Smart ForTwo, Smart ForYou

When shopping for a car there are many factors that you’re going to consider. How big it is, how fast it can go and even what it has in it — the more options, the better –. When it’s going to be your first car however, it seems like you might look at things slightly [...]

The Key To Independence

There’s something to be said about the ability to be independent and how it affects your life. You start life in a very depending way; needing everything from the one who gave birth to you, as you can’t fend for yourself. As you get older though this begins to change as you slowly learn the [...]

Must Read: Deluxe [How Luxury Lost Its Luster]

Years ago I came across a book that somewhat changed the way I view, buy and even cherish some of the luxury goods I have in my wardrobe. It’s not often you think about each of these items, more than just face value; whether you’re online, in a shop or even picking an outfit out at home, [...]

Making the Switch

I didn’t think I would do it, I just thought I would stay this way forever. Sometimes though as time changes and so does technology, what we once thought was convenient becomes obsolete and quickly replaced by something else. And for me, and others I am sure, the novelty quickly wore off as I soon [...]

The Ever Changing Moment

I am amazed by the impact that pictures have on us every day and each way they are conveyed. It seems that it was only a few years ago that you’d have to be sitting in someones living room, over a cup of tea, looking through album after album to see [pictures]. Where now, there [...]

Table for One

Last night I had the pleasure of dining at chef Lynn Crawford’s restaurant, Ruby Watch Co.. As much as I love trying new things and experiencing new places, I must confess that the winter’s cold has kept me in this season, not venturing far outside my 5 km radius of home. Seeing as it was someone [...]

Inside the Box: Jewelry Focus

Many people ask what I love when it comes to fashion, which isn’t always an easy question or answer. Everyone has their own taste, style and even signature when defining ones personal style. Everything from top to bottom, ears to hands and even our feet; in each area we are able to express ourselves through the various [...]

Life’s A Drag

As many of you aren’t aware, because I know you’re not, RuPaul’s Drag Race season 4 has just begun. What started as a pilot series a few years ago has turned into a drag-phenomenon with the prizes and talent getting better each season. The reason why I say that you probably haven’t seen it is because [...]

New Year’s Resolution – Part 2

Although the month of January is almost over I haven’t started my new year’s resolutions, as of yet. Yes, hard to believe; one that not only one month has already passed us by but also that I fell through on my promise. I think that we can all relate though, every new year, how hard [...]

Working Refined

Since I was 16 years old, all I can remember is working in the fashion industry. From The Gap to Burberry and most recently at Harry Rosen; all where great experiences, even more than the next. From what one might gauge from the outside is that I have a passion for fashion — which I do — [...]
