Well, we are halfway through Summer 2019 and I thought this would be a perfect time to take stock of how my summer has been going. Hopefully, this will inspire you too to look back at your own favourite memories of the past two months!
Enjoying: taking some “me” time
Listening: Best of Jimi Hendrix

Drinking: water
Feeling: half-stressed, half-pretty good

Booking: fun things to do during our visit to Prince Edward County
Wishing: this fabulous summer would last forever
Liking: that Reese is a real waterdog/pro-swimmer!
Waiting: for NYFW – woooo hooooo!
Snacking: on some delicious olives from Nicastro’s
Coveting: nothing really…maybe a BMW M3?? Lol
Hearing: Reese snoring quietly
Learning: my worth!!
Loving: my Céline Mini Belt Bag! A dream bag I finally took the plunge at bought
