Go Ahead and Break The Rules. I dare you.

I’ve never been one to follow trends or fall in line. My mom stills tells the story of me in kindergarten being put in time out to think about what I did. When the teacher turned back around from the chalk board, I was back in circle time. When she asked me why I wasn’t in the corner, I promptly replied “You told me to think about what I did. And I’m done with that now.”

Guess she got a preview of the man I would become one day. Self-assured, but always a little bit of a charismatic rebel. It’s why my fashion choices (albeit usually pre-approved by my fashion blogging husband) have been a way to express myself and break the rules as well. This summer, my must have wardrobe items might just surprise you.

A Getaway Idea That Won’t Break The Bank

As someone that has been trying to pinch his pennies and stick to an excel spreadsheet budget that stares me in the face as I sit down to write this post, I can usually be found scrolling through travel accounts on Instagram or following along with my favourite bloggers while they jetset around the world. Although that once was the life I called my own, I’m actually much happier to be where I am today, saving for a baby with my husband and working towards our dreams.

That being said, just because I’m on a budget, doesn’t mean that I don’t want to take full advantage of the warm weather and enjoy getaways whenever we can. Thankfully I was recently introduced to a getaway idea in our own proverbial backyard that not only stayed in budget, but left me excited to tell you about it too!

Finally A Reason To Celebrate Summer

Every year it seems that summer takes forever to arrive, and then never lasts long enough. Maybe it’s just the relative fact that Torontonians do love to complain about the weather, or the fact that we all crave the beautiful atmosphere of being outside. Lately you’ll notice that I have been sharing a lot more outdoor adventure content and activities because I want to take advantage of the season. August may seem far away, but before you know it, my favourite event of the summer will take place and it’s time to tell you why I am so excited to attend yet again!

When It Just Feels Right

I like to think that life happens to us in exactly the way we need it to in order to be our best selves. Now, that sometimes is going to mean a rough road, but when you get to the end of it you are so much wiser for having walked it. Amid a crazy 2019 and lots of changes in my life personally and professionally, I have come to trust my instincts a little more. When I feel the necessity to take a day off to recharge, I do it. When I need to speak my truth, I no longer worry if it’s the right decision or not. And when I love brand and it feels right to support them, I do so proudly.
