If updating the ol' wardrobe for Fall is one of my favourite things to do, then snagging amazing pieces for less has got to be a close second... hey, it never hurts to have extra coffee money leftover after a shopping trip, amiright ladies? If you're looking for a more affordable way to bulk up that closet of yours, shopping consignment is always a good way to go. One of my favourite online destinations for snagging preloved pieces in great condition is hands down The RealReal; I've said it before and I'll say it again— that site is legit. So keep that in the back of your mind while we talk ..read more

Hey friends! Fall is fully upon us, which means three very exciting things— 1) everything is now pumpkin flavoured, 2) scary movies are being released en masse, and most importantly, 3) Fall clothing is all around us- glorious, cozy fall clothing.

That's why I'm super excited about today's post, which has kindly been brought to you by Ardene and ShopStyle. It's chock-full of amazing clothing, footwear and accessories that you can easily shop to cozy-up your closet fo ..read more

As a total beauty junkie, I'm all about trying different products/treatments in the quest for better skin... so it should come as no surprise that micro-needling was high on my list of treatments to incorporate into my routine. After all, so many people in my personal life swear by it for improving skin texture, and even perfectly-complexioned celebs are all about it, too (like Meghan Markle!). So off I went to Dermalounge Medi Spa (11523 100 Avenue)— who I whole-heartedly trust with my face— to get eDermastamped. Now WTF am I talking about, you ask? Allow me to elaborate. WHAT IS MICRO-N ..read more

Not to name names, but someone's been a little MIA around here lately... To be fully honest with you guys, life just keeps getting in the way of updating this space, and since we're all Instagram friends, most of our interactions happen there anyway, but still, it's important to say hi here periodically, too. I don't want us to fully lose the connection we have on this platform, but because I'm in the process of building two new businesses (more on that later) on top of running my Instagram account, just be forewarned that things will be a little quiet on here in general. I'm thinking one p ..read more

Happy Monday, friends! Hope you guys had an amazing weekend, and an even better start to the week. And now that I'm fully caffeinated, I may even have a chance at the same. Thanks, Nesspresso.  To kick things off, I thought it would be fun to do a little Summer shopping haul from one of my fave brands, PrettyLittleThing. If you haven't shopped with them before, I'm sorry, but you're seriously missing out. They're always on top of the latest trends, they have a ridiculously massive selection of clothing, shoes and accessories to choose from, and as a total bonus, they also happen to be super a ..read more

When we think about what it means to look older, we tend to focus on the surface of the skin, but epidermal damage is only part of the problem; our underlying muscles also play a big part in the aging process... party. These muscles naturally weaken over time, causing skin to sag and lose firmness, especially around the eyes where skin is thinner and more fragile. To make matters worse, the natural fat deposits around the area move outward as we age, resulting in those dreaded undereye bags (you can affectionately call them designer if you like, but facts are facts).  Enter Genucel by Chamon ..read more

Hello, and welcome back to another OOTD instalment! It's been a while, so allow me to refresh your memories; OOTD posts run in real-time to Instagram content, only here you get delightful musings and shopable links (which I realize is fully possible on Instagram too, but why give away the milk for free?). Anyway, here we are. 8am on a Thursday, and I've already downed two large coffees prior to the two coffee-related commitments I have scheduled for later today. Can you feel my hands shaking as you read this? Because t-h-e-y-a-r-e. But enough about me and my caffeine addiction, let's get int ..read more

Summer is *finally* on the horizon, and with that comes glowing skin, previously-warm beverages served cold (here's looking at you, soy latte) and, you know, general merriment. What also comes with the territory, however, is the potential for sun damage, and although most people are pretty well versed in SPF by now (we're talking face, body and ears, baby!), what oftentimes gets forgotten are lips. They're delicate, prone to both chapping and burning alike (party), and, frankly, they're just too important not to protect. If you're looking for a great, and also affordable, option to shield you ..read more
