For quite some time I’ve been vigilantly reading a blog I came across when clicking on link after link. I’m not exactly sure how I found it or what was posted to make me click on the RSS feed … some mysteries shouldn’t be answered 
The blog in question is by Jennifer S. called .: Earth Friendly Weddings :. I absolutely love how Jennifer keeps things light, humourous and so educational!!! Her aim is to
You may have noticed that I don’t often cruise Etsy for jewelry. It’s not that I don’t like what there is … far from it! I just don’t look at it very often as I make my own (.: old samples :.).
Some designs have been catching my eyes though so I thought I would do an accessory-themed Etsy week!
Love this idea. Vintage pieces are definitely all the rage but how about jewelry made from vintage china? These ‘matching’ necklaces are by .: TheBrokenPlate :.
Clean Our Your Shoebox!
This fall, I’m amazed at how many different shade statements the cosmetic companies are showing.
For the eyes, I’ve seen everything from reds, golds and burgundys, to smudgy shades of slate, pewter, and concrete. Soft, earthy tones never go out, and some manufacturers are creating “the smokey eye” with emeralds, coppers and gun metals.
With all these different color stories, how does any woman know which ones are best for her.
Before you go off buying the latest and greatest trends, you may want to go back to basics and see exactly what you have, what you need and what you’re not using. Whether you keep your makeup in a cosmetic bag or opt for the ever popular shoebox, think of the fall and spring seasons as ideal times to clean out, throw out and freshen up. Yup…PURGE YOUR MAKEUP BAG!
Stumbled upon some funky centrepiece ideas today so I thought I’d pass them along. You absolutely don’t have to keep your table with just flowers (it’s nice when you don’t, actually!) or if you do want flowers, there are some great ways to display them …
Last night was my first official night of minimal sleep, due to thinking about my upcoming wedding. Today marks 22 days from the “Big Day”! I kept tossing and turning, waking up, and having a difficult time falling back to sleep. When I was sleeping, I was dreaming about the wedding, but don’t ask me what I dreamt about, because I honestly cannot remember.
Every bride out there dreams about her wedding. Hmmm, let me rephrase that. Every bride out there dreams about what can go wrong with her wedding. Yes, that’s more accurate. And every bride out there can confirm that we call these dreams “Weddingmares”! I thought today I would share some of mine with you 
Registering for your wedding gifts can be daunting. Many couples head of to HBC (no offense), grab the scanner and start aimlessly picking objects just to get it done. Fear not … there are options out there! I’m talking about other big department stores, either. In fact, I’m going to completely shift the focus over to eco-conscious ways to register.
There are many stores in the GTA where you can register for linens, bath items, candles and even furniture and they’re environmentally friendly. A great one is called .: Organic Lifestyle :. located in the heart of Yorkville.
As I said last week, guys can surprise you. They will have opinions on things that you’d never expect and then be completely unconcerned about other issues.
The wedding dress is one of those things. I never expected MM to care much about what I’d wear, short of seeing me in some sort of dress on The Day. Being a typical Canadian guy, I didn’t think MM would really have many opinions one way or another of how I should look.
Yet again, I was wrong.
It’s my favourite season! Minus the havoc it wreaks on my sinuses, that is.
With the chill in the air, I was inspired to find Etsy goodies all about material. Some won’t keep you warm all day but they’re sure to delight just the same
This shawl by .: Ellita :. may be for summer but what a great colour for all of you autumn brides!
Yesterday was my 30th birthday, and I have to admit, it was probably my best yet! It was a smaller celebration than usual, but much more meaningful. If you’re keen on your astrology knowledge, you’d realize that I’m a Virgo, which brings me to the topic of today’s post.
I’m a Virgo, through and through. Just to give you an idea, let’s analyze the traits of a Virgo.
