COACH For Japan

As we all know, a horrible earthquake had hit Japan less than a week ago and an incredible number of support is being given to the country already. Coach, the famous fashion house is also giving a helping hand. They have pledged to donate almost $5 MILLION dollars to the Japanese Red Cross Society!

That's AMAZING! It's good to hear that everyone is doing what they can to help out!

We Remember.

On March 11th, 2011 an 8.9 magnitude earthquake followed by a tsunami hit Japan and it's surrounding areas killings thousands of people and injuring thousands more. Many are left without homes and seperated from their families. An unimaginable amount of damage has been done to the country and has left hundreds of thousands hopeless. We can bring hope to these people and show them that everything will in fact be okay. By donating to the Red Cross, you allow these people to start up a life again, so please take initiative and donate now.

FRESH Off The Runway.

A few weeks ago, every major city in the world was showcasing their fashion weeks. This year, one show in particular caught my eye and for a weird reason. I'm not normally a big fan of this next super fashion house, but this season, they have not let me down. I'd probably call their spring/summer collection the best out of all the up and coming collections. Dolce & Gabbana.Why you may ask? Because it's filled with white clothing, which brings a fresh new look to fashion house and is MY color for the summer. They also feature some sleek black pantsuits which are TO DIE FOR. I can't stop looking at the slideshow for this collection! If you want to check it out, here it is. The dresses are cute and feature a lot of embellishments which is my current obsession.

SECRET: Miley Cyrus wore a D&G dress from this collection in her Marie Claire photoshoot.

Whatta Primadonna.

It's no secret that I ADORE the restaurant scene in Montreal. We have some of the most amazing restaurants with THE best food, ambience and decor and SO many world renowned chefs from around the world. I recently wrote about my experiences at Med and Cavalli, both owned by the same two men, and I'm ready to add another restaurant to that list. Primadonna. Located right across the street from Med, on the happening St-Laurent Boulevard, this is yet another amazing restaurant. The menu ressembles that of Med, italian fusion, with some fish and meat plates and an EXTENSIVE drink menu. The service was also incredible. I really have no complaints about this restaurant. Once again, another hit for Mr. Damiani and Mr. Caruso! Well done! Their last restaurant for me to visit, Buonanotte, located right next door to Med. Keep checking back for my thoughts on that one!

I DIE FOR FASHION.

Fashion is my life. I'm not afraid to admit that. I'd die for fashion. I spend hours and hours looking through every single slide of my favorite designer's runway shows every time fashion week time comes. Milan, Paris, Montreal, Toronto, New York, Miami. SOOOO many fashion weeks to choose from! Obviously, New York is my favorite, because their shows are always impressive and draw a HUGE amount of celebrities and press! Just recently, I found a really amazing site that I check EVERY day, which allows normal people like me to create your own photoshoots with some amazing clothes to showcase your talents and amazing looks. It gives me inspiration if i'm looking for a party look or a girls night out look. The site is called LOOKBOOK.nu and I love to check it every day for the hundreds of new looks thats are posted every day. They even have a mobile site that gives me easy access, even when I'm on the go and while I'm out shopping for an event! This is DEFINITELY a site you need to check out.
