MTV made my Monday

 



My week was off to an amazing start. On Monday I got to go on a field trip to MTV Canada and watch a taping of The Aftershow where they interviewed Kelly Cutrone.


First of all Casie Stewart, the MTV social media girl, invited a bunch of us Toronto Blog Girls to get dressed by Peach Beserk for the event which was super fun because the lead-up hype to the event was almost as much fun as the actual day. So I had on a pretty party frock to watch the taping.


I can't wait to get Kelly Cutrone's new book "If you have to cry, go outside" for obvious reasons. People say I need to stop being so nice and to be more assertive so this might be a good way to get on that track. Cutrone also famously wears all black. Which I am notorious for. So I am pretty sure I am going to love this book based on that alone.

After the taping a bunch of bloggers, Twitter people and media headed over to the launch of MTV Fora, their online magazine. It's going to be released April 5 so stay tuned. Oh and I get to write for their next issue. Native fashion coming to you mainstream. #Awesome.


People got their panties in a bunch because blogger girls were at the party in prom frocks. I don't get why that's a problem but whatevs. We had fun. The queen of blogging, Raymi The Minx reigns over us in that last pic which I think is hilarious.


I finally got to meet Gloria Chik from urbanbloc at the launch and we had to document it because we actually "met" on Craigslist like over a year ago when she was selling her IKEA Malm bed last year and I almost bought it. Ha ha such a small world huh?

And then Sean Ward and I had an awkward prom picture. I  think I look like a Catholic girl let loose and finally able to see a boy and Sean looks akwardly cute.
After all of that fun I had a quick change because the dress was slowly creeping down. Note to self: when being fitted for a dress suck it all in so it's super tight. Off to Hemingways for drinks.
That's all she wrote.

  2. Anjali - that is so awesome you got to meet her! I should've cut over to Indigo and joined you in the line up - then I would have already had that book in my hands. That is cool about the Sanskrit discussion too :).
