You know you've had a successful ' Girls Night ' when everyone wakes up with banging headaches.


Crazy fun night with some amazing ladies! I couldn't have asked for a better group of ladies to spend my Friday night with. All of them being bloggers just icing on the cake.


From drinking champagne in Sarah from districtdamsel apartment with an amazing view to ending the night dancing to our hearts content.


I love the fact that we are so positive towards each other. There is something about being able to be yourself....your true self around fabulous women. To share your passions and your dreams without being laughed at or judged.


It was amazing as we shared the troubles that we faced with blogging and life in general. These ladies are amazing and I am so glad that they are my friends.

Empowering women say what!? I love meeting women who takes their lives by the reigns. It is always a pleasure sitting and hearing their stories. What can I say I'm a sucker for an awesome empowering story.


Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting Betsy from Zophia and Tanya from Refine. 2 different women but with a similar passion. A passion similar to my own.


Betsy from Zophia reached out to me ( after seeing my profile on instagram ) and shared a bit about what her company is about. So, of course I agree to meet her in person and I am so glad that I did. Betsy had such a presence about her that amazed me. Her one of a kind pencil skirts ( made to order ) had me in awe. I kid you guys not. They weren't your typical pencil skirts. Think of an ordinary pencil skirt with a mixture of badassery. I'm pretty sure I made that word up. LOL. I tried on the sample pencil skirt Betsy brought and I died.


Okay, you guys know me and I'm not one to wear dresses or skirts often but seeing myself in the demo pencil skirt ( pictures down below ) and I got a little excited. IT was weird seeing myself in a skirt and let alone a bright red one. Seeing how the skirt captured my curves in all the right places. I was standing there staring at myself in the mirror at all angles. It was very crazy.


I started gathering all these ideas on how I wanted to customize my own pencil skirt. Excitement isn't even the right word to use in this situation. I seriously cannot wait to get my creative juices flowing again. Can't wait to show you Lovelies the product we come up with! I also linked the website to Zophia for you guys to check out!


Now onto Tanya! She had a different out take when it came to her business. Working retail for so many year she was so ready for a change. She started her company called Refine which is a one on one shopping retail therapy. How? Well I know sometimes shopping in retail stores could be a little tiresome. Can anyone say personalized shopping? Love wine? Then you are set. I walked into the office and was met with Tanya's smiling face. She immediately offered me water or wine and told me to feel free to look around. Who am I to say no! Her selection was small BUT amazing! I was making a mental checklist as I was walking around. Definitely my kinda thing.


I styled the pencil skirt with a white ribbed tee from the shop refine store and it was so soft I have to go back and buy it! Tanya is always keeping up with the trends so you could literally find anything you need in her little store. I loved it and she played such chill music I felt like I was at home. Tanya seems to be doing well since being open since September. I want to seriously go back and play with her puppy. She was so cute.


Shopping with Tanya is by appointment only! But feel free to check out her stores instagram for some inspiration! @shoprefine!

News: With another Fashion Networking Event right around the corner. I am on the hunt for the perfect Olive Green colour. I have a few pieces in my wardrobe BUT there is something about styling a new piece that really gets me going. Whenever I go to the store and I see something I literally list out how many times and how many ways I can style it. That way I am getting more for my buck! Of course there will be photos! I will try and bring my camera this time to take waaaaay better quality photos than on my phone.


Plans: I am currently trying to plan an awesome vacation for myself. I was thinking to myself when was the last time that I took a proper vacation? Lets just say that it has been awhile. So, it is much needed. Maybe unplug from technology for awhile. A detox!


Shopping: Yesterday got a few packages with some new goodies and I honestly cannot wait to share it with you guys! Since the Spring weather is still pretty iffy....one day 70s then back to 50s I find myself reaching for a thicker coat. Le sad. I just dont want to get sick again. This dry cough is such a pain in the bum.


Watched: Honestly nothing new. I have just been watching old episodes of Running Man constantly. That show is way to funny. Whenever I need a pick me up I literally say ' yep Running Man moment '. LOL.

Accessories are a girls best friend. Hell it could possibly be a man's best friend and we not know. For me I am more of a Jacket Obsession kinda girl BUT I will say there are some accessories that make me turn my head. I find myself wanting it then thinking to myself. Where exactly will I put them? I guess it's about that time to start looking for a bigger place with le boyfriend OR finally convince him that I really need the entire walk in for my stuff. I highly doubt he will go for that BUT he did like the Floral Printed Bag so maybe I can convince him to get it for me.


That's when you know you have a problem haha.

Hello Lovelies! Welcome to Pt 2 of my Spring Wishlist Posts! Spring and Fall are my favorite seasons. Why you might ask. Well that's because it's not to hot and it's not too cold. The weather is just perfect. You can still wear light jackets or in my case very detailed Bomber Jackets and Denim Jackets. I have also recently donated over 10 pairs of shoes to Women and Children in need so I have actually somewhat been on the hunt for more shoes. Not 100% sure why though. But I have been eying the Rihanna Creepers for a while only for them to continuously be sold out. I actually wanted the black ones or the all nude ones. Seeing as though that won't be happening anytime soon I have decided to look for a dupe. I actually found a few dupes. I was very surprised when I saw them on New Look!


Also every girl needs a pair of Pointed Heels in her life. Whether it's all white, black etc is up to you.
