FINAL TEASER VIDEOS

Here are the LAST teaser videos leading up to the release of my EP, "RISK IT."
AVAILABLE NOW on iTunes! It was released on Friday, April 8!

Teaser 5: On Your Own
Jacket: Zara
Top/Bottoms: Artizia
Shoes: Sam Edelman Zoyla boots

Teaser 6: Risk It [Finale]
Compilation of ALL the teasers and ending with Risk It concept starting at 0:27 to end.
Dress: Vintage Tadashi
Shoes: Giuseppe Zanotti Glitter booties

Just HAD to have these Giuseppe Zanotti Design glitter booties! Everyone said they run true to size or 1/2 smaller, but I actually had to size down 'cause they seemed too long/roomy for me. I feel so lucky to have snagged a pair for over 50% off at Neiman Marcus.

I don't normally wear flat(ter) shoes/boots either so these are definitely an instant favourite of mine. There's only a glimpse of them at the end of my "Teaser 6: Risk It [Finale]" video though, where I stomp on the guitar pedal. Here are the sparkling beauties, look how they shine for you.

TEASER VIDEOS [PART 2]

Holding hands and printed hearts.
Roses and balloons.

Here are two more teaser videos leading up to the release of my EP, "RISK IT." Available next Friday, April 8, 2011! These also feature the accapella (just vocals) versions of my songs. I'm sharing 2 more teasers next week! Feel free to check out my Youtube or Vimeo for concept details of each video.

Teaser 3: Learn To Love
Jacket: Muubaa
Dress: Reko

Teaser 4: Fakin' Me Out
Top: Free People
Shoes: Giuseppe Zanotti "Tartar" wedges

Absolutely LOVE these Giuseppe Zanotti Design "Tartar" wedges! They're wild and very comfortable! There's only a glimpse of them at the end of my Teaser 4 video though, where I drop the roses and step on the balloon... hehe. Here's a full image in all their leopard fur glory!

TEASER VIDEOS

Leather and glitter.
Floral and fire.

Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell "Lita"

Teaser 2: Friday Night Confessions
Named my blog after this song!

FANTASTIC FOUR

Multi Glitter, Black Glitter, Taupe Suede, Black Calf Leather.
Jeffrey Campbell

Yes... went a little overboard.
Just couldn't resist the "Lita."

WWW.CHESCA.CA

Been busy building my music website.
Just launched it today!
WWW.CHESCA.CA
Check it out - if you'd like to learn a little more about my music.

So much to do in preparation of my EP release.
Most importantly, shoot an album cover.

Aiming to have my songs available on iTunes, etc...
by late April or early May.

Can you believe it's February already?
My goodness, time flies.

CROCO PATENT ZIP

Minimarket Croco Patent Zipper Wedge

Finally mine.
Been wanting these lovelies for far too long.

Current favourites.
Haven't stopped wearing them ever since they arrived earlier this month.
Perfect for all the rain and predicting snow fall.

Bought from the lovely Stylepaste boutique
all the way in Denmark. (Appears to be sold out now.)

Also snagged the popular, lusted over, sleek leather version at Urban Outfitters for a very generous deal.
Nearly 60% off with the additional Take10 promo code. (Expires 2/1)
Grab a pair before they're gone!

EXPLOSIONS IN THE SKY

Dress: Vintage, Make Up: Estée Lauder

Red lips. Gold leather.

Welcome to two thousand and eleven!
So much to be thankful for and so much to look forward to!

My hopes for this year is to travel more...
reunite with the loves of my life living lights years away.
This means cut down on shoe shopping and save up for airfares.
Bittersweet.

Hope you're all enjoying the New Year so far!
Wishing you good health, great success and
all the love and happiness in the world!

Cheers!

'Bullet Proof' Music Video: Photo Diary

The making of 'Bulletproof' - featuring the official track
and a collection of images taken during the production of this song.



BULLETPROOF

hey-e-yay-e-yay!

take a shot, take a shot... get a good aim - right for my unarmed heart
better reload quick, before i dart and get a full head start

there’s nothing you can do
i am bulletproof
hey-e-yay-e-yay!

give it up, give it up... whatever you’ve got - just isn’t good enough
better give into defeat, before you've used up what's left of all your luck

back to back, walk the line, ten paces apart
turn and raise our guns... go down, hit the ground

----------------------------------------------------
Most of you may not know that I am a songwriter... ;)
I just finished recording a six-song EP with an amazing producer and crew.
I'm aiming to release it around late February/March of 2011.

'Bulletproof' is the heaviest track on the album. Not all are modern rock, I recorded a little bit of everything.
This song is about being immune to all things negative... be it words, actions, opinions or outlooks.
No matter what or how much is fired at you, nothing sinks in.
And through it all... you're still the one left standing. Ha!

Thanks for listening!

FESTIVE

Model: Lydia Hearst. Photo by: Elias Wessel, Vixen Magazine.

This photo takes my breath away. Her hair is outstanding.
There's a sort of eerie sadness to her expression.
What a beauty. Oh the colours.



This is one of the very first self portrait photos I've ever shot... years ago.
Felt like sharing it cause the colours are fun... much like the holiday season.

Hope everyone's enjoying their holidays thus far!
I haven't even started on my Christmas shopping yet.
Uh oh.

SWING LIFE AWAY

Dress: H&M, Belt: Bebe, Hat: Vintage, Locket: Gift

"Am I still your charm, or am I just bad luck?
Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost?"
- Rise Against

These pictures were taken a while back. Felt like sharing them cause the colours
remind me of Thanksgiving for some reason. Perhaps it's the warm tones.

Hope it was Turkey stuff-alicious for those of you who celebrate Thanksgiving!

DISCOTASTIC

Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell

Multi glitter "Lita" arrived today...
they are incredible!

When I sent this photo to
one of my favourite bloggers
she described them as "Discotastic."

They truly are an explosion of fun.
Cannot wait to rock out onstage in these.

HALLOWEEKEND

Hope all of you are having a sugar high, spooky Halloweekend!
