Morning Routine 2019

-
Hey there my sleepy gems,
I've definitely always considered myself a morning person, but this last month has kicked my butt! I've even been making sure I go to bed by a decent hour, but always wake up feeling like I could sleep another 12 hours. Mornings have been very rough especially since my work hours and school hours are so different. Some mornings I wake up at 5 am, others at 9 am and well, never usually later than that.

I've made a few changes in the morning that have really started to make huge difference in how I feel and wake up! Don't get me wrong trying to get enough sleep is still a struggle but here are some things that I do to help me wake up in the morning and feel fresh!

Face Wash!
Okay so this might be obvious to some, but I've never been a person who showers or washes her face in the morning! I'm an evening shower person, but I found that washing my face, even just rinsing it with cold water, has an instant wake up effect. The cool water leaves you feeling fresh and the awake!

Full Body Lotion
Have you ever noticed that after you apply lotion, colder air is drawn to your skin and cools you down? Honestly, this might just be me! But I noticed that putting on lotion makes the colder air stick to my body and it cools me down, not to mention wakes me up! This one depends on the day, if I wake up cold and there's a snow storm outside, I probably will skip this extra refreshing step right away and leave it to the end of my morning when I feel ready for more cold!

OJ & Vitamins
Before I even begin preparing my breakfast I take my vitamins which I 100% accredit for me not getting sick in quite some time! For anyone wondering I use Centrum Women's multivitamins! I take them along with a large glass of Orange juice to feel prepared and energized for the day!

An important thing about my mornings is that a lot of things are prepared the night before. For example, my cold coffee, my lunch or food for the day and outfits are planned!

These are the new aspects  of my morning routine in 2019 that help me wake up faster, brighter and stay that way all day long!
Wake up like a queen and slay the day my gems!
Talk soon,
Tia XX

New Year Update!

-
 Hi Gems,  Wow it has been a while. The last time I wrote and published on here was in October which honestly feels like a lifetime. As the holidays came and went, we rang in the new year and I find myself thinking a lot about not only lessons learned this year but the direction I want to aim for when going into 2024.  As you may know if you follow my other platforms, I am getting married this year which feels surreal! It's been so far away for so long and here we are counting down less then a year! I also am so proud of Tia things on Instagram , TikTok and Youtube because I really have pushed myself to create more all while having fun! With all of this in mind, here are some of my goals going into 2024: 1. Have a life outside of wedding planning  Wedding planning has genuinely been so fun and even in the stress-inducing times, I would not change anything for the world. I am so proud of how much we have done, saved, planned, etc. as we put together our perfect day....

Furniture shopping

 Hey gems,  I hope you are all enjoying the sunshine as summer is approaching! We have been busy trying to pick out all the furniture for the new place. It has been quite a wild journey to get here so I thought I would take some time to review everything that has been going on! Firstly, my favourite store by far is Structube , it is my favourite place and has such a great variety of items but way less overwhelming then a big store like Ikea.  The first thing we picked is our dining table and chairs. The chairs are warm brown leather and the table has a fake live edge that I LOVE! This was the easiest item to choose by far! This is all in a warm theme and tones that will go well with the dark floors and cabinets. We also have been very budget conscious in the whole process and the table was a great price for a larger size so this was a no-brainer.  The next main items I picked out are decor because I had some very specific ideas like a gallery wall and big mirrors! We...

She's a wife!

Hi gems, after soooo much time away from the blog I am back with a life update! I have now been married for a month and had the most incredible honeymoon! We are just getting back home and resetting into a routine. The switch back to reality isn't an easy one but we are still on cloud nine from the events of the summer so that certainly helps! So with that said I think we are well overdo on a life update! Your girl is welcoming fall after a month in Europe and an incredible summer! Not only did my bestfriends get married in the most magical day, but we got to have a summer filled with so many celebrations. Summer 2024 will go down in the history books for sure as a summer of love. I also had another major life change earlier in the summer, I changed job! After five years at an agency, with the people I loved and who taught me so much. I got an opportunity at a company that is HUGE and rated a top company to work for. The job itself and benefits made it a deal I could not turn down....
