You Are What You Eat

For all the junk food lovers, use this chart as a reminder to make better choices that serve your body better!

As students, parents, young professionals and foodies on the go sometimes we don't always have the time to properly plan our meals but a little effort goes a long way. Cut out an unhealthy snack here, use less sugar there, pick a healthier alternative in between and its those small changes that make the difference along the way. For myself I've started replacing sugary beverages with water, it takes some getting used to but healthier food habits start small and go a long way.

Balloon Wall

I'm obsessed with all things decor- including event decor of course. I came across this picture of a balloon wall backdrop for a party. I haven't perfected mine as yet but I think they used something wired like for the support and tied the balloons onto it, cause I'm pretty sure gluing wouldn't work for this one. What do you guys think? Would you use this type of backdrop for your next event?

Snow Day

I was so suprised to find out this morning that my school had issued a snow day all classes canceled all day!

I figured that school would still be open but I guess considering the rain/snow was turning into ice (check out the pic below) I guess it pretty dangerous when I think about it.

So...what to do with this day off of work & school? I've had such a busy week I think I'll just catch up on some sleep and watch some fashion shows I havent gotten a chance to.

For those that have a day off as well?! What are you going to be up to today?

New Favourite Artist Alert

I came across the artwork of Sara Golish while looking for new artwork for my dining room and her work is flawless and absolutely realistic. What caught my eye is the level of realism in her work so much so that most of the work actually looks like printed photographs, Sara is also Canadian and based in Toronto. Her artwork has an afrofuturism focus and is done so beautifully. Check out her work below & don't forget to comment your favourites.

Pink Bathroom for Spring!

I've always loved the idea of having a really girly bathroom (in addition to have a regular one of course) and since I moved last year I decided that I would finally have my pink bathroom. Other than purchasing a few wall art, rugs and a matching Paris-couture vanity shower curtain I haven't done much. My bathroom makeover will be my spring decor project. I'll add a splash of colour I'm thinking something blush pink I'm going to stay away from the bold magenta-fuchsia type pinks for the guys sake, But I'd definitely be changing my mirrors and adding some new lighting. I haven't taken any flicks to show where I'm starting from but I'll do an update post next week to show the process. These are the inspirations below, what colour related decor ideas do you have  for the new season?

I love these shades of blush pink
 This shape of this mirror is perfect for my theme

Thursdays Are For Nails

For years I literally only did white nail polish on both my hands and feet it really wasn't until the last lil bit Ive been doing a splash of colour here and there, for me I don't need or have to go to a salon because I'm pretty pro at self manicures. Its more of the pampering feeling of treating myself and a time to relax and catch up with my awesome nail tech Tamara (of Kara Nail N Spa in Toronto). So ladies how often do you get yours done and what's the latest nail trends out there? {Post Reply in Comments}
