Birthday Wishlist

With my birthday coming up next week, it seems like a good time to put together a list to inspire and point my loved ones in the right direction.

1. Clothes: ever since seeing Danielle Bernstein's custom leather jacket, I have been dreaming of having my own Namesake leather jacket.  I just love how customizable they are!

2. Beauty: I have been loving Too Faced products lately. The colors are rich, yet still subtle. I especially love this eye shadow palette, this contour kit, and the shimmer in this blush is to die for!

3. Accessories: I have a recently developed love for Pandora. My fiancé gave me my charm bracelet for my birthday when we first started dating, and he has been adding charms to it ever since. But these two silver entwined rings have caught my eye this year.

4. Tech: I have never been one for taking pictures and carrying around a camera. The whole going out to get them developed and printed always turned me off. But these mini instant cameras are so portable that they might just turn me into a budding wannabe photographer.

Summer Dreaming

Though I may look better in cool winter tones, I am totally a summer person!

I long for hot sunny days, shorts, breezy tanks, and sun-kissed skin. 

So let's celebrate winter thawing!

Below you will find a compilation of my favourite (and, hopefully, future) summer pieces from Lulus'. I love the bold prints, flowing silhouettes, and the relax aesthetic that Lulu's pieces all seems to have.  

What part of summer are you most excited for?

Ringing In 2017

Happy New Years!

It's time for the stereotypical New Years Resolution post :) 

I've never been one for resolutions. I don't really like the stigma of being unhappy with your life and wanting to drastically change it. But I figure some healthy goals won't be too bad, right?

Here are my resolutions for 2017! 

1. Always strive to see the bright side of a situation.

2. Pick up a couple new hobbies.

3. Make more time for my fiancé.

4. Fuel my body with more produce.

5. Get more exercise, whether it's going to the gym or just going for a walk.

What is your New Years resolution?

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.
