Dear Blackberry Torch Can We Be Friends Again?

While on vacation in Toronto the camera on my Blackberry Torch just decided it had enough of my snapping pics of everything (FYI I take pictures of every meal I sit down to eat)  it was going on hiatus. I wasn't too happy with this I was cursing Balsille and folks at Research In Motion for their horrible (this is what I was thinking at the time, I was bitter) excuse for a mobile phone.  I was also cheesed that while texting BB didn't recognize the word Calgary. WTH Balsillie your are Canadian fix that asap. So as you can tell because I was bitter everything became a problem. Luckily, for me it wasn't anything major I just had to take the battery out and voila the problem resolved itself.  If only life was that easy, if only. Below is a link to the Blackberry site that I looked to for tech support.

Winners, Red Hot Heels & Red Hot Deals

When it comes to fashion I am one of the cheapest most frugal people I know. If there is a bargain I fill find it. Having worked in retail I know when to shop...in summer shop for winter and vice versa.  You'd be surprised how much thing cost when they are not in season or demand. As a person who loves bargains Winners (to my American frriends I believe Marshall's is the equivalent store) is my to store for great clothes and shoes that won't leave your pockets empty. I got a wonderful pair of red suede Badgely Mischka pumps from Winners....what a deal! Nothing makes me happier than great shoes at a great price. Also while I was in Toronto I got to buys a few things from spoof EVERYTHING I purchased that day was $8.99, let's just say I left that store a very happy woman. Fashion and looking great is always awesome but don't go broke trying to be a fashionista....style has no price as far as I'm concerned.


Winners....best store EVER


SHOES: Badgely Mischka $49.99 CDN @ Winners


DRESS: Spoof $8.99 CDN (Queen Street West Toronto)

My Toronto Is Lovely

I recently got back from the happiest place in the world, no not Disneyland,but Toronto. Okay to me it's the happiest place in the world because almost everyone I love so dearly lives there. The moment I stepped off the plane  I could feel the energy and the vibrancy of Toronto.  It was such a warm welcome (the weather was great) to a cosmopolitan civilization. Small towns are nice and quaint but they are not as sexy as cities. I got to see a lot, take pictures, shop, shop, shop and enjoy time with my family and old wonderful friends.
