Me Time + The Pandora Shine Collection

July 11, 2018 By Kari 19 Comments

Remember the days of going shopping for hours just to search for a brand new outfit? Browsing the stores, with no agenda, other than picking out something you love to wear that night? Then, perhaps, grabbing lunch on a patio, maybe taking a nap, and then getting ready to go . . .

Spray Tans: Your Questions Answered (…and a Giveaway!)

May 16, 2018 By Kari 25 Comments

You may think I'm vain after reading this post. I promise, I'm a mostly-down-to-earth girl, but I do have a few little things that could potentially categorize me as high-maintenance. :)  I used to fake 'n bake a lot. When I was 18, I would hit up a tanning booth three . . .

My birthday's on Friday! I love birthday week and I'm not ashamed to show it. Soak up that love, baby! I turn 36 on July 28, and crossing over that hump into my later 30's brings with it an odd feeling. I'm on the other half of 30! It's no secret things do actually change . . .

May 24, 2017 By Kari Leave a Comment

May 1, 2017 By Kari 2 Comments

We all have people in our lives who inspire us, but do we tell them? Isn't is funny how we just assume people know how we feel about them? When someone close to me reaches out in that way, it really means the world. Kind words are touching, and positive reinforcement makes . . .

Face Masks – My Three Favourite (right now)

March 2, 2017 By Kari 3 Comments

  I've always been into face masks. When I was a little girl, my mom used to host spa nights for me and my friends. She would whip up a lemon and egg white mask in the kitchen, and we used to giggle at the way it 'cracked' on our skin. Fast-forward a whole bunch of . . .
