Hello Darlings,

Thank you to everyone for entering Veet $100 Spring Care Package Giveaway! The winner is #12! Congratulations to Cindy!

So what is Cindy's ideal way to spend the spring break?

Hello Darlings,

I am sure every girl can relate to the drama that just when you thought everything was organized and going according to the plan, things get de-railed.

As I packed my suitcase for a week-long hotel stay during Toronto Fashion Week, I thought I had it all figured out! My outfits were colour-coded and organized with all my shoes pre-selected, and for every outfit there was a stand-by. But two days in, my super keen plan was failing me. Nothing suited my mood. I did not want to wear dresses and pretty blouses, I just wanted cashmere and jeans.

Hello Darlings,

Sunday brunch has always been one of my favourite social gatherings. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee, the comfort of morning sunshine and of course a table with some of my favourite people are just a few of the reasons. Many broken hearts have been mended over mimosas and much advice has been given, and even more relationship advice has been received over pancakes or French toast (my favourite!). The tradition of brunching with my girlies or loved ones has been around for a while and even as our lives take us in different directions, there’s always time for a catch-up brunch!

With all of the above in mind, I hosted a brunch at the charming Hotel Le Germain Maple Leaf Square for some of Canada’s most influential bloggers: Daniella Etienne of The Broken Heel Diaries, Erin Davis of Notable.ca, Kimberly Lyn of The Souls of My Shoes, Lisa Kisber of lkisstyle.com, Sharon Ng Hayes of Backseat Stylers, Nelia Belkova of Styleblog.ca, and Nataliya Smirnova of Stylegination.

Hello Darlings,

What a busy week it has been! Despite being tiresome, the past week has also been one of the most thrilling. With World MasterCard Fashion Week, Fabulous Girls Night Out, Stylicity and Blogger Brunch — I am definitely not wearing my heels in the next few days :) With fashion week and the many events that accompany it, Toronto came alive last week with much buzz and energy. For the industry and media, the days during the fashion week start early and finish late.

Thoughtfully Hotel Le Germain Maple Leaf Square was kind enough to invite me to stay with them during the week so I was close to the shows and events. A short walk to the fashion week venue was life saving :P Not to sound overly dramatic, but every minute counted last week will all of the shows and events that I wanted to attend, not to mention all the writing that I needed to do.
