My name is Celia and I am a bubbly and chatty 33-year-old living in Toronto. I am an elementary school teacher in Toronto's East end.

In my spare time (when I'm not obsessively reading ChickAdvisor) I like to read, write, craft, watch movies and bake. I am also completely obsessed with yoga. I have never been a party girl, and am a bit of a homebody. My idea of a great Saturday night is watching movies and consuming mass amounts of popcorn.

I also love shopping (you can never have enough shoes, or purses ... or lip glosses .... or nail polishes .... or lotions .... haha ) When it comes to beauty products I love trying new make-up and experimenting with different nail looks. I've heard that manicured nails are the new handbags in terms of accessories and for me that is definitely true. This passion has led me to become a consultant for Jamberry Nails.

I am also an obsessive moisturizer. My sister even jokingly calls me "slippery" because of my ridiculous addiction to having lotion on my skin!

I have a particular love for vintage shopping and clothing swaps. This goes along with my love of a great deal (hence my love of Winners). Many people find these things to be too tedious but finding a great original piece for a great price (or in the case of clothes swaps, even NO MONEY at all) is what I live for.

I have grown up in the GTA and love it here but part of my heart belongs to Montreal where I lived briefly a few summers ago. Travelling is one of my newfound passions and I hope to do as much of it as possible in my life. So far I have visited many places in Canada, The US, Caribbean, Europe and even have been to Egypt.

I am newly married and a recent vegetarian. We have 3 fur babies; two guinea pigs and a rescue dog. I love meeting new people and trying new things. Read my reviews. Enjoy!

Hi Gorgeous! I'm glad you're enjoying the Beauty School series. You can be my model any day : ) Hhaha it's not creepy at all, I do that same too. The nail polish i'm wearing is called You Don't Know Jacques by OPI. When i first wore it, I did not like it at all, I have olive skin tone and there's a muddy green undertone that made me look really weird! But i discovered that if I put on a matte topcoat, it makes it nicer against my skin tone. If you don't want to fuss with top coats, I'd recommend Over the Taupe by OPI. It's a lighter version of the other one and it's much more wearable. In fact, I'm wearing it right now. I've been to the drugstore recently and saw a lot of similar polishes by Sally Hansen and Revlon. Let me know which one you decide on!

Hey Girl! I know Joe Fresh socks are the greatest ever. I'm a bit fanatical about them. The tights on the other hand? The tights let me down. Big time. I just bought a couple of different ones and the waist band was HUUUGE when I put them on despite getting them in my size. I can hardly keep them up and you can see the bulge when I wear a tighter dress. Not impressed. Will stick to the socks. And the slippers. The slippers rock!

Hi Curlysue10!
Thanks for your question :) Hmmm, I'm not sure but the Celebutante kit might be exclusive to places like Sephora, Holts and The Bay. Have you tried Murale? Your Optimum points still count there and as a higher end store of Shoppers they probably have the palette...Did you ask the Shoppers Beauty Boutiques if they are just out of stock or if they carry it at all? Anyways, if they don't you should check out Murale if you are in the Toronto area. Hope that helps!


 Thank You

I finished reading it .... and now i want to read Something Blue!!!! :( I was going to buy it today, but instead i'm reading "love the one you're with" first ... once I'm done this I'll buy Something Blue.

Man i want to review, analyze, discuss, and pick at "something borrowed" soooo much!!! I hope it comes up as one of the books for our book club....

I can't resist, I have to ask; what did you think of dex? I actually didn't like im.. the entire time I was expecting him to be another "Tim" (a la "i'll have who shes having").
 Thank You
