Being known for it’s sprawling beaches, colorful art-deco architecture, exciting nightlife, beach clubs, and miles of cafes, shops and bars makes South Beach the place to be in Miami for those looking for a bit of a Vegas-esque beach vacation. I knew when heading to Miami that we were going to be car-less and relying on Ubers so we definitely wanted to stay in South Beach. South Beach has such a high concentration of things to see and do in a small area, and it’s easy to get around on foot. But one thing we did learn is that the…

We all have that one country we’ve visited that immediately took our hearts the moment we stepped foot in it. We fall in love with the food, the architecture, the people… the culture. It’s the kind of place that immediately feels right, like you’ve walked into a dream. For me, that’s exactly how I felt the moment I arrived in Greece. Mykonos in particular is such a fun and vibrant city that although best known for it’s party scene, has so much more to offer. I absolutely adored every second we spent on this beautiful island, and I’ve been daydreaming…

This post has been a long time coming and I honestly don’t know why it’s taken me so long to write it. Although my parents live in Edmonton, I’m lucky enough that they also own a second home in Lake Country just outside of Kelowna (in British Columbia, Canada) and I’ve spent a lot of time there over the last few years. Kelowna is absolutely stunning, and whether you’re looking to relax on the beach, spend your days boating around Lake Okanagan, hiking the many trails, or visiting some of the hundreds of wineries in that region… Kelowna has something…

Ah, Whitsundays… One of Australia’s most iconic destinations that features 74 islands surrounded by the bluest waters, whitest sands, and most lush greens you could ever see. Our stay in Whitsundays, and particularly in Airlie Beach was everything we could have dreamed of and more, and we definitely have the beautiful Peppers Airlie Beach Resort to thank for that. Here are 5 reasons why you should check out Peppers Airlie Beach next time you’re in Whitsundays! 1. The Location While Hamilton Island and it’s beaches and resorts are stunning beyond belief, it is much more economical to stay in Airlie…

Well my friends, fall is just around the corner and while I might be secretly crying inside because I’m nowhere near ready to give up summer yet… at the same time I do have to admit there’s something about fall fashion that just gets me. To me fall fashion is all about perfectly layered outfits, luxurious fur accents, comfy scarves, cute berets, and everything in between. Fall is the season where I give up my easy breezy effortless summer wardrobe of dresses and trade them in for something a little more polished, a little more put together and just a…

Ahh Montreal… what a beautiful city with such a vibrant culture, stunning architecture, amazing food scene, and just overall joie de vivre. You may be surprised to know that in the 3 years I’ve lived here in Toronto, up until July I hadn’t been to Montreal even ONCE. I know, crazy right? It’s only a quick hour flight away or a 5.5 hour drive, but somehow I never made the effort to get out there. Luckily though I managed to make up for lost time and have had the opportunity to visit Montreal twice this summer. Most recently I headed…

There’s something so personal about charm bracelets. I mean, you basically get to customize a piece of jewelry by hand selecting charms that are meaningful to you and where you are in your life; something you want to remember, qualities you attribute to yourself, your values, favourite things, or what have you. I absolutely love the concept of them and I love that you get to wear something that is meaningful, unique, and represents everything wonderful that makes up you. Recently I got the opportunity to customize my own charm bracelet thanks to Thomas Sabo in Yorkdale Mall, and it…

You might be surprised to find out that this was my first visit to Niagara Falls. Considering it’s so close (literally 2 hours away) you really would think that in the almost three years that I’ve lived here in Toronto, at some point I would have made a trip out there. To be honest, I always had the impression that Niagara was really just a super touristy town with water falls and with nothing much to do.. but boy was I wrong. While Niagara is definitely a tourist destination (and very touristy), I didn’t realize just how much there was…

Somehow it’s already been over a month since my last Instagram outfit roundup, so this one is definitely long overdue. If there’s one thing you’ll learn from this month’s round up it’s that I wear my white Aldo sandals and sunglasses literally EVERYWHERE. I guess it goes to show that when you love something it’s hard to wear anything else lol. I will say though those cat-eye sunglasses are not only super chic and on-trend right now, but incredibly affordable at only $16 a pop (link below). And the sandals are the kind of shoes you can wear all day…

A couple weeks ago I got the opportunity of a lifetime to head off to Montreal for Formula 1 with Chandon. For those of you that don’t know (shame!!) what Chandon is, it’s a delicious sparkling wine from Napa Valley under the Moet-Hennessy umbrella. I like to think of Chandon as the perfect summer sipper, but realistically it’s great year round and absolutely doesn’t require special occasion to enjoy… Although let me tell ya, there’s something about drinking it in a new city that makes it that much better! While our Montreal trip was short and sweet, we got the…
