When and why did you start your site?  

July 1^st 2012.  I started Centre Street Style as a creative outlet when I moved to Calgary.

How would you describe your site?  

My site is a lifestyle blog that covers fashion, entertaining, recipes and makeup.   

Where do you get your inspiration?  

I get my inspiration from numerous sources.  Travel, fashion archives, interior design, other blogs, art, the list could go on forever.

Who are your style/beauty icons?  

Designer icon is Christian Dior and the “New Look’.  Style icon, cliché as it is, would be Audrey Hepburn tied with Grace Kelly.  I love the classic femininity they exuded, and how put together they were.  Viewing images of these two ladies consistently results in something fabulous.   

Describe your personal style.  

My personal style is always evolving and changing and how I dress is usually based on my mood that day.  I always come back to a classic and feminine approach though.    

What was the best style/beauty advice you were given?

Always wash your face before going to bed.  And apply sunscreen everyday you’re in the sun, especially as you get older.   

Where are your favourite places to shop?

In Calgary I love shopping at local boutique, Coco + Violet.    

What are your favourite trends for this season?  

My favorite trends for this season are fur vests and studded anything. 

Style/Beauty Pet Peeve?  

When women squish themselves into a size that’s too small.  Muffin tops don’t look good on anyone.

What do you never leave home without? 

Cell phone, wallet and lip gloss. 

What are your five essential items that you think every woman should own?  

A great concealor to hide those late nights out, a fabulous little black dress, a properly fitted blazer that shows you mean business, a leather jacket that you will have forever, and an exquisite pair of shoes.   

       

Where do you see yourself and your site in five years?  

In five years I see my site maintaining the same or heightened level of quality with creative partnerships and more editorial style content.  For myself, in five years I hope for health and happiness and personal and professional satisfaction. 

Tell Petite Adventures readers something random about yourself.  

I grew up playing ice hockey, something that I do to this day.  It taught me about teamwork, hard work, winning and losing.  It was, and still is, a great outlet for stress and frustration.
