I’ve gotten a couple emails, instagram requests, and comments on the lego hearts I wear often, on where to find them. I have been fortunate enough to have met the creative minds behind these hearts, and aside from their insanely genius brains, these two brothers are genuinely amazing people. For those who have asked, you can check out/order/ Dee and Ricky HERE.

This afternoon I attended the Press Conference for the first ever PLDT Canada Philippine Fashion Week. What an inspiration. The founder, Jeff Rustia, began the big vision from a paper napkin. No, really. After Jeff’s son passed away from Trisomy [a fatal genetic syndrome], he traveled to the Philippines to collect and find himself. Once he got there, he realized it was a trip that was going to do much more. Jeff started a foundation for children called The Kol Hope Foundation in 2002. He thought, what an extraordinary way to raise money for the foundation, and bring the Filipino Fashion to Canada at the same time. He wrote on a paper Napkin, “Canada, Filipino, Fashion Week”, [not sure of the order, but it was something like that], and before he knew he it, after hundreds and hundreds of letters, he got sponsored from PLDT, and many many others, and was standing before us todayat the Shangri La Hotel in Toronto, discussing the Fashion Week festivities. The fashion and couture already looks incredible, I can’t wait for the week to begin! Come join me? Click HERE

This is me, wearing all my Nuno Rocha jewels [The Diamond Studio] I love mixing and matching gold, silver, and pink gold. It’s Friday, TGIF. Remember the old days, when TGIF meant Sabrina The Teenage Witch Friday nights, and City Guys, Boy Meets World, [mm what were the other ones? Breaker High?] on Saturday mornings. Wait, isn’t Boy Meets World coming back?! Yes, I believe it is. OK, i’ll stop talking to myself now. Shower time.

Happy Friday peeps.
