Glossier; A Product Round Up

When your babe of a best friend manages to get you both the most coveted makeup from New York, you have a freak out — I may or may not have burnt the tortilla I was cooking... we reached smoke alarm status.

Now, for those of you who have never herd of the brand Glossier, let me set a few things straight.

  1. Glossier is a company created by Emily Weiss who's focus is on striping down to the best possible ingredients, formulations and combination of products you could ever imagine. They call themselves " a beauty brand inspired by real life," which is exactly what they are
  2. They don't ship to Canada — which is why this is a monumental product round up. But fear not! They're working really hard on getting it to us

Dr.Martens For Days... 365 To Be Exact


October means fall. Fall means no more nerdy sneakers and no more nerdy sneakers mean it's time to bring out the Dr. Martens.

There has not ever, in my entire 23 years of existence been a pair of shoes I have loved more than my Dr. Martens. This is saying a lot; finding shoes is an annoying and time consuming task because I am so picky with how things feel on my feet. Heaven forbid the heel even rubs me the wrong way, or that the pinky toe touches the side if the shoe weird.

I don't know what it is about these shoes that I am so obsessed with! They're edgy, practical but unconventional and are legitimately the coolest boots. 

Stop Hoarding Things You Don't Wear!

This past week I went through my closet and purged a good chunk of clothes I never wear anymore. I love doing this a couple times a year to make room for new clothes and because I don't need to hoard every single item I've ever owned just in case I decide to start wearing it again- this never happens, don't kid yourself.

For The Love of Scrunchies

Scrunchies. Like it or not, they're making a come back and I am the biggest fan

I remember being probably 6 or 7 and owning a tie-dyed orange red and yellow scrunchie that matched my bright orange and red beach sarong with outlines of geckos on it. Extremely fashionable, I know. When I was that young I had absolutely no reason for liking something unless it held a certain function, and this scrunchie, simply kept all my hair back(which, at that age, was just as a large of a task as it is now). There's not a defining moment I can think of when I stopped wearing it, I just remember it being something I loved and then totally forgot about.

Be Cuter, I Dare You

I didn't realize I had a collared shirt obsession until I had to round them up for this post. oops...
More often than not, you'll usually find me wearing some version of a collared shirt, dress or anything else with a collar for that matter... I think I'm in love.

With 2015 coming to an end tonight, I thought it'd be most fitting to do a product round up of some of mine & Pam's top products we have been obsessing over! After reading so many other blogs, watching endless hours of Youtube videos and chatting with friends who are in love with certain products, we couldn't help but go out and try these products for ourselves!

They love opening up a package of their favourite socks, or boxers that they can't live with out.

Fall-ing into a New Season

Fall is a “love it or hate it” kind of thing. You can pretend that you like pumpkin spice lattes, or that you spend your Saturday evenings walking through the river valley admiring the gorgeous yellow, orange, and red leaves, but you can’t fool us fall-lovers; we know your commitment truly lies elsewhere in the seasons.
