  • SEIZE (or ZZZs) THE DAY // I remember wishing for more lazy days in PJs especially when life got busy outside the home. Who knew that wish could come true and become a reality today...⠀ ⠀ Staying home may be the new normal but lazy days in PJs doesn’t have to be. Now more than ever I need to focus, be productive and support others from home. Getting dressed and putting on a touch of makeup helps me reset and gives me the motivation and energy to seize the day! What are you doing to avoid lay-zzz days at home?⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #socialdistancing #selfisolation #homevibes #safeathome #alonetogether #togetherapart #hunkerdown #newnormal #findthegood #wegotthis #stayhealthy #beststartoftheday #positivevibes #positivemindset #staypositive #believeinyou #motivateyourself #reachyourgoals #focusonyourgoals #itsyourlife #yourlifeyourway #selfvalue #youhavethepower #timetoshine #lifestyleblogger #lifestyleblog #styleblogger #bloggerlife #influencerstyle #chicstylingslifestyle
  • Screen time is through the roof in our household with hubby and I working, kids studying-writing university exams, and all our binge watching. While I'm grateful we can stay digitally-connected for work, school, news, entertainment and socializing, my headache is telling me I desperately need some screen-distancing! How are you taking breaks from your screens while staying at home?⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #socialdistancing #selfisolation #letstayathome #homevibes #safeathome #alonetogether #togetherapart #hunkerdown #doingourpart #weareallinthistogether #newnormal #findthegood #wegotthis #stayhealthy #stopthespread #goodhygiene #sanitize #keepcalmandwashyourhands #takecareofeachother #keephealthy #flattenthecurve #covid19 #stayhealthymyfriends #healthymind #mindfulliving #mindfullife #mindfulmoments #wellbeing #livewell #mindful
  • GREEN // Not just a color to wear today ☘️, but a color being FELT by many as of late...⠀ ⠀ Willingness to comply, adapt, and support our ever-changing environment has never been more important than it is now. We all have a part to play, and the decisions we make can affect others, even if you yourself are not vulnerable. Together we can get through this if we all stay positive, stay responsible, and stay supportive! ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #stayhealthy #stopthespread #goodhygiene #sanitize #keepcalmandwashyourhands #takecareofeachother #staysafe #keephealthy #flattenthecurve #covid19 #socialdistance #stayhealthymyfriends #healthymind #mindfulliving #mindfullife #mindfulmoments #wellbeing #livewell #mindful #beresponsible #besafe #stpattysday #stpats #chanel19 #zara
  • Does rescuing a Belgian Waffle buried beneath proscuitto, apple, dates, greens, and balsamic drizzle count as being a hero?

  • MINDFULNESS // With all that's going on around the world lately (aka Coronavirus COVID-19), its hard to know what to believe or how to react ... To wear or not to wear a mask; to overbuy or not to stock up in toilet paper; to travel or cancel a vacay; to work from home or not. Perhaps there's no right or wrong answer but to just let mindfulness guide us and I love the below quote as a reminder of this. What are your views and how are you reacting?⠀ ⠀ "Mindfulness is being aware of what is happening right now without wishing it was different. Enjoying the pleasant without holding on when it changes. Being with the unpleasant without fearing it will always be this way..." J.Baraz⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #beststartoftheday #positivevibes #positivemindset #staypositive #believeinyou #motivateyourself #reachyourgoals #focusonyourgoals #itsyourlife #yourlifeyourway #selfvalue #youhavethepower #timetoshine #lifestyleblogger #lifestyleblog #styleblogger #bloggerlife #influencerstyle #chicstylingslifestyle

  • 30 YEARS AGO // I started my career in the offices at @Bankershallyyc when @Sunterramarket first opened. Fast forward to today, I am still an office tenant and avid customer, so I am thrilled to celebrate along with Sunterra's 30 year birthday and re-opening of its space this week.⠀ ⠀ @Sunterramarket has been completely re-designed, rejuvenated, and has doubled in space.⠀ New & Enhanced offerings include:⠀ 1. Larger salad bar.⠀ 2. Made-to-order pizzas in a new forno from Italy.⠀ 3. New coffee & drinks bar.⠀ 4. Made-from-scratch fresh pasta⠀ 5. Rotisserie meats.⠀ 6. Piadina thin-crust sandwiches.⠀ 7. Grab & go options⠀ 8. On-line grocery order pickups.⠀ ⠀ Come say hi when you check it out for yourself - chances are you will find me hanging out in this new and more functional space at any point in my work day!⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #downtowncalgary #calgarybuzz #yyclocal #dailyhiveyyc #calgaryism #canadaeats #foodiegram #foodpic #tasty #yyceats #calgaryeats #calgaryfood #yycfood #yycfoodie #calgaryfoodie #foodinfluencer #yycnow #dishedcalgary #yycliving #narcitycalgary #yycfoodies #feedfeed #foodstyling #instafoodies #huffposttaste #chicstylingslifestyle
