Cuticle Tattoos

Have you heard about the new craze? Cuticle tattoos!!! I think it looks really cool and edgy. There are tons of design you can try. I also thinking it would look really cool with black nail polish. I  will try it sometime soon but only temporary of course. I will post pics and a DIY when I do it. 

What do you think? Would you rock cuticle tattoos?

Angelica Blick for Bik Bok

Source: Angelica Blick - http://angelicablick.se

Angelica Blick is one of my favourite bloggers. I have been following her blog for a few years now and she has great style. She recently designed a collection with Bik Bok. I love all the pieces (obviously) but these are my absolute favourites. Unfortunately I don't think I will be able to buy them here in Canada but they still give me style inspiration. Check out Angelica's blog here for the entire collection and more pics.

P.S. I am loving asymmetrically cut skirts and dresses. Can't wait to wear them this spring/summer!!!

Thanks from reading!!

Rag and Bone: Miramar Jean

Have you seen these amazing jeans??? OMG I am dying to have them. They are actually digitally printed sweatpants...Can you believe it? They look super cool and comfortable. You can view them here on the rag & bone website but they are not available to purchase right now due to popularity. For those of you in Canada, you can find them at Holt Renfrew. I can't wait to see them in person. What do you think of them? Can you tell they are sweatpants? Comment below.

Thanks for reading!

Philosophy Review: Purity Made Simple, Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash, Hope in a Jar

I have been using the same skincare regiment for a little while now with Philosophy products. I thought I would share a review of these products with you. I have strange skin lol! It is oily and dry at the same time, I have large pores and I break out quite easily. It has been a constant challenge since I was a teenager to keep my breakouts under control and my skin looking decent. These three philosophy products have done me well but I am still on the search for that miracle product….if it even exists!!

Purity Made Simple ($26 CAD at Sephora):
I use this product morning and night. I really like the feel and it has a nice light pleasant smell. My face definitely feels clean after using it. The product does not seem harsh on my skin so I would say it is suitable for sensitive skin. I really do like this face wash but I haven't noticed much of a difference in the size of my pores. It did however keep breakouts to a minimum. A little bit goes a long way so it is worth the money.

Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash ($27 CAD at Sephora):
I only use this product at night. Because I have sensitive skin I found it to be too harsh to use twice a day (but some may be able to). It doesn't have much of a smell at all. My face feels clean and smooth after using this product. It is a little bit gritty (but in a good way). Again I didn't notice much of a difference in the size of my pores and there was no change in the oiliness of my skin. A little bit goes a long way so it is worth the money.

Hope in a Jar ($52 CAD a Sephora):
I usually just used this in the morning but sometimes at night too. It has a very light smell. It is a non-greasy formula and dries really fast. This is a good thing for me because of my oily skin. Although I like this product and it does provide moisture I find it to be a little expensive.






Overall I really like these Philosophy products because they are great for sensitive skin and they don't seem harsh. I think they would work really well on a lot of skin types. If you have complicated skin (like me!), I would still give these products a try. I am happy with them but just not blown away. I will be forever searching for that perfect skincare regiment! If you have any recommendations let me know!

New Year's Eve Outfit

Silver Sweater: H&M // White Shirt: Suzy Shier // Jeans: Bluenotes // Boots: Boohoo

Here is a closer look of what I wore on New Year's Eve. It was pretty casual but I added a bit of sparkle with the sweater and rhinestone collar.

I went to the store last night to look at a better camera. I recently bought a decent digital camera but there are some mirrorless cameras on sale this week so I might do an exchange. I am hoping I will be able to take better outfit pics.

Isn't this weather crazy!!!! It is super cold and snowing like crazy in Canada. I'm so tried of winter already lol!

Victoria Secret Fashion Show

Who watched the Victoria Secret Runway Show last night? It was amazing! I always love watching the creativity behind each show. The designs and outfits are incredible. One of my favourite segments this year was "Birds of Paradise". The feathers/wings were beautiful. I think Taylor Swift did a really good job performing. I think she fits in well with the angels.

I love watching the behind the scenes footage too. It looks like they have so much fun. I want to be one of them hah!!! The show also gave me some fitness motivation. I'm going to Mexico in February so I gotta get this body in shape. 

What were some of your favourite looks from the show last night?

My Giant Tiger Outfit

Turtleneck: Giant Tiger ($8.00) // Pencil Skirt: Giant Tiger ($10.00) // Accessories: Smart Set

Here is the outfit that I wore on TV. Because I was showcasing holiday outfits I thought I should wear something that could be worn to a holiday party too. This skirt is really quite cool. It is almost leather-like and it has a really nice design on the material. Perfect for a holiday skirt. The turtleneck comes in lots of different colours but I liked the all black look because it is chic! The accessories are from Smart Set. As you can see it is really easy to put together a holiday look on a budget. I only spent $18.00 at Giant Tiger on these two pieces and then I used gold jewellery I already had. They have tons of different outfit options too. Lots of different sparkly tops…make sure to check out your local store!
Here is a link to their website (www.gianttiger.com).

Giant Tiger - Outfits (Part 2)

Here are some detailed pictures of the holiday outfits showcased with Giant Tiger and CHCH. All items are from Giant Tiger. They have a wide variety of clothes for the holidays, from XS to 3X. I wish I was able to share a group shot (with Lori from CHCH and Alison from Giant Tiger) but unfortunately the picture didn't take. I will post details of my outfit tomorrow. 

Jackie is wearing a beautiful dress with a lace overlay that is very feminine and pretty ($29). It is paired with open-toed sling backs with gold accents ($20) and finished with a great gold clutch ($12). It is a perfect outfit to wear to a fancier party or New Years Eve party.

 Kate is wearing a sweater dress with a skinny belt ($15). Paired with oxblood boots to give the outfit a pop of colour ($9) and finished with a scarf that adds a little sparkle for the holidays ($9).

 Sue is wearing a ruffle cardigan ($15), paired with a beautiful blue top underneath ($15). The is flattering because it has the ruching to the side. On the bottom she is wearing black dress pants ($15) and chunky black boots with gold accents ($29).

Fashion Segment with Giant Tiger and CHCH (Part 1)

Hi Everyone!

Here is a link to a video of the fashion segment I did with Giant Tiger and CHCH. You will see three different holiday looks and family sleepwear. I will post some pics of the outfits and my outfit tomorrow.

Sunny Day with Pets

Jacket: Giant Tiger // Shirt: Winners // Jeans: Bluenotes // Shoes: Converse Dainty //
Purse: Phillip Lim for Target // Sunglasses: H&M

I know you have seen me wear similar versions of this outfit before but I like it! It is an easy outfit to put together and it looks nice for casual days. As mentioned before I am constantly wearing this jacket from Giant Tiger. Such a good find at a good price. I am actually going to be doing another fashion segment with Giant Tiger soon. It will be aired on 19 November but I will give you more details before then.

Aren't my pets cute?? Meet Jazz (my black lab) and Rosie (my cat). I love them!!
