I’m always in such a rush when it comes to summer days and running out to different pool parties and family functions that I have started to keep a little make up bag full of all the essentials that I could need. I like to keep this bag either in my normal day bag or by the front door in case I am switching bags for the day. I have found the little bag has kept me more organized and ready for anything.…

The other week, I headed into Toronto for the #AlmayPicnic event for a bunch of us bloggers. This event was held a little bit different compared to others that I go to, but I liked it that way. This time we were given everything we needed to make ourselves look flawless from Almay – and may I add, the products were packaged in the most adorable lunch bags that you ever did see! We were first told to use the Makeup Remover Towelettes and Oil-Free Makeup Remover…

The new limited edition summer Verbena collection from L’Occitane contains an organic extract of Verbena from Provence and is designed for both men and women. I found that the scent was very strong when first sprayed but then turned into a light citrus smell that I actually enjoyed. The packaging is very well done and makes you think of summer with the green tints that each item has. The collection includes: Frisson de Verveine Edt $54/100ml Fresh Shower Gel $22/250ml Cooling Body Gel…

The Miami photographer, Mademoiselle Coco, the Dallas truck driver and basically everyone, has his/her own black moment.

You can wear and combine it with anything you want. It suits everyone… perfect for the blondes, the brunettes and redheads. And it easily goes as an outfit for the daily activities, weekend clubbing…

Are you a fan of beauty blenders? I have heard mixed reviews and even I have a love/hate relationship with them. I find they work well with some products and others not so much. An example is powder foundations or blushes as I find that the sponges don’t seem to give the same coverage as using the sponge that is usually provided with the item but when some liquid foundations I find it easier to get into the small areas such as around…

Over the past month I have been experimenting with the new HTC One M8 phone. I remember seeing it for the first time at the launch and being sad when I didn’t win the raffle to win one! It’s such a unique phone that offers features like no others on the market. Being a blogger, I take A LOT of photos. Whether it being a selfie, an outfit shot, food pictures, beauty products…you get the point! What I liked the most about the…

Sporting ripped jeans in the summer is way to stay cool but also have your legs fully covered. I like them the best for the cooler dinner nights or going to see fireworks. I’ve had this pair for a long time and even though they got a bit bagger, they turned into more of a boyfriend’s type jean which I’m okay with! Be sure to check out the bottom of the post for some of my favourite current ripped jeans styles! Top: Loft…
