Fashionotes Stylecasting TIFF event: Outfit Post

Posted on September 16, 2012 by Elaine


          Last Saturday, I was invited to Fashionotes exclusive TIFF event called ‘Stylecasting‘. Hailed as an event for the fashion, film and art lover in all of us, it was a beautiful event held at the Studio, on Nelson Street in Toronto. 

          Fashionotes went all out on this one. Held in a revamped ‘model’ home, complimentary Motts Clemato Ceaser’s, champagne, and Pop chips were doled out to all event-goers. I wonder if the actual home comes with a DJ booth in the living room? 

          I was a little wary of what to wear. Seeing as it was both a Fashionotes and TIFF related event, I knew it was going to be fancy. 

Dress: Rubber Ducky Backless Dress
Shoes: Diba black booties 
Clutch: Dynamite Gold Clutch


          I picked up this gem of a dress on a random work/lunch hour trip to my nearby Marshalls. It was really such happenstance that I came across this dress – I found it a couple days before the actual event.I really wish I took a picture of the back of the dress. It was completely open, and I thought it was a good splash of skin, considering the front was completely covered. I especially loved the lace pattern, with the touch of sparkles throughout! I wouldn’t think lace and sparkles would work so effectively, but I was surprised. Side note though: it came with shoulder pads. I HATE shoulder pads. I cut them out though, and my problem was solved! 


          Here are two other pictures from that night! Both are with my good friend Kathryn, who looks gorgeous in her white sparkle dress!

It was an absolutely tremendous night, that just happened to be topped off with a spontaneous meeting of Alexander Skarsgard and Joseph Gorden Levitt! A lady couldn’t ask for a better night! 

Thanks to Fashionotes for throwing such a remarkable party!

  • Lip balm that changes color depending on your skin’s pH?! @winky_lux pH Lip Balm goes on clear, then transforms to a perfect color based on your skin’s pH (level of acidity). It’s so fun to see what color the balm becomes! It’s giving major mood ring vibes The formula is silky (not sticky), and the color lasts pretty well! So far, I’m impressed. Available at @shoppersbeauty @shoppersdrugmart! —————————————————————————— #torontobeautyreviews #mytbrfave #tbrcontributors #winkylux #shoppersdrugmart #shoppersbeauty #drugstorebeauty #affordablemakeup #crueltyfreebeauty #crueltyfree #phlipbalm #moodring #colorchanging #lipbalm #torontopr #torontobeautybloggers
  • Nail extensions that last weeks but don’t damage your natural nails?!?! Check out the process for getting Après-X nail extensions! There aren’t many salons in Toronto that offer this service, but so far, I’m a fan! I love bio-gel, but I have the WEAKEST nails, so after I get the extensions removed, my nails shred and take forever to grow back out. I heard about this soak-off style, and couldn’t wait to check it out for myself! I haven’t gotten them removed yet, but I’ll update you all when I do! ✅ durable like bio-gel ✅ light and thin ✅✅✅
