You know you’re in trouble when you bump into a client and the first thing out of her mouth is, “Where the hell have you been?!?!” Uh oh. Busted. Yup, I’ve been gone. For a while. Not really gone, gone. Well, part of the time I was. Gone that is. Confused? Me too! I had a good reason to be […]
Read MoreI’ve heard it said that some women dress for men, some dress for other women and some dress for themselves. Apparently at least once a day I dress for my dog Cooper, because as soon as I put on a unique combination of items, he knows that we’re going for a w-a-l-k. Getting dressed and choosing my outfit has always […]
Read MoreThese last few weeks, the entertainment and fashion sites have been all about the Jennifers – Jennifer Hudson, Jennifer Lawrence and Jennifer Aniston. What do all three ladies have in common other than their celebrity status and their name? They all lopped off their hair. I wonder if J Lo’s feeling the pressure?

Other than some commitments with clients, I was able to take the month of August off to spend time with my kids, go on holiday and renovate my bathroom. Well, I didn’t actually renovate, but I was a pretty good supervisor. Now that I’m back at it […]
Read MoreThe good thing about summertime is that my kids are home all day and I go into summer mode. The bad thing about the summertime is that my kids are home all day and I go into summer mode. I get very little work done (did I mention my kids are home all day?) and with the constant heat and […]
Read MoreI’m always amazed when people tell me that they don’t like to shop. To me, that’s almost equivalent to not liking to eat. And who doesn’t like to eat? But then I remember that we’re all wired differently and yes, there are some people that don’t enjoy schlepping from store to store looking for the perfect white shirt. If you […]
Read MoreThe other day I had the pleasure of escorting my two children to the Ke$ha and Pitbull concert at the Molson Amphitheatre. Other than it turning into a lesson for them on (a) the colourful and suggestive use of profanity (thanks Ke$ha) (I know, I know – what did I expect?) and (b) the effects of excessive alcohol consumption (No!
