Hello friends! You might not know this, but I have some Irish blood in me. When I was little, my parents would take me and my sister to the St Patrick’s Day parade every year. Last year was the first St Patrick’s Day spent in my own house and I did absolutely nothing to celebrate… So this year I’ve decided…

Revlon Holochrome Collection Review
Hi loves! I recently picked up two shades from the Revlon Holochrome collection on impulse while browsing the drugstore. The gorgeous shiny packaging really caught my eye! I thought the Holochrome collection was brand new, but after a quick Google search I discovered that it was actually released last fall. So I’m a tad late, but better late than never,…
6 Years of Blogging
Hi lovelies! Today is my blog’s 6th blogiversary, and ya’ll know I had to make a cake to celebrate! I can’t believe a year has already gone by since my 5th blogiversary.

Book Review: Twelve Days of Christmas by Debbie Macomber
Hi friends! I haven’t done a book review in ages, and to be honest, it’s because I haven’t been reading a lot of books. I spend a lot of time on social media or watching Netflix, but very little time reading. I do miss it, and while I was browsing Indigo sometime this fall I came across Twelve Days of…
November: What I’ve Been Up To
Hi friends! I’ve been gone for almost a month! I used to do “What I’ve Been Up To” posts a while back and I miss them, so I figured it would be great to do one since I’ve been MIA. November was a really fun month and totally flew by. Here are some photos of what’s been going on in…

Vegan Pumpkin Ice Cream: An Amazing Autumn Dessert
Ice cream may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think about fall, but I’m an ice cream addict and I love indulging all year long. The idea for pumpkin ice cream came to me when my Mom, who is trying to cut back on dairy, made herself vegan turmeric ice cream using coconut milk and…
OOTD: Oversized Mustard Cardigan
Hello friends! How was your weekend? It was pretty cloudy this Saturday, and it’s been raining on and off all day today. To be honest, I don’t mind cloudy or rainy days in the fall, since they make me feel more cosy. I get that comfort food, warm pyjamas, fuzzy slippers feeling, ya know? Since I knew this weekend wouldn’t…
