NYFW: SS '17 Favourite shows

Wednesday, September 21, 2016

Here are a few of the shows I enjoyed from NYFW.

  I love the lines and beautiful use of colour in this collection by Jason Wu.


The whimsical look of the Zimmermann Spring collection reminded me of a modern Renaissance        look with the faux corsets and laced up boots.


I am dreaming of these slinky, bias cut dresses post-baby body (hopefully!) from Cushnie et Ochs

Surprise!

Wednesday, September 14, 2016

We are having a baby!


It was such a shock for my husband and I when we found out, but we are so excited!

One of the first questions people always ask is how did I find out I was pregnant?
I had been in a routine since we started trying to get pregnant, and calculating the days when I could take the next pregnancy test. I had had a busy weekend with family, and was not really thinking too much about it - since the result had been the same disappointment month after month. It was late Sunday afternoon and I was home alone, so I decided to take a pregnancy test (without any expectations what-so-ever!). I was beside myself when I saw those two pink lines appear... I didn't know what to think or how to react! I was so used to getting the same result, and tossing yet another pregnancy test in the trash, that second line empty. I sat on my bedroom floor and cried, then went back to the bathroom to check that the test was still positive, then just prayed and thanked God for this amazing miracle.

This is our 13 week ultrasound. I am now 15 weeks 2 days and we are looking foward to our next ultrasound (at 19 weeks) when we can find out the gender! I still can't believe this is really happening!

The 90's miniskirt

Tuesday, September 13, 2016

I can't believe all these 90's trends keep coming back. Are you over it? Or on board?
I have to admit that while I don't mind some of the styles, I have not jumped on this trend. I don't think I'll be fitting back into my denim miniskirt any time soon.

Living with Intention

Tuesday, August 16, 2016

I know, I know. I had good intentions to start blogging more regularly again, and then life happened. It seems that since the last time I posted, so much has happened!
I have been taking time to do things with more intention. I read this post and it really resonated with me and I wanted to share some tips on how you can be more intentional in your life.

5 tips for how to live with more intention:


1. Do things that make you happy
Of course there are things in life that need to get done that we don't necessarily enjoy doing, but keep a balance in your life by doing things that make you happy instead of falling into a slump of mundane daily tasks.

2. Prioritize
Choose how you spend your time wisely and prioritize what is important in your life. It's just that simple.

3. Try something new
Push yourself outside of your comfort zone to do something that you have always been afraid to do.

4. Learn a new skill
If you are like me, you may have a list of things that you have always wanted try/learn to do but keep putting it off. Be intentional about checking at least one of these items off your list. 

5. Take time for yourself
Enjoy some time away from social media and get back into your hobbies or activites, or take the day to pamper yourself and give your body time to reset.

How do you live intentionally?
