Last night brought out 1,000 amazing, creative women at Toronto's Mille Femmes event as part of Luminato. It was so great to see so many people I knew included in part of the exhibit. Sunday is the last day for you to pop by the old BCE place to see who you know.

Don't Miss This Event: Toronto's Mille Femmes


1,000 of Toronto's most creative women were invited to participate in French photographer Pierre Maraval's exhibit Toronto's Mille Femmes. 

I've been anticipating this event ever since my shoot with him back in March, slowly biting back my nails wondering: "Will I look like a total dork in the photo?" "Will he use the last one of me laughing?" Ooh the agony...

Tomorrow I am heading to Allen Lambert Galleria, Brookfield Place, 161-181 Bay Street, Toronto (the old BCE Place) to check it out with my wonderful protege.

It's only here till Sunday, June 15th - so please take a look. You never know who you might see.

If you look closely at the montage above you can see me!
