October 16, 2008.

I hadn't listened to Patrick Wolf in a while and he came up on my pod today. I forgot how much I like him. If you've never listened to him download a bunch and have a listen. My fav song is definatly child catcher. It's creepy but has a wicked beat. I also really liked this ad Patrick did for Burberry in 2007. Take a look. Also notice Agnes's hair. It's looks particularly beauty and makes me want to do a little chop chop of my own.




I'm also headin' to Hercules and Love Affair this Saturday at the Opera house. I'm going with Jason and a few fellow Winnipegers and I'm pretty excited. If you havn't listened to them before take a quick peep here and have a listen. Theres a lot of greatness on this page but make sure to listen to Hercules' Theme.

Yeah, I'm a part time model.

Last year a did a wee photo shoot with Brittnay Hildebrandt. It was for a fashion portfolio and it was a good time...actually a great time. I made that dress and I have to say that was the only time I've worn it but I hope to get some wear out of it this fall/winter. Perhaps it needs a shortening? Although I do love the long train and the hanging Grecian bit in the front so I'm not sure if I could go through with cutting her. Looking back at these photos I remember how freezing cold out it was when we took them. I think it was around Febuary in Winnipeg, Manitoba and one of these really cold, windy days with a beautiful sunshine which some how makes it colder. Anyways thank you again Britney for the shoot and I still wish the 1930's bathing beauty shoot could have happened this summer.

Oh yeah Jason is coming tomorrow at ten seventeen in the pm. Can't hardly wait.

trojan the iron horse...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Today is my boyfriend's, and one of my best buds, birthday. Happy birthday sweetheart. Wish I could be with you today. Thankfully jason is making a trip to toronto next week so we can celebrate then whilst getting buck at Hercules and the love affair. Check out jasons music. I dig Jasons tunage and I think you will to.

This picture is pre Jason and I really even knowing each other. I love though how he's surrounded by my buds and I including, mt, kirsty, katie, and madi.

Let's reminisce shall we?

Currently sitting in my room freezing my buns off before I head to bed. Thinking of being at vb on clubhouse with great friends, bathing beauties, blue skies, and a night full of drunken debauchery to look forward to is keeping me warm.

Halfway home.

Well were in our new place yet but theres still quite a bit of work to get done. We don't have a kitchen yet and well...I feel like I'm camping. Oh well I suppose it's all in the fun of living alone. I'm also still waiting on a couple rolling racks which is turning into quite a problem. On the plus side we have a pear tree in our backyard and the pears are daaaaaammmn good.

Just in the limo going to a photoshoot. My assistant took this photo. Nah, maybe not. Just moving day and some new shades from urban...and I took the photo.


Oh yeah Pollard's arrived..!




I was in a second hand store a few weeks ago and came across this mannequin. The guy working said he didn't know if it was for sale or not but the manager was out and I could buy it...quickly. I was on the mannequin like white on rice and then out the door in a moments time.

Dirty, dirty dancing.

My mom has arrived in Toronto and it has been truly lovely! We did a bit of shopping today at Eaton centre and Holt Renfew. I picked up this wool, 70's style, black and grey patterned coat which I love. I also tried on a couple pair of black baggy trouser pants at Holts which included a pair of Alexander Wang's and Alexander McQueens. Ugh they were gorgerous. Although the Wang's said "No size" which I assumed meant it was a one size fits all kind of thing which I thought was weird but I tried them on anyways. They were insanely tight and I was bummed that a pair of one size fits all pants were far to small on me. I was then informed from the nice sales man that "No size" actually meant size zero. Is that common knowledge?

My mom, aunt, and I also attended Dirty Dancing on Saturday night which was amazing. They used all the same great tunage from the movie and the dancing was indeed very dirty. The crowd went wild when Johnny said the famous "Nobody puts baby in the corner".
