I have been so in love with the weather for the past week. It’s incredible to see how much the weather affects my mood and mindset for the start of the day. It’s been rare to wake up to s...
I don’t think I have ever been able to walk outside in my spring jacket before April, and here I am, prancing around in flats without socks at the beginning of February. Bless the temperamental...
Let’s rewind to the epicness of last week, shall we? It was the first time I had experienced a Seattle winter and let me tell you, I was surprised! Coming from Toronto, I’m used to a snow...
It’s already halfway through the first month of 2012 and I’m still trying to figure out what my resolutions are this year. It’s been a while since I’ve had any real resolution...

What a week of face-food stuffing it’s been! I don’t know if it’s possible to eat more turkey in a year, but I definitely do not want any more turkey for a very long time! Hopefully...

Any other time of the year, I try my best to steer clear of all things bling. I’m not too sure why I’m so adverse to bejeweled sparkliness every other month except for December. During th...
Um, hello December?!?! How the heck did you manage to sneak up on me like this? Usually I feel like I’m pretty well prepared for the Holidays once December rolls around, but this year I am faaa...

Seven months ago, I decided to take the plunge and buy a Mook. I had been eyeing these plaques since I first saw them pop up on Etsy in 2008 but never had a real reason to adopt one (or two). Fast fo...
It’s no secret that I usually spend me weekends exploring the little nooks & crannies of the city since I’m usually at work until way past sunset during the week. Trying to find cool...

My sister linked me this video almost a month ago and I’ve been watching it more and more recently to wear my scarf in cuter ways depending on the rest of my outfit. Despite the fact that I do ...
I bought this purple jacket back in the summer when I was still in Toronto, hoping it would come in handy for the chillier Seattle Fall. I’ve only been able to wear this jacket out once because...

I bought my first flat iron (which was also a BaByliss) back in 2005 for about $150 during the time when CHI flat irons were all the rage. Having never purchased beauty supplies or tools before, I wa...
