When you were growing up, did you have a favourite doll? I’m not talking about a stuffed animal or a small figurine, I mean a large doll that you could dress up, play with, chat to, and style her hair? I can’t say that I did. There were variations of…

How about a little sparkle for you this Christmas season? Chrissanthi and I connected at Shopping From The Heart, in year two! Now a decade later, and we are still connected and I’m happy to say she is a friend of mine. She, like many women in business, had to…

This year has been a challenge, to say the least. As mamas, we have been doing it all. Cleaning, organizing, cooking, baking…all the while making sure our family is safe and comforted. Comfort needs to be given to you too, you deserve it. In whatever situation you are in, whether…

If you have been here before you know our family is a big fan of BOGS boots. Ever since the boys were young, they have been our go-to for every type of weather that Montreal throws at them. I never worry if they will be cold, I know they last…

Last year, Raffinalla and I teamed up to gift one lucky mama a pair of their amazing and comfortable leggings. We had so much fun with this giveaway that we’re doing it again, only this time Raffinalla wants to gift you their fantastic pants! (they are so popular they have…

Last night I had the pleasure of attending a holiday fashion event at a local gem, Lauri’s Boutique. Owner, Elizabeth Kehoe, has been in business for over 30 years but moved location less than two years ago. Her boutique is not just a clothing store, it’s an experience. Previously in…
