Fashion Magazine asked what their style panel wears during road trips and since Canada Day, I’ve been living in my Canada gear. Here is my post on FashionMagazine.com.

One of my favourite trends for the spring summer season would be the 1970s. This season there are so many ways to get inspired by this fabulous decade. Fashion Magazine asked their style panel to discuss their favourite ways to style the trend. Here is what I said.
Welcome back from the holidays! Sorry that I’ve been away from the blogging action, but I was celebrating a bit too much with family and friends, sipping and snacking the holidays season away. We will soon be back into the normal swing of things, I have put myself on heavy restriction, to purchase nothing new, (unless it’s a steal) and to save for my upcoming winter get-away. We are exactly 1 month away until we hit the beach, and the goal will be to spend less time in the mall, and more time at the gym, working off that last bottle of red, enjoyed with friends.
A yearly, New Year’s Resolution for me, is to live a healthier life, and 2014, I took up the lifestyle of juicing which has introduced so many more fruits and vegetables into my life. I also created the hashtag #onawalkwiththenegins, which allowed for my Instagram followers to join my husband and I (with friends) on our walks around the city with the goal to help you get outside.
In 2015, I hope to add some more physical activities to help with having better overall balance, and learn to cook meals, which will allow for us to save money and take control of what we are putting in our bodies. I hope the last bit of 2014 is magical and that all of your dreams come true in 2015! Thanks for spending so much time with me this year!
xx.

Today marks the first sighting of snow for me, and though it didn’t last long, or stay on the ground, the fact that winter is about to hit the city of Toronto, is a frightening thought.
During the winter months, I turn to fashion to keep moods cheerful, both mine and my peers. Sometimes a playful print or bright colour can do magic to change someone’s perspective on an entire day. Animal prints are always on trend, so recently I stole my husband’s dress shirt on an extremely stressful day, which is covered in simple illustrations of Dalmatians. The playful print was the perfect comic relief to what could have been a long and daunting day.
Do you have any prints or colours that you wear to lift your spirits?

Maybe I planned my shopping list for fall better this year, or maybe, I just got lucky, but this season I’ve already fallen in love with my newest treasures from my fall haul. I searched for an easy-to-wear, oversized sweater and came up with a steal with this great knit from Joe Fresh. I’ve learned to achieve ultimate comfort, to go up a size. I was looking for unique, yet interesting jewellery, and found great treasures from Baublebar. And probably the hardest commodity to for me to choose each season are my boots, but that was simple with Topshop Canada.

When BaubleBar, my latest guilty pleasure when it comes to jewellery, teamed up Emma Roberts to work as a “guest bartender” and design a line of their affordable gems, magical things happened. Her carefree and timeless style came through with all of the coolest trends in jewels. My favourite piece from my shopping spree, are these Third Eye Jackets.

When I saw blogger beauty, Chiara Ferragni of The Blonde Salad, sporting her sports bra outside the shows during Fashion Month, I instantly got inspired to style this athletic essential trend. I fell in love with the Nike Pro Rival bra, as the high support durability and breathable fabric, make this bra look as beautiful as it fits. There is something about suiting-up, that I absolutely love. This power suit combination is just so lovely and yet strong.

Fashion Magazine asked their style panel about their September resolution. Here is what I said.
This season, matching sweater sets (tops and bottoms) are going to be huge. That look is a lot for many people so to tone down the trend look for some great knit separates that you’ll be able to pair together while shopping the new fall collections.
