GRADUATION


  Photography by Winnie Lu | Styling by me

Dress from Michael Tyler Collection Montreal (I'm wearing extra small) | Nude Pumps from Promise | Bracelet from Shelley | Ring from Western University | Red Lipstick from Revlon

I've graduated from University! This week I had my Convocation Ceremony so I was on the search for a dress. I came across Michael Tyler's dress... it's absolutely stunning. What caught my eye was the graphic patterns and the mesh of black and white colours. I've never worn a dress that has fit me so well! It's like a silhouette. Definitely a big fan of his (ps. I hope you love my blog post Michael!:))

I'm extremely excited and very happy for my next chapter. I've been waiting for this moment and it's finally here. The ring I'm wearing with my outfit represents the freedom & peace I have in my life. I've worked my butt off extremely extremely hard to get to where I am now and the only direction is up and forward!! :) One thing I've learned over the last few years is that life is precious, fast, & short and you must always believe in yourself, love yourself, & continuously reach for & live your dreams. I want my journey to inspire anyone with a dream. I don't think many people realize the world is literally in the palm of their hands and every human has the choice & power to take action and live however they visualize to.

Lots of love to those who support and inspire me forward. Keeping my hustle on & excited to share what's coming next ♥        

Ps. more grad photos are on my Tumblr!

MEET ME AT THE RAILWAY


Photography by Matt Zhaoliang | Creative Conceptualization, Photo Editing, Styling by me

Blue Collared Button-Down from Bootlegger | High-Waisted Black Jean Shorts from AA | Nylons & Over-The-Knee High Socks from AA | Platform Booties from Forever21 | Leather Studded Backpack from Material Girl | Hair Bow & Earrings from Forever21 | Bracelet from Western University | Wool Scarf from SKIRT

There were so many "bloopers"/funny photos from this shoot behind the scenes haha! I was dancing and laughing a ton at everything (the norm for me lol), but I think reason why is because I'm in love with this outfit. Over-the-knee high socks & high waisted shorts have been inspiring me. The weather is finally summer warm here in Canada, but an outfit like this is perfect for the evening when it gets a little chilly. It's also great for the fall - really versatile for all seasons because you can remove the nylons, socks, and scarf for a summer day or add them for a chilly fall day. & the backpack!! Love at first sight. Material Girl is one of my new favourites. Every time I'm shopping I come across an item & I'll check the tag and it says "Material Girl." I'm just highly attracted to their stuff hahaha. More Material Girl to come :) 

I can't believe it's June already, really excited to plan summer photoshoots & music content. I've got my convocation coming up & a few more events so keep an eye out for my next update :) off for an evening run, have a great night guys xx

Rage Market Fashion Show by Vanessa Natalia

I had the awesome opportunity to receive a VIP pass as a media guest at Vanessa Natalia's Rage Market Fashion Show a few weeks ago! Photographer & blogger, Winnie Lu, also accompanied me at the show. It was an amazing turnout & I had the chance to go backstage with Vanessa and take a close look at the details of her designs. She's an extremely talented fashion designer & entrepreneur for her age! Her designs consist of vintage with a cultural influenced modern twist. I loved the mix of materials, which were of leather, oriental designs, mesh, & plastic fabrics. Unique pieces perfect for this summer & fall season!
