Fashion & Style

Who else can feel fall in the air? We recently had our annual apple picking trip as a family and we are all officially in the mood for fall. I love the weather and a change of pace in clothing. Bring on the scarfs, suedes, cords and fairwell to the shorts and my white legs!

Some time in December my friend invited me to a party/shopping event that was held at her friend’s studio, a fashion designer Zanesha Gowrali or Zan, as everybody calls her.

I’ve never been to an event like that, so I was intrigued. Party and shopping combined in one seemed like a perfect combination.

The place wasn’t far from me, near King and Bathurst in the old brick building. Zan and her... Read more
