Morphe’s in Sephora Canada!
The ever popular, affordable makeup brand, Morphe, has now reached Sephora Canada, albeit online only for most of us, and with a smaller product range than available on their site. They will be launching in 15 stores Canada-wide. Last year, Morphe entered Ulta stores across the border, in the U.S., which fans of the brand were very excited about as it seemed to be a good fit. I’ve seen a lot of negative feedback on Twitter about this. People feel that Morphe and Sephora are not a good match, and that they’ll be gone again after the holidays. Similar to what we saw happening with ColourPop last year. My opinion?…

Winter Beauty Wishlist | 2016
These are the top five beauty items I’d like to add to my collection this season. The last few months, I’ve been really expanding my collection because of all the new launches. Just when I thought it was time to slow down, there were three launches I got super excited about, a skincare item with rave reviews I want to try for myself, and a recommended blush. My poor, poor wallet. LA Girl Pro Coverage Foundation – There’s nothing I love more than discovering new affordable foundations. This has the stamp of approval from both Tati Westbrook and Kathleen Lights, both whose opinions I trust. My skin has been extremely…

Summer Beauty Wishlist | 2016
These are the top five beauty items I’d like to add to my collection this season. The last few months, I’ve been really expanding my collection because of all the new launches. Just when I thought it was time to slow down, there were three launches I got super excited about, a skincare item with rave reviews I want to try for myself, and a recommended blush. My poor, poor wallet. Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette – This beautiful, bold, warm palette has my name written all over it. I think I watch a new tutorial on it everyday. The brights looked daunting to me at first, but this…

Winter Style Wishlist
It’s that time again; the time I share with you the top five items I would like to add to my wardrobe this season. Let’s get into it: Columbia Shimmerlicious Jacket in Blue Macaw – I’ve been wearing the same handful of winter jacket for many years now. I usually wear items until they absolutely need to be replaced. However, I think it’s time to get a new one. This jacket is a beautiful colour, looks nice, and has a fur hood which I love. Living in Canada, I have to sacrifice a chic looking coat for something a bit more practical, unless I want to pay a ton of…

Autumn Beauty Wishlist
These are the top five beauty items I’d like to add to my collection this season. The last few months, I’ve been focused on face and lip products and am pretty happy with my collection in those departments. This fall I’d like to add more eye products to my arsenal. Mac Warm Neutral Eyeshadow Palette – I don’t own any Mac shadows, but everyone says they’re amazing. I was going to build my own 15 pan palette, but it’s cheaper to buy the ready-made palette. Also, this warm neutral one has all the colours I love, there isn’t one I wouldn’t use. So yes, I’d be losing the customizability, but…

Autumn Style Wishlist
After looking through my closet, and watching a ton of fall fashion haul on YouTube, I have come up with the top 5 items I would like to add to my wardrobe this season. Daniel Wellington Classic Sheffield Watch – This watch is classic, and not too flashy. I love the rose gold, simple face, and black leather strap. A watch of this style and quality would work for me for many years so it’s worth the splurge. Zara Riding Boot in Taupe – Casey Holmes hauled these boots and I fell in love. I have wanted a flat riding boot for awhile, but haven’t found a pair that I…

Summer Beauty Wishlist
These beauty items have been at the top of my ‘to-buy’ list for quite some time now, I just haven’t bitten the bullet yet. Too Faced Semisweet Chocolate Bar Palette – This palette is beautiful! I’m especially excited for the Peanut Butter shade to the right of the blue. Shockingly, this will be my first highend eyeshadow palette – I know – I’m behind on the times! I just feel like it’s more of an investment so I thought long and hard on which one I wanted. Mac Lipstick in Plumful – Described as a blossoming rose-plum. Though this isn’t an overly summery shade, I think this will be a…

Summer Wardrobe Wishlist
Now that the weather is heating up, I’ve realized my summer wardrobe needs a bit of a revamp. I’ve condensed my wishlist into the top 5 items I hope to add to my wardrobe in the next few months. 1. Black Toms My ‘casual sneakers’ are on their last leg, they’ve lasted me 5-6 years so I think it’s time to say goodbye. I need a replacement, so I thought Toms would be perfect. They’ll look good with skinny jeans, shorts, and dresses which is exactly what I need. I don’t usually like the good of trainers with skinny jeans and dresses, but I don’t always want to wear flats…

Spring Wardrobe Wishlist
Spring is right around the corner, or so I’ve been told. Here in Halifax we just got another 10+ cm of snow. However, when spring finally decides to show up, I want to be ready. Here are the five items I’d like to add to my wardrobe to transition into the warmer months to come. 1. Ripped Jeans I have been seeing these everywhere, so glad this trend is back. I love the light wash of this pair from American Eagle. They will easily take me into spring and summer. 2. Light-Weight Jacket Living in Halifax, you need a good rain coat in the spring. I love the bright yellow…
