Back at in September, I won a free "do-anything-you-want-with-your-hair" from a salon. Suggestions included a cut and dye, but I'm an actor and I prefer for my hair to remain its natural colour, so instead, in late October, I went and got a perm. I had never before dyed or permed my hair, and it … Continue reading I Got My Hair Permed
Workouts That Work
I've been trying out different ways of working out recently. The gym doesn't work for me. I go there, I watch Netflix on the elliptical for an hour, do a few floor exercises that I do at home anyway, and I leave. It's not fun for me, I don't see any progress, and I'm probably … Continue reading Workouts That Work
My Trinket Wall
This is sort of a continuation of my last post, Room Makeover: A Personal Touch. So check that out first, if you want. Since I first left for England for university, before I even began this blog, I've kept little things. When I started, I thought I might scrapbook them or something, but turns out … Continue reading My Trinket Wall
Room Makeover: A Personal Touch
When I last updated you guys on my room at my mom's, it was in this post. Well, I've made a few changes since, and I think this is as close to done as it'll ever get. And you know what? I like it. For my workspace, I got my desk from Ikea during their … Continue reading Room Makeover: A Personal Touch
Outfit of the Week: BossLady
They say you gotta dress for the job you want, so when I went to the job fair that ended up leading to my new job, I took that to heart. This is what I wore: That's me trying really hard to look good with all my makeup rubbed off from the course of the … Continue reading Outfit of the Week: BossLady
Montreal Lox Bagel
If you've been around long enough to remember my trip to Montreal in 2017 (or click here if you haven't), you might remember me raving about the bagels I had at a Montreal bagel institution. I went there twice for bagels over the course of my trip, once to sit in, once to go, because … Continue reading Montreal Lox Bagel
Room Makeovers Without Money
I recently read a great article "Minimalism is Just Another Boring Product Wealthy People Can Buy" which raised some great points about how minimalism and nice decor are out of reach for most people, and it got me thinking. The rooms and dorm rooms I've decorated over the last five years, could I have done … Continue reading Room Makeovers Without Money
Winter 2018 Makeup Haul
This haul is a collection of makeup I've accrued since Christmas. Some were gifts, some I bought for myself. Some I love, some not so much. NARS Concealer This was just a replacement of my emptied one. I've tried other concealers but always end up coming back to this. NYX Liquid Suede Lipstick in Black … Continue reading Winter 2018 Makeup Haul
Outfit of the Week: Bodysuit Bombshell
Calgary has found itself in another deep freeze. January can be dreary like that. I think one of the best ways to beat the dreariness is by looking good. I subscribe to the idea that if you look good, you feel good. So in cold weather, what better way to stay warm than to look smoking … Continue reading Outfit of the Week: Bodysuit Bombshell
Winter 2017 Makeup Haul
It's officially winter (apparently it wasn't before) and I have for you all a long-awaited, kind of late, (but worth it!) winter makeup haul. This has a mix of free samples, drugstore products, and Sephora products. Starting off with the free samples, I got three with my Sephora order. The first sample was the Black … Continue reading Winter 2017 Makeup Haul
