ST-TROPEZ SELF TAN BRONZING LOTION

  Summer is sadly coming to an end & so it that gorgeous summer tan! My skin color is naturally pearl white, but with heavy skin conditioning through trips to the South, it gained a little bit of color, yet still turns pale & pasty in the winter. I’m sure a lot of you ladies can relate to this, especially if you live in the rough Montreal weather. If you want to hold on to that summer glow into fall and winter, I have a solution! In my youth, I liked tanning salons, but as I got older, I realized…

So easy to carry around and my back is so thankful! This season is all about…

Distressed denim – how I love thee! This is probably my favourite trend & the more distressed the better. I got these jeans at Zara and I found them stunning, but the holes were all patched up – not distressed enough. Since they fit perfectly, I got them and made them even more ‘perfect’ by over ripping the slit on the right knee. Perfection! Distressed jeans go with anything. This time I paired them with this blush #fashion code tee. This tee fits into the winter pastel trend & it’s my favourite graphic. I bought it at the same time as…
