seamstress (my mother) I get to expand my imagination beyond the quite dreadful pre-made  racks of costumes.  I had planned to be something (secret for next year), until I found this amazing costume top hat and had to change my entire ensemble. So, I went as a Circus Ring Master!

Hat is from a Costume store called Boo La La, Marciano bra, American Apparel hot shorts, Home made jacket, and Christian Louboutin Bibi pumps.

This is me just putting my Gorilla in his place! I hope everyone had an amazing Halloween

Ever have a shopping attack? Like when you think you need to swipe your credit cards or the world might end starting with your closet…

I had that this week when I woke up and remembered that it was the day Target was releasing its limited edition Missoni collection. I woke up, threw on some comfy JBrand jeans, a knit sweater and hopped in the car headed for the U.S Of A.

By the time we had arrived the walls had been cleared…but any good shopper knows that wont stop them…we headed to the changing rooms where racks upon racks of zigs and zags were hiding. Abandoned shopping carts and new boxes of merchandises began to pop up…lets just say, we hustled real hard. The quality of the collection was very well done and they made lots of accesories and home decor products. We got flats, rubber boots, sweaters, cardigans, picture frames. vases, beach bags, the list is endless.

While I love my Missoni originals, my target finds are just as fabulous and we all know the zig zags are timeless. Ill be sure to post some looks soon!

The Capsule Collection will be debuted in Fall 2011.

With previous collaborations being so successful-think, Stella McCartney, Jimmy Choo, and Lanvin- Its no doubt Italian luxury brand Versace will hit the ball out of the park with this one. Heres a sneak peak of what you may just see in H&M.

A previous favorite collaboration was with Lanvin, the dresses were lovely and accesories very fun.

I’ll remind you….

If I ever saw a Rachel skirt, this would be it. I look forward to seeing the whole Versace collection!

Can you tell I have a slight obbsession wih H&M? ….
