I love Toronto and everything it has to offer. Moving from Pakistan about three years ago was challenging but living downtown has allowed me to never feel alone or bored. Every day and every area feels like a new adventure. This series will focus on 5 of my favourite features of a Toronto area. Today I’ll be covering the quaint and ever colourful Leslieville. It feels like a charming little town (very Stars Hollow-esque) where […]
A workshop, a meet-up, a class, an experience? I’m not sure what exactly to call the last four weeks at her-people but I would say it was a culmination of all four and then some.

I was introduced to Foxy Originals, a trendy designer jewellery brand, when I saw a few of their pieces at Indigo. Since […]
At Nordstrom Eaton Centre’s latest pop-up store “Get Wired” there are a bunch of tech baubles every girl wishes she had. Apart from some really weird gadgets, there are a few that sparked my interest and here they go in no particular order: 1. Philo Phone Covers These are definitely eye catching to say the least! On closer inspection, they live up to their trendy name. Philo is about fusing fashion and tech to […]
