Introducing the Spa Review Series!
Woooeeee!!! It has been a seriously busy past few weeks (months) for me! Flitting around from place to place not only have my weekends been booked solid (and still are!) but even my weeknights have been filled with an assortment of obligations. I want to give a shout out to some of my blogger laydeez…

Clothing Swap, FTW!
Ever been to a clothing swap? I just went to my first one ever and had a great experience! I teamed up with some fellow GTA fatshionistas from the fatshionista (plus-size fashion) community and we organized a mid-winter swap on Sunday. I think it went pretty well! We started with a brunch for the organizers…

The Outfit!
You asked for it… here’s what I wore to the xmas party last night: As you can see, I am not only short on mirrors in my apartment, but I also take horrible photos past 11pm! But this is all you’re gonna get since I don’t think I could wrangle myself into that outfit again…

Wardrobe Malfunction
We have our staff xmas party later tonight, but I’ve been wearing most of my outfit since this morning. I’m kind of regretting it. While my outfit is cute and chic, it is a royal pain to get in and out of! I’ve been holding my pee like a mofo all day to try and…

Accutane Update
This morning I paid a visit to my dermatologist for my monthly checkup. Bloodwork was good, skin was good, everything was good! It’s been 4 months and my skin is pretty much clear. There was only 1 tiny spot on my cheek that I know will go away once I put a special cream on…

The Purge Project: Makeup Drawer
This is the next installment in what I hope will be an ongoing series of decluttering, paring down and organizing my life and belongings. Earlier this week I decluttered my purse (which was very much needed!) and took a load off my shoulders. This time around I went to work on my makeup drawer *shudder*…

The Nicest Comment
I’ve been meaning to write about for this for a while, but I’ve been having quite a busy week! I wanted to talk about something just wonderful that happened to me about 2 weeks ago. I was on the subway, heading to the train station so I could go home to my parents’ for a…

It’s Pedicure Season!
The sun is out, the weather is warm and our feet are exposed to the masses. This time of year it is high season for the pedicure. Whether you prefer hot pink, French or natural, most of us are getting our hobbit feet cleaned up, if they haven’t been already! But did you bargain for…
