Winter Self-Care Favorites
Hello 2022! It’s a new year, and like many people, I have made a few resolutions. I don’t always stick to them, but this year I intend on really trying. One of my resolutions is to save more money.

The RealReal: My Experience from Canada
I was never one to shop designer brands. Sure, I love looking at designer items in fashion magazines, but owning luxury items was never something I particularly thought about. I first heard about The RealReal from a Brad Mondo video, and I was curious to see what it was all about. The RealReal is an American online luxury consignment store.…
Buxom Staycation Vibes Bronzer: Rooftop Tan
I love bronzer. I don’t feel complete without it. Just a few swipes across my cheekbones, under my hairline, and down the sides of my nose really pulls my look together. Bronzer is a makeup product that lasts me a long time, normally over six months. I finally finished my drugstore bronzer a few weeks ago. As much as I…
