  • COLOUR STORY: pink + orange

    COLOUR STORY: pink + orange

    Oh man, it’s been awhile since I’ve done a colour story. I couldn’t help myself because there’s just something so summery about pink and orange together. Such a bold and fresh combo that can look both cheerful or stylish depending on the hues. Doesn’t it just make you happy looking at it? main image /…

  • COLOUR STORY: pinks + greens

    COLOUR STORY: pinks + greens

    So I was on Pinterest the other day (shocking!) looking through my colour board and noticed a theme. It wasn’t obvious at first but I kept seeing pops of pink & green colour combo. Call me a trend spotter or just a pink & green lover but you can’t deny that these guys look great together…

  • {STYLE: it’s going to be a kimono kind of season}

    So even though the weather hasn’t totally caught up, the fashion world is definitely in spring/summer mode. It’s kinda nice to walk through the mall and see all the seasonal fashion, even if we’re not quite ready just yet here in Toronto. What’s up with that Mother Nature? Cruel punishment I say. But on a…

  • {PAPER PARTY: art for your walls + minted giveaway}

    Another day older, another giveaway for you peeps. By now I’m sure you’ve heard of minted and their beautiful invitations, paper goods and party decor? They are one of my favourites for sure.

I’ll be there today checking out all the new spring vendors as well as some old favourites. If you’ve never been to the show before, brace yourself because…

  • {INSPIRING CHANGE: shopping for International Women’s Day}

    Tomorrow is International Women’s Day and the theme is Inspiring Change. Are you a woman and are you planning on doing something tomorrow to inspire change? I know for me anyway, sometimes these events can be a bit overwhelming. You get those thoughts “I’m just one woman, what can I really do?”. This blog isn’t…

  • {BEAUTY TREND: Fab orange lips}

    How about starting your week off with a little shopping expedition? I’ve been so into this strappy back bra look. They just look so interesting, don’t you think?

    Love it or hate it, it’s that time to wear your heart on your sleeve. Now I’ve been single longer than I would ever admit publicly so for the record this message of love is brought to you by a party of one. I think we should take Valentine’s Day away from the lovers and…

  • {STYLE: gaga for ombre tights}

    What’s your favourite season for fashion? I bet lots of people love easy breezy summer and showing off their tans but I’ll admit, I kinda like to cover up. Not because I’m shy but because I really like wearing tights & leggings. They can be such a fashion statement! They are also a great way…

  • {WISH LIST: my holiday list}

    I may be a little late on the wish list train but I thought I would share anyway. The truth is that gift giving isn’t really a big part of my holiday. We (friends & family) have kinda collectively agreed to just enjoy the social events and not worry about gifts. BUT with that being…
