Valentine's Day Edit


If you know me personally, you know that I love Valentine's Day. Always have and always will. Eeven when I didn't have someone to share it with, it always made me happy. Perhaps i was just really hopeful that I'd have someone to spend it with one day. I love the cute little cards, I love the cheesy hearts, and I love presents.

We all need a little treat on Valentine's Day, so I've put together a small edit of items that I think would be a great #treatyoself item or a page you can leave lying around for your significant other to find. Either way - happy shopping!

Currently Coveting



Since Christmas has passed, and Valentine's Day/the Husband's birthday are coming, I have been on a bit of a spending ban. I haven't bought a single items other than a pair of black jeans from AE because my old ones have a rip in the inner thighs (damn you, tuna thighs). Guys, it's been hard. I miss shopping! I think I have such a high of shopping while I was in Canada, because I'm a firm believer of living it up when you're on holiday. Now I have to deal with the sadness that is budgeting, bank account balancing, and penny pinching.

This doesn't mean that I can't dream a little, and on the "dream" list are the following:

A new iPhone case! This would go great with a new iPhone 6S, which I am still planning on getting once my contract ends in May. For the time being I'm stuck with my shitty little Nokia of a replacement phone. Sadness. But the day will come when I can get a new iPhone and I will house it in this beautiful instagram-worthy case fro Casetify - on another note, who else is obsessed with this website?

I am dying for a new work bag. I've had my current one for over two years and it is starting to look the part unfortunately. I love it because it's so roomy that I can fit my iPad, lunch, and makeup bag without having to carry around multiple bags, but it's seen better days. Plus, part of me thinks I should really stop carrying food in my purse because wow odour. This shopper bag from Accessorize is budget-friendly and cute!

Aw, these boots. You guys. These are the boots. You know when you find a pair of boots and they're on sale and they have your size and they're comfortable and cute? These are the boots. I saw them in Schuh over three weeks ago and I'm still dreaming of them. I wanted to get them after payday but I don't really need them or have the money for them in spite of them being on sale. I think these will be forever on my list of the "one that got away".

Furry pom poms! I love them on hats and keyrings. There really isn't much to say about this other than it would love oh so adorable on my new purse.

I'm following with the theme of the new purse, I also really need a new wallet. I've had my current MK wallet for over... four years. Yikes. It still looks in great condition, except for the little plaque that has been scratched to death, but at this point I'm just tired of it. It doesn't look very nice on the inside either, and I could really do with an upgrade. I love this wallet from Kate Spade.

Yes, I have been lusting for these Frends headphones for years now. Years! I saw them in Canada and they're actually cheaper for me to buy them over there, so I am thinking maybe for a birthday treat to myself I'll ask my parents to ship them over? They're just so pretty ! I had the chance to try them in a shop in Canada and they were quite good - definitely will be buying these one day.

I'd love to hear what's been on your coveted list? New clothes? New makeup?

My Christmas Wishlist

You knew this was coming, didn't you? This will probably one of the last "collage" type posts I'll do in a while, because I'm hoping to get back into blogging (and taking pictures over Christmas time!) It's simply been a little difficult, so these kind of posts are easy to get ready. Anyway, this is my Christmas wish list - and yes, I have expensive taste. It's such a problem, because I can't exactly ask for any of this, so I'll usually end up telling people I want PJs, or makeup, or anything simple.

Christmas: Boots 3 for 2 Picks


You know what everyone's favourite words are? 3 for 2, 3 for 2, 3 for 2! I swear the 3 for 2 deals need to start coming to Canada because they're so tempting and good (especially during Christmas time). Boots is pretty famous for it's 3 for 2 deals (or does it just feel like that because I'm from abroad?) and right now they have so many good gift sets/stocking stuffers for Christmas! Read below to see my favourite picks!

Sephora Wishlist: November


You know what's even better than makeup? Christmas makeup gift sets - they're always so amazing! I miss being able to walk down the aisles of Sephora and looking at all the sets that come out. I've been looking at the sets online, and I've got my eyes on a couple, along with some other things that I have been wanting to get for ages! Anyway, these are the products sitting in my Sephora shopping cart at the moment:

My Birthday Wishlist


Oh, it's been a while since I've done a wishlist post, hasn't it? Sometimes these are the best things to do to prevent yourself from shopping. Plus, I like seeing these list because that means I won't spend money on silly things and save for things I really love. Here are a few high-end products I've had on my wishlist for a while, and what better theme than my birthday? I'm turning 23 today, and I'm celebrating in sunny, beautiful Spain. The only thing that could make today any better would be to have my friends and family from Canada around me because I miss you guys so very much! (/end of cheese <3)

ASOS Summer Sale Wishlist


I don't know if you guys had heard, but ASOS is having a 50% sale on their summer clothes! It's torturous when you're suddenly on a budget and all of these beautiful summer clothes are very, very affordable. Who knows if I'll place an order, but for now I'm keeping all of these beauties on my ASOS wishlist. Better get online quickly though, because a lot of items are sold out or are only left in a couple of sizes, unfortunately.

A Sephora Wishlist


It's that time of the month again. There's only a few weeks left until I finally apply for my UK visa and it is really time for to tighten my purse strings. I have been really good at not buying anything in the last couple of weeks, except for complete necessities. I have even walked away from a fabulous drugstore makeup sale today at the pharmacy. It's no fun, but sometimes you have to prioritize, especially when you're planning on move to another country (not a cheap project to say the least).
