About Me

Ottawa designer sunglasses Fashion blog blogger Chantsy Ottawa Influencer

Hey, I’m Chantal Sarkisian, but you can call me Chantsy! I'm the Creative Director, Editor (and Curvy Model!) at Mode XLusive, a staple Ottawa fashion blog.

Welcome to my creative (and sometimes funny!) fashion journal, where I share practical styling tips, beauty secrets, and personal rants with a refreshing body-positive attitude.
Mode XLusive is your destination for smart fashion talk that offers a glimpse into the local Ottawa fashion and culture scene.

The XL in Mode XLusive is not about size; it’s a lifestyle. So, join me on my journey to living large!

Stay Classic & Classy, XOX Chantsy

  • Great hair starts at home 🏠 And since we’re all home, there’s no better time to focus on your hair. I realize I’m lucky, because I already have a great collection of professional hair products- perks of being an ambassador at @hairrepublic_beautylounge 💜 Since the salons have closed, the management team has deployed their online shop and is selling their inventory at a staff discount rate- that’s 25% off! So you are now basically getting the same perks as me! 💜Use code “shoplocal25”💜 This endeavour will help the cash flow of this small business, and it serves the community because you save on high quality products and get to take advantage of convenient free local delivery! So if you’re going to purchase hair care products, please consider using a local source. It can make a huge difference. If you’re unsure what to buy, you can chat via DM on their Instagram. If you’re looking for suggestions, I’d say this is a great time to try a @moroccanoil colour deposit mask or @unite_hair toning purple shampoo for your blonde hair! Have a great hair day 💁🏼‍♀️ . . #HairRepublic_Partner #hairrepublicbeautylounge #hairrepublicsalon #hairrepublicottawa #ottawasalon #localottawa #ottawahair #ottawacanada #ottawablogger #ottawafashion #ottawafashionblogger #blondebalayage #blondehighlights #blondebabylights #stayhomeottawa #stayathomeottawa #aritziastyle #boyfriendhoodie #midsizestyle #midsizefashion #midsizeblogger #midsize #midsizecollective #canadianblogger

  • Pic or it didn’t happen 🍸 #virtualhappyhour by @tasteandtipple has quickly become my favourite part of the day (other than plank challenge of course!). It starts literally after I sign off from my long workday. Working from home, although exhausting, has been a saviour. It keeps my mind occupied, it normalizes my day and gives us something to be grateful for 💕 during this difficult time. Today, I was excited to partake with all the ingredients to make a #sidecar ... it may become one of my favourite cocktails! It also was a nice nod to my Armenian heritage 🇦🇲 since I used Armenian cognac to mix my drink! Cheers! Kenatz! . #stayathome #stayathomechallenge #stayathomeottawa #stayhomeottawa #virtualcocktailparty #ottawa #ottawacocktails #armenian #armeniancognac
  • Instagram vs Reality 😂 (swipe to get the joke) . I’m so glad you guys are enjoying my plank challenge! I’ve really enjoyed doing quick workouts in the morning to wake me up. It’s also a nice way to add an event in your day, so you don’t feel like you’re always doing the same thing. Honestly, I miss @whereithriveccc and I have to thank them for getting me here, to a place that I enjoy playing with my strength on a routine basis, on my own. Last year, I was in a lot of pain. So much back pain for over a year. It’s not totally gone, but I know how to take care of it now (thank you @integrate_ottawa and @healthymumma613 ). This year, I’m playing with my strength 💪🏻 it’s way more fun! . My 2019 mantra was “find peace with pain”, my new mantra is “find power with peace” ✌🏻 So much can happen in a year. Let’s see where this social challenges takes us. Take care and stay positive 💕 Love you guys, Xox Chantsy

  • Before all this craziness happened, I was working on announcing my official ambassadorship with @eyeseeyow and @wellingtonvisioncare 😭 I’ve worked with them consistently for the last 4 years, but I was so happy to make it official, you know? I’m always amazed at their service to their clients and their generosity to their community. But I just realized, that it’s time to give back to them. They have had to shut down their two centres, and are now working on new ways to serve emergency eye appointments, providing contact lenses orders and eye care supplements, and of course sun wear... they are also offering free shipping/delivery. So if you need any of these services, may I suggest that you keep your purchase as local as you can 💕 . . #ottawa #shoplocalottawa #ottawaeyewear #ottawaglasses #ottawasunglasses #eyeseeyow #merivalevisioncare #wellingtonvisioncare #ottawafashion #ottawablogger #ottawafashionblogger #myottawa #ottnews #stayathomeottawa #stayhomeottawa

Riddle me this: If one pack of @twizzlers Nibs is 400g, and 3 Nibs weigh 39g.... how many days will the pack last me, if I eat 4 every 3 hours? . . The answer: it doesn’t matter because I have a sore throat and there are 3 left 😭 not sure what is more depressing. .
