hello again

With the completion of a new portfolio website, I feel that is it about time I rejoined the interweb.

A lot has happened since my last post here - from living in both Paris and New York, doing internships with Christine Phung couture and 3.1 Phillip Lim, to finally settling back in Toronto in a new beautiful apartment - I feel like a different person entirely.

 For my first blog post in about a decade, I've decided to post a sample of what I've been feeling lately. My mind has been very preoccupied with minimalist home decor, ink illustrations, Lauren Bacall hair, and pastel palettes. It's good to be back.

Also: please take a look at my site here!

"our hell is a good life"

A haunting little film shot by the talented Megan Campagnolo on her super sweet Super 8 camera.

Apparently Megan had no way of digitizing the recording so she actually recorded the film on her digital camera while it was projected onto a white screen... bootleg style. 

Featuring my own collection
The lovely girl is Lauren Wood at Ford Models

Song is "Our Hell" by Emily Haines and the Soft Skeleton

"florals? for spring? groundbreaking."

I had to post this exquisitely fabulous editorial shoot featuring one of my pieces! It was an entry for Ryerson's Flare Competition, and was a runner-up for the grand prize (although in my opinion it should have won.... not that I'm biased....).

I have always admired Hannah's work as a photographer and was secretly hoping her team would pull one of my looks, and I love Melissa's makeup artistry - we actually worked together on a shoot a while ago when I was the model.
My dress is the one on the left with the leather belt, the dress in the center is an amazing cut leather piece by Yvonne Lin, and the dress on the right is a crocheted lace piece by Monica Saraguro. Extremely talented girls.

The shoot was edited by Andrea Leask and Paris Nightingale

Hair by Morgan Inniss
Makeup by Melissa Leslie

I personally love the little neon socks with the dresses, I wish every high school girl dressed this awesome.
