Strut for a Cure!

Last year I invited you all to a special fashion show my cousin and I hosted in Canada for a very worthy cause. Well you're all invited once more because we are doing it again!! Erika and I are proud to announce this years (now annual) "Strut for a cure." event.
Presented by the Coast-to-Coast Against Cancer Foundation on May 27th we are uniting fashionable Canadians to raise funds and awareness to fight pediatric cancer.

The idea for the first 'Strut for a cure' was born in 2009 when my 11 year old cousin Erika asked for my help to assist her in raising funds to help children with cancer. Now, 2010, Toronto welcomes the ‘Strut for a Cure’ event featuring my friends from Elite and I in a one-of-a-kind fashion show. One thousand guests will enjoy an evening of fashion, music, entertainment, cocktails, food and dancing! You'll be happy to know that 100% of the dollars raised will go toward improving the survival rate and quality of life of children and their families impacted by cancer.
Other guests attending include DJs: DJ Adrien Villanova, Paris & Saint-Tropez, DJ jojoflores, Gotsoul Montreal, Monk by Templar, DJ Keidy, Miami. Not only that but Fashion Telivisions Jeanne Beker will be Emcee for the evening!
If you would like to help out in any way, please go to www.strutforacure.com to see what you can do. Make sure to check out the contests we are throwing there as well.


Hope to see you all there!!!

I Will Follow Him


Lately it seems like I've had only the wedding on my mind. Late the other night my roommate Jessica, my friend Lillian and I decided to make a funny little video. It was meant for James but we decided it was too funny to keep to ourselves.  I hope you enjoy it because we certainly enjoyed making it!!!

This is what happens when three girls are up at 3:00 in the morning, and have nothing to do...

Coco Cola


What do you get when you mix one part Coca Cola, one part Coco Chanel and one part Coco Rocha? Don't think too hard - apparently you get this new ad for Coca Cola Lite!
I was super excited when I got the call to work on this project for Coke, especially when I found out Mr. Karl Lagerfeld was behind the design and the camera. Karl designed the bottle with his iconic silhouette on the side and then dressed me as the femme version of him. I remember at one point in the shoot Karl didn't think I had on the right accessories so he stopped the shoot and headed home to bring me a pair of his own gloves and then took off his tie pin and rings for me to wear!! Amazing!

Look for the ad to launch later this month!
