When you wear a size XL, you don’t have a lot of fashionable options, especially in Ottawa. Second, I am even more excited that Joe Fresh now comes in extended sizes (up to size 3X!). Now I can blend my passion for Joe Fresh and my passion for styling curvy women!

Some of my favourite Canadian artists have been nominated this year; Drake, the Weeknd, and Justin Bieber… yes, don’t judge me. What I love about the Junos, is how accessible it is to everyone, literally you can buy your tickets to the Junos online and join the party!

The 5 most important things you need to do before you present a tv segment
For many different reasons, presenting a live TV segment is harder than it seems. Although the spot usually lasts between 4 to 7 minutes, it can take months to plan and loads of hours to coordinate the entire thing.

So for everyone’s benefit, I decided to share my tips on the most important things you need to do before you present a TV segment via a blog post!
