Toronto Event: Diva Girl Conference

Posted on May 16, 2014May 19, 2014 by Elaine

The DivaGirl Conference was held last month and Kat – a fitness enthusiast was kind enough to attend and cover the event on behalf of Toronto Beauty Reviews! Check out her experience and her purchases!

*****

The 3rd annual DivaGirl Conference  was a fun, educational and stylish event held in downtown Toronto at the exclusive Spoke Club. The DivaGirls celebrate women and enlighten their outlook on health, beauty, fitness, style and relationships.

A perfect Saturday for fun flirty dancing, enjoyable workout classes, vendors with extremely chic merchandise and well-spoken motivators.  Among the collection of goods to see there were a few vendors and speakers that really stood out to me.
Mandy Mullin from Inspired Wellbeing is an independent maker of natural cream products created from her own recipe of all natural ingredients.  These ingredients combine to offer a soft smell and non-greasy texture; I know because I lathered up!  All of Mandy’s products are affordable and plentiful in amount.  Inspired Wellbeing not only focuses on natural creams but their vision is to allow people, specifically women, to regain a connection with nature.  They offer Nature Retreats that allow for rest and relaxation, inspiration and a true experience with nature to connect with the energy of life.

For more information on the products you can email Mandy at mkmullim@hotmail.com.

 

Dr. Sara Celik co-founder of Loseit Tea focused on how women can reshape and strengthen their mind and body by just slowing down and establishing their core values.  Hormones are one of the main factors that skew judgment.  So we need to cleanse, detoxify, workout, eat well, even get to bed early to get rid of all the unwanted stress and build-up of hormones. Loseit Tea is an organic tea company that contains the finest organic ingredients and has been formulated for maximum results to obtain that perfect cleanse!  By slowing down and cleansing, women are given the opportunity to learn about themselves, become grounded, nourished and well balanced in this fast pace world we live in.

Lastly for the more chic and stylish Torontonians , Shop for Jayu offered the most stunning collection of jewelry at the conference.  Homemade in Korea these pop-up jewelers offer affordable, extremely stylish, and easy to wear pieces that are absolutely fabulous!

This admirer purchased a genuine leather bracelet with gold studded accents and a gold linked chain to finish off the whole piece for $36 flat.  I will definitely be purchasing more from their online store!

For all DivaGirl’s check out future events on their website.  It is a wonderful event to empower and honour women!  I hope to be given the opportunity to take part once again in the near future!

Kat lives in the GTA and loves fitness, food and travel. A casual girl at heart she’s more comfortable sporting a cool pair of converse and hoodie but her sense of style has evolved to favouring elegance over bling. You can find her on instagram.

Gang’s all here! 👯‍♀️ I truly love the Gang’s all here! 👯‍♀️

I truly love these @milkmakeup Cooling Water Jelly Tints and wear at least one daily on some combo of eyes, lips, and cheeks. The color payoff is 🤯, the longevity is 😍. They’ve got vegan collagen and aloe to plump and soothe skin. 

For an easy, juicy burst of color this summer, grab yours at @sephoracanada! 🌊

(And check out my blog to learn more about why I love multi-use products!)

Proud ☺️🌈 And loud, since I have the privi Proud ☺️🌈

And loud, since I have the privilege of being able to live my life openly, unlike so many of my 2SLGBTQIA+ peers. I’m a straight-passing cis white woman, so my queerness doesn’t threaten most people. 

So, with that advantage in mind, let me use this small platform to say to anyone who is listening:

Never forget that Pride started as a riot. 

That Pride is more than slapping a rainbow on something, jacking up the price, and saying “love is love” for four weeks out of the year. 

That true allyship involves action and accountability, 365. 

That trans women, two-spirit individuals, and queer folks of color are the heart and soul of our community. That they continue to show up, to fight, to love, and to lead while facing very real danger. That we owe so much to their courage. 

Never forget that queer folks have always been here. 

That you can’t erase us, ban us, or legislate us out of existence. 

That queerness is a part of nature. 

That it exists even when it’s no longer trendy or politically advantageous. 

That we notice and remember who speaks up and who is silent. 

That we contain multitudes. 

That we deserve safety, compassion, legal protections, love, joy, and a future - just like every other human. 

That not all of us are “out” and don’t need to be; that we will invite you in if and when we choose to, and if and when we feel safe to do so. 

That queer folks make the world better. 

And that, despite seemingly insurmountable odds, we’re going to be ok. 

Because resilience, creativity, collaboration, and resourcefulness are fundamental parts of who we are. 

So we’re not going anywhere. Get on board.

Happy Pride!

❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Come with me to pick up the art piece created from Come with me to pick up the art piece created from the flowers in my bridal bouquet! 🥹❤️

Getting my flowers preserved and turned into this incredible piece was one of the best decisions I made during my wedding planning. ✨

Amanda and her team are extraordinary artists (and wonderful humans!) who give your flowers a new life and preserve memories. Every time I walk past this piece on my wall, my heart glows with flashbacks of my wedding day. 

If you have an important event that includes flowers, do yourself a favor and book with Parched to get them preserved. They accept flowers from across Canada, and have worked on blooms marking all occasions of life, from graduations, baby showers, weddings, and memorials. They can even create pendants using flower remnants!
