MMJ Additions and Transitions…

Hello Darlings,

Whew, it has been a crazy summer...full of unexpected events and never ending study sessions! As the summer is coming to a halt and I am counting down the days to my birthday...I must admit that I am looking forward to a start of a new season.

It is not only because I adore fall fashions, but because fall is a beginning of something new. It is the time to pack away summer closet and unpack the fall attire, decide on a darker and richer hue for the hair do, switch from sherbets to burgundies on your nails, tone down the pink lip color, take out the cashmere reserves, and of course step forward with booties and boots! How can it not be exciting?The beautiful coats, the stunning scarfs, a million ways to layer a cardi, the opaque tights, and of course the leather jackets! Just the thought of a beautiful fall day, with a hot coffee in hand, absorbing the last rays of sunshine, surrounded by the falling leaves and the golden colors..makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside

Because it’s Tuesday…”simply red”

Hello Darlings,

I HATE red! It's always been that way and it's quite frustrating. I've always thought that it was vulgar and obnoxiously loud. Which in some ways—when worn wrong—is true but lately I've been attracted to all things red.

Yes, including the hair color I've come to realize at how beautiful and classic it is. Although provocative in nature, red is very powerful and subdued. I just can't believe that it took me about 22 years to realize that I actually LOVE red! And because of my newly discovered passion for red.... I would like to share this stunning editorial from Harper's Bazaar!

Enjoy!

Because we can make a difference…

Hello Darlings,

In the midst of studying, I constantly remind myself to take the time to relax and indulge just a little. Yesterday, I not only got the opportunity to indulge but to also show my support for Canadian Cancer Society Girls Night In program by spending some much needed quality time with my mom. This amazing program focuses on funding leading-edge research for women's cancers, specifically breast, cervical, ovarian and uterine. Every little bit of support helps, so why not sign up and host your own girls night in or out! It can be as little and intimate as mine or a big fiesta...it is your choice. For more information on the program check out, Girls Night In.

Also for my fellow Torontonias, there's another great way to get involved and save a life by participating in a North York General Hospital's Underwear Affair on August 28. The mission of the Underwear Affair is to bring awareness to down there-ness and to uncover a cure for underfunded below-the-waist cancers. It is not only a great cause but also a great time. Following the 10K/5K walk is an EXPOsed Afterparty. With Love…readers can sign up for The Underwear Affair for only $15! Just enter the following discount code when registering: With Love

Regardless of the cause that you chose to support just remember that every effort courts, so please show that you care and get involved!!! Not only did I have fun expressing my support but I am back with an outfit post and seven steps to stay healthy

Know the size and dress for the type…

Hello Darlings,

As I've previously mentioned, I just picked a copy of Tim Gunn:A Guide to Quality, Taste and Style and found it to be quite informative. Therefore, I would like to share with you some excerpts from a section on size and body type that are quite interesting.

I've always been a firm believer in dressing to flatter your figure rather than following fashion trends and this book does a good job breaking down the elements of individual style. I think that being comfortable with oneself and making the best of what is that you were worn with is key when it comes to feeling fabulous

So without further ado...

Modern Dilemma of Flares…

Hello Darlings,

Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend As for me, I just got in from a day of successful shopping and could not be anymore excited! Besides a fact that I rediscovered my love for Burberry flairs, but also managed to score two pieces from Wilfred's Little Moon line on a wicked sale. It's amazing how little I need to feel a huge amount of happiness Just kidding, but it is true that the smallest things in life can make me ridiculously happy. Such as hearing the perfect song on the radio, coming across the cutest cafe, waking up an hour too late, managing to meditate for 30 minutes with no distractions, and of course to spend an extra minute or two with family and friends.
