This week Fashion Magazine asked a very good question, about what colours suit your skin tone nicely. If you can’t tell, without sunshine and time to tan (with sunscreen of course) my skin becomes translucent white. Here is what I said.

I sometimes find winters in Canada really hard to get through. The short days, darkness, grey skies, salt stains, insane driving, and of course the cold, are just a few of the reasons why people struggle around this time of year. Mental health is so important to be discuss, and to know that you are never alone. There are so many Canadians who suffer from SAD (Seasonal affective disorder) which is a form of depression that occurs at a certain time of the year, usually in the winter.  Getting outside, doing things that make you happy, and even just wearing bright colours and bold prints can not only make you feel better, but also those around you. So wishing everyone a bright and wonderful last few days of January!

Summer vacation, long weekends, and evenings off in the summer are moments to enjoy. Spend these times dressing up, trying new combinations and styles. Sometimes you want to try a look for the 9-5, but are unsure if its appropriate, wearing it during your time off will allow you to see if you feel comfortable in it, and allows you the time to ask your peers if it is appropriate for your industry.
