The Stream Team ( with Netflix)

Netflix canada stream team

A few years ago, my husband decided to get rid of cable. He noticed that we were barely watching TV and thought that those extra dollars could go into something else. To be honest I was not happy at first, because anyone who knows me  knows how much I love watching TV. I bet my mum would have plenty of stories to tell you about. Let’s just say this woman is not a big fan of sudden change. I am glad for once I did not resist because it was one of the best decisions at the time for our family. Read More »

11 Beautiful White Kitchen ideas

Beautiful Kitchen ideas

A white kitchen sounds like a good like a good idea right ? Ever since we’ve bought our second home 3 years ago, I’ve been thinking about remodeling our kitchen.

Although I love bright colours, there is something so simple and relaxing about white indoors. I find that it’s also easier to decorate your home when you have  just one colour all across the board. I cook a lot and to be honest, I am not sure if a white kitchen is made for that. Don’t you wish you had two kitchens in your house? One for cooking and the other one just to make the house beautiful. Read More »

I purchased this extra Long maxi dress (patterned maxi dress a few months ago during the re-opening of the H&M flagship store event in Toronto. It pains me to post pieces that have already sold out, but this dress is just too beautiful not to post about. I fell in love with everything from the prints to the length. When you’re a woman of my size and height finding extra long maxi dresses is a job of this own. The options are there, however, because of my height they always feel like ankle dresses instead of maxi dresses. Believe it or not, this beauty is a size 12. The straps can be adjusted in different ways as well. Always remember to try pieces on and not only rely on the number on the label.
