About

I’m a freelance fashion writer living in Toronto.
You are what you wear: I am interested in fashion as a social barometer and shopping with a conscience. I believe what we wear reflects who we are and the world around us. Fashion is fun not frivolous: our choices speak about us and our view of the world. Fashion is more than the clothes we wear; it’s how we feel when we are in them and what they say about our selves.
My hero is Coco Chanel and I feel I am letting her down whenever I wear something corset-y or constricting. I ask Coco’s forgiveness and do it anyway.
