Lace Coat

I’ve been looking for a lace coat for a while now and I finally found this beautiful one from Ever New. It’s exactly what I’ve been looking for. I love the lace detailing on the back. You can easily dress the coat up or down based on the occasion. I recently wore it to my Nephew’s Christening paired with a dress and then on a weekend trip to the flower market dressed down with jeans.  It’s definitely become one of those versatile pieces in my wardrobe that will help lessen the amount of time’s that I have nothing to wear. There are certain items that work for so many occasions that you can always turn to them when you’re in a clothing rut. It’s so beautiful that it instantly makes me feel pulled together.

 

One of my favourite Saturday morning rituals is visiting the flower markets on Avenue Road in Toronto. I’ve been anxiously awaiting peony season and it’s finally arrived. Take a look at the beautiful options below and stay tuned for details on the upcoming 3rd Annual Pink the Town Peony Party on Friday, June 10th. Save the date! Ticket details coming soon.

Snacking Queen

I’m basically the snacking queen. So, when Smartfood reached out to me to partner up on a collab about snacking I obviously couldn’t say no. Smartfood popcorn has always been one of my favourite go-to snacks. It’s super addicting. The white cheddar cheesy goodness just melts in your mouth. Smartfood recently commissioned a survey and found that nearly one third of Canadian women hide their snacks. Anyone else guilty of this? I definitely am!

Enter every woman’s best kept secret: the SmartStash! Whether it’s the top shelf of the cupboard or the pantry or in your desk drawer at work, we all seem to have a secret little hiding spot. For me, it’s definitely my desk drawer at work. 

I’ve also discovered a few other handy little hiding spot ideas. Check them out below and keep reading for a fun contest! 

 

SmartStash #1: I’ve found that the prettier the container, the less likely my boyfriend is to open it. If I stash my snacks in something pink or covered in flowers, my boyfriend won’t be going anywhere near it.

SmartStash #2: The coffee mug. To other’s it may look like I’m drinking a cup of coffee at my desk, but only I know the truth.

SmartStash # 3: The top shelf of the cupboard behind the pretty dishes, mugs or glasses. You know the dishes and glasses that you only use on special occasions? It makes for the perfect hiding spot since those items are rarely moved.

And there you go! Happy snacking everyone!

Tied With A Bow

Can we talk about this top below? I’m obsessed. The first day I wore it I received about a thousand compliments. It really is a stand out, especially from the back. I have always loved off the shoulder tops, so I’m super excited that they are everywhere this season. It means I now have so many options to choose from. I’m loving the shape of the sleeves on this one and the big, oversized bow on the back. I also love how nice it pairs with white jeans. Check out the shopping details below!

Mother’s Day Fragrance Guide

Is it just me or is shopping for the perfect Mother’s Day gift a bit of a struggle? Like really, how are you supposed to find a gift that basically says “thanks for giving me life and being the best person ever?”. It’s just impossible to find a gift that meaningful. Lucky for us, Mom’s always seem to love absolutely anything you give them. They always think it’s too much, which makes spoiling Mom even better. Flowers are great, but they only last a few days. I love the idea of gifting Mom with a beautiful fragrance that will last for year’s instead of just days.

Check out a few of my favourite options below!

The new Marc Jacobs Daisy Dream Blush Edition is housed in one of the cutest bottles I’ve ever seen. The Marc Jacobs Daisy scents are all so light and airy that it makes them really wearable and a good gift for just about anyone. 

Notes: Violet Leaves, Lily of the Valley, Vetiver, Waterlily, Rose, Clean Musks, Bergamot, Freesia.

The newest scent from the Chloe collection is called Love Story. Chloe is my go-to fragrance. I find all of the perfumes so warm and sweet all at the same time. Plus, the bottles are so pretty they make for beautiful display items on a vanity. Chloe scents have lasting power, which I love. You can still smell it on your wrist at the end of the day, but they are never over-bearing.

Notes: Orange Blossom, Prunus Flower, Dewey Floral Accord.

Dolce & Gabbana Rosa Excelsa is housed in a beautiful frosted bottle and joins the floral family of the other Dolce fragrances. If you could bottle spring, this is what it would smell like. 

 Notes: Papaya Flower, Neroli leaves, White Amaryllis, White Daffodil, White water Lily, African Dog Rose, Turkish Rose Absolute, Cashmeran, Musk, Sandalwood.
