Holographic Vans

Over the Thanksgiving long weekend, I visited my cottage. Along the way, I stopped at a pumpkin patch to take some fall pictures. I wore this casual fall combo, plaid, Levi’s and my new holographic Vans from Union Jack Boots. My flannel shirt is from Old Navy, my Levi’s 501 jeans are from NEON Toronto, mirror sunglasses c/o Clearly.ca,  and…

NEON Clothing Toronto + Canada’s Wonderland outfit

NEON Clothing on Queen West re-opened their doors last month in Toronto, offering lifestyle, adventure and fashion under one roof. I had the chance to visit the Canadian retailer, and pick out an outfit for a weekend of exploring Canada's Wonderland!

I was so impressed by their store design. All of the fixtures were for sale too, and I wanted to take off with an industrial chic pendant lamp, or a vintage Vespa vestibule! NEON Toronto carries both mens’ and ladies fashion as well as a hefty shoe and accessory section. I also spotted some on-trend bomber jackets from authentic outfitter, Alpha Industries. There were plenty of waterproof Timberland boots and Fjällräven backpacks for taking on the Canadian climate. I also really liked their wide selection of Levi’s jeans, shirts and dresses. how to wear fjallraven backpack I picked out a Billabong daisy print blouse, classic Levi's 501 jeans and a flamingo pink Fjällräven Kånken backpack in peach pink. I wanted a colourful, but practical outfit. The pieces also can be mixed with other favourites from my closet for a myriad of looks.

TIFF Essentials Gifting Lounge

blue-floral-wrap-dress-4-of-8 A few weeks ago, I visited the Essentials TIFF Gifting Lounge... which felt like a dream! To the event, I wore a floral wrap dress from Primark for an easy summer look. The Essentials 7 gifting lounge was open to celebs and media to preview new releases from brands like Smashbox Cosmetics, Vitamin Water, Saucony Canada and KMS California hair care. essentials-lounge-2016-82 essentials-lounge-2016-195blue-floral-wrap-dress-8-of-8 I had the chance to get my hair done by KMS California stylist and loved the chic braid combined with easy-going waves. He started by adding some Hair Play texturizing spray, and curled my hair with a curling iron. To get the side braid, he did a simple mini french braid. To set the style, he used Hair Stay maximum hold hair spray. This kept it flawless even in the humidity!

I wore a similar pink Sentaler wrap coat this weekend, so I had to share some pics! Just like the Kate Middleton Sentaler look, I wore…

Nudestix Magnetic Eye Color Review

Nudestix is a Canadian, cruelty-free beauty brand sold at Sephora. I got a chance to learn about their products at the grand opening of the Yonge and Eglinton Sephora, and sampled the Nudestix Magnetic Eye Color pencils. These eyeshadow pencils come in both matte and satin finishes, isn't tested on animals and is free of preservatives... all the things I look for in cosmetics! I wanted to share my thoughts in a Nudestix Magnetic Eye Color review. nudestix-magnetic-eye-color-review-try-on

Nudestix Magnetic Eye Color review: application

These products are a traditional pencil, and glide on the skin smoothly. I didn't find it scratchy at all and it was very creamy! The pencils blended easily with my fingers and I found it was best to build up coverage to create the desired look. I would definitely recommend using an eyeshadow primer, and also a matte powder shadow all over the eyelid to help create a blended look. My favourite part about the product? I LOVE that it comes with a custom, dedicated sharpener. I've ruined too many gorgeous chubby pencils with crappy dull sharpeners that are too big or too small for the product. I can feel confident that I won't completely ruin these amazing pencils!
