WeSC hearts Montreal


Saw this as I was walking home today and couldn't help share with you my excitement (and my unskilled photography). It seems that the Swedish streetwear brand will have a flagship store on the corner of Ste-Catherine and Bishop street. Rumor has it that owners from a pretty well known streetwear store a few blocks down are a part of this new endeavor..all to be determined in time. Hmm..wonder if they can have some hot swedish boys work there for my viewing pleasure :)

My Two MMVA Performing Highlights

MTV Music Video Awards were this past Sunday. It was a decent show where Lady Gaga was her man persona "Joe Calderone" all evening and ridiculous people besides Foo Fighters won. Half the world doesn't know who Tyler the Creator is and I really doubt Katy Perry has more talent than Adele. Alas, I need to manage my stress so I will stop my rant!

Although Kanye and Jay-Z performed their first single off their collaboration album "Throne", I give credit to the wifey of one part of the duo. Beyonce's performance was great, it was very Motown! I loved especially her little tummy rub at the end announcing her pregnancy and the proud papa in the audience jumped in glee (you can see it at the end of the video below). For my second fave, well no shock to anyone, it was Adele! She brought a moment of serenity in all the color chaos of the show.

Incase X Andy Warhol: Part Deux



Speaking of Andy Warhol...Incase, founded in 1997 to protect the technology we hold close to us, is releasing a second collection inspired by the iconic artist. This collection will showcase various types of media art that Warhol used such as silkscreening (Elvis) and film (Empire).

The collection is already available on the Incase's website.

Made Me X Stussy



To celebrate their upcoming collaboration, Made Me and Stussy introduce you to a rocker chick with plenty of attitude "Miss Poly Styrofoam". This digital project is to launch the 12 piece collection inspired by the early punk look of the 80s featuring a leather moto jacket, denim jacket, tees, and much more.

Psquared and the City: Osheaga

Ok, I am a little late on this post but it is due to life/work when you come back from vacation. Reality just smacks you in the face! I was happy that I got to be a part of Osheaga again this year even if it was just for a little bit. I only got to attend the Sunday festivities but it was well worth missing the two others days since I was on a girl-cation at the Jersey Shore...(post about our vacation will soon follow).

Osheaga was amazing. I got to see mixture of old bands (Cypress Hill, The Flaming Lips) with new favorites (City and Color, Beirut). My favorites of the day were The Sounds, Cypress Hill and Shad. Although I love Beirut, they had so much sound difficulty that a large venue for them is not enjoyable.

Beirut (backstage)...I Mcoeur them even when sound issues get in the way!


Shad... you add to my Canadian Hip Hop love

What I adore about Osheaga is the weird things that can happen...such as Shad and Dallas (lead singer from City and Color) performing a duo together, The Flaming Lips married a young couple from Calgary during their encore and Cypress Hill smoked the biggest joint I have ever seen.

Osheaga, I cant wait to be with you next year....
