Food & Wine | O&B Caters Redefines The Word “Catering”

As most of you will know, the next two words embody quality, elegance and leadership in the Food & Wine world in Canada. Oliver & Bonacini. The iconic company was founded in 1993 by Peter Oliver and Michael Bonacini and has grown to be one of the most successful fine dining companies in Canada. With Restaurants of the highest quality such as Canoe, Auberge du Pommier and Luma (to name a few!), Oliver & Bonacini is in my mind, one of the best there is.

Lifestyle | Le Château Love Birds

Every now and again I like to think I am a pretty fashionable person. By no means would I consider myself the style guru that Julio is alongside FASHIONIGHTS, but I still I do alright! My lifestyle is one that is constantly on the go and I have to admit, finding a wardrobe that matches it can be difficult.  I live the 9-5 desk job life and then I become the event hoping, brand creating, emailing slinging me when the sun goes down. All that to say, I am glad to find a happy medium of style and function in the brands I do wear.

Recently, Julio & I were honoured to be asked to participate in the “Le Chateau Love Birds” campaign. I have always been a believer in the Le Chateau brand and associate myself with their stylish and fashionable clothing on the regular. Continue reading “Lifestyle | Le Château Love Birds”
