After last week’s emotional post on motherhood, click here to read it, I wanted to end this month of love with a comfortable, fun fashion post. One of the things that I hear a lot of women mention is that they want to be comfortable in the clothes they wear.…

If you don’t know how to wear color, the easiest trick is to wear the same color from head to toe.
This isn’t only for Valentine’s Day outfits or during the holidays, in fact, this Spring we will be seeing some bold colors and even pastels in monochromatic looks (head to toe looks). I have been loving this way of wearing color and cannot wait to try wearing it in more colors this Spring.

Do you enjoy Valentine’s Day?
When I started writing this post, I thought of giving you gift ideas for Valentine’s Day. However, I soon realized that it would make it more special to find one of a kind, small businesses that have unique and fun or lovely and useful products, even better, why not start by focusing on Canadian products. I truly enjoy and happily spend hours on end searching for new products and brands that are interesting and lovely to own.
Comments closedUsually, the start of a new year has a lot of people thinking about goals, new projects and resolutions. Generally speaking, how to make this year even better than the last. Wouldn’t this also include how to create a happier environment ?
This had me thinking about an audiobook that I discovered a few months ago about raising happy kids. As a young mom, the challenge of raising children is real, even more when they are under the age of 5. So if this can help me, I hope that it can also inspire you in raising happy and confident children.
If you’ve missed it, here is another great book that I’ve talked about in a previous post about parenting.
Why is this book interesting ?!
Did you know that Denmark was voted the happiest place in the world since 1943 !!! So maybe they are doing some things right with their kids that we can also learn and apply in our lives.
As any parent knows, parenting is one of the most challenging things. So when I heard raved reviews about this parenting book on what the happiest people in the world do to raise confident and happy kids, I was very intrigued.

This place has been listed as Huffington Post’s 2017 “most beautiful beach towns in the world” as well as their 2015 “insanely beautiful small towns from around the world” list, so it’s no wonder that Sidi Bou Said was at the top of my “must visit” places while in Tunisia.

Sweater season is upon us, well at least here and for most of the country. I used to dislike winter, the cold weather, the lack of sunshine and especially the sea of black, red and grey color options in some of the stores….so to compensate I’ve tried to find ways to keep adding fun, colorful sweaters in my wardrobe, even during the winter months.
So move over black and grey sweaters, here are my top tips & picks on where you may find some great selection of colorful and classic sweaters to wear this winter.

One of the things that Kais was very adament in showing me was the South of Tunisia, more specifically a part of their desert. My only part was “yes” or “no” when he would ask me: “would you like to visit this or this?” However, I kept having this feeling that maybe it would not be a great idea going knowing that I was pregnant. After all, 38-40 degrees weather, honestly, this girl from the northern part of Canada was not great in handling very hot destinations….especially pregnant. However, in the end I gave in to my curiosity and we drove 6 hours South of Sousse to the city of Tozeur.
What is interesting about Tunisia is you have different landscapes, while the North is colder and the East Coast borders the Sea, the South is where the desert lies.

Before meeting my partner Kais, whom is originally from Tunisia, I had never heard, let alone showed any interest in visiting this country. Let’s be honest, it isn’t the most advertised country. So for the next few blog posts, I wanted to let you discover through my photos more of this beautiful country.
Let me just start by saying that if you do not know anyone in Tunisia that can be your tour guide through the city or if you do not speak the language which is arabic (a tunisian dialect), then I would definitely recommend exploring this country with organized tours. Thankfully, I had Kais who had family and friends giving us recommendations and renting a car made it incredibly easier for us to visit on our own.
Tunisia has little gems located throughout the country for tourist to discover it’s beauty.
Comments closedOne way or another we are all thinking about Fall at this time. While I am currently on vacation visiting family in Edmonton, Alberta, most of us are getting ready to go back to work, school or to slowly transition into our Fall wardrobe with temperature getting a little cooler.…

I did something that I never do …
I wore a classic button down stripe shirt. Okay, that might not seem impressive or different as stripe shirts are basically known as a must-have in everyone’s closet….well not for me!
I absolutely dislike wearing “une blouse” (in french) or the classic button-down shirt. The simple reason is
4 CommentsBaby clothes are soo darn cute !
Seriously, I have never met someone who didn’t think so. Having a baby, especially if it’s your first one, you can’t escape the monthly restocking and buying or receiving of new clothing.
Babies grow incredibly fast, well most of them, so as a parent it is fun to go shopping for new items and outfits for your kids. I always enjoyed this part as you can basically dress them and style them however you want. It is pretty much the only time that you will have this much freedom on their choice of clothing !
