Season Favourites | Winter 2016

Cold Weather Accessories (Beanie: similar | Scarf: similar) - Being a bit of a knitwear nut, I cannot resist knit beanies and scarves. I bought my favourite Winter scarf from H&M last season; I wear it practically every day. 

Calvin Klein Modern Logo Sweatpants - I recently bought this sweats and I am already in love! They are warm, lightweight, and super comfy. And they are quite flattering as well (you know, considering they are sweatpants).

Suede Ghillie Heels - I had been looking for the perfect pair of ghillie heels for months, when I found this nude suede pair by Christian Siriano. They are super comfy, very cute, and I cannot wait to style them for warmer weather.

Dolce & Gabbana Glasses (Similar) - OK, so this one is less of a choice and more of a coincidentally stylish necessity. While picking out my frames, I noticed that a popular trend in eyewear is black, rubber frames. So comfortable! 

OPI Nail Envy - I love this nail strengthener! I have been using it constantly for nearly 3 weeks now, and it is one of my all-time favourite products. While I use the original formula, OPI has formulas for dry & brittle nails, soft & thin nails, peeling nails, and even a matte finish formula. Stay tuned for a full review.

Dove Dry Shampoo - I have tried many different dry shampoos, and I always find myself coming back to this one from Dove. The smell is fresh and slightly fruity, it blends easily, and does not result in really sticky hair.

Merry Christmas dears! Xx.

Winter Wear | Chicwish

Happy first day of Winter! In order to better embrace this cold, yet beautiful season, I have put together a collection of my favourite cold weather pieces from Chicwish.
All items from chicwish.com

I love how all of their pieces take a classic wardrobe staple and put a unique spin on it. I love the contrast piping on this skirt and this sweater. And the lace-up detail on this skirt and this sweater is flirtatious and tasteful.

Stay warm Xx.

Colour of the Season



Colour: Bogota Blackberry


I've never been one for constantly having my nails done. But I simply cannot resist the right color.
This shimmery burgundy polish from OPI is gorgeous. It looks so festive and Christmas-y.
OPI has always been a go-to for jewel tone polishes for me, and this polish does not disappoint.

How do you show your festive side?
Xx.

Catch Up | Winter 2016

 Hey guys,
So today I realized that I have never really given you a little peek into my life. There's a first time for everything right?
Here's a look at what I got up to this summer.

In May, I graduated from university. I went to Trinity Western University here in BC, and finished with a Bachelor of Arts in Media and Communications.




Not long after I graduated, my boyfriend proposed. I won't go into the full story. 
But he took me to Vancouver Island under the guise of a friend's birthday. That night, he popped the question on the beach under a grape arbor lit up with twinkly lights. 



After a month of milestones, the rest of my summer was gloriously relaxing (as all summers should be). Camping, beach days, visiting with friends, and trying hard to not think about when September (aka real life) will come around.

What did all of you get up to this summer? Leave your best memory of this summer in the comments below! Xx.

OOTD | Winter Wonderland





Parka Garage Clothing (Similar) | Sweater H&M | Scarf H&M | Boots Urban Planet
 
I love bundling up for winter weather. BC is experiencing true Winter Wonderland-esque weather this week so I finally got to break out my parka. I got this coat from Garage Clothing last winter and it is the comfiest thing I own! I highly recommend everyone gets a parka designed for -10 degree weather.
And no winter outfit is complete without an oversize scarf and some Sherpa-lined boots.
 
Stay cozy Xx.

Take The Stress Out Of Laundry Day

I don't know how many sweaters, jumpsuits, and trousers I have ruined because I gave up trying to read the washing instructions. Until recently, laundry day was a stressful day full of danger games and more guesswork than I care to admit. And I'm here to tell you that guessing the wash instructions never turns out in your favour.


Enter Ghergich & Co.


I have written a couple of posts about Ghergich & Co over the past couple of years.
(Caring For Different Fabrics & Ironing Alternatives)
So when they contacted me about this infograph collaboration with PartSelect.com, I could not resist spreading the knowledge.


Enjoy Xx.

For the Home | White and Gold

Lately, I've been wanting to redecorate. Office spaces, bedrooms, living spaces in general.

I've really been liking clean, simple pieces. Clean lines, soft textures, and chic colours. When you decorate a space, be sure to include a couple unique pieces, like this gold pineapple statue, and these gold feather wall pieces.
