*This is a guest post written by Jessica Harvey Trying to always come up with a new outfit to wear every day can be very tricky indeed. And there might even be times when you are out shopping and none of the garments on the shelves seem to jump out and catch your attention. This, […]
The other night I attended the media preview of the 2017 Spring Collection #onRobson at the Blue Horizon Hotel. The view from the 31st floor is spectacular and the room was buzzing with conversation from some of Vancouver’s most fashionable bloggers and influencers. Champagne, canapes, and displays of racks with Men and Women’s Spring apparel, shoes, […]
What we make matters enormously, and it doesn’t matter at all. Art is a crushing chore and a wonderful privilege. The work wants to be made, and it wants to be made through you. -Elizabeth Gilbert Last night I attended a media event at The Cutting Room, in Vancouver hosted by my authentic and creative […]
Women in business inspire me, and moms who run businesses inspire me that much more! For this reason, I was extremely excited to have a phone chat with Traci Costa- mom of two and founder of local children’s fashion brand, Peekaboo Beans. Our conversation began with “nice to finally chat after following one another online” […]

During the month of July I took part in a Summer Wardrobe Remix challenge: Wear 30 existing items of clothing for 30 days and I failed BIG TIME!! I found it extremely hard to get dressed every damn day. I mean, I got dressed, but to actually put myself together in a cute outfit and […]
When I was a teenager I would buy clothes to impress others. In fact, I’ll never forget the day I received my first pay cheque from my part-time job at Mcdonalds. I was 15 -years- old and the first thing I did after I cashed my cheque was hop on the sky train so I […]
This past Sunday I had the absolute pleasure of speaking on the Vancity Business Babes #mompreneurpanel at the gorgeous Sky helicopters. As soon as I stepped through the door I was in awe of how great the space is. A huge thank you to founder and friend Danielle for inviting me to be a part […]
