Reading Glasses, so hot right now!

I have decided to pay a lil tribute to the look of reading glasses, or rather, the dark rimmed, slighty oversized at times, look that is so popular and trendy at the moment (and perhaps longer than that!!)

lil preview

Last weekend I went to Toronto to visit with and shoot engagement photos for my bestie Mandy and her financé Shankar.

Here are a few teasers for them :)

Happy Monday!!

Pop Montreal week/weekend

Had the chance to see some great shows this week/weekend. 


Wednesday night at Casa Del Popollo was Share, Lost in the Trees, and amazing talanted singer Conor O'Brien of Villagers.



Share apparently changes their performers often when playing live shows giving it an exciting new sound each time.  I am very excited to check out their duo sound of Coco et Co!
Lost in Trees performance was...wow! Think Arcade Fire meets classical orchestra. Each member, extremely talented playing more than one instrument (accordian, violin, cello, tuba, bass, etc...) adding a classical turn to an indie sound.
Conor J. O'Brien's acoustic sounds was both eerie and entrancing. The Irish native came to Montreal sans band and still managed to blow the crowd away!

Friday night consisted of Zola Jesus, Warpaint and The XX.
All three bands amazing in their own way. The gothic-rock sound of Zola Jesus, the girl punkrock band of Warpaint and the 90's electronic and mellow sound of The XX made for an incredible experience.

ode to sweets :)

Last night, went to a friends place and because we didn't know what to have for dinner, we settled on popcorn, nachos and chocolate. A nice, balanced dinner!

Here is my ode to all that is bad for your insides, yet great for your taste buds

So ends my ode to junk, and another Monday!

Goodbye Lil Peanut

Last night, after getting home from work, my baby girl Mika passed away in my lap. I miss her terribly, though I am happy to know she is running in green fields eating all the almonds, bananas and avocados she can!

Let's recap a beautiful photoshoot I did with her.

I miss you xoxo

Fall 2010: the perfect sweater

So...it is fall and to those of us who love fashion, it is the best time of year! My main challenge of course is resisting all these temptations that we call clothing. I particularly have a weakness for sweaters and can always seem to justify purchasing these, especially thinking ahead to the chilling winters in Montréal.

I was browsing online, and in the stores and came across a few items in which I would love to add to my own closet. My favourite sweaters happen to be the ones with the cool, retro designs, and I am absolutely loving the animal knits.

Enjoy some of my finds :)
