Okay, let's just get this out there and out of the way. Yes, yes I have been marking down the days on my calender until the movie Magic Mike comes out. And no, I don't think it's a bit on the creeper side. Can you really blame me for eagerly anticipating a movie that involves pretty much nothing but shirtless hotties? If you haven't heard about Magic Mike yet, then prepare to thank...
Back in January 2012, the Chick staff all wrote down their resolutions for the upcoming year. My own resolution was to take better care of myself. This wasn't exactly coming out of nowhere. Over the past few months, I had started to notice changes in my body. At first, it was just that my jeans were a little tight but before I knew it, I couldn't even get them on.
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.
The biggest wedding trend right now is to DIY it. Getting your hands a little dirty to create something beautiful and unique for your...
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...
Today was an office day so while my baby makes googly eyes at his babysitter (for real. He totally has a crush on her), I'm back in my office-y clothes working with my super awesome team. People always ask what a typical day is like for me and I feel like I should say something really impressive, but honestly, the first thing I do is check out everyone's outfits. I can't help...
Despite what I like to believe, I am not a professional model. Sadly, being only 5'5'', I lack one of the essential qualities needed to be one. I do however, get my photo taken on a regular basis here at ChickAdvisor so I do know a thing or two about being in front of the camera. I used to find getting my picture taken a huge annoyance but I've grown accustomed to pictures now and...
I saw this idea in a design magazine a year ago that I think was Canadian House & Home and it struck me as so stupid simple, even an all thumbs person like myself could do it. They used it as an accent piece in an upstairs hallway but I bought such a big piece of canvas I only had room for it in the living room.
All of the supplies were from an art store that was having a sale on...
Sponsored Obviously summer is amazing for many reasons and I'm so glad it's finally here. But with the warmer weather comes ice cream and with ice cream comes a bigger butt. Or maybe that's just me, my neighbourhood ice cream truck and my lack of self control. But no matter. We all want an enviable rear and there's no reason not to have one.
It's pouring rain today and whenever the weather is gray, I like to make indoors as cozy as possible. Luckily I'm working from home and my 4 toothed co-worker is super cute.
I was in a bit of a self-reflective mood this morning so I spent some time with spreadsheets and my old pal, the Bible. I'm one of those purpose-driven types and it's important to me to evaluate how I...
