I was so excited when I first heard about this event firstly because it’s FLARE Magazine and they were supporting a great cause, The Heart and Stroke Foundation.

The tour started in Vancouver and went on to Burlington, Edmonton, Ottawa, Montreal and will be finishing in Quebec City. My friend and I arrived a few minutes…

I wore a black dress that I made a while back (see here) and my new bubble necklace (which is one of the best statement pieces I probably…
