If at first you don't suceed... Try something else!

So...




Stitches are out, yay! BUT I may never regain full feeling in my pinky ever again. Well, that's what you get for talking on the phone while weilding a butcher knife and being naturally blonde. And my finger looks sooooooooooooooooooooo hideous!!! Urgh!





In other news, I did another fashion show for conisgnment and rental store ReMix which was one of the closing shows of Toronto Fashion Week. A lot of fun, but very crazy and fast! Got a lot of free sh*t though, free sh*t is always good.





Still searching through my University options, Ryerson it starting to seem more and more like the better option but I'm going to go and talk with someone before I make a final decision.





Otherwise this has been an uneventful couple of days. Been to the Parent's places since Sunday night, hence why it has been so uneventful.





I recieved a few photos though from a shoot back in July, I'll share some here with you. Enjoy!




Peace, love and lingerie!

Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water...

OH MY GOD!
HELLO!
Long time no speak!
Yes I've neglected this but I thought it was about time to return because clearly everyone needs to hear my witty recalls of my everyday life (whatever, whatever) plus I wanted to start tracking my progress of what I call... "PROJECT GET VICTORIA A CAREER SHE'LL ACTUALLY ENJOY IN LIFE AND MONEY... LOTS AND LOTS OF MONEY!!!"
But in all seriousness, I am trying harder to get my feet off the ground. Unfortunatly the dancing idea did not go according to plan. The only likely hood of me getting into a dance company is if it was a ballet company, and that itself is HIGHLY unlikely considering I never went to the National Ballet School of Canada or the Paris Opera Ballet School (but that would have been so cool!!!!!!!!). But I found a greater love....
Acting!!! So I have decided to return to school, but persue the more academic side of acting. I also wanted to incorporate creative writing, maybe playwright. I will be documenting my attempt at finding a suitable course, school, etc and then eventually (and hopefully) my experiences at whatever course, school, etc that actually has the balls to take on someone like me. Woot!
I will continue with the modeling but in all reality it can only take me so far. My passions lie elsewhere, plus I really need to find something that will prevent me from blowing my brains out, which has seemed more and more like a brilliant idea these days.
Updates:
1) Quit one retail job for another, but one with nicer people!
2) Had extensions put in my hair. I feel like a girl again.
3) Sliced my finger open and caused nerve damage while trying to seperate frozen burgers during Thanksgiving weekend. Looks like I'll be making slicing-my-skin-wide-open-for-stitches-at-Toronto-General an annual thing from now on.
4) Have been doing plenty of fashion shows lately.
5) Finished levels one and two French at the University of Toronto Continuing Education.
6) One of my finches passed away... And then the other one!
7) Discovered I have an unhealthy addiction to watching "Jersey Shore". It's like crack, you know that sh*t is bad for you BUT YOU JUST CAN'T STOP!!!

Well, from now on I'll try to keep this blog up to date for all my loyal fans!!!... *Cough Cough* In which case I mean the two "followers" (one I don't even think exsists as a real person, it's just a lone profile page). Nevertheless, I will try to keep this up to date.
Next time on my blog...
New portfolio photos!
Peace, love and stitches!!!

"Just because you know where I've been doesn't mean you know where I am going."

I found those words on a wall walking down the street after my hot pilates class. Makes you think...

So I seemed to have made a collection of pictures of my outfits. I've been pretty proud of the clothes I've thrown onto my body lately so I thought I would show you a few.

This first outfit is a body con dress and boyfriend jacket both from FCUK and knee high socks from H & M with booties from Zara.


This outfit I wore to the Til Ten event at the Bata Shoe Muesum. Shoes and pants from FCUK, leotard from American Apparel, jewelry from Aldo and whatever bangles I found lying around and of course, my Chanel purse! :)



Same outfit minus jacket.

This is what I wore for Peggy Baker's performance "Confluences". Top from New Look with black bandeu from Jean Machine. Jeans by Current Elliot from Artizia, belt from The Gap and boots from Spring.


I wore this oufit to the Hideout one night. I found the white lacey dress hiding in my closet, I bought it when I was in grade 11 from Clik Clak. Jacket from FCUK, head band from Aldo, braclet and earings from Laura and boots from Spring.

Well, I'm off to "Bedfordshire" (a.k.a. bed) so I'll try to keep you more updated with my life than I have been lately.

Peace, love and fashion!

Long time, no blog!

Sorry I haven't been on here for quiet awhile. Haven't been myself lately. I felt that everything I've been working so hard for have just been falling apart at the seams. After meeting with an agency I have never felt fatter or had so much disdain for my looks before in my life. I've also felt quiet alone.

But things are picking up. I'm changing some things round in my life and pushing myself again.

On a different note... I am offically obsessed with the music artist from Sweden, Fever Ray. Her music videos are incredible, something I would find when I sleep and dream at night. Here's her video to "Keep the Streets Empty for Me."

Peace, love and determination!

Such beautiful words...





Well, I have nothing
I have no one
I've been so quickly set free
and I love nothing
I love no one
Are words that you whisper in my mind, to someone
I don't know
to someone I don't know
to someone

So walk with me
on this new spring morning
I'll walk you 'till your fears are none
I'm a new baby weeping
I'm the flower you're keeping
that without love will wilt and die

I need your life in my life
need your life in my life
need your life

so come back to me
my darling
come back to me
my darling

I'd do anything to be at your side
I'd be anyone to be at your side
I need your life in my life
need your light in my life
need your light...
Peace, love and music!

Jumped in the river what did I see? Black eyed angels swam with me.

So I just did a fabulous photo shoot today with a fabulous photo photographer named Stephen Loban. Would you like to see them? Okay here you...







FYI, these are still unedited so be kind!

Peace, love and juicy couture knock offs!

Not me, I want to be the one who walks in the sun

I got my camera and took some pictures...




















And then I went for a walk and look what I found...















My love...





Peace, love and long walks!

This ones for you...


You thought you had it figured out, you thought you got it right,
You thought you had me without a doubt, you thought your grasp was tight,
But I can't make things easy, my mind isn't set in stone,
Because I can't love one who loves me, that's why I'm always alone.

(Written by me circa Febuary 5, 2009.)

Peace, love and hearts! xo

Just like an angel, your skin makes me cry.

Can't we just stop and appreciate the beauty that is Jessica Stam. I am loving her spread in the latest edition of Fashion. She is just all over f-a-b-u-l-o-u-s! I want to be her so bad. Note to self, visit more Tim Horton's in small towns more often!
















Peace, love and Stam bags! xo

You're so imperfectly perfect...











To fatigued to write anything clever and witty with this post. So just love it for what it is.
Peace, love and snowflakes!

The age of beauty and change is upon us!


















I'm not going to lie. I really feel like I'm floating in and out of each day, not really taking in what is going on around me, not analysing what I'm really doing or how my actions might effect me later. Don't feel very real these days.





Kareoke + Alcohol = Bad combination clearly from the looks of this picture from Monday night! Yikes!



On that note, I'm leaving you with a few doodles of my creation. Enjoy!























Peace, love and kareoke!

Stop being so nostalgic...

So I have begun my descent into logging my hum drum life into the "world wide web" for all you lovely, crazy, angry, narcissistic, perverted, lazy, sadistic and perturbed people who obviously have some sort of interest in what I have to say or what I have seen or what I think about the world. So why don't we begin?...


Well yesterday was probably one of the best days I have had in a very long time. Doesn't the holidays just bring the absolute worst out of people? I finally found one day in this year that I can salvage and bury into my crevice of good memories.


Mmm... Blueberries!


So I'm trying to get a shoot going in the style of a beautiful horror scene, a la Lara Stone, but so far it seems to be going to the shitter, so to speak! I would love to get this finalized, I think it
would be amazing for not just my portfolio but everyone from the photographer to the MUA.



























I hope it doesn't get taken over by the photographer. I felt less restricted in my last photo shoot. I was able to get exactly what I wanted out of the photos and finally had something completely different from the rest of my portfolio. Just have to wait and see I guess. Patients is virtue... Well at least that is what some derranged people have informed me on at the most irritating of times!




Peace, love and smiles to you all. Until next time!
