A Salute to Winter-Canadian Style

So here comes Father Winter.

 

 

By now, every part of Canada has had a dose or two of winter. This comes as no surprise really to us northern folks. We are a stylish bunch that happens to live in a place with a lot of snow. Who else but Canadians could demonstrate how to do Winter Chic? Ever seen the Winter Collection of Haute Couture fashion houses? They always include a Trapper hat, fur (or faux) trimmed winter boots, sleeveless puffy jackets and a plaid flannel jacket thrown in. Again, no surprise for Canadians. That's our uniform from around October to April. Of course, everyone adds there own personal touch to the basics and Voila! 

Because we have to embrace winter, we are obligated to keep up in the style department. Our changing seasons makes it necessary to prolong our chic factor way past fickle Summer. Along the way, a new pair of boots is added, perhaps in a fresh new colour, a pair of elbow length velvet gloves for fancy winter dinner parties or Date Night. Maybe a new hand-knitted scarf sent to you from a favourite Aunt from "out East". And of course, a couple new purses along the way....just because. We like to mix it up. A little designer, a little department store and a lot of personality. 

Really, we may like to complain about it sometimes, but winter give us another opportunity to flex our style power all the way back to SPRING! 

  

Bring it on, Father Winter!

Turning over a new leaf

Hello to all my loyal followers! Hope everyone had a great Holiday Season! I know this post is looong over due and I wanted to update everyone on the progress of the web store. My Staff and I have been busy over the holiday season putting together the final touches for perfection and it will be here sooner than later. Once the web store is opened stay tuned for our GRAND OPENING SALE!  In the meantime…

Ladies, now that the Holiday season rush is over, and a new year has dawned, it’s time for you to rejuvenate and refresh! Shrug off the winter blues by pampering yourself without breaking the bank-any further.

Here are some ideas to try this week..

-Give you’re  self a simple facial using a mixture of oatmeal and olive oil in a paste form. After rinsing, place a warm damp face cloth over face, sit back and relax until it cools off-AAHHHH!

 

-Give yourself a hand massage with the same oatmeal/olive oil paste. Slather over hands. Slowly pull the paste up along each finger paying special attention to your knuckles. Rinse off after 5 minutes.

 

-Remember the’ cucumber-slices-on- your eyelids trick is to reduce puffiness? Try it, it WORKS!

-Treat yourself to a luxurious bath, complete with scented salts to relax tired muscles. And LINGER!

 

-SLEEP! Nothing makes you glow more than a good night sleep. Start a new bedtime routine.. Make a cup of lemon tea with honey, grab a book and head to bed 20 minutes earlier. You will notice a big difference by weeks end.

 

HAPPY PAMPERING!!!!!!!!!!
