Hello!  Today's Fab February is a spring clothing haul from Vero Moda. There is only one store (that I know of) outside of Quebec and I have seen so many of their nice clothes on Anna Saccone's blog that I knew I had to go inside when I found it. They were having a sale, so I actually went back and picked up another two items. I truly believe in the rule that you should never buy anything full price.  Here are the items I picked up: I love the pattern and the high-low hem line of this button up. It is light and airy, and perfect for spring. The other is a wool knit sweater that has sequins all through and just the perfect pick me up on a cold rainy morning.  The first time I was there I got two dresses, both reduced from over $35 to $12.50. The first is a black shift dress with beaded detail on the sleeves. The other is a sweetheart neckline with sheer mesh over top. It is incredibly comfortable and breathable.  I hope you enjoyed this post and mayb...

Today's Fab February is looking ahead to the warmer rainy days of spring, which I am sure are only days away. (After, of course, the latest cold front passes then I am positive it will be spring). So looking ahead to those beautiful days when you will still need to dress warm, but not polar vortex warm, here are a few items to have on stand-by in your closet: 1. Cozy Knits. This has not changed from my winter weather post, however now you may not have to wear 4 layers of thermal underwear underneath your sweater. You can just be cozy in the sweater worn all by itself. 2. Thick Leggings . No leggings are not pants, but they can be worn underneath your long cozy sweaters. Just make sure the sweater comes down to at least mid thigh if you are planning on wearing leggings and no pants. 3. Rubber Boots . Get rid of those clunky winter boots and grab your bright yellow rubber boots! Or riding boots. They come in all sorts of colours and patterns nowadays so pick which one is you...

I have had a number of requests for this post, and I thought now would be a good time to do it since a lot of people are going away on the weekends or on holiday. Most of these products are just in my everyday makeup bag, but a lot of them I have in a travel size, to make them more convenient to carry. By no means are there fewer products, I tend to bring things "just in case" which leads to a lot of unnecessary items being brought along.  So this is what I pack when I am just going to visit family, or whatever, but they can be tapered to wherever you are going whether it is hot or cold there. It is currently rainy and cold in Canada, so let's pretend we're going away on a nice ski weekend, to sip hot chocolate and watch all the skiers go down the hill. Pictures to come! 1. Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer in the Travel Size . This is my go-to primer. It helps with redness, it moisturizes, and it creates a gorgeous base for makeup. The fact that it comes in a conveni...

Hey guys! Sorry my blogmas kind of dwindled away, but I was really sick for the last week. SO I am now hopefully getting back into blogging regularly. So here's what I got (that it beauty related) for Christmas 2013: 1. Urban Decay Naked Palette. I'm a little late jumping on this band wagon, however I have heard so many amazing things about this palette that I am super excited to try it. My first impressions are that the eye shadows are very pigmented. 2. Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner in Intense Black . This is the only liquid eye liner that I can use, and Stila does not irritate my eyes, or smudge, and it is the perfect shade of black. 3. Too Faced Beauty Blogger Darlings . This is the cutest gift set! The bronzer is so matte and smells like chocolate. I will do a review of all of the products in the set once I have used them all up. 4. Giorgio Armani Aqua di Gioia . This is my favourite perfume! and I am utterly in love with it. It is not too strong...
