Earlier this year I had the opportunity to attend an event that Wet n Wild hosted in Toronto. Even though it is a brand that has been around for a long time, it wasn't talked about that often until recently when they launched the Photo Focus collection.
It's tangy, citrusy, spicy. I'm not talking about the last meal I made using a cookbook I recently picked up. Herbal Essences' new Argan Oil of Morocco collection is definitely something to indulge in.
Here it is! A *short* video of what we did, ate and learned in Portugal. I've been promising this vlog to my Insta-fam for the last couple of weeks, and finally wrapped it up. There was so many hours of footage that I had to filter through and compile into less than 20 minutes.
After pinning Portugal-related things and researching its culture for the last couple of years, I spontaneously booked a flight for two to Lisbon one afternoon. I didn't know where we'd be staying or what exactly we would do, but I knew that I'd need a pick-me-up at the end of March to get over the winter hump, enjoy sunshine and welcome a new season.
Whenever I get ready for an event or occasion, it seems like I can easily spend 40-50 minutes doing my makeup. Once I’ve perfected my face, I’m already running late and try to whip something up with my hair with the 3-5 minutes I have to spare! It’s a terrible habit but I am always on the hunt to find pretty, effortless hairstyles that I can achieve in a very short amount of time to complete my look.
I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve partnered with Goody to share chic, affordable and easy-to-achieve hair looks throughout the year in hopes to inspire your hair creations! Let’s begin with a couple of lip trends I’ve been absolutely loving, and the hair styles that pair perfectly with them, that I want to implement into my lifestyle this spring/summer.
As much as James and I enjoy exploring the city, checking out Toronto's hottest restaurants or going to a show/movie, we are complete homebodies at heart. Our idea of the perfect fun night out is being curled up at home or going for casual strolls around our neighbourhood (woo, the Junction!) with our cute furry friend.
Lately we've both been traveling quite a bit, sometimes with conflicting schedules. Being at home and coming up with quick, in-the-moment "date night" ideas has become our thing! Here are some ways we've been spending quality time together, while being relaxed, stress-free and comfortable.
One of my most frequently asked questions is how I do my eyebrows. Since it is highly requested, I decided to film the process for you! I'm not going to lie, eyebrows are the one thing I spend MOST of my time on when I'm doing my makeup; at least a good 5-8 minutes. Check out the video above for the full tutorial, as well as little tips and tricks that I like to do on a daily basis to ensure they stay put all day!

We’re in the middle of a fresh new season and I always find this time of the year to be inspiring because you get to embrace spring cleaning. Get rid of your bulky winter parka and bring out the jean jackets; clean that pantry you’ve been dreading all winter for healthier snack options. One thing we absolutely can’t forget about is your skincare routine!
Here are some little tips you could incorporate into your day-to-day lifestyle that will have YOUR skin thanking you.
