Welcome...

I shop all too often considering I despise mail from Mastercard. I sip from fine china that is far older than the Queen. I daydream of a closet filled with Chanel. AND... If that all wasn't enough for the mind, I am a brand new mother of a baby girl, who at 4 months preferred gazing at my Wedding Ring than her plush toys.

Spot the Steal: Ankle Strap Heels

Spot the Steal: Strappy Heels

     

Dainty strappy heels are everything that is anything these days. Spotting them on every runway, and on all shoe shelves across the world. They are the IT shoe for Spring and Summer 2013. Tell me do you love this trend? And also can you Spot the Steal?

While one of these strappy number will set your bank account back a whopping $600, the other will leave you shopping for more at a sweet $50. I have have yet to find the perfect strappy heels, but will no doubt have them soon enough. And you can bet your bottom I won't be spending my daughters savings to get them. Tell me lovelies, were you able to Spot the Steal today?

What I Wore: Maximum Maxi





DRESS target
SCARF vintage
SANDALS via beyond the rack
NECKLACE aldo
BANGLES angel wings accessory
CUFF joe fresh

Nothing can compare to a great Maxi Dress. 

I mean this... NOTHING!


It's flattering, comfortable, easily dressed up or down, but all together it's the perfect casual chic look for both Spring and Summer. And knowing me, I'll also push it into fall, pairing it with a dark jewel toned blazer or a ridiculously soft knit cardigan {why; because that's the way I roll}. As some of you know, I snagged this Maxi Dress at the opening of Target in Canada. Saw it, tried it, and almost died. When you've been looking for the perfect Maxi dress as long as I have, you'll understand the near death experience. I couldn't be happier with this purchase, my closet almost feels complete for the upcoming months ahead of beautiful sunshine. ALMOST!

River Critters Baking Class


Yesterday a girlfriend and I took our little ones to a Baking Class being held every Tuesday at the River Market at the Quay. It's put on by Pamola Bakery and they do not disappoint.  As this was both our first times, we were unsure what to expect. Assuming it would be something sweet, being a bakery and all, I had hyped Sofia up all morning, asking if she wanted to decorate some Cupcakes and Cookies. Until of course we get there, I see pizza dough and start to panic. Sofia Marie is going to be devastated if she doesn't get the chance to decorate with icing and dash with sprinkles. CRAP! What was I thinking? Apparently I wasn't, that's the answer. However after we made Calzones, we cleaned ourselves up and out came the cookies on a stick, the icing bags, the sprinkles, and the fondant hearts and shapes...  we were in sugary sweet heaven.

This class was so well done, including mini tables for the babes to reach perfectly, small rolling pins for their wee little hands, child friendly water cups for a refresher, and a patient and kind teacher. The cost of this class is $4, and I honestly think it was the BEST $4 we have spent in a long time {not counting the wicked sale at Aldo on accessories a few weeks back}. Sofia made friends, I got to connect with mine, and we left with full tummies, and dessert for tonight. 

PS: I loved the Pizza Dough so much I popped in and bought some for $1.99 -- are you kidding?! Usually yummy and affordable don't hang out much. UNTIL TODAY!
