    Stylish Sunglasses for Women from SmartBuyGlasses

    April 29, 2019 /

    Stylish sunglasses are a must for both looking good and keeping your eyes healthy. Two things that matter all year round actually. Recently I needed a high resolution business headshot to accompany a magazine feature. Simple enough, right? Wrong. I gave up on this endeavour because when I sat down to look for a high resolution headshot I realized all my photos featured me wearing ski goggles skiing or sunglasses hiking, walking, riding. Silver lining – I guess it’s good that I clearly protect my eyes all year round. Just not so great when hunting down a professional headshot. Start Your Summer in Style So in light of this minor…

    Be a Queen Every Day with Chamilia Earrings

    July 9, 2018 /

    You know how you save those pretty pieces of jewelry for a special occasion? Same can be said of the fancy shoes, the expensive purse or smartest jacket. As women, we do that. Save it for the special event, the unique opportunity to show it off. Well, what if that special occasion never comes? Or what if it doesn’t come more than four times a year? What if you are the special occasion. And life is everything every single day. Bring it every day. I mean what are you waiting for exactly? How about today? Buy something just for you, or wear it just because you are a queen. And…

    How to Save on Grad Dresses and Prom Dresses

    April 25, 2018 /

    Is it possible to save money on grad dresses or prom dresses? Absolutely. No need to break the bank just because it’s graduation time or prom time. Hard to believe, but my youngest is graduating grade eight in June. Which as we all know means shopping and potential to ruin the budget. But shopping for prom dresses and grad dresses doesn’t need to break the bank. Here’s how we saved money on grade 8 grad dresses for both of our girls. I’ve been a bargain hunter most of my life. It’s extremely rare for me to pay full price on major purchases. Negotiation is actually something I’m good at. For…

    Chamilia Releases New Stackable Rings

    January 29, 2018 /

    Chamilia has released three new stackable rings, and I’m loving them! If you read my blog at all, you’ve probably seen a few posts about this jewelry company owned by Swarovski. Their rings are always beautiful and feature beautiful Swarovski Crystal or Zirconia. That makes them glitzy, twinkly, and affordable. That’s a winning combo in my book. That’s why I’m so happy that Chamilia has release three new stackable ring designs for everyone out there to enjoy! Chamilia – Beautiful, Affordable Jewelry Chamilia was founded in 2002 in Cranston, RI, and it’s been owned in full by Swarovski since 2013. The company offers over 400 charms and a huge selection…

    Svelte Women’s Body Shaping Clothing

    May 29, 2017 /

    To be quite honest I rarely give much thought to women’s body shaping clothing. I do give consideration to clothing that looks good and feels good. Price and quality is also important. Everyone occasionally needs or wants a bit more support from their clothing. But you really don’t want to sacrifice style for a little extra lift or support. Right?   Now I am not really a subscriber to the theory that women need to hide their curves or their imperfections at all. But you do what works for you and everyone is different. Terms like muffin top kind of annoy me. If you are fit and healthy and living…

    Stylish and Safe Travel Bags for Your Next Trip

    December 23, 2016 /

    My older daughter is taking a big trip in 2017 with a youth theatre group she belongs to. This Christmas we’ve tailored a few of her presents so that she can use them when she travels. She’s already getting several travel guides and a few clothing items she needs. I think she will also be thrilled with one of these adorable Forever Young Stylish and Safe Travel Bags from Beside-U. Now, my daughter doesn’t actually know she’s getting this one for a Christmas present. This is her sister modelling it in the photo. There are so many beautiful safe travel bags from Beside-U that it’s hard to choose. I have…

    June 13, 2015 /

    June is the busiest month around here. Oh sure there’s school finishing up and the many end of year field trips and events to tend to. Then there’s my husband’s birthday, followed by our anniversary and Father’s Day. Shortly after Father’s Day, there’s Canada Day and then my one daughter’s birthday July 2nd. Finally my birthday follows the week after. WHEW! It’s easy to feel like we are eating cake all spring and summer. Not complaining, because I love cake as much as anyone else BUT there’s such a thing as too much of a good thing. This time of year, because of all the occasions we have going on,…
