Breaking Hearts and Smashing Balls

/0 Comments/in /by

Breaking hearts and smashing balls…Well, apparently, I am good at first but cant hit a single ball!..Blame it on growing up in Russia where this sport is far from being popular.
My knowledge of baseball consists of the following:

  • Blue Jays are cool and they won the Atlantic division this season (I spent 11 years in Toronto!)
  • Everyone loves Jose Bautista and he flipped the bat and it went viral…
  • And that Kansas Royals won the finals this year

So, congrats, champs! Here is my take on baseball captured by Samuel.Black in California.

Freshly Squeezed

Freshly squeezed…that is both myself and an OJ in my hand. Indian summer in LA in October is no joke. When its over 100F and you are sweating in the city, freshly squeezed juice is what the doctor ordered!

I have been a fan of Zac Posen for a long time. In February, I was lucky to attend his show when he celebrated women of color and Naomi Campbell slayed down the runway surprising everyone in the finale. This season, I could not wait to watch the show again. The collection was breathtakingly beautiful and after the show i got to go backstage where the designer was talking about the inspiration and his plans for the future. I got to meet Zac Posen as well and let me tell you, he is a sweetheart!

On one of the days during New York Fashion Week, I decided to wear a crazy peacock print dress from Spring Summer 2016 collection by one of my favorite Canadian designers, Hilary MacMillan. It was so much fun to wear such a bold dress! As i was coming out of the DKNY show at the World Trade Centre a see of streetstyle photographers surrounded me.

I am definitely not a morning person but catching those first rays of sunshine is such a blessing. While on a morning stroll for a coffee with Jono Parker who was visiting New York all the way from New Zealand, we decided to take advantage of beautiful light and raw Williamsburg backgrounds.
No make up, no hair, no planning. Coffee and avo toast never tasted better.

Are you an NBA fan like me? Well, in this case you will appreciate this little series.
My teams are Raptors (East Coast, repping Toronto) and Lakers (West Coast favs). Recently, I went to see them play against each other in ON, California for a pre-season game. Raps ate Lakers alive winning 105-97…
Inspired, I went to ‘play’ hoops in nothing but Sonic’s Gary Payton’s #20 jersey. Captured by Samuel.Black

During Miami Swim Week, I teamed up with Samuel.Black and Mia Marcelle Swimwear for a quick shoot. Swim week is a whirlwind, running around South Beach in extreme heat and humidity from castings to fittings to shows. So, it was super refreshing to have a glass of Rosé and have fun on the beach.

Who said you have to wear a blazer with a top underneath? This oversized leather jacket works perfectly on a naked body with ripped jeans and a bit of attitude 😉

Hello world!

/2 Comments/in /by

Hi, world!

This is my very first post.

I am a model, blogger and an event and wedding planner born in Russia, raised in Canada and currently living in Los Angeles, California. My life is crazy and sometimes when I look at it from the side I am amazed how many hats I wear on a daily basis, how many things I do and crazy stories I have to tell every day.

I love to explore and do crazy things; I love adrenaline and be challenged and throw myself in unusual situations; I love being gutsy and bold.

If you never tried or asked, the answer will always be ‘no’! What’s the worst case scenario?..

As wild as I can get, I am also a very soulful person who loves to unplug, connect with nature, listen to good music, and cook low key dinner with friends and cuddle on the couch watching a stupid romantic comedy.

This blog is an extension of my Instagram account @Ksenia.Mz. I’ll be sharing my modeling adventures, inspirations behind events I get to design and coordinate, real weddings I get to plan, crazy and funny stories I experience on a daily basis in the world of fashion, my street style looks, travels, advice and so much more.

P.S. Special thanks to everyone who supported me throughout the years, to old and new friends and to those who encouraged me to start the blog. Here we go…
