It will never cease to amaze me that I can run my business anytime and anywhere with a device that fits into the palm of my hand. With the simple click of a button or swipe of a finger, the world wide web is mine to peruse. It’s how I can stay connected to all of you ♥ and collaborate with amazing companies like iDeal of Sweden.
I am married to a man who always gives more than he takes (his generosity towards others is one of the things I love most about him). It’s hard to keep up with the wonderful things that he does for me so when I saw this authentic wood watch by JORD I jumped on the chance to gift him one “just because”. I love the fact that he can pull it out for special occasions to enhance his already dignified style. I also love that I was able to engrave a special message on the back side that will make him think of me.
As promised my review of Monat is here! To be honest, it was hard to wait to share this experience with you but it was very important to me (especially as a hair stylist) that I allowed the proper amount of time needed to asses before providing you with this review of Monat. Before I really get into it I do want to state that this is MY personal experience with Monat and I can’t account for any one else’s. But I do know how I personally feel about this product and it all comes down to this…Monat has changed the relationship I have with my hair!
It was a “White Christmas” at the 2017 IP Ball! White curtains draped from ceiling to floor, crisp linen, jewels and white feather’s were only a few of the wonderful details that set this evening apart from the rest! A live musician entertained at a grand piano to a gathering of impeccably dressed men in suits and gorgeous ladies in sequin gowns! The evening included a six course meal, speeches from IP themselves and of course a lot of mingling in his and her style! This was our first time attending the Infinite Prosperity Ball (has been hosted all over the world) and hopefully not our last.
HER Style.
You voted and the majority opinion was to see me in a classic gown. This was not a hard feat as classic rings very true to my personal style. I had visions of a red dress so it felt “right” when I found this one. I absolutely love the timeless elegance of this dress. It fit my form perfectly and I love the striking slit! What really amazed me is that it required zero alteration. I had debated a sequin dress since it truly compliments the season but I was happy that I went with my instincts as I was the only lady in red and this kind of gown will never go out of style. And since my gown was a solid color I was able to incorporate some holiday sparkle with my clutch and earrings. It also gave me an excuse to purchase this tan jacket that has been on my wish list. Red and tan are one of the best color combinations in fashion if you ask me!
I thought it would be really fun to do a blog touching upon date night with my husband. Specifically my date night routine AND I am on a new hair care adventure so I wanted to share about that as well!
This lace jumpsuit for the holidays had me at first glance! It’s black with gorgeous lace detail and has the most beautiful back you have ever seen. While the jumpsuit may not be for everyone, if you want to step out of the box just a little bit in your personal style, it’s the perfect place to start. They have a certain edge and sophistication, don’t you think?
You might remember awhile back when I announced that a particular dream of mine is coming true in December? Today, I am so excited to share the details behind that announcement!!! My husband is attending a trading conference in Vancouver, BC, and I get to join him for an evening at the IP Ball! First, I am amazed that my husband initiated taking me to a ball (not the other way around, haha) and second, this is something I dreamed of since a little girl but will admit, never actually thought would happen.
Come along for a very casual tour of the CN tower with us!
Anyone who has seen a photo of Niagara Falls knows that it’s a sight to come see. The power and beauty of the Falls is as spectacular as you can imagine! Ben and I couldn’t stop snapping pictures because there was always another magnificent angle as we walked along. When we reached the top of Niagara Falls (on Canada’s side) you can see the river flowing into the waterfall. I couldn’t help feeling scared knowing that a person could jump into their death. The grandeur of it definitely puts a person in their place.
