I’ve definitely gotten into a bit of a rhythm when it comes to my outfits of late. Slowly but surely, I’m outgrowing more and more pieces, which has left me with a smaller – but manageable – number of items to work with. Most days, I’m repeating something you’ve already seen. The black tiered maxi dress from Matteau which has been one of the best spring/summer wardrobe investments I’ve made recently. The Saint Laurent Nu Pieds I’m wearing above; fast shaping up to be my most worn shoe of the summer. The fitted maternity skirt I purchased early on in…
As a bit of a follow up to my update a couple days ago, I thought I’d also share a look at my pregnancy-safe beauty routine. Aside from thinking about changes to diet and potentially my wardrobe, this was the first thing I set about curating. I’ve tried to make this work hand in hand with “Project Use It Up”; or at least my efforts to reduce the number of beauty products I own, and create consistency with what I’m applying to my face. Safe to say, it’s been a total win for me, and I’ve found more than a…
It’s hard to believe that in a little under two months, Luke and I will finally be meeting our little one. Like any pregnancy, I’ve gone through my ups and downs. It’s not all roses, and growing another life inside you can be tiring, emotional, and hard. For those of you also expecting, and those of you who are just plain curious, I thought I’d share an update on how I’ve been making changes to my style, health, and general lifestyle, as well as how I’ve been preparing for baby’s impending arrival. Wearing Everlane slip dress (size US6), All Saints…
The Sezane January collection launched today, and if you’re anything like me, then you probably couldn’t resist taking a proper peek at the lookbook. You know, just in case. Despite finding the brand relatively hit or miss (you can read about my first order here and subsequent purchase here), I can’t help but get drawn into their clever marketing and beautiful imagery. Maybe I’ve spent too much time on Instagram over the weekend, but it didn’t take much to instil that sense of desire in me. The constant teasing of the new collection – and knowing how quickly they sell…
For my final 2019 wrap-up, I wanted to run through my beauty favourites; the stand out products I found best worked for my oily/combination but dehydrated complexion. Rather off-handedly, I mentioned a few times my efforts to do a bit of a “Project Use It Up” in 2019 – something I hope to continue this year. As someone who has the potential to receive so many new products, this was an important limitation for me to set in place to balance the number of beauty products entering my stash. The one place that I really noticed a difference? Skincare. More…
