GRAFFITI

GRAFFITI

LOVE. THIS. DRESS. I wore it today to work and I never got so many compliments ;) It’s great for winter, given the long sleeves and the black & white color combo, but since black & white will be in style this spring as well, it’s great for both seasons! Today, I took my own pictures, using a tripod. They are not as nice as when my photographer takes them, but I did my best! (Btw, I suggest you girls check him out if you’re looking for a photographer for a special photo shoot or event: https://www.facebook.com/sebphotos) Happy Monday ladies!…

MIKASA

MIKASA

If you’re looking for a cool spot for sushi, be sure to make a stop at Mikasa. The restaurant has 6 different locations across Montreal & Laval, refer to the following website to find the one that suits you best: http://mikasasushibar.ca/ I’ve been to the one in Laval & the one on Acadie – the atmosphere is great; awesome for a date, as the lights are dim & the setting is romantic. If you’re a group, they also have private rooms. As far as food goes, it’s delicious, but it’s quite expensive. I tried various types of sushi & sashimi & everything tasted…

RESOLUTION: SAVE $$$

RESOLUTION: SAVE $$$

We all made lots of resolutions for 2014 & I am sure most of us made this one: SAVE MONEY (or something along those lines). But have you set a fixed plan on how to achieve this goal? I’m going to be quite honest, this is one of my resolutions as well, but it was only this weekend that I drew up a plan on how to make this happen & I thought it would be a good idea to share it with you girls to help you out with this resolution. Tip #1: Set a budget & stick to it! First, make a list of all the…

COBALT BLAZER

COBALT BLAZER

No matter how relaxed your outfit is, a chic blazer can instantaneously dress it up. This cobalt blazer suits every skin tone & can be paired with blue, white, black or grey jeans as well as trousers. I was lucky to get this blazer at Mango for half the price at the sale they held prior to Christmas. This outfit can be put together with leopard flats during the spring or with thigh high boots for winter. I think every girl should have a blazer in her closet, in whichever color you like :) Great for work or play! Happy…

POP OF COLOR

POP OF COLOR

  A bright red clutch like this can give life to any outfit. I instantly fell in love with it when I saw it at the Michael Kors outlet at the Woodburry Common Outlets. Pairing a chunky sweater with a leather skirt has been big this season and I took full advantage of it. I also absolutely love the boots I found at Zara during the after Christmas sales. They were originally $119, but I paid $49, and I couldn’t believe it when I found them in my size. I usually supplement my closet during sales time, especially with timeless pieces,…

BANGKOK EXPRESS

BANGKOK EXPRESS

  If you like Asian food, you’re in for a treat! Bangkok Express restaurant located at 5645 Monkland street is amazing. The food is absolutely delicious and most plates are under $10. I tried the crispy noodles with chicken, shrimp & vegetables (featured in the picture above) and I can honestly say that it was the best crispy noodles plate I have eaten in Montreal, and I am a huge fan of Asian food in general. Paired with a Tsingtao beer, you have a perfect Friday night outing! I would rate this restaurant 10/10. Hope you girls like it!
