Because we can make a difference…

Hello Darlings,

In the midst of studying, I constantly remind myself to take the time to relax and indulge just a little. Yesterday, I not only got the opportunity to indulge but to also show my support for Canadian Cancer Society Girls Night In program by spending some much needed quality time with my mom. This amazing program focuses on funding leading-edge research for women's cancers, specifically breast, cervical, ovarian and uterine. Every little bit of support helps, so why not sign up and host your own girls night in or out! It can be as little and intimate as mine or a big fiesta...it is your choice. For more information on the program check out, Girls Night In.

Also for my fellow Torontonias, there's another great way to get involved and save a life by participating in a North York General Hospital's Underwear Affair on August 28. The mission of the Underwear Affair is to bring awareness to down there-ness and to uncover a cure for underfunded below-the-waist cancers. It is not only a great cause but also a great time. Following the 10K/5K walk is an EXPOsed Afterparty. With Love…readers can sign up for The Underwear Affair for only $15! Just enter the following discount code when registering: With Love

Regardless of the cause that you chose to support just remember that every effort courts, so please show that you care and get involved!!! Not only did I have fun expressing my support but I am back with an outfit post and seven steps to stay healthy :)

Why does it take so long to discover Confidence….

As I was trying to achieve perfectly aligned pig-tails…not too high, not too low, not too perky, but just right pig-tails, I was wondering why I wouldn’t do this when I was 16, but I do now that I am 21. Why is it that when you’re in your twenties that you begin to realize at how short life is and that not doing what you want sounds like a pretty silly idea? Yes, pig-tails are a step towards a 16 going on 22 direction, but after years of just feeling intimidated, the feeling of being able to do what you want is quite liberating. The pig-tails are not the moral of the story, I promise : P

I was just wondering about confidence and self-esteem. How come it takes us so long to realize how awesome we really are? All those years wasted feeling totally self-conscious and wanting to be in another body, one that is more “perfect”.

Free at Last…

Hello Darlings,

I am FREE AT LAST!!! YAY! Done my exams and just taking it easy for the next two or three weeks and then only time will tell! I am not the one who handles doing nothing very well, I need something do to...maybe I'm a stress-addict :P But, that is a whole different topic to explore at another time as for today I just wanted to share a quick outfit!

By the way, I must thank everyone for taking the time to tell me a little about yourselves. It is always a pleasure to get to know a little about you darlings :) So thank you!

With the Stars…

Hello Darlings,

I apologize for the lack of posts, I am still recovering and studying for my two finals, which are coming up this week. On the bright side, I am almost done…well, at least for the time being :P This hopefully will give me enough time to finally finish the “mission post” (yes, I am still sticking to the promise, which makes it that much more exciting to post about), the vlog, and of course the store. I am really excited for all of them!

The weather is continuously improving, and this year around we were blessed with many sunny and warm days. I might add, this is quite rare for Canada; it snows here in April! With the sunny weather comes the need for all things short and beautiful :P

Belated Valentine….

Hello Darlings,

Saint Valentine’s Day, although I do not love it nor hate it, I think that it is one day when you’re totally expected to be overtly cheesy. I do not like the idea of expecting grand romantic gestures from your sweetheart because that is what the rest of the world is doing. However, I do think that Valentine’s Day is awesome, as it presents an opportunity for couples to spend that extra time together and do something that is more “special”.

Romance…sure! But I still prefer the idea of fun over the idea of total lovey-dovey, overly-cheesy romance...

And Nothing to Wear…

Hello Darlings,

I hope everyone had a beautiful weekend…mine was actually quite relaxing. On Friday, Andrew and I attended a chocolate soiree (yup, our friends are amazing hosts). As usual, I was in a dilemma over everything: the shoes, the outfit, and the accessories.

“Closet full of clothes and nothing to wear.”
