For those of you who are just getting to know me, let me explain my day job situation. I work in an office, in sales. The dress code is not the same as a bank, but it is not casual either, which means that, aside from our casual Friday, no jeans are permitted. No rules…
Living in Montreal means you are used to heavy snow and freezing cold throughout most of the winter months, but this week was too much, even for us. Just as it was getting warmer, and the grass was starting to show, mother nature pulled a fast one on us and dumped 40 cm of snow…
For those who have read my last post, you know exactly how fed up I am of this freezing cold that we have been enduring for the last couple of weeks in Montreal. Although I am disappointed that I am not already transitioning to lighter coats and a new set of outdoor booties, I still…
For those who live in Canada or any other Nordic country, you may understand how I feel this week. We went from a balmy and rainy 12 degrees Celsius, to a frozen -27 degrees Celsius overnight. The first part of my week was exciting and motivating. It meant that spring was here and that I could…

For those who grew up in the 90’s, such as myself, the trend of layering any type of shirt under a strappy dress brings back so many pleasant memories. The fact that this trend has been back in the forefront of the fashion world since this past summer has basically meant that I got to…
A trend that has recently been back from the 90’s, and that I never thought I would sport again is the Spice Girl era “Flatform”. Now, to be honest, being 30+ years old, I did hesitate for a bit as I did have a worry that I would look a little…”retro” and maybe a bit…
