I’m so happy to announce that I made Toronto Life‘s annual list of Toronto’s Best Dressed People! They’ve chosen me and 16 other Torontonians to feature in the eighth edition of their yearly style round up. Their Best Dressed Class of 2018 includes a chef, a drag queen, a painter, and other stylish and talented professionals.
It’s mid-September and I think it’s safe to say summer is over, at least in Toronto. The sky is grey, night is creeping in sooner, and of course the temperature has dropped. The summer months are my favorite time of year but with fall well underway, I think it’s time my wardrobe and I adjust to the new changes.
So what’s the best way to ease the transition? To embrace all the good fall fashion the season has to offer! I’ve compiled a six-look launchpad to get you thinking all things autumn. From layering jackets to cozy knitwear, I’ve got you covered.
I’m in Nordstrom’s first Canada-wide campaign! Titled “True Nord“, the name is a play on words combining “True North”, a phrase from the Canadian national anthem and the word nord meaning “north” in French, to incorporate the second national language of Canada. I was one of 13 lucky individuals Nordstrom chose to help tell the story of Canada’s beauty, diversity, and all-around awesome-ness.

Whether you’re planning a trip there or just hoping to learn more about the area, my guide will give you an inside look at some of the best spots in the area!
While looking for different ways to explore and promote Sororum I linked up with director and fellow Ryerson University alum Jessamine Fok. We had worked together before on a previous project and when the opportunity presented itself to create something new we took it. Her cinematic storytelling skills and my creativity and fashion pieces joined forces to tell a story celebrating womanhood, sisterhood, and the beauty of African wax prints.
I’ve known @JonathanRightNow for a few years now and what has always struck me about him is his amazing collection of high end archival fashion pieces.

What are your thoughts on thrift and vintage shopping? Do you love it, hate it, or not have any luck? I used to be into vintage and thrift shopping a few years ago and though I haven’t done it much recently, getting my hands on this vintage Ozzy Osbourne concert tee had me thinking about it and I wanted to share some shopping tips from my experience.

I’ve been holding in this secret for a while and am so excited I can finally announce that I have been named one of the best dressed people in all of Canada! It’s such an honor to be chosen as one of 10 stylish creatives on this list. I’m listed among a Parisian-style baker, vintage connoisseur, gallery owner, fashion magazine editor, and more. I’d say I’m in pretty good company.
When I first saw the Air Jordan Season of Her collection I was instantly taken aback. The dreamy colorways. The lush texture. The fact that it is an exclusively women’s release. Just in time for Women’s History Month, I got my hands on a pair of these sneakers that aren’t just shoes but also a sign of changing times.
