T.G.I.F.

A selfie I took today on Instagram

It's Friday and it finally feels like summer! Don't you just love weekends? Speaking of, why am I working at 5:30 on a Friday? Nope, can't think of a very good reason either. Oh, except I did want to share my latest scores: mirrored aviators from the men's section at Joe Fresh, a cool red necklace from H&M and a pretty navy dress from Smart Set. Love! You can't see the shoes but I'll leave those until next week. I could go on and on...

Hope you have the best weekend!

Pics from the Rag & Bone Party at Holt Renfrew

All pics by me (except for the ones of me, in which case, I'll give the credit to rlr mini)

I'll be very frank here (Hi, I'm Frank. ha ha) - I'm swamped, I leave on vacation in 2 days, and I don't have enough time to do a proper post. Still, I've been wanting to share these pics from the rag & bone party at Holt Renfrew that rlr mini and I were lucky enough to be invited to the other week. And so, here they are. The party was super amazing with a crazy good DJ, cotton candy and pretzel stands and designers David Neville and Marcus Wainwright on hand so naturally, we had the best time. If you can afford to buy rag & bone, head to Holt Renfrew and they'll hook you up with something cool. 

We also had a few too many glasses of wine and both forgot our real cameras. So, there it is. #bloggerfail. This is what happens when you're let out of the house, out of the reach of toddlers for a few hours...

Thanks, Holts, for letting us crash your party xx

Holt Renfrew's Blaire Borins in her Rag & Bone jeans and killer points.

Everyone was all over a trench with leather sleeves but we wanted this dreamy blazer

This is what the blazer does to you #magical

They had real live graffiti artists on hand to make this mural - because that's how rag & bone rolls...

Brittany Barkwell of Holt Renfrew rocks a gorge white rag & bone dress. Lurv.

Yup, we're clever like that.

Leaving my RLR mark on the graffiti wall. P.S - Those are shadows, not eyebrows...

Check out my little Vine video from the party...

Work It Out

Plates of cookies, second helpings and loads of holiday libations still making you feel a little, well, lethargic? When it comes to getting your fitness goals back on track, nothing motivates quite like cute workout gear. I've figured out your 2013 fitness wardrobe (check out my picks at iVillage.ca, including my new fave lululemon tights below - LOVE them) - now all you have to do is move that body. Okay, you first ;)

Joe Fresh Spring '13

Johanna (aka rlr mini) and I hit up the Joe Fresh Spring '13 Show

Here's my hot-mess pretzel look (read: I sprinted to the shows after my train arrived late), as papped by FLARE Magazine (left) and after - hair down, heels on, basking in the post-show glow (right).  

As tweeted by rlr mini, "Can you spot the @realliferunway in her natural habitat?"

The Joe Fresh finale.  See Jeanne Beker in the front row?

I could go on and on...Really I could.  But it's Friday at 4:00.  It's been a very long week, and it's Pizza/Movie Night at our house.  Yay! A picture (or 60ish in this case) says a thousand words and so I'll leave you with photos from Wednesday's Joe Fresh Spring 2013 show - always my favourite at World Mastercard Fashion Week.  For Spring, it was a mash-up of '60s mod, with graphic black & white prints, pops of bright yellow, soft blue and metallics, with a cameo by '60s model, Pat Cleveland.  So cool, so fun, so very Joe. My favourite looks? The white Pierrot-collar blouse with the pleated yellow skirt, the croco suit (w matching handbag - yum!), the Hitchcock-esque grey bird print pants with the printed blouse, and pretty much all of the metallic looks at the end.  Thanks for the invite, Joe!  More fashion week pics (including my fateful front row seat at Lucian Matis) next week.  TGIF! xoxo
