ZOMG! Look what I found!

Way back in June, Mirabelle and I went for the opening party of Guess' flagship store on Queen Street Toronto. Invite only, you know how I roll. ;) It was fun although we kinda decided last last minute that we were going so outfits weren't really planned. But hey, we do look good if I do say so myself. Plus the people-watching was superb especially post 8pm after the wine had been flowing for a while. Geeewd times!

So camera shy it hurts

I played it off here

I don't know who he was but he was awesome and we took a picture together.

And we took another.

And yet another! I should've asked his name but this is way cooler.
By the way is that beard bitchin' or what? Props.

Le freak, c'est chic!

Okay now, I'm going to study. No more stalking myself on Picasa man, Statistics will not write itself although I am wishing hard. Toodle-oo!

Weekend Shenanigans - Censored

I'm not entirely sure if I should post this, but this weekend was so wickedly awesome that it would be a shame not to share. Then again most wickedly awesome escapades are always PG-13 no? Oh well, I'll tame it as much as I can but I simply must share. So, it was Zyrelle's birthday party on Friday and the event was aptly dubbed "the Big Z's Belligerence". I say this because the restaurant we went to - Guu restaurant, is the LOUDEST, most insane, coziest little Japanese restaurant in Toronto. The ambience was nuts, the waitstaff were crazy cool and to give you an idea of how loud it was, I blended in perfectly. I may be tiny but I make up for it with quite the pair of lungs, and I yelled at Guu and no one noticed! Awesome? Heck yes! It was a great night, birthday girl was made to do the number of shots corresponding to her age. I won't say how many but she was leaning when we left. Hehe. I on the other hand, had something called an Aloe high and was sorely disappointed. It was supposed to be vodka and Aloe vera, bullshit. The only hint of vodka in that drink was the clear color, I tasted nothing! Hmph! The night ended with a surprise cheesecake for Zy-zy, half of which ended up in her face, courtesy of me (no pictures sadly but the look on her face will stay in my mind forever. *chuckle*) some unsavoury behavior with a feminine hygiene product (DO NOT ask) and some mad MAD laughs. Guu'd times! :D

Before Guu on Friday, I had gone to Earls at Square One with my friend. Cozy place not too bad, had a martini and some liquid cocaine (no, it's not actual cocaine. Lol). Saturday I went to the same Earls and learned the hard way that you should not go to a snazzy restaurant after 8pm on a Saturday and expect to be seated within 30 minutes. That and that Saturday service at this place is the pits. Big thumbs down. We took a seat at the bar and ordered martinis. Mine was something called Doctor's Orders - Grosse stuff. Memo to me, anything that a doctor orders you to take, cannot taste good. After the martini we blew that place and went to Moxie's (still at Square One) and wouldn't you know it, the hostess for the night was one of the volunteers for the UGG opening party. Oh yeah, I got connections baby! Lol. We were seated immediately and the servers were awesome. Liquid cocaine and people watching - actually server watching, one of the waitstaff a hottie named Jean is proper eye candy *howl* Ay mamacita! Yes, I have a girl crush. Anyways, she kept the conversation flowing. Best part of the night? The peach bellini. It was the size of my head and twice as delicious, my only regret is that I didn't take a picture of it.

Me and birthday girl

Birthday shots for the birthday girl.
I have more incriminating photos and videos but I won't post them for obvious reasons. 

Moxie's misbehaviour. 3 shots of liquid cocaine and half the gigantic Bellini.
This was while rocking out to Cheers by Rihanna. Gewd times!

PS: Oh after Moxie's we took a walk round the mall just to see what it was like after-hours. When we got to the Apple store, it was covered in post-its all in tribute to Steve Jobs. I'm a PC and it gave me goosebumps, that dude was pretty awesome. I took pictures. The last one's my favorite, for obvious reasons. Hehe.

All three walls

Up close wall

Pondering

My fave. *snigger*

Needless to say, I spent most of Sunday on the couch. I'm off to study now, I have a midterm tomorrow. Hope your weekend was equally awesome!

My week in fashion

I had a head wrap phase borne of utter reluctance to comb my hair.
My mom loved this one.

She hated this one and tried to get me to take it off.
I staunchly refused, nothing was going to make me comb my hair.

Then I combed it, it was surprisingly easy. Hmm.

Same look but with my blazer, it's kinda chilly.
Plus I had bows in  my hair! SEE?

And the outfit from the UGG party. Still not the best picture but I don't look like a hobo in this one.
More like Yvonne Chaka Chaka... Pfft! Beats hobo anyday!

UGG Opening Party/Epiphany

It usually bugs me when I don't update this blog. I know I'm all about dressing people up but let's face it, how many times can I shove people into clothes and make it exciting? Granted the pictures are cool (still have to upload shoot three by the way) but every once in a while it'd be cool to look at other things, like ME! Kidding. No seriously, me. -__-

Lol. So today I realized something. I go to way too many cool events and just neglect to blog about them. Like I said, it's cool when I dress people up but frankly, the coolest things happen when I'm just living my life and being generally insane. So, in keeping with this epiphany (and the surge of energy I got from the large coffee I just consumed); I have decided to blog about my fashionable life, in addition to my shoots as well. That way there's always something to read about. Cool? Cool.

Tonight, I went to the opening party for UGG Toronto. It was an invite-only kinda thing (why, yes I am fancy). Anyways, none of my plus ones could make it so I went stag (yeah, I'm cool enough to hang out alone at a party) <--- what is with these side comments? Oh well, below are my faves from the collection. from the cool to the way over the top to the OH-MY-GOD-KILL-ME-NOW-IT'S-SO-CUTE. You'll figure out which falls into what category. :)

LOVE this bag!

WANT these shoes

Physically restrained myself from grabbing these and making a dash for it.

DIED of cuteness overload. They're so wittle!

WOAH! Spark-l-ey!

Copped a sec in the spotlight. Is my camera shyness showing? Lol

Not the best picture of me but wallahi, it was pretty cool. I walked in and the photographer wanted a picture of me, aw yeah, told you I was fancy. And the stares I got in this outfit? Holy! Including but not limited to underage guy on train with braids in his hair. Staring at me all intense like "hey baby", LOL! "No thanks Bow wow," I said with a pointed once over, "Not tonight." Adios!
