Charm Your Mom on Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day is next weekend and I hope all of you are planning on spending some quality time with your moms. I’m heading home this week to help my mom clean out the house (fun..) as she is looking to sell it this Spring. It seems like every Mother’s Day people think they need to get their mom the typical items, something that says mom and flowers or some bath items. Don’t get me wrong, these things are great and I’m sure all…

Bathing suit weather is RIGHT around the corner and I have been on the hunt for some super cute new suits. This year I want to try to stay away from my comfort zone with suits and pick a style that I have never worn before.

How To :: Hang Photos Without Damaging Your Walls

Some of you might know but I recently purchased my first home (yay!) so I’ve been much more careful when posting and hanging art on the walls compared to when I was living in an apartment building. I’ve tried that whole velcro thing and those clips that you pull off the walls after but sometimes they just don’t work. I found that my heavier art pieces don’t stay so I am forced to put whole and nails in the walls. A good example is my signed…

Army Jackets

Besides my hunt for the perfect pair of light washed denim (see post here), I had also been on the hunt for an Army like green Spring jacket. I wanted to grab one last season but I could never find one that fitted me right or was in my price range. I couldn’t believe it when Avon Canada and I partnered up for some style posts and this green jacket was one of the pieces. This shade of green can pair with almost…
