Four Seasons Holiday Getaway


If you're looking for the perfect holiday getaway the Four Seasons hotel in Toronto is the perfect relaxing retreat. 

When I first walked into the premiere room I was instantly impressed by the spacious and relaxing design. The settle decor and matching artwork creates a soft dreamy feel to the room. As someone who I really admires interior design, I found myself fascinated by the selected artwork and wall accents. One of my favourite features of the room would have to be the crescent-shaped sofa that's ideally designed for intimate conversation. 

When it comes to hotels, having a nice bathroom with the perfect lighting is something I find at the top of my priority list.  -and what more could you ask for than having a TV hidden in the mirror?
The Dream bathroom with spacious counters and granite interior is really luxury at it's finest.

The floor-to-ceiling windows showing the view of downtown Toronto really makes a site to see especially during the night. Since these rooms are located high up on the 10th to 21st floors the downtown noise wasn't a disturbance in the slightest -even on a Friday night when the city becomes more lively. 

A night wouldn't be more complete without a quick visit to the spa where a sunlit indoor relaxation pool and hot tub adjoins to an outdoor terrance overlooking the city of Toronto.

Lastly, I must mention that the concierge team was very professional and welcoming upon our arrival and offered to help us with transportation later in the night. Below are more photos from my relaxing getaway and breakfast at Café Bouloud. Thanks for stopping by and hope everyone is having a lovely weekend!~

LOT42 Grand Opening Event

It's been a while since I've made a blog post but I wanted to share my experience from one the events that I recently attended on October 21st. The Grand Opening event for LOT42 Global Flex Campus was a night full of great live performances and really cool art displays. "A space for creators, developers, changers and movers to come alive."  The warehouse was transformed into a exhibit of eye catching art by muralists Bruno Smoky and Jerry Rugg. Headlining at this event was Tyler Shaw, Skratch Bastid along with some other amazing performers and it was so wonderful to see them all live. I look forward to more awesome events held at this revolutionary event space in the future. Photo credit: Nick Lee, Best of Toronto for capturing some of these amazing photos included in this blog post.

JD Sports // Nike Air Force 1


Today I'm sharing my newest pair of trainers that I got from JD Sports. These Nike Air Force 1 in triple white are light and extremely comfortable and I'm really pleased with the feel of them. They also arrived really fast in the mail and I was quick to break them in. It also makes it really easy to style as most of my active clothing is also black and white. Check out the JD Sports website for more Nike Air Force 1 shoes. Thanks for stopping by! Have a great weekend!

Toronto Events: Artbound // AmexCobalt


Toronto always has exciting events going on in the city, but last Thursday would have to have been more electrifying than most! It started off with a pop-up restaurant event created in celebration of American Express Canada's new card where guests got to enjoy a five course meal cooked by Chef Antonio Park. What's great about the new #AmexCobalt card is that it's targeted for a younger audience with some major rewards when doing all the fun things like travelling, eating, shopping and even taking a taxi. #YouDoYou is a celebration to yourself by getting rewarded by just doing what you like and not having to work around the card. 🙌🏻💳✨
Later in the night I got to attend Artbound; a party with purpose. This night of transformative talent was overflowing with inspirational people and creative performances. 
The theme of this event was #worldwithcolour while all guests took part in a black & white or full colour dress code. Party with a purpose was created to raise money to fund creative programs currently in six countries and with a goal to expand in the future.  It was also great to see Busty and the Bass, a nine member hip-hop soul group from Montreal who I must mention sounds amazing live! My favourite part of the night was when I spotted the lead singer and got a chance to chat with him right before they went on stage. #Artbound was such a wonderful experience and I appreciate all the hard work and planning it took to organize such a successful event. Thanks for stopping by, till next time! -Bobby 🌃
