EYE CANDY – MAKEUP I’M LOVING

EYE CANDY – MAKEUP I’M LOVING

I’m a makeup addict. I don’t like the word hoarder, I prefer: makeup collector! Yes, I had to go to Ikea last week to get a drawer unit to store my makeup palettes, nail polishes, brushes and other treasures… I love to discover & try out new things and I never leave the house without makeup or a polished nail…and FormulaX is my best friend when it comes to nails! Honestly, this is the most long lasting & fast drying nail polish I have ever used! I usually apply two coats and let it dry for about 5 minutes before…

WOMEN POWER

WOMEN POWER

All success begins with confidence. When you posses confidence, you can achieve pretty much anything! Trust me, I know. Throughout my life, I had to face many obstacles. I was not born with a silver spoon in my mouth and I had to work very hard to get to where I am today. I attribute it to my upbringing of course, my mom was a great role model, but mostly to the empowerment that confidence gave me. It has propelled me forward to obtain my CPA, CA degree (that I am proud to carry), to pursue a career in fashion like…

Dolce – a sweet event! It was my 2nd year organizing this beautiful event benefiting the Montreal Children’s Hospital Foundation and it brings joy to my heart to see it was another success!

CONTEST: SHOPPING SPREE IN COLLABORATION WITH LISE WATIER FOUNDATION & CADILLAC FAIRVIEW

Being a single mother is not easy, I know b/c I watched my mom work day and night to provide for my sister and me. She made sure we were fed, clothed, and had the best eduction. Yet, she made it look easy. She was though, independent, hard working & confident; all qualities that helped her propel forward and which she bestowed upon us. We both got educated, became independent, autonomous, & financially stable. She is my idol, my inspiration, a person I look up too & the reason the Lise Watier Foundation is important to me. It is my turn…

Is it Spring yet? So we can’t complain too much about the winter we’ve been having, it hasn’t been so bad, but with all the Spring Collections hitting the stores, I can’t help but dream of warm weather! This CALIFORNIA MOONRISE romper screams fun in the sun! Although, given its grey and black hues, it can totally be pulled off with tights, a coat, boots or booties & a hat! I can’t get over the bell sleeves; it’s going to be a bohemian summer for me, that’s for sure :) I’m a bit obsessed! Hope you guys are having a…

IT’S A HAT THING

IT’S A HAT THING

Fedoras & floppy hats. I used to have a love-hate relationships with them; I loved them on others, I hated the thought of me wearing them, until…I tired one on! Often, we don’t even dare to try things and we think we don’t like them. Also, we often assume we know this when in fact… It’s like saying: this tastes like dirt! How can you possibly know that? Have you ever dried dirt? No, it’s simply absurd! If you haven’t tried, you cannot know! So, a few months ago, I ventured into buying my 1st floppy hat…and the obsession began! I…
