Holiday Giveaway: Alterre

As a girl, I am constantly worrying about shoes. I live in Toronto and let me tell me, the weather is not my friend. Recently, we've been getting these really warm days and incredibly windy nights. I am in my wool coat and warm scarf with an umbrella at all times but honestly I am lugging around too many items. Some days you really think that weather god is against you. The days I forget my umbrella at home are the typhoon days. The days I am adequately dressed with my scarf and warm jacket -- Toronto hits you like a warm summer day and I get to the office sweaty like I've been running for 30 mins.

That's just the beginning of my weather issues.

There are many days I get dressed, look great and realized -- I got no shoes that match the weather AND outfit! Especially in the winter, my choices are UGGS, rain boots or cute riding boots. All great choices but sometimes you just want to complete your look with some nice heels.

Luckily, I work close to home and I have a pretty big office space (enough for me to keep multiple pairs of shoes at work to choose from). But now my cubicle-mate doesn't have to hate me for taking up all the space with my 20 pairs of shoes at work. Don't judge, you never know when you need that right pair of shoes to sell the biggest pitch of your life.

February Addiction: TOBI

Hello all

This is the birthday month of my darling sister

so I thought, lets go fancy

We are loving TOBI

It is quite a great store, having all my fav styles

It's a great place to get party dresses

and I know it's super early for buying swimsuits but...

loving some of the swimsuits

Just a little tip

because I am in Toronto, there is some taxes for crossing boarders

apparently if you buy under $50 then taxes are much less

But just to give you a little taste...

FYI, everything is sexy

sexy dress, sexy romper, sexy jumpsuit, etc.

Taste of Honey Dress ($37)

The perfect red killer dress - every girl needs

Calypso Romper ($40)

Sexy romper when you go visit that someone special

Lone Wanderer Sweater ($25)

Sexy stay-at-home with that someone special

Wrap Me Up Jumpsuit ($37)

Sexy summer jumpsuit, great for any occasion - girls night out or in

De Philo Divergent Zip Up Jacket ($80)

Imported Goodies: Radiant Orchid

There should be no explanations

2014 will be Radiant

2014 will be Radiant Orchid

There has been so many posts

and the minute I saw this colour, I fell in love

It's perfect

Super gorgeous on so many skin tones

and just the perfect touch of girly-ness

I immediately went on Pinterest to find some options

I must have at least one item

to remember this pretty colour

and it's been a month

and I still have yet to find something great

so this month's eye candy

is clothes, shoes, makeup in this awesome colour

With graduation coming up

I honestly am looking for some gorgeous radiant orchid shoes
