Hello Darlings,

Every morning, I love waking up to the aroma of freshly brewed coffee! With a brisk shower and a quick cup of coffee, a tiresome morning quickly can turn into a joyful start. As a Starbucks drinker both at home and on the go, I was more than delighted when Starbucks offered home delivery every morning for one week! I am feeling a little spoiled but nonetheless grateful for such a sweet gesture!

So, I would like to share with two of you darlings a Starbucks gift card for $25 in hopes of adding a little caffeine kick-start to make your mornings a little brighter!

FOR A CHANCE TO WIN:

Please, leave a comment telling me which Starbucks location you go to most?

Don't forget to mention the city!

Yesterday’s article was part 1 of my interview with popular Toronto Blue Jays baseball player JP Arencibia where he talked about his life and personal style. We had such a fun time making the interview since all the while we were also shopping and styling together in the menswear section on the upper level at the main French Connection store in Toronto. So thanks JP for also opening up about his thoughts and preferences on the topic of women and their style.

Hello Darlings,

Last Tuesday afternoon, I spent a few hours getting to know the hunky Toronto Blue Jays star baseball player, JP Arencibia. The twenty-six year old Miami native — drafted in 2007 — became the Blue Jays single season leader in home runs by a catcher in 2011. JP also recently earned the Major League Baseball Player of the Week award for the period May 14th – 20th, 2012. Despite his impressive skills, what caught my eye was his personal style. In this girls view, JP is one of the best dressed and groomed players in professional sports in Toronto.

I invited JP to come shopping with me at French Connection’s flagship Bloor Street store, and to discuss his personal style, life and of course women! In person, JP is a sweetheart who adores his super cute French Bulldog named Yogi, and enjoys spending a lot of time with his family. All in all, he is one amazing guy!

Here’s what JP Arencibia had to say when we discussed his life and in particular his personal style:

Hello Darlings,

This weekend are the MuchMusic Video Awards 2012 and Toronto is buzzing with excitement! For me, this week has been a blur but in the best way possible and the best is yet to come. So many parties, so little time... and I am running out of cocktail dresses and my feet are in a permanent state of pain from heels. My head is spinning with excitement!

After an early wake-up, a venti Americano and a sleepy taxi ride, I arrived at the Red Bull headquarters on Queen West for the Universal Music MMVA VIP Gift Lounge. As a guest of Fiji Water, I was invited to pick up a number of goodies and enjoy the beautiful weather on their rooftop patio with a BBQ and DJ.
