Hogger & Co. Style Profile: Holly 

Holly and I have been friends since our days working at Guru Animation Studio, where one of the shows we worked on was The Backyardigans, and more recently, Justin Time.

I've always admired Holly's sense of style and knack for vintage shopping!

It was so nice to catch up with her in Toronto; she was a bundle of giggles during her Style Profile shoot on Queen St. West, one of my favorite neighborhoods!

Meet Holly and check her out on Twitter!

If you'd like to be in the next round of Style Profiles, send me an email!

 

 8 years, on and off, since I moved from my hometown of Stratford, ON in 2002 to attend University, and have been here ever since...minus a brief two year adventure on Canada's west coast!

 

Toronto's style is a mixed bag, and can definitely be hit or miss. On a good day, it can be classic, creative, and even gorgeous! On a bad day, it can be dirty, sleepy, and pretty lackluster.

 

The variety of neighbourhoods, tree-lined streets, people watching, endless outdoor festivals, & the best vintage shopping.

Currently, I'm an Event Coordinator at Speakers' Spotlight. I've been dreaming of opening a Bed & Breakfast, and plan on making it happen sometime in the next 10 years.

That's easy - my favourite city: San Francisco!

No alarm clocks, a big brunch with lots of coffee, some lounging outside in the sun with friends or family, and watching Dexter on Showtime, of course!

One of my Dad's favourite sayings is, "Keep it simple, stupid." I think this describes my personal style, you know...less is more.

Thanks for doing the Style Profile for Nashua Soup Kitchen Holly! Was so fun hanging out in Toronto and of course, your generous donation was much appreciated at NSK! xo
