How to Stay Cosy During the Winter

(Photo by Paige McNeely)

Happy New Year! This week I have decided to bring you my favourite way to stay cosy in the winter. So grab a tent and let's have some winter fun! ... Yes, I did say tent.

My roommates and I decided to set up a tent in our living room, and once filled with blankets and pillows it the perfect escape from the cold. After we all get home, we snuggle up inside and turn on our favourite TV show, which happens to be Real Housewives of Vancouver (Paige is going to kill me for saying that).

Hot chocolate and cozy pajamas are of course a must! My choice will always be these leopard ones from Target but as you can't get them in Canada anymore, adore me has some super cute sets, some girlie and some more classic. I have to say the best hot chocolate by far is that cookie flavoured one... I think it's honestly just called chocolate chip cookie hot chocolate, I unfortunately can't remember the brand!

Light some candles, preferably baking scented ones like Pumpkin Pecan Waffle from Bath and Body Works- this literally smells like heaven!

Then curl up and enjoy the show, or make fun of the show, which is what we tend to do, but only because I don't think my roomies want to admit they like it ;)

Hope you are having a lovely January!

I was not paid to promote their brand, everything is just my own honest opinion :)

Whatever Wednesdays: Victoria Beckham Hair How-To

Victoria Beckham Ponytail: With her long dark brown hair, Victoria Beckham's hairstyle of choice has become the ponytail. This style is quick, and ultra chic. 1. Start with day-old hair (or even if you are starting with freshly washed hair) and spritz with a volumizing dry shampoo. 2. Pull your hair back with your fingers, smoothing over any stray hairs. 3. Once you have your ponytail in the desired place, fasten with a hair tie. 4. Take your straightener and run it over the ends of your ponytail, to give it a sleek effect. 5. Add a tiny dot of shine serum to the ends. Simply rub the serum between your palms, and run your hands over the end of your ponytail. Voila! Tu es fini, and you have a simple and chic hairdo. xx JD Please leave me a comment let me know what you think! If you have any questions or suggestions: Email me: jessicadonna96@gmail.com

Throwback Everyday Makeup Tutorial

Hello everyone! If you know me, you'll know that I have a slight makeup problem... I have way too much! But I can't help it, I just love it so, and I honestly look forward to putting my makeup on every morning. So today I decided I would do a quick post on my fave go to glam look for daytime. It looks quite heavy, but because I'm using mineral makeup it feels like I'm wearing no face makeup at all! My skin is quite sensitive and dry, so for the longest time I thought that mineral makeup wouldn't work for my skin, but boy was I wrong! I was at Winners recently and saw that they had a couple Bellapierre Cosmetics mineral makeup sets on sale for $14... So I thought I'd try it out, and now I can never go back to regular liquid foundations! Mineral makeup is considered to be better for your skin as it is natural, and usually only contains 3-4 natural ingredients. Bellapierre foundation has an SPF of 15 which can cause a little bit of flashback, so if ...
