Happy Halloween!

I hope you have a fabulous, spooky, fun & safe halloween! I love this holiday! It's always so much fun to get creative and think up a unique costume.  The photo above is myself last year as a ghost.  I've got to say, doing the makeup was the best part, love it!

Baby Doll

So since it's so chilly today I decided to layer things up.  Pulled out my favourite baby doll dress which is so comfy and makes the many layers I'm wearing not appear as bulky.  Due to the weather we also decided to do photos inside today...where most of this weeks may be as we are expecting major rain & wind.  Stay warm my friends! 

Under the Weather...

A little hair whippin' to keep things fun!

Hey!  Sorry for the lack of post this week, I'm currently a little under the weather & also swamped with studying/projects.  Most of my week has consisted of comfy pants and baggy sweaters...so trust me you haven't missed much.  I will have more for you  next week though!  Until then, take care.

Exciting News!

I'm extremely excited to share some news with you...I am officially an intern with Megan Wappel Designs, which is a stationery & sweets company.  I've been working with MWDesigns for a few weeks now and so far it's been an amazing experience!  I have learned so much and it definitely helps that I work for the most amazing person who is extremely talented and so kind hearted.  Make sure you check some of the beautiful work on the Facebook page.  Oh, and might I add she is a prairie girl too!  Have a great weekend!

There was something I couldn't resist about this bordeaux peplum top which I picked up while attending Top Shop's grand opening a couple weeks ago.  It combines a mix of two of my favourite fall trends...the colour bordeaux and peplum.  And might I add how much I adore these booties?  Ty's mom  gifted me them last year as they are called the "Bellamy" boots, which is my last name, how cute?!

Not Your Average...

...Rain Gear! A difference I found when moving from the suburbs to downtown is you must always dress according to the weather.  When your vehicle is your main means of getting places, it's a lot easier to get away with wearing something that might not suit the weather conditions.  One weather condition I was not so used to dressing for is the rain.  Back home I can't remember the last time I used an umbrella or even owned rain boots.  Here in the city, both are a MUST!  But who wants to wear boring rain gear?  Luckily, many companies are offering a variety of funkier options. Here's a look at a few options I adore.

Tunes Tuesday

Hey Hey!! I hope everyone had a great weekend!  This past weekend Tyler and I had some friends and family from back home come visit.  It was great to see them!  I was also excited to have a quick little visit from a friend (Hi Anna) yesterday as she was also visiting the city.  Other than that I have been studying for midterms and doing countless projects.  I can't remember the last time I had SO many things on the go.  Lucky for me I'm never bored! Haha!

For Tunes Tuesday I'm not showing a new fav but rather an old favourite.  Today's song is from one of my fav albums, Break Up by Pete Yorn & Scarlett Johansson.  The song I chose to show you is called Relator.  I chose this song as it's the one that originally drew me to the album.  I love their soft voices and the mellow tune.  What do you think?

Cool Casual

Can you believe it's Friday already?  This reading week flew by way faster then I expected so I better keep this short and sweet as I still have a mountain of homework to accomplish.  Have a great weekend!

NEW

NEW HAIR & NEW LOOK! I love it!! My hairdresser, Kaela, is amazing.  She always knows exactly what will look best.  We also had a lot of fun catching up.  So a very special thank you to her.  While I was home I was also able to check out Regina's newest boutique, Queen V, where I purchased a few goodies.  My fav has to be this top!  When I'm back home again I will for sure be making another stop.

As for this week, I am spending it back in TO, doing homework.  We have a reading week (which is awesome) so we have time to catch up on all our work.  Well, better get back to it, have a great Wednesday!

Thankful

Happy Thanksgiving Weekend to all you Canadians out there.  I can barely wait to go home for the weekend and spend time with friends and family while enjoying delicious food! But food isn't all that Thanksgiving is about, it's about being thankful and appreciating what you have.  Even if you've had a bad day or bad year there is always something to be thankful for. I know it's difficult to always remember that, after a breakup or rough day at work you may think more negatively then positively.  You may be curious to know why I'm stressing this topic so much and here's why...over the past year and a half my family has been hit with so many obstacles which were devastating & life altering.  Before this time I don't think I appreciated just what I had.  I never found myself truly thankful for what really mattered in life and found myself constantly stressing about minor obstacles.  In no way am I happy about these obstacles, they still hurt my heart to this day, but I have definitely grown as a person.  I truly have learned to count my blessings.  I am so lucky to wake up every morning in this beautiful city, with my health and mobility, with the opportunities that I have and to be able to enjoy them with the most wonderful people I call my friends & family.  I would just like to say I am, from the bottom of my heart, truly blessed and so thankful for the life I lead.  

Happy Thanksgiving!

Easy Breezy

I dressed down this skirt with a cute printed tee.  It's a must to use dressy pieces in multiple ways like this.  No use having something you love sitting in your closet waiting for a special occasion.  

Have a great Wednesday!  Thanks for stopping by!

Tunes Tuesday

If you haven't checked it out yet, you should...I'm talking about No Doubt's new album Push and Shove.  I'm a huge No Doubt fan!  I can't think of a single they've come out with that I haven't liked, every song is just so catchy.  Here is one of my favourites off their new album called Heaven.  Make sure to check it out and while your at it, you might as well just check out the entire album!

Have a Tuneful Tuesday!

Nuit Blanche

Happy Monday!  I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend.  If you were in Toronto I'm hoping you checked out Nuit Blanche.  Nuit Blanche is performance art around the city of Toronto for one whole night.  There is so much excitement around the city, crowds of people are everywhere.  It was such a great time with many neat art exhibits, music and tasty treats!  Here's a look at my night at Nuit Blanche.
