It doesn't take much to get me into the spirit of Halloween considering this is my favourite holiday. I love fall, pumpkin spice, and everything spooky. The best way to get excited about the best day of the year is by watching Halloween themed movies, so I've comprised a list of my favourites. Beetlejuice If you're an adult and you've never seen Beetlejuice...

I've lived outside of Toronto for most of my life and I still feel like I tourist whenever I go down there. It's far enough that you have to make a day out of it, but there's so many things to do down there I still haven't done everything!

I feel like I'm constantly plagued with the question of what to wear. I'm always buying clothes, yet I feel like I never put together different outfits. I discovered the app Polyvore and instantly became inspired.   Everyone owns a striped shirt and a pair of jeans so this one is easy. All you have to do to make it less boring is...

To be completely honest I've never really been passionate about eating healthy and working out. I'm very laid back with those things, but I'm mentioning it to make sure you understand this is not one of those posts with healthy snack food options that are disgusting once you try them yourself. I'd never tried chickpeas before I became pescetarian but since then it's...

I've talked about how much I love highlighter many times before and up until recently I'd only ever owned one. Now that one is Mac's Mineralize Skinfinish in Lightscapade and it is well loved, but I found it was time for something new. Any time I'm looking to purchase new makeup I go to my girl Essiebutton. So many people trust her judgement...

I can count on one hand how many times I've worn dark eyeshadow. I've always been the type to throw on some brown eyeshadow and red lipstick. This look completely changed my perspective. I absolutely love such a dark shadow on my super pale skin and light blue eyes. I decided to go super dramatic for the first option since I've never worn...

All are from Forever 21 except the heart shaped ones, they're from Aldo.  Sunglasses are a summer staple for me. I adore them, but up until last year I'd only ever owned one pair. Ever since I've stocked up a little bit, and I've had to force myself to stop buying them. Though I couldn't see myself purchasing high end sunglasses. Anything more...

I recently purchased a new purse because my other one was falling apart and I picked this one from Forever 21. I was looking for one that would fit my wallet because I hate taking things out of it to put into a purse it just makes my life so disorganized.    I really like that this has two pockets so I can...

I'm loving that 'strobing' is becoming popular because who doesn't love to glow? If I don't look like I have dewdrops on my cheekbones then what's the point? I just ordered the Mary Lou Manizer by The Balm and I'm so excited to try it because I currently use Lightscapade by Mac and I've had it for years so it takes multiple applications...

I know how much everyone loves Shark Week because there's awesome shots of great whites sneaking up on seals, but did you know that 100 million sharks are killed each year for their fins? Sharks take 15+ years to reach sexual maturity, depending on how large they get (the bigger the fish the longer it takes) meaning they could go extinct in our...

I have a love-hate relationship with nail polish. I love having them painted but I hate doing them, and how fast they chip. I genuinely spend two hours painting and waiting for them to dry just for them to chip literally 6 hours later. It's. So. Frustrating. I always have my toes painted though, because for some reason nail polish on your feet...

I was always one of those people who never wore blush because my cheeks are already red so I thought it would just look worse. That was until, I was watching an Essiebutton video on YouTube (as usual) and she mentioned this one from Revlon. I've always been a fan of Revlon (except for their mascaras) so, instilling my trust in Estee and...

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Coralberry, Maybelline Brow Drama in Blonde, Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer in Chantilly  Looking at the bullet, I never expected to like this lipstick.

I went to the mall specifically because I knew The Body Shop was having a sale, and because I have no self control I stopped in Shoppers too. Jumbo Shea Body Butter, Essie Play Date, Julianne's Red by L'Oreal Paris The Body Shop's body butters were on sale for half price so I deemed it absolutely necessary that I got my hands on...

Once I got Pinterest I all of the sudden turned into this home design/decor freak. A good layout and a beautifully decorated space makes me giddy like it never has before. Is this what being an adult is like? I like a little bit of everything. I love gothic architecture, modern kitchens, bohemian living rooms...I like mixing and matching. I love white, grey...
