How to Get a Hotel Bed Feeling at Home

I know I’m getting older now that I love buying home decor, trash cans, groceries and most of all… BEDDING! There is no better relaxing feeling than slipping into a crisp, clean hotel bed. The sheets feel so silky and soft, and the pillows are always a dream to lay your head on each night of your stay.

I wanted so badly to be able to replicate this comfort at home, but I didn’t want to pay…

Recipe: Tomato Basil Soup

I know this probably sounds like the most basic recipe ever; because it is. I honestly don’t have the time or patience to chop a million ingredients and spend a day making soup. Tomato soup is such a classic, but a lot of canned soups have unnecessary added sugars and salt.

I genuinely enjoyed making this soup, and I think it is a great staple meal that you can quickly cooked any night of the…

1. Listen to Music & Podcasts

My Invisalign Experince

Long story short when I was in high school I had braces, then got my retainer, and then didn’t wear it. BIG MISTAKE!

Looking back I should have been more responsible and wore my retainer but myself and my wallet learned the hard way. My teeth started to shift and the gap between my two front teeth was beginning to bother me.

I want to start by saying that my teeth weren’t the worst, but I…

The Best At-Home Gel Manicure

Hate when your nails chip? Read my new blog post all about my favourite At-Home Gel Manicure Kit!

I love a good manicure but they can be pricey depending on how often you go. Doing my nails at home has saved me between $30-$50 a month. However, most nail polishes won’t last you more than a few days before you start to see it chip.

Having my nails shiny and chip-free is a must. I love the look of gel polish so I decided to invest in my own gel manicure kit! I looked at some reviews online and…

A Day Date in Halifax

Need a cute date idea? Check out my NEW blog post!

Recently my boyfriend surprised me with an adorable day date in Halifax! We parked at the waterfront and walked to Rousseau Chocolatier on South St. It is the cutest shop and it is so bright and refreshing! Everything looked so delicious so we decided to try their soft serve and it was to DIE for. The shop was so eye pleasing and their atheistic was on point! I would 100% recommend stopping in…

My First Fab Fit Fun Box | Is It Worth It?

I’ve always seen posts or videos of other girls showing what they got in their Fab Fit Fun box, but it took me forever to actually commit to buying one! After seeing what might be in the summer box I decided to give it a try! I have to say I’m pretty happy with everything that I got. It came with two face products (a peel and an exfoliator), organic sunscreen, jewelry tray, highlighter…
