Good Bye 2016 and Hello 2017

Red Dress, Ghanaian Blogger, Sears Canada
The year 2016 has been a whirlwind of life changes for me. In 2016 I got engaged, married, started a new job, lost my car, and moved into a new home.  It was also the year that this blog began to grow and I'm starting to realize the potential that it has.  This January marks five years of blogging, but this year marked the first year that I dropped the "blogspot.com" and gave the blog its own  dot com domain. In 2016 I was able to collaborate with some amazing brands and people.

I am also very excited about the potential that 2017 brings. It will not be easy to make 2017 even better than 2016 but I will surely try. This year my goal is to master the art of talking less about what I want to do and just taking action to do it.

Happy Holidays... Red Pleated Skirt

Red Pleated Skirt, Camal Wool Jacket, Toronto Blogger
Tis the season to be jolly. With christmas being today, I thought it would be fun to get into the Christmas season and expand my wardrobe colour situation by introducing some red into it. I have never been a real fan of the colour red but I must say it goes so well with tan and it gets me into the festive season. I thought I would do that by styling this red pleated skirt.

Keeping it comfortable... Faux Leather Jacket


Faux Leather Jacket, Toronto Blogger
Wow what a crazy last few weeks!  I’ve been away for a while but will be ramping up the posting again. I’m happy to announce that I got married last weekend and although I’m sad it’s over I am kind of relieved that I can now focus on other things besides just wedding stuff.  That was essentially my life for the last couple of months.  Planning a wedding is not an easy task and this whole experience has helped me strengthen my skills in time management, organization, and budgeting.

Over the Knee Boots: A Must Have

Over the Knee Boots, Toronto Blogger,Dixie Outlet Mall
Fall is in full swing here in Toronto and one of my favorite staples right now are over the knee boots. I love them because they are versatile to style, they keep me warm during colder weather and they add a friendly edge to almost any outfit.
