FAT Toronto with Real Talk TV

"I feel that luck is preparation meeting opportunity." - Oprah Whinfrey

It's super amazing how opportunities that I never dreamed of are falling right into my lap! A few months ago, I did an audition for an up and coming Lifestyle TV Show by the name of Real Talk TV. Fortunately, I was one of the hosts chosen for the show and its been a blast ever since! The awesome thing about it is being able to go to shows (without having to pay!), backstage passes, cool clothes and meeting awesome people within the fashion industry. My segment on the show is Plus Size fashion and it's been an awesome few weeks filming.

Last night I was on set at FAT (Fashion Arts Toronto) fashion shows with Real Talk TV! Other than our FRONT ROW SEATS and gift-bags, I was extremely excited to interview plus size and alternative model, Bella Mitchell, who was an absolute doll. She took the time out of the busy backstage hustle and bustle to give us an insightful interview! This year, FAT brought to Toronto over a dozen designers that have included plus sizes within their line! I'll say I was very pleased. Special thank you to the FAT team and to Bella Mitchell for her patience and time!

I decided to make it easy for myself and throw on one beautiful piece from Forever 21 Plus. I just loved the neckline cutouts and the shade of bright blue. My pink wedges are from Torrid and my earrings are courtesy of Canadian designers, Knox & Marley!

EARRINGS: One thing I've noticed about these earrings is that they bring a certain level of drama while still keeping it classy. I LOVE that. As a matter of fact, I just love a noticeable earring. Go BIG or go HOME!

Special shout out to my Mom who took some of the photos above!

Hope all of you are doing well!

You're probably cursing us out saying, "WHERE THE HELL HAVE THEY BEEN?! *side eye*"
I know, we deserve a spanking! This time of year gets so busy for us though. Most of you know that we put on an annual fashion show, "Flawless", around this time of year and it really takes up almost ALL of our time! But no more excuses! We love you guys and that's all that matters. Lets make ya'll happy again! haha.

So this Easter Sunday, both Garcia and I were in service trying to distress and rejuvenate for the week. I've had this mesh-coat-thingamajigger  from Forever 21 in my closet for QUITE some time. When I saw it for 7 bucks, it was on clearance and looked like NO ONE wanted it. Sure enough, I bought it and I decided that it NEEDED to be worn somewhere, SOMEHOW. I paired it with these tribal harem-ish looking pants also from Forever 21 and my brown suede system heels from Torrid. I've always wanted to wear this mesh coat with a bodycon mini, but there's always next time! Plus, it was a bit chilly on Sunday! Something simple for you, hope you like it!

Print and Corals

A few days ago I was treated to dinner along with my fellow co-workers to the amazing CN Tower! Being up so high had me a little scared but the two glasses of wine and a strong shot calmed me down down quickly, lol. The food was delicious and the drinks kept coming! I recommend everyone have dinner there. It was a great view of the city!

 A simple outfit inspired by spring. I paired my all black ensemble with a pop of coral with this Forever21+ chiffon blouse. I added my  brown wedge from Torrid (you all know I love me some Torrid) and an animal print clutch from the lovely Mo over at Clutch Culture! Accessories were minimal, just a feather earring from Suzy Shier. A lot of you out there are scared of color but remember even if the weather isn't the best, use small pieces like a clutch,blouse or accessories to infuse some color in your outfit. Its spring time!

Hope you all are having a Happy Easter!

These are my lovely co-workers.
