Summer faves 2020

 Hey gems!

As much as I refuseto accept that summer is coming to an end,there are a lot of fun discoveries I made this summer that I wanted to share!

Next up is online courses! Calling all nerds, if you though about using this time to grow and learn I found two highly recommended platforms. First is Coursera, allowing you to take classes from essentially all of the biggest schools worldwide! I took an online class from Yale for FREE!The second is Google digital garage with so much from an hour seminar to a 40 hour course!

Third is arguably most important, no one can really argue with me here.... SLEEP! The stress and anxiety this pandemic caused is so far from over because of the changes and adaptations we constantly are making to our normal life. As much as they are necessary, unknowns are terrifying and as we navigate this time of changes and adjustments, we also need to recharge and refresh ourselves. Sleep is something that I took for granted and now I am back in a routine and SO thankful!

As summer is my favourite season, this next one isn't a huge surprise, but I found a new love for bikinis. I know right, kind of weird, but hear me out. Although I did gain some weight and trust me, there are days that I really am not a fan of my own curves, most day I really am loving how I found certain fits that are most flattering. To all my girls out there, try everything until you find your fit!

Finally, last but not least, outlets. We all need them, they are all different. An outlet to relieve stress, calm down, find some peace. We need to find a way to give our minds a pause from the looming anxiety, stress of the world changing and so many unknowns. 

What discoveries have you all made during the last few months?

Talk soon gems

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....
