Style Cat, Inc.

I have been surrounded by fashion and design and creativity my entire life – my grandmother was a wardrobe stylist, my mother an interior designer and my sister is a fashion designer. They have had a lot to do with why I’m so passionately dedicated to fashion and design and crafty goodness. Following my schooling in fashion styling, interior space planning and home staging, I am joyfully juggling wardrobe therapy/styling, staging and organizing homes and people. I’ve styled everyone from on-the-go moms to actresses to business executives, and as a member of POC (Professional Organizers in Canada) I love whipping messy, claustrophobic closets into gorgeous, tidy spaces in no time flat. I’m a virgo – the organizing thing is inherent. I can’t help it.

Not a Winner

Well,  I didn’t win the Gemini award for Best Host this year….Brian Baeumler from HGTV’s Disaster DIY did, and I’m so glad he did! I got to meet him at the Gemini’s, and he is super deluxe nice. He was blown away by his win – like blown away – floored really. Couldn’t believe it. And sooooo grateful. It was really cool. I’m really glad I got to meet him, and congratulate him on his win. In fact, I met him prior to the awards starting, and told him that I thought tonight was ‘his turn to win’. So I called it Brian! You rock. I met his wife too – gorgeous – by the way, and Brian told me she’s a huge fan of “She’s Crafty”!

I also got to meet the boys from W Network’s Style by Jury – David Clemmer/Stylist and Bruce Turner/Host (Bruce was also nominated that night). Too fun!

I was thrilled to wear a gorgeous dress (blouse & skirt, really) by Chloe Angus, and fantastic glam jewellery by Elsa Corsi. Check them out! Thanks gals!!

Heels, Needles & Macrame

“She’s Crafty” is about to start airing in France in October, and they’ve retitled it “Heels, Needles & Macrame”.  LOL. I’m not quite sure where the macrame came from because there isn’t a sniff of macrame on the show, but I wonder if it’s because I said “This is not your mothers macrame”.
