Caramilk Bars and Miserable Weather ~ Everyday Summary


I found this picture of a Caramilk bar. That's pretty much it.

~For pretty much that last month of my life I have not done anything exciting. Nothing thrilling or daring or blog worthy. I went shopping a few times. Got some summer clothes (post coming up for that soon). I went look in Sephora and I couldn't believe how expensive some of the products were. 
~I am currently on Spring Break which should mean spring and flowers and sunshine but the weather has been absolutely miserable here. I was pumping myself up for this time to be all festive and in the spring spirit but it's just disgusting outside. It's foggy and raining/snowing all time and for where I live this is odd. There is NO SUN, just a ceiling of grey. 
~A couple nights ago I went to a theatre production of King Lear with my dad. Really great  except for the fact the Shakespeare kills off all of his characters in every single one of his plays. SPOILER ALERT Everyone dies except for three characters. All in all, pretty good.
It was fun to spend a night out with my "pops". 
~With all the rain and lack of sunshine I have been able to do a lot of "Spring" cleaning. Dusting, cleaning out, getting ride of stuff. This time of the year is a really good time to take inventory of everything you have and either a) throw it out b) donate it or c) keep it.
Less is more.
~Currently loving Hannah Maggs (Youtube Channel and Blog). I have been reading and watching Hannah Maggs for over a year and still love both her channel and blog! 
Currently reading The Madman's Daughter by Megan Shepherd, the first book in the trilogy. The book is terrify and creepy but also so good.

Going to go read and try to enjoy (read: deal with) the rainy weather. Really wish I had that Caramilk bar right now.

TOPSHOP at Hudson's Bay & Winter Blues

Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.-Vince Lombardi


I have not written here for a very long time. I have been really busy with just overall life stuff. And I shouldn't make excuses because, as part of a New Years "Goal", I wanted to at least write once a week so that everyone who possibly reads my blog, had something to actually read. So please accept my apology.

Ok. This post is actually about something that I am very excited about and spent all of my Saturday browsing through their online store. I watch and read a lot of British youtube channels and blogs, and EVERYONE is a huge fan of a store called TOPSHOP. I have never actually been but judging by what youtubers and bloggers wear or show in hauls, TOPSHOP is my style. 

The exciting news is that... TOPSHOP has come to North America. Now I have heard a few beauty gurus in California particularly talk about going to TOPSHOP and wearing some items from there. I always just assumed that they had gone to the UK and shopped there. But it's here!!!

So on a boring Saturday afternoon, as I was perusing the inter-webs, I found that TOPSHOP was linked to a store called Hudson's Bay (in Canada) and it was on a website. So of course I spent the rest of my day, stuck looking at amazing clothes that were literally in a store a drive away from my house. 

Here are a few of my online shopping finds. I plan on going into the store later this week so I can actually feel them in my hands. How Exciting!



Love these jeans.





This bright orange is my favourite colour 
& reminded me of summer


 A cute sunshine yellow to brighten 
up your spirits for spring time.

 A few cozy scarfs to bundle up
in what's left of winter.
 Floppy hat!


Am i the only one really excited about these clothes?

A lot of these bits  are a little over my price range and my not suite me but I just really like looking at clothes and picking out different pieces that look good together. Some of the items are a bit daring like the Wallflower print wedges and animal print shredded jeans but I think they might look really cool for summer and spring.

As it is a full on winter blizzard where I live, I am really missing and yearning for spring and summer weather. So excited for spring break and summer shopping time!
