Right in time for Halloween comes Netflix’s CHILLING ADVENTURES OF SABRINA! Filmed right home in Vancouver, we present you some new stills from the exciting new Series!

Synopsis:
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina imagines the origin and adventures of Sabrina the Teenage Witch as a dark coming-of-age story that traffics in horror, the occult and, of course, witchcraft. Tonally in the vein of Rosemary’s Baby and The Exorcist, this adaptation finds Sabrina wrestling to reconcile her dual nature — half-witch, half-mortal — while standing against the evil forces that threaten her, her family and the daylight world humans inhabit.

Cast includes: Kiernan Shipka, Miranda Otto, Lucy Davis, Ross Lynch, Michelle Gomez, Chance Perdomo, Jaz Sinclair, Richard Coyle, Tati Gabrielle, Adeline Rudolph, Abigail Cowen, Lachlan Watson, Bronson Pinchot and Gavin Leatherwood.

It’s been about four months since Princess’ (A Pic by Mrwill) retirement as a racehorse and she’s settling in nicely into her new surroundings. While her new owner Miss Emily is awaiting the completion of some renovations at her home, including an indoor and outdoor stall for Princess, she’s been recovering from her fractured Sesamoid nicely at a boarding facility out in Caledon.

Cathy, Princess’ former owner and I decided to surprise her this past weekend and before we made our way in, she started nickering as soon as she heard our voices within earshot. We were overjoyed to see her in good spirits, slipping her fave Fuji apple slices and carrots through the bars of her stall.

Miss Maggie who owns the facility, was nice enough to open her stall for us after she finished her breakfast and she almost burst right through, wanting to come out and greet us. We estimate Princess will be on stall rest for about another month, but she’s doing it in style at least in a cute pink cast bandage from Miss Emily.

Princess has been a hit at the farm, which boards among other several gorgeous Paint ponies, with kids coming in throughout the week to receive riding lessons. One sweet girl named Victoria was so kind to write Princess this lovely note:

Aww! We’re glad to see we’re not the only ones who realize how special Princess is!

Miss Emily also reports to us that Princess has taken a liking to these things called Likits, which are like candy and a toy in one, providing her hours of entertainment in flavours like Apple, Banana, Carrot, Cherry, Garlic, Honey & Camomile, Mint, Molasses, Salt and Sport (Electrolyte). What will they think of next?

Great care and love go into Princess’ diet and we can some spot some dapples, a sign of good health, forming on her coat. She certainly has put on a little weight, but she looks fantastic and still v. fit. Surely she can’t wait to go out and show that all off!

Miss Emily although busy with work and eventing, always makes time in her day for our girl, sometimes spending hours just watching her:

And it seems she’s already v. popular with the boys…

Some more Snaps of our morning with Princess, as we her old and new family come together to celebrate her!

She always saves a snuggle for me:

We hope to pop by to see her again soon after her new home is ready!  In the meantime, Princess is so proud of her former stablemate Aheadbyacentury who has been killing it in the Canadian Triple Crown thus far with second-place finishes in both the Queen’s Plate and Prince of Wales Stakes!

Synopsis:
Set between Paris, Prague, Nuremberg, Manchester, the Polish countryside and the Roman seaside, Nico, 1988 is a road-movie dedicated to the last years of Christa Päffgen, known by her stage name “Nico”. One of Warhol‘s muses, singer of The Velvet Underground and a woman of legendary beauty, Nico lived a second life after the story known to all, when she began her career as a solo artist. Nico, 1988 is the story of Nico‘s last tours with the band that accompanied her around Europe in the Eighties: years in which the “priestess of darkness”, as she was called, found herself again, shaking off the weight of her beauty and rebuilding the relationship with her only forgotten son. It is the story of a rebirth, of an artist, of a mother, of the woman beyond the icon.

More and more are we letting comfort dictate our style and with Fall/Winter around the corner, the possibilities of layering and combining pieces to achieve that effortless look are infinite. Roots launches their #Sweatstyle campaign, connecting confidence with comfort and some of Toronto’s gleaming gems got to celebrate the affair at Roy Thomson Hall tonight.

Ringing-in the occasion was the evening’s musical guest, bülow, one of Canada’s hottest new emerging acts after dominating our airwaves with her breakthrough hit Not a Love Song. The Track has tallied 26+ million streams on Spotify and the fresh-out-of-high school-talent tells us lots of new music is coming up from her.

Check-out some of her stuff below:

We also spotted another Roots ambassador, Toronto’s Langston Francis (second photo down) who was out mingling with Toronto’s social circle.

A bad experience in the Honda Accord? Never! The 2018 HONDA ACCORD HYBRID TOURING nails all the marks once again and this Civic Day long weekend we had the pleasure of a test drive in this latest from the outstanding Honda Canada family of vehicles.

Performance wise, the 2018 Honda Accord Hybrid Touring is pure power. We’ve driven several options from the Civic family which we think highly of already, but you realize the difference right away with the Accord‘s 1.5-litre, 16-valve, Direct injection, DOHC, i-VTEC turbocharged 4 cylinder engine, 192 horsepower @ 5500 rpm and 192 lb.-ft torque @ 1600-5000 rpm. Fuel economy is a top selling point for us and we have come to expect this with vehicles by Honda Canada. Our drives were long and out trips frequent and we were impressed just how far its ECON mode took us and for how little!

Spilling with luxury, this flashy headturner in platinum white pearl, garnered us a few DMs from friends who spotted us driving about, inquiring about the ride. One commented, that they saw us gliding smoothly through speed bumps, which is the truest testament as this isn’t something a friend has gone out of their way to say to us before.

We are in love with the Accord’s super-sizey 7″ colour TFT meter display, giving us access to its display audio system, compatible via Bluetooth with our smartphone’s music library and of course the now-necessary Spotify. We never take for granted the SiriusXM capability and the Accord‘s 452-watt premium audio system with 10 speakers including subwoofer are simply majestic and make every drive a symphony!

Staying safe and connected via text messages which are readable via the meter display when convenient for us, plus being able to accept and make calls easily, allows us to be efficient and make the most of our time-crunched day. We love that there are multiple charging ports, plus also a charging plate for our smartphone so we never have an excuse to miss anything!

We love those perforated leather-trimmed seats with heated steering wheel, front and rear seats, which would be ideal in our chilly winters. The seats even cool down too for our hot summers! In terms of climate control we don’t think we’ve sat in a car with more powerful air circulation and those sitting in the back would agree also, with its rear console ventilation.

We don’t recall what life was like without that handy proximity remote entry and being able to pop our trunk open with our hands full of bags (and Billy!) and Honda Canada once again asserts its place as a leader in innovation and user-friendliness.

Safety continues to be a huge priority for the Automaker. We admit we are a little obsessed with the holographic windshield speedometer which actively lets us know when we are exceeding or reaching the speed limit. Its Blind Spot Information System (BSI) is pardon-the-pun spot-on, particularly handy together with its rearview camera letting you know when you are backing-out of a parking spot and cars are in the vicinity. The same applies to its Forward Collision Warning, keeping us aware and alert of potential dangers. The Accord‘s i-SRS Airbag System and front knee airbags are best in class and we drive assured knowing the Accord has our back… and front!

We have nothing ACCORDlades for this beauty.

Just some of our awesome weekend adventures. Wish you were there!

Together forever. A fun Friday with my boy in the luxurious 2018 @HondaCanada Accord. Happy Civic Day!

Few Artists understand and know how to execute that connection to their fans like Taylor Swift. Now onto her fifth tour, the acclaimed and influencial 28-year-old Singer/Songwriter touched-down at Toronto’s Rogers Centre for two energy-filled nights, August 3-4, 2018. The Stadium tour in support of her 2017 studio disc Reputation, sees her delivering her catalog of hits once again, with an emphasis on that album which dealt with some of her very public personal battles and her perception.

Fans attending Swift’s Reputation Stadium Tour are gifted with an extravagant spectacle with a recurring snake motif which keeps popping-up throughout. Some can interpret this as her owning the label she so publicly has been given since Kim Kardashian had accused her of dishonesty in a much-talked-about scandal between Swift and husband Kanye West. More here.

Fans got a much more sensual, self-assured Swift over two nights at the Toronto venue, by far her most refined and heavily-choreographed stage production yet. She pronounces proudly her full transformation to Pop Icon status from her humble Country beginnings. Everything from three stages extending deep into the audience, to her being propelled into the air while performing the down-tempo Delicate were artfully-calculated moves to make for an intimate experience. She took a moment before that song to deliver some candid candor about accepting the fact that people will never stop talking about us behind our backs and that we should embrace it. Guests even were gifted with lit-up wristbands synced in colour to the night’s setlist. Lucky fans who lined Swift’s “Snake Pit” got a chance to touch her hand as she zig-zagged her way through fans.

Joining Swift on-tour were Charli XCX and Camila Cabello, giving fans three shows for the price of one and they re-surfaced late in the show to join her in a rendition of hit Shake it Off. An even bigger bomb-drop came towards the end when Swift presented also touring Canadian Rockstar Bryan Adams on-stage for a duet of his hit Summer of 69, driving the audience ballistic!

See some Snaps from the night. We were way, way up but felt so close to it all, kudos to Swift!
