Vintage Christmas Aestehtic
If I could describe our Christmas decoration aesthetic, I would say it’s a mix of Little Women meets Scandinavia. Think rustic ornaments, antique teacups, candlelit lanterns, knitted stockings, and orange slices dangling on a lit tree. The Scandinavian aspect is the simplicity of it all. Think little white houses, wooden figurines, cedar branches and embroidered […]

Easter Brunch
We hosted family brunch for Easter this year, and it was so nice to be able to do that again. I hadn’t exercised that part of my brain in so long (since planning our wedding!) so it felt nice to plan a menu and put together a table setting. If you’re well-acquainted with my blog, […]

“Quarantine Passport” Birthday Idea
It seems that everyone will get their turn at a quarantine birthday. Some may even get two as we approach the anniversary of COVID. Last February, my husband and I sat at one of his favourite restaurants to celebrate his birthday, unbeknownst to us that a looming pandemic would lock down the world a month […]

Mystical Unicorn Makeup and Costume
This Halloween was definitely a different one, but I personally think that was more of a reason to dress up and have fun, even if it’s just for a virtual Halloween party. This year, I dressed up as a unicorn. It was a fun, magical and easy to put together. There are many crafty ways […]

“Winter ONE-derland” Theme for a First Birthday
Leave it to the shortest month of the year to be packed with special occasions. Some of my most favourite people celebrated a milestone chapter in their life, succeeded a professional accomplishment, started a new job, and two very dear people to me have birthdays during this month. Basically, celebrating life is how this February […]

Maid of Honour Proposal
It’s only natural that my first blog post of 2020 would be wedding-related because…we’ve officially started planning our wedding! But even for a list-making, multitasking, detail-oriented Virgo who’s worked in the wedding industry for years and can whip up a mood board with my eyes closed…I gotta say, I’m learning a lot. Despite my “expertise” […]

Halloween Fun with The Little Mermaid
Hair spraying my hair “cartoon red” for a Cheryl Blossom costume felt familiarly nostalgic, and inspired me to go back to my original redheaded favourite. Happy Halloween! XO 🧜♀️ 🐚

Dark Moon Empress Halloween Costume
Halloween costumes are a favourite on this blog. From unicorn costumes to Ariel costumes, I always look forward to this time of the year to post about what creative direction I decided to venture into for Halloween. This year was particularly fun because I got to be in my usual colourful costumes, and I also got […]

Fiesta Decor for Taco Nights
Apparently, a game night soirée was long overdue as our friends kindly reminded us (ahem, requested). The last game night we hosted was simple and cozy: I made homemade lasagna, and red wine and Cards Against Humanity were enjoyed until the wee hours of the morning. This year we wanted to try out the game […]

Tutu Skirt Decor for a Baby’s High Chair
A couple of weeks ago, I styled the First Birthday party of my best friend’s baby daughter. There were many elements that I loved about this party, the birthday girl being the main one since she is a scrumptious little bunny doll that I wanted to smush every chance I got. Additionally to baby Chloe, […]
