Happy Friday!! It’s a long weekend (in Canada at least)…yay!!! Man oh man, I’m pretty sure this was the longest week of my life. Between a crazy work load and dealing with mortgage brokers, realtors and difficult builders, let me tell you I have earned this weekend. I’m heading up north to a friend’s cabin and I can’t wait. Anybody have fun plans for Canada Day? Below are my favourite pins as of late:

Happy almost Canada Day! Show your love for all things Canadiana this weekend in an outfit that is both stylish and comfortable. After all, no one wants to run around the lake or an outdoor party in heels and a mini dress!
With summer in full force and the Canada Day long-weekend right around the corner, I thought I would share 10 summer looks I’m loving right now with you. What’s your favourite outfit?
Happy Friday. If the rain hold out (fingers crossed), I’ve got a fun weekend planned, complete with food trucks, fashion shows, wine bars and block parties. Anybody have fun weekend plans?? In the meantime, here’s my favourite pins this week:

Today’s Travel Tuesday post is another one about somewhere I want to go. I have not had the luxury of visiting Bora Bora yet, but you can bet your ass I will get there one day. No matter the cost (there’s still a black market for organs right?). Have you ever seen a more magical, beautiful or romantic looking place? Sigh. I could look at photos of this island all day. Has anyone been? Is it as gorgeous as the photos look?
Bora Bora is a French Polynesian island in the Pacific Ocean. It is located about 230 kilometers northwest of Papeete and is surrounded by a lagoon and a barrier reef. In the center of the island are the remnants of an extinct volcano rising to two peaks, Mount Pahia and Mount Otemanu.
Pora Pora – the ancient name, meaning “first born,” came from legends describing this as the first island to rise when Taaroa, the supreme god, fished it out of the waters after the mythical creation of Havai’i, now known as Raiatea. Although the first letter “B” does not exist in the Tahitian language, when Captain Cook first heard the name he mistook the softened sound of the Tahitian “P” for “B” and called the island Bola Bola.
Perfect white-sand beaches give way to emerald waters where colored fish animate the coral gardens as they greet the giant manta rays. This could be easily be described as the center of the romantic universe, where luxury resorts and spas dot the island with overwater bungalows, thatched roof villas and fabled ambience.
Bora Bora offers:
Last night was the 2012 MTV Movie Awards and overall, most of the celebrities in attendance looked nice. Nice, not great. Below, are my favourite looks of the night.
Kate Beckinsale in Dolce & Gabbana (does she ever not look gorgeous!)
Mila Kunis in Fendi
Ellie Kemper in Dolce & Gabbana
Hey guys, happy Friday! Sorry I haven’t been posting much lately. My life is crazy busy right now. Work has picked up a ton and I’m in the process of buying a house, so between realtor appointments and house viewings, I really don’t have time for much else. On a positive note, the weather looks like it’s going to be great this weekend, I have a hair appointment tomorrow and I have a dinner reservation at Corso 32 with the BF (we made this reservation 2 months ago…that’s how long it took to get a 7 pm rezo on a Saturday night!). I hope everyone’s weekend looks as promising as mine; in the meantime, here are my favourite Pins from the past week:
Favourite dress
Best hair
Favourite photo
Cute party food idea (raw bar)
Gorgeous shoes
