One of my favourite things that is happening right now that fills my soul with sunshine and butterscotch is the trend of kids dressing like grandparents. Who saw the senior citizen sect becoming the fashion icons of the under-eighteens? Sure as heck not me. Not that I’m complaining! I am in LOVE with this look, […]
When I was 14 and graduating from junior high school, I wore what I damn well pleased. “What I damn well pleased” happened to be a slinky evening gown. It was a basic slinky evening gown, mind you, sleek and powder blue without frills. Since I was a late bloomer, I stuffed my foam bikini […]
With July 4th coming up and a summer of beachside fun ahead, there’s one thing my little girls and I can’t stop discussing: nails! Summer is a fun time to experiment and play with nail art, and nothing adds a splash to your mommy-and-me outfits like matching manicures. Some of the cutest summer nail art […]
Emotions are running high in my house this year. If one of my girls isn’t rolling her eyes, then the other one is sticking out her tongue. And, fine, I’ll admit that some of those eye rolls, deep sighs, and scowls come from me, too. But, there’s also a lot of laughing, blown kisses, and […]
I’m a fairly low-maintenance kinda gal. I like outfits with pockets, clothing items that pull double-duty from work to evening, and stuff that I can hang out with my kids in for hours on end.

Leg warmers were very popular in the 1980’s, and the trend disappeared as quickly as it caught on. But guess what? Leg warmers are BACK! And just in time for the fall weather that will arrive in a few weeks. They are cute and certainly make a fashion statement, but they have a practical use, […]
Back-to-school outfit shopping was always one of my favourite traditions as a kid, and now that I’m a mum it still is. Even though my eldest is still in preschool, we make a big ritual of picking out her back-to-school outfits together, shopping the racks at big retailers and small dot-coms alike. And even though […]
I have to admit, there are some really adorable trends from my pint-size days that are worth reliving.
Let your little one sparkle in this neutral-glitter outfit!
Super-cute preppy outfits for the mama and baby with swagger!
We are loving the less traditional colour palette for both Daughter and Mum. Both big girl style looks feature cream statement necklaces that are the icing on the cake.
