I know you’re out there, I can feel you now. I don’t know the future, I didn’t come here to tell you how this is going to end, I came here to tell you how it is going to begin. I am going to shut down down now and you are about to enter a place that is unexplainable, a place where you are able to determine your own path, a world without rules or exceptions – you can stay or shall you exit is a choice I leave up to you.
Similar to the beats pill, it’s not what you think. By the end of this blog post, there will be no answers, only more questions. However the question you may seek it is the most predictable but also the most irrelevant. Why am I here? Who are you? Is this real? We are born, only to get to a place never seen before. Or is it all an illusion? A figurative of our own imagination?
This can’t be real? What is real then? If not the real world? If the mind perceives it to be real, does it make it real?
If you’re talking about what you can feel, smell, taste and see then real is simply electrical signals interpret by your brain. That Deja vu is not evidence of a glitch but a distraction to the outside world. To stop you for a single moment in time and keep you from getting to where you need to be. Is a dream something that is real? Unable to wake up from? Only to remind us that there is no difference between me or my dream self.
And if it’s all an illusion why not achieve the impossible. Being able to cross mirrors and enter the unexpected? Or being in two places at once? What if we already are? Is our mind playing tricks on us? On what we can and cannot do? We see only what we want to see – do not try and bend the spoon, instead only try to realize there is no spoon, and then the impossible becomes possible.
Who says a place called Zion is more real than time in space? And who says Earth is more real than a made up computer program? Why do my eyes hurt? It is the ability to chose whether or not you want to live in Zion while you were a mere battery feeding off artificial intelligence.
It’s the question that drives us…what is the matrix? What is the good life? And if the Matrix is an alternate reality, is artificial intelligence possible? But what if you chose to be in the matrix? What if this is our fantasy? Is fantasy sometimes better than reality? Is it better to know the truth or is ignorance truly bliss?
You will never find the answers you are looking for…Until it becomes so clear, it will never be, you will forever be torn between the red or blue pill. But once you chose, was it the colour that chose for you? Do you believe in fate? Excepting the fact that we are not in control of our life but only put on a path we were destined to follow?
Where to go from here, is unclear. There is something you know but unsure what that is – it is like a splinter in your mind and has brought you right here on both sides of a black and white screen.
Do you want to know what it is? Or were you staring at the women in the red dress? Correction: Size petite, a little black dress from La Perla! It is everywhere, even now in this very room.
Is Vinyl an absolute must have and ready to wear? Press play and I will show you just how deep the rabbit hole goes.
As simple as 1 + 1 = 2, a formula for vinyl can be worn one of two ways: together or separate…paired with contrasting fabrics or solids, mixing in prints or texture, we love the combination of sexy, smooth and shiny paired with silk, velvet, linen or cashmere reborn.
As seen in the picture below I am currently wearing a high shine and high rise fit legging with a four way stretch and excellent recovery. Can be worn with one of three: a sexy bodysuit or a faux leather or shiny tube top, from double breasted silhouettes, deep pockets and a black vent the Erma Leather trench is as comfortable as it is sexy.
Long or sometimes short a vinyl trench by Aritzia’s Babaton makes for a very dramatic bold choice. Its glossy and incredibly sleek, with a belted button down, patched pockets and easy drop shoulders – from pointed toe ankle boots, over the knee, slickers and Oxford…which one will you try first? If there patent, that’s it! And a micro-mini skirt to match.
Super high tech yet retro, black, sleek and slightly intimidating these fabulous sunnies can also be extremely fun. Sponsored by Givenchy, cat-eye inspired, rectangular, round, square, black, white, silver or see-through…you can go for either incredibly small, too slightly bigger as seen on Trinity once or twice before.
All of these material items, this life that is worth living have been part of a world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.That we must wake up and enter a new way of reality.
See I know you, I know what you’re going to do next, you just can’t help yourself. is it your own desire to do as I say? or me simply knowing what it is you’re going to do next? Don’t you want to know the answer?

Between you and me…POOSH is my new best friend. Warm tea, soft pillows, VOGUE! I put on the coziest sweater, turn up the radio and lounge around indulging in some personal pampering like: singing in the shower, online shopping, watching NETFLIX & experimenting with eye makeup.
Scrub a dub dub, Splish splash I was takin’ a bubble bath…
A good scrub & body oil (currently loving this one & this one) will help buff away any unwanted skin cells, is super moisturizing and provides suppleness and comfort to the skin, leaving a mouthwatering scent of fresh almonds.
If I’m looking to pamper my skin some more, I’ll follow up with a combination of many moisturizers, specifically Muscle Melt & Almond Delightful Body Balm. Its rich and melting texture leaves behind an ultra soft finish and is perfect for regular pampering routines. My skin has never felt so good!

Coming to the blog sometime soon an editorial broken down on how to achieve the new “Strawberry It Girl”.

Surrounded by bright lights and soft fabrics this weeks blog post takes place in Solarium. With its white floor and ceilings, natural textures and minimalistic tones, my absolute favourite was the oversize New York style loft windows.
A little less dramatic and slightly more neutral – a settle brow and basic lip. Keeping her eyes to a minimum…I must say she is looking beautifully bronzed.

After a long season of barely their makeup we decided to go for a warm and dewy glow with a dramatic gold, glittery eye and nude lip/ highlighter along the bridge of her nose, cheek bones and cupids bow.
A twist in the right direction, its time for the corny collins show – brought to you by ultra clutch hairspray.

In todays blog post, I am extremely excited to be sharing my most recent branding shoot, photographed at Mintroom Studios – generating new content for my website and social media platforms.
The Conservatory with its white walls and and open feel was the ideal location to showcase a wedding inspired picture, in a simple and creative way.
The big stain glass windows really allowed light to shine through, complementing the brides hair and makeup perfectly.
Aesthetically the look of a blushing bride is one often that is requested. This shoot combines peachy gold tones with a fun and perfectly tousled pull through braid – perfect for spring and summer just around the corner.
