Must Have Monday- To the Max

This Must Have Monday is all about the maxi dress. I swear they are your best friend when you are pregnant in the summer. Long, cool, easy & comfortable is what I am going for. I love pairing it with heels & bold earrings for evenings. For the days I knot up the side (so I don't trip) & pair with long necklaces & mocs. You better believe that my suitcase is full of these for the wedding festivities/honeymoon. This season I chose an easy every day one, two-toned, strapless, sexy, & striped!

Feel Good Friday- Happy Bday

It has been an eventful month for my little brother. He had prom, graduated from high school, college orientation, & now his 18th birthday. I want to wish him a very special happy birthday from way up here in Quebec City. You can now play Slotsky at the Casinos & go to the bars with us in St. Maarten & Quebec :) Enjoy this time, you are finally an adult. 

 Love ya Gruff.

Moving Chaos

Moving day, well what can you say about it? It was crazy long & a lot of work. But what moving day isn't? Our day started at 7am & we finally crashed somewhere after 1am. We had such wonderful help from all of our friends & family. We greatly appreciate your patience (several Uhaul trips) & strength (appliances up 3 flights of stairs). Our condo is slowly starting to come together. Here are some pictures from the chaotic day.

Let the moving begin!

 Will it all fit? Million dollar question.

 Little closet....  lots of clothes.

 Garbage corner.

 What will be my office area.

Bear could you get off your buns and help?

Oh baby!

Big things in the works for us. New condo, wedding, & a baby :)

Must Have Monday- Naked

This Must Have Monday is the Naked 2 Palette from Urban Decay.  With much success in their first color set, many of us beauty groupies eagerly awaited the release of their second. While it took me a while to actually cave in and buy it, I must admit I am extremely happy. The second addition showcases a dozen stunning shades. The palette has matte, sparkly, light, dark, & everything in between. With this set I can say I have successfully mastered a subtle day eye & a dramatic evening look. The free lipgloss is a mauve color that doesn't sit well with me. Little bonus the cruelty-free good karma shadow/crease brush is actually phenomenal. The crease brush allows you to create a perfect cat eye liner every time & that says a lot coming from this gal with her shaky hands. 

Feel Good Friday- Happy Dad Day

I was so lucky to be home for three weeks with my fam. Unfortunately, I am not there over Father's Day. So I thought I would show my dad a little love from afar. Here are some of my favorite pictures of us together throughout the years. 
Thanks for loving & inspiring me. Happy Dad Day love ya George! 

 

 

 

 

I hope to get a really good picture of us together at the wedding. We haven't had a good one in a few years!
