I moved to Vancouver, BC* from Lethbridge, AB in 2013 to attend fashion school and I ended up staying here much longer than I had ever anticipated. The choice to stay in Vancouver was very much career-based and I consider myself relentlessly driven. Within the industry I’ve worked in retail, merchandising, styling, wardrobing for concert tours, wholesale and distribution.

In October 2019 I lost my job working in fashion wholesale and decided to not jump into whatever was available next because my ego took a real beating losing my job the way that I did. Despite the fact that I knew for weeks that they wanted to let me go, losing my job confirmed every insecurity I have ever had about my skill set. To fill my time I do this silly thing I often call a blah, blah, blah, do the whole Instagram thing, write for various local publications and do some copywriting – so I guess I should stop calling myself the busiest unemployed girl in the world.
thank you.

I wasn’t entirely sure where you get to thank your readers because I still think I’m the worlds’ worst blogger; I swear a lot, post inconsistently and have no “brand.” I just share whatever the fuck I feel like sharing and I appreciate y’all for allowing me to do so. It means so much to me when you leave comments on my posts, ask me for product recommendations, buy things based on my recommendations. While I may not have the tens upon thousands of followers other bloggers may have my audience is second to none. Y’all are the real MVPs.
