Winter finally crept up on us, and as much as we hate it, we know we need to keep ourselves warm but that doesn’t mean we still can’t look good! One of my favorite trends this season has got to be the leg warmers…and even though they were a big thing back in the 80s, they’re more modernized now so here’s how you can incorporate leg warmers into your wardrobe! With Tights I love love looove wearing tights with leg warmers – it looks absolutely adorable! Pair your leggings/tights with a warm sweater dress and your Uggs. Make sure you wear your leg warmers un...

Is it just me, or is the scarf not a super-versatile fashion item that seems to go with everything? I fell in love with scarves, and shawls when I was a little girl and saw my mom wearing all different kinds and colors. Since then, I’ve been a true scarf girl…with what I now like to call “my collection of scarves”…meaning there are just too many too count and I should probably give some away. But nevertheless, I can’t seem to part without them and for good reason too. For me at least, a scarf can do wonders for an otherwise boring outfit. And since I don...

It’s the year of the crazy nail polish colors, and we’re starting to see more and more wild colors on every single nail from black, to midnight black, and bright neon colors. So how do you choose which shade to sport? Well first, assess your situation. Are you a 9-5 girl working in an office setting? If so, you may want to stay away from really dark colors such as the popular black shades, as well as wild hues like bright green, blue, orange, or yellow. Instead, opt for a hot neon pink or a sparkly white…after all, you still have to look somewhat professional. Needless to say...

Dry, over-treated hair is a big beauty culprit that most of us suffer from and it’s so hard to find a quick, cheap fix for parched hair. I’ve tried many different shampoos to treat my damaged hair, but most of them just weighed it down, especially since I have super thin strands. So I went out looking for some sort of hair mask/treatment that would actually work for me, but of course, I can’t trust anything until I try it out. Long story short, I ended up getting a hair treatment mask called Phytokarite Ultra Nourishing Mask for Ultra Dry Hair, and was I ever glad I did. This...

I absolutely love reading about new designers and their recent accomplishments, but I especially enjoyed reading about designer Dinh Ba because he’s right here at home in Canada…more specifically Quebec. So who is this guy? Dinh Ba was immersed in fashion at a very young age, thanks to his mother who was an haute-couture designer in Vietnam. Ba came to Quebec with his parents at age 6 (his mom is Vietnamese and his dad is Indian). In less than one year he was already picking up his first needles and sewing alongside his mother. Eventually he graduated Lasalle College and worked fo...

If you haven’t yet heard of Mario Badescu Skin Care products, they’re actually some of the best products you can get for your skin, especially if you’re acne prone. What I like about Mario Badescu Skin Care is that they personalize the products according to your skin type. So even before you purchase anything, they’ll have you fill out some questions about your skin so that they can match you up with the right products. I’ve been a big fan of Mario Badescu because not only because their products have actually worked on my skin but also because it’s relative...

There is nothing more I hate than not having a Sephora anywhere near where I live…so that’s why I have to do all my Sephora shopping online. It’s not that I mind shopping online, but the live experience is just sooo much better…the smells…the silky creams..you get it! Anyways, Sephora’s actually having a sale now, and they’re featuring NARS’ Orgasm/Laguna Blush Bronzer Duo and Orgasm Nail Polish Set for only $53! I love allll NARS products, I think they do wonders for your face, but I especially like this blush duo, the colors are absolutely bre...

There’s nothing funner for me than getting a bunch of my girlfriends together and whipping up fast and easy homemade beauty recipes. We do everything from crazy face masks, to nail polishes, to moisturizers, etc. And, since my last “make your own lipgloss” post seemed to generate so much buzz, I though I’d give you guys another yummy lipgloss recipe, and this time it’s delicious cranberry! Here’s how to! Step 1: Take 1 tablespoon almond oil, 10 fresh cranberries, 1 teaspoon honey and 1 teaspoon petroleum jelly (optional – for more shine). Step 2: Mix ...
