Poppy Plaza

-
A great way to spend a Sunday - shooting at Poppy Plaza, a location that opened downtown Calgary in the summer of 2013. It is an interesting spot with a lot going on. There is a nice ambiance with the river running by, city skyscrapers surrounding the area, and cool cantilevered wood plank benches to sit on and enjoy the busy city moving around you. One of my favourite shots is of the model swinging off the letter "M".   The "M" was to represent the brand Malika Couture, as the pieces for that look were pulled from her collection. The following are a few of my favourite shots and some behind the scenes on location.

Taormina Travel Tips

-

Taormina is definitely a highlight of my Sicily trip. My entire experience in this small Island town was serene. Beautiful weather and relaxing. The train runs along the East Coast into the quaint old station surrounded by lush trees and sea shore views. The minute I got off the train I fell in love with the charming town.  Breathtaking panoramas surround you as you drive up the mountain to the town.  Hotels are very old and full of history and elegance... and always have amazing breakfasts (which includes a lot of sweets). Most of the hotels are boutique and family run, which is great for service and a taste of local life. There are some stunning hotels to choose from, each offering a slightly different view and great beaches.  Regardless of where you stay, a room with a view is a must have while in Taormina. There is nothing like waking up to a gorgeous sea & volcano view everyday. It is worth every penny.  Taormina was founded in the 4th century BC and has become a

Let’s face it, undergarments are one of the most important parts of an outfit. Cute designs with a great fit are essential, but comfort trumps all. The new Rose + Vine collection from Ardene is cozy, cute and comfortable. I love the soft fabrics mixed in with lace designs to add a little style to your lingerie. I mixed and matched the Lace Push Up Bustier with these Softie Cheekies, perfect for casual lounging and looking fab under just about anything.  The bustier offers great support and the mesh back also works great layered under a semi-sheer knit.  Check out the R+V collection here . I have teamed up with Ardene to give you guys 15% off sitewide with code: elena15

SMILE BRILLIANT REVIEW

-
Image
After spending the past few years in the U.K., I have become a tea addict.  I drink approximately 2 cups of tea per day in the summer months, and 3-5 in the winter. I love all types of tea; Green, London Fog's, Latte's another other black tea based drinks that warm the soul. Over time this has stained my teeth . I have always had fairly white teeth, although, I have some staining closer to my gum line (tough to see in photos) that I wanted to get ride of. I have been on the search for an  at home whitening system to even out the colour and brighten up my smile. As have a very full schedule, I need a product that is easy to use, doesn't make my teeth sensitive and of course has quick, effective results. When Smile Brilliant reached out to me, I knew I had to try out their whitening system.  I have had my teeth professionally whitened years ago for my graduation, and I found it to work well, however, my teeth were sensitive after. The Smile Brilliant  system includes a d
