Top 3 Things to do in Hamilton This Summer

Overalls: Marshalls / Shoes: Cougar c/o Top 3 Things to do in Hamilton This Summer Bike the Red Hill Valley Trail Just recently I discovered where the red bridge that goes over the QEW goes.

3 Step Post Workout Skin Care Routine

This year, I started to take more time to focus on eating better and maintaining a healthier lifestyle. As some of you know, blogging is not my full-time gig. I also work 9-5 in an office, which results in sitting at a desk more than I’d like. As part of my new routine, I’ve been taking the time to meal prep, especially with lunches, which helps me to stay on track. I’m also less likely to visit a fast-food joint during my breaks when…

Do Cougar Rain Boots Really Keep Water Out?

Who says Spring Showers need to be bad? I say as long as you have some cute boots and an umbrella, bring it on! For this post, I’m partnering up with Cougar Shoes who generously let me try out a few shoes from their new Spring Collection. I’m a big fan of rain boots and have a few pairs already but they are all super tall which can be annoying to wear for quick outings. When I saw that Cougar Shoes had small…

Create a Straw Tassel Clutch for $10

Since last summer, I’ve been eyeing a Straw Tassel type of bag. I’ve seen a few in the stores but they were all between $40-$50 Canadian which was a little high for a bag that I might only use a few times during the summer. Creativity struck the other week while I was walking around my local craft store and spotted a ton of plain straw beach accessories. There was everything from clutches, beach bags and hats. I seriously had to hold myself…

Finding Your Style

Finding your style can be hard! When looking through my closet the other day I was trying to think of what type of style I have. I tried to pinpoint it but couldn’t. This got me thinking that we don’t always need to have one specific ‘look’ to us. When getting dressed for the day it all depends on my mood. If I’m in a rush then I’m most likely going to grab my favourite pair of jeans and pair it with a simple sweater.…
