This Spring has been particularly rough on me. In addition to the crappy weather we’ve been living through, I haven’t felt quite like myself lately. Gaining a significant amount of weight, aging in general (I see the wrinkles settling in), and dealing with a heavy workload while taking classes for personal development, finding time to…
We have finally seen some sun and warmer days!! Although delayed, we are in the period where the days are nice and relatively warm and the evenings are still quite “fresh”. What do you wear on a Saturday night out where you want to look cute, but the weather wont let you go bare? On…
Vacations are amazing, but for some reason, regardless how long they are, once you return, the stress levels make you question whether it was worth leaving in the first place… Being back for a week, and having caught up on the 2 days of work that I’ve missed, now, it is time to catch up…
We’ve been lucky enough to have a day and a half of beautiful weather in Montreal this past weekend, and I made sure to take advantage of it as much as possible before the rain came back. One of my favorite trends that has returned is adding stripes to an outfit, so with the sunshine,…

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…
