Last week I received a text from a friend – she had seen my picture in Glow Magazine. I was so excited that my Clairol #shiftashade experience was printed in a full page feature (page 59 here)…I can’t wait to get hold of a print copy!
We recently returned from a mini-break to Muskoka – it was quite a change from our visit in the summer! We had so much fun playing outside and learning how to snow-shoe. By the way, my H&M crossbody bag is going strong 4 years later – it was the perfect bag to take outdoors: it kept my cellphone safe and I didn’t have to worry about it getting ruined.
Speaking of old favorites, I’m still loving my Old Navy fox sweater!

Since I can’t stop wearing plaid blanket scarves, I’ve added this new one to my collection. When I’m not wearing them around my neck, I like to fold them in half and wear them as shawls.

Another recent arrival is this stunning metallic necklace from Pink Lovebird – I love pairing it with my new metallic heels!

Speaking of shoes – I’m desperately stocking up on all the Target goodies I can find before they leave Canada (sob, sob…I’m still sad about this!) I think the cap-toe espadrilles will be especially popular this summer – they’re very Chanel-inspired! I’m also keeping an eye out for these gold glitter sandals – they’re SO beautiful!

Do you have any bargain favorites that are still going strong – like my H&M bag?
UPDATE: Hubby picked up 2 copies of GLOW magazine:
Linking up with More Pieces of Me and On the Daily Express.
Well done for your magazine entry. I also love your white blouse in the outfit shots. Mrs in London | lifestyle | fashion | travel
Thanks!
That is so funny that you were in a FULL page magazine spread and you didn't even know it!! (In a Portofino shirt no less!) I always loooove your outfit recaps! I just can't get enough of your classy style.Gina – On the Daily Express
I know! It was the best surprise ever 🙂 I'd been asked previously if I'd be open to having my picture used in a print feature – but I thought it would be a small thumbnail or something – and I wasn't told about timing or which magazine…so I was in shock when my friend texted me!
Wow, that is so great and cool! Yay! I hope you get a hardcopy of the magazine soon!!
Thanks Lisa!
That's awssome ! Congrats on the mag ! Your trip looked like fun too
Thanks Mehreen – it was a much-needed family break – we had a lot of fun!
So fun you're in a magazine! You're famous zeba! You looked gorgeous;)
Thanks Noelle – I think it will feel especially real when I see the magazine in person 😉
Congrats! You look stunning in that picture. Ah, each time I pass those espadrilles at Target I want to pick them up but the reviews online keep me from purchasing them (apparently they start falling apart). Have you worn them yet? How do they seem to you?
Congrats on the magazine piece! You look amazing.
