Cargo Trench Vest

Summer season is over. You know what that means? Fall(ing leaves) season is here! I have a love/hate relationship with this time of year because we have chilly mornings and nights, but during the day it gets a bit too warm. The solution to that? Layers. Layers. Layers. And I don't mean layers of fat (which is also possible in preparation for the cold winter months). What I mean is layers of clothes for the fall season. 

PHOTO DIARY | Celebrating in NYC - Day 3

Very sorry for posting this a little late! This was supposed to be up on Friday last week but I didn't get a chance to. Cannot believe it's our last day (like always). Of course, our first stop would be Shake Shack. I know, I know. Again, right? But whatever! We don't have that burger joint in Canada. We didn't know what time they open and we got there pretty early. So we ended up chilling at Madison Square Park.

PHOTO DIARY | Celebrating in NYC - Day 2

Greetings from New York! Just kidding. I am still in my city but posting NYC backlogs. Our second day in New York was pretty cultural. We headed to MoMA (Museum of Modern Art) in the morning. Which I kind of just skimmed through the first time I went there. This time, I actually spent more than two seconds on each exhibit. I assure you there are a variety of very interesting things to see. Plus, there were a lot of stuff that I learned about that I didn't even notice the first time.

PHOTO DIARY | Celebrating in NYC - Day 1

Remember last time when I said I will be back in New York one day? Well.. I DID! And it was sooner than expected. Couple of months later when I visited the city for the first time, I found myself walking the streets of Manhattan again. It was such an incredible experience that I couldn't get it off my head. Seriously, a piece of me was left behind and is now permanently stamped in New York. I decided to celebrate my birthday on a different approach this year. Prior to this trip, I had hosted a BBQ party with the closest of my friends and went out for drink with a few others. On the day of, I flew back to New York. It felt like I never left. This time, it was my mission to go to the places I didn't get a chance to go to last time.

Back to School with Me

I SURVIVED MY FIRST WEEK OF SCHOOL. Yay to me! Now it's time to start the weekend.

PHOTO DIARY | Let's Go To The EX!

Yesterday was the last day of the CNE (aka Canadian National Exhibition. aka The Ex). Everyone knows that the end of CNE is a reminder of the end of summer. Which also means it's time to go back to school. Fun, isn't it? NOT. I've only been to this festival two times since I moved to Toronto. Last week was my first time going to The Ex twice in one week! Ate lots and lots of very unhealthy yet delicious food.

Sassoon Salon - Yorkville

A few weeks ago, I got an email from Jessica of Budman PR inviting me to take a tour around Sassoon Salon's new space in Yorkville (122 Scollard St.) She also offered me to receive a complimentary service. It was such a great timing because I was already planning to get my hair done before I go on my trip. Also, last time I had my hair dyed was in March. PURPLE! Then it faded. So it was time for a change.
