Dirty thirty

So I survived my Dirty Thirty, but I’m still recovering 4 days later!
First thing checked off my SUMMER OF FUN list =  ✔ skydiving!
Yes, I actually did it! And it was the most exhilarating feeling! I recommend Parachutisme Adrenaline (located in St-Jerome, QC) to any first-time jumpers. I will definitely go back again!


Next thing to check off my list = ✔ partying it up for my 30th; on Grand Prix weekend in Montreal. We partied at Ballroom with VIP service. I highly recommend them for any night you want to party! The night was epic. Lots of fun, lots of booze, lots of friends = happiness! I wouldn’t have changed a thing! Ok well... maybe the rainy-cold weather... oh and.. the 40 minute walk at the end of the night to find a cab! Apart from that; it was the perfect evening!



Thanks friends for the balloons, cupcakes & flowers at work, the wonderful BBQ with friends, & the night of partying! It was a special day xo I've got a GOOD feeling about my thirties when i'm surrounded by so many good friends and family xo

A/C installation date !

So i have a car washing, A/C installing, possible-dinner DATE Friday night. Very exciting. Well, the A/C installation part of it anyway! For those not aware... Montreal's been in a serious heat wave all week and my apartment is about 98 degrees (WITHOUT humidity) at the moment. I escaped to sleep at my parents house last night because melting away is NOT a sexy thing.

And yes, i might be using this guy just a LITTLE. But, i already know he's nice, plus we've dated in the past, and IF he can get that A/C to work i will be ELATED! Who knows, if the A/C breeze blows in the right direction, he might even get some! ;)

(He doesn't know this, but that's alright. Let's let him sweat it out. Literally.) hehe

Girl on Girl

I was inspired to write this, from my new favorite show: Downtown Girls (MTV) Episode 3 baby! Watch it!

I think all girls in the dating scene get so fed up at times that we think maybe we should be giving a chance to our same sex partners : the girls.

Girl on girl is a very peculiar subject. Most know that i have quite vast knowledge of this subject since i have lived with 4 lesbians (2 couples) in a small apartment in the city, 2 yrs ago. One bathroom, one kitchen, 5 girls. You get to know your roomates very well. I love these girls like sisters (well actually one of them is my sister) and still hangout with most of them regularly.

The Drought

So, i'm sitting here, watching the Olympics, wondering what dating stories I haven't told you all! It's February in Montreal, and the dating scene is slow right now...
ok, honestly, it's dead.
It seems like every guy i meet, or in effect tonight, every guy i talk to, i'm all of a sudden interested in!
I mean tonight, I was actually flirting with the TD Financial Advisor who called me from Markham Ontario to review my GIC investments! He sounded cute i swear! And he was smart — about RRSPs! ;)
And then there was the guy the other night. I was at my friends house, watching the hockey game, and a  male friend of theirs came over. All of a sudden i'm totally checking him out! And honestly, we probably have nada in common, apart from our love for hockey! LOL i'm simply a disaster!

I'm constantly having fantasies about my athletic therapist — who is HOT and funny, but unfortunately engaged... I talk about HIM all the time on my Twitter feed ;)

It seems like any guy who comes along and talks to me, i'm drooling over! What happened to cool, sexy Roxy being selective? ;)
I'll be the first to admit, I am in desperate need for Spring to arrive! And for me to meet some eligible bachelors who aren't just the mailman!

let it snow let it snow let it snow!


Maybe last night's mini-snow-storm will brighten the spirits of some of us Montrealers who are suffering from the winter blues... or maybe it'll just cause more traffic on Decarie.

My sexy lingerie designer



Ok, so i'll let Roxy fans on on a little secret. Roxy loves lingerie. LOVE LOVE LOVES it. It makes me feel sexy everyday. And a little secret: I usually color co-ordinate my undies with my top that i'm wearing. Every day. That's how many undies i have!!! ;) lol.
And, it just so HAPPENS, that one of my great friends is an amazing lingerie designer. She works for Blush Lingerie. An up and coming lingerie brand that sells amazing quality lingerie for the price. I have soooo many bras, undies, corsets from her. Too many to wear actually. But i always find room in my underwear armoir (yes. armoir.) when a new season begins.
Spring 2010 is in full bloom. Check out their website www.blushlingerie.com It's HOT!



So, I sat down with my talented friend to ask her a few questions about being a lingerie designer:

[ROXY] What first drew you to fashion design? specifically to lingerie?
[BLUSH DESIGNER] I’ve always been into fashion: the clothes, shopping, dressing people up… but I always thought becoming a fashion designer was a pipe dream. Only after university (graduated in a different field) did I really start to evaluate what I wanted to do in life. I decided that fashion was really something that would make me happy and I was the only one who can make it happen. I didn’t want to invest more years in school, but then I quickly realized what’s 3 years compared to the rest of my life? It was the best decision I’ve ever made.

Same as clothes, lingerie was always something that I loved. I always found that pretty lingerie can just brighten up your day and make you feel sexy! It starts from the “inside”! I have always loved matching bra/panties sets, and I love matching them to what I’m wearing on the outside. During fashion school, we had a few opportunities to work on projects outside of women’s daywear. I always chose lingerie. I knew that it was something I wanted to go into, I just didn’t think I was going to straight out of school!

[ROXY] How do u inspire yourself? Victoria's Secret catalogs? ;)
[BD] I love flipping through magazines, watching runway shows, going shopping. I find inspiration in art and clothing. I love to travel, see what’s out there and what’s different.

[ROXY] Do you have any special collections? If so, how do u name them?
[BD] All my collections are special, lol! There are always a few groups in the collection that I’m in love with and hope everyone would love just as much. We have many groups within a collection and they all have sexy flirty names. For Spring/Summer 2010, we have names like: Swept Away, Kiss & Tell, My Little Secret, Guilty Pleasures…

[ROXY] Ooo..sexy! Speaking of, Valentine's day is next week! What do u suggest us single girls buy for our sexy dates? Oh. And let's not forget the wifies, what would you suggest they buy to impress their hubbies? To rekindle those fires!! One corset at a time!
[BD] I would tell the single girls to buy a cute/sexy set, whatever makes them feel more feminine, flirty and bold. Have fun with it! I would also suggest wearing a garter belt under with your sheer stockings. A hint of the garter will drive the guy mad!!
For the wives and girlfriends, buy something that you normally wouldn’t wear…babydolls, corsets, teddys… or even a bra/panty set in lace if you’re usually a cotton kinda gal. Pick a fun color (one that flatters you or that he likes you in), accentuate your best features (be it top or bottom, or both)! Most importantly, be confident in showing your sexy self!


[ROXY] I'm sold! So, where can we buy ur fabulous designs? and how much do they go for?
[BD] Our bras are generally $34-36, panties $18-24, babydolls/chemises/corsets $56-68. You can find Blush at lingerie boutiques, Simons, The Bay and online stores. All the info’s on our website: blushlingerie.com

[ROXY] wow that's amazing pricing! I've gotta to get to the stores! Nothing better than walking around knowing how sexy you look under your clothes! Makes a girl feel GREAT! One question I have to ask; do guys act differently on dates when they find out your occupation? Do you strategically place it in conversation?
[BD] LOL, I think guys like hearing it. They love the idea that I play with panties all day! It’s definitely one of those occupations you don’t mind telling people :) I don’t really brag about it or bring it up in conversation unless someone asks me. Maybe it’s because I’m still a little shocked that I am a lingerie designer!

[ROXY] Have you ever dated a guy who WASN'T into lingerie? that would be such a waste!
[BD] Yes I did. Let’s just say he was being quite disrespectful about it. It lasted one date.


[ROXY] Speaking of dating, have u got any crazy dating stories to share with our readers?!
[BD] I met this guy online, we had great conversations about our jobs, common interests, hockey…He had a great sense of humor, didn’t mind making fun of himself. He asked me out for drinks on a Friday night. We decide to go separately and meet at the bar. First drink in, I can already tell he wanted out of there. He kept looking at his phone, hoping that his friend would bail him out. I decided it was Friday and I deserved a least a second martini! As the waitress came with my second, he conveniently got up to go to the bathroom so I would have to pay for it. He came back, I quickly finished my drink and left.

Have you got any questions of your own for the sexy designer? Email me at hello@roxysrendezvous.com !
Here are a few magazines she's been featured in! WOW i'm jealous xo

Are YOU ready...for Halloween?

So chicas, what are YOU wearing for Halloween this year?
I'm going to an awesome Halloween party this year. I never usually get into the whole Halloween/dressing-up thing... (I guess it's the British in me:Halloween is hardly even celebrated in the UK) So, i splurged and spend ±70$ on a costume. And guess what i am? Yes, you guessed it! A vampire!

As most of you chicas know, Twilight is like THE best vampire series on the planet. At any age, you will get completely engrossed in these stories (P.S. as much as i love the movies, they don't give the books justice at all!). So if you're reading this and HAVEN'T read the series , you need to get up, call a friend who has the first book (i know you all know at least ONE person who owns the book!), and drive over to her place immediately. Do not go back onto your computer UNTIL you've read 20pages of the first book. I promise you'll be hooked.

So, now back to my costume. I bought it at Montreal's best sex store: Seduction (it's the picture below, minus the red boots—i'll have to wear my black ones). My friend and i had a blast trying on about 20 different costumes each. Some were only bedroom appropriate, aka a little TOO sexy! God my friend is HOT!! (xo) But finally i found my sexy, but not too raunchy, Halloween costume for my party!! What do you think?

I just hope with this really cold temperature we've been having the last few weeks, that i don't completely freeze my ass off getting to this party! LOL

So, don't hold back, tell me: what are YOU wearing for Halloween?!
