Tonight’s post is a something a little bit different — I’m sharing my Sober September experience. September has always signified a fresh start for me, so I decided to completely cut out alcohol last month to help me refresh, reenergize and focus on setting goals for the rest of 2015. While I totally love wine and could never give it up permanently, I took September as an opportunity to reevaluate my relationship with alcohol and be ultra productive! If you’re curious about what I accomplished, or are thinking about trying a sober month yourself (Sober October has a nice ring to it!), check it out.

BEST IN BEAUTY | JULY 2015
July was the month of lip products! I wore lots of different lip colours last month and generally kept things light on the eyes — one of my favourite summer looks is a bright lip with a simple eye and winger liner. Most of my favourite products last month were things that I’ve loved for a long time and rediscovered, or products I’ve rotated in for the summer because they contain SPF (try to get your SPF in wherever you can, ladies!).
I also stumbled on a couple of new products — one extremely beautiful highlighter, and a limited edition edition lipstick exclusively for Canadians that smells and tastes like Maple syrup! Cozy up with me on this stormy night in Calgary and let’s chat beauty!
Summer is here and I’ve been rocking a bit of a sun-kissed glow lately… that isn’t actually from the sun at all. Today I’m sharing how to get a gorgeous summer glow using sunless tanning products! As a half-Irish girl, I’ve learned a lot about self tanning over the years — any colour I have comes from a bottle, not the sun. I’m also sharing a couple of my favourite SPF products today. So kick back, whip yourself up a tropical cocktail and let’s chat about safe sunless tanning (and some cute bikinis)!
