When Africa came together.

Last Saturday I went to an annual event called Africa Night.  The African students from both Dalhousie University and Saint Mary's University come together for a great night as we celebrate diverse African cultures through music, dance, food and fashion.  I did a little show for them this year.  I made a small collection for the night and had 4 models to showcase the clutches. For now I will just do an outfit post of what I wore. Will share the rest when I have them all!

Love, 
Mo

Fashion Week Outfits

Hello Lovers, 

Sorry this is late.
Here are all the outfits that I wore to Fashion Week. 
My favorites are days 2 and 3! 
Day 4 and 5 had to be in flats because I stubbed my toe and it hurt quite a bit. 
The flats were SO welcome though..HAHAHA.. I am not built for 5 consecutive days in heels :)
anyways, check the outfits!

Love,
Mo
 

 


 

 

All about the BOW

Hello Lover, 

Today was a BEAUTIFUL day. It was a  weirdly hot day at 27 degrees in March.
Normally in March we are still knee deep in snow so you can imagine EVERYONE was out today. 
I wore a laid back outfit, let the natural hair out and made it pop with a big bow. 
This post is all about the BOW :) 
Check it!
Love, 
Mo

Free Days

Hello Lover, 

After Fashion Week was done I had a few free days before I had to fly back home to Halifax. 
I spent those days meeting up with friends, catching up on sleep and posts and shopping for fabric and figuring out my next move for clutch culture. 
Here are a few pictures I snapped throughout my free days.

Love,
Mo



Moments with.... Donisha Prendergast

Hello Lover, 

On the last day of Fashion Week a new friend, Black Sebath, introduced me to Donisha Prendergast, one of the granddaughters of the prolific Bob Marley.  We chatted for a bit and I shared some of the things I have a passion for.  Later on in the evening I had the honor of going backstage to watch her prepare for a runway show she was walking in for the Dare to Wear Love initiative to raise funds and awareness for HIV/AIDS in Africa. 

These are the moments that I captured.
Love,
Mo

p.s. The runway shows are by Paul Ross, Opique

Last Day Toronto Fashion Week Street Style








Dare To Wear Love

Dare To Wear Love is a fashion show held to help raise awareness and funds to aid those affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa.  Designers who participated made an outfit and got a model of their choice to model the outfit.  This show was the PERFECT end to fashion week.  The mood was unreal, it was electric.  This was definitely one of my best moments of the week. 
Check it out!

Love,
Mo
