Join me on a fashion adventure


I’ve worked in fashion for over 25 years, covering every facet of the industry and appearing as an expert on TV, radio, and magazines. My work as a stylist brought me to Paris in 2008, and I have been obsessed with this beautiful city ever since. My first visit to a fashion museum changed my life. Seeing the most incredible fashion up close and presented with such reverence fanned the flames of my obsession even more. I now write about haute couture for Elle Canada and the odd luxury magazine, focusing on the small ateliers and workshops that are the unsung heroes of Parisian fashion.

I am still utterly obsessed with Paris and constantly dive down rabbit holes to discover new and untapped opportunities for my guests. As a fashion expert, I am excited about the intersections between fashion and other disciplines like art, architecture, design, photography, etc.. I have plenty of options to offer beyond fashion.

If group travel isn’t for you or you have limited time, consider one of my day trips or let me build you a custom itinerary you can do independently. You’ll still get all the tips and tricks plus someone to ask all your questions to. Use the form below to email me any questions, schedule a phone call or a Zoom, or to send your compliments! See you in Paris!
