I figured that since my July favourites are exactly the same as last month, I thought I try going back to my Five Faves posts again for months like these. INDIGO WORK-FOLIO: -Great for jotting down ideas & lists, I'm a huge list maker. -Love the pastel colours. NARS ORGASM BLUSH: -Such an iconic blush shade. -My favourite blush that I always go back to. -Love the shimmer in it. HAWAIIAN TROPIC DUO DEFENCE SUNSCREEN: -Smells amazing! -I love how it sinks into the skin so quickly, usually I prefer spray spfs cause they dry fast -Very moisturizing. (image from google) COMEDIANS IN CARS GETTING COFFEE: -I have been obsessed with the show this month! Fyi season 5 just dropped on Netflix!! -I love the way Jerry interviews his guest, very natural, of course funny and you learn all about these amazing cars he drives in the show. -Jerry picks a different car for his guest every episode based on that guests personality. -Fact about me, I love cars! Can't wait to check out the Nordstrom anniversary Sale (it's no FINALLY open to the public) I'll instagram story from there so make sure your following me! Have a wonderful weekend guys xoxo

My mom had last week off from work; great to spend some time together as a family. On the Tuesday we spent the day with her friend and her adorable son, the perfect day for shopping and walking around outside at Don Mills. Then on the Thursday my Uncle took my sister, mom and I to Wasaga beach for the day, such a relaxing and fun day! I have so many great memories from being at that beach every summer with my Uncle and Aunt before she passed from cancer.
Here are a few of the things on my list to tackle this season…
