Love 'em or hate 'em, I think we can all agree that Uggs, at the very least, are a comfortable pair of shoes. While we all may not enjoy the look of them, they do make for a cozy slip-on. But would you ever wear them to a wedding, more specifically, your wedding? 

Most likely, you're reading this now with quite the quizzical look on your face: "Um, excuse me, did you just say,...

I am often overwhelmed by the amount of products available at the grocery store - especially all the convenience and instant versions of things. Is it really worth taking shortcuts? Or do things always taste better when you make them from scratch?

Illuminators are fabulous products. They help to give life to dull skin tone and bring a healthy shine and sparkle to your face. Back in the spring, Mandy let us all in on her lastest beauty secret for glowing skin: her Guerlain Météorites Powder. I've seen Mandy up close, so I can vouch for her choice of illuminators; the girl knows her beauty stuff. Which is why I, like many of...

It's summer season ladies and therefore prime wedding season; which means that you may be receiving some invites in the mail any time now. On the flip side, you may be one of the chicks sending out invites and 'save the date' cards.

A while back, I posted a video about the $20 makeup challenge that's been making the rounds in the YouTube world. Here's the scenario: you're traveling and your luggage has been lost (no!).  Oh, and you're also on a budget (double no!). You have $20 and $20 only to go out an purchase everything you'll need to create an acceptable look. This may not seem too...

As they say, one person's trash is another's treasure.  In my neighbourhood it is customary to leave things you no longer need at the end of your driveway for anyone to take.  It's a great way to get quality stuff for free. I've seen everything from gently used strollers to solid wood coffee tables, sofas, chairs, bicycles, books and random odds and ends. Sidebar:  I...

I mentioned in my Staff Skincare article that I, like so many people have issues with my acne prone skin. As much as I treat and take care of my skin, I still have mean little spots that like to pop up here and there and ruin my day. It's hard to pin down one or even two causes of acne because (and here's some real bad news), there are so many - especially for those with sensitive skin. I...

Is it just me or is Kate Bosworth pretty much flawless? Whenever I see her photo, I am reminded of some sort of elfin princess creature. The worst part is, I can't even hate her for it. Even her "imperfections" are perfect. 

That's why even though I kind of hate this outfit Kate's wearing in this week's yay or nay, I can't say anything bad about it.

Is it weird to wish for certain types of weather just so you can get a chance to bust out your favourite new item of clothing? 

After the first day of bright sunny weather comes around every year, I make a beeline for cute little kiosks in Toronto and snap up fun cheap and cheerful pairs of sunglasses. I'm definitely not one to splurge on glasses because A. I have a habit of losing...
