I am wearing a white wrap shirt, Levis, and Miu Miu flats.

I am wearing a black jumsuit, leather moto, and New Balance 327.

I am wearing a blue linen cropped blouse, Levis, and blue puffy sandals.

I think this is the first day that we have lived in this new apartment that I have woke up to rain. I love it. Overcast and rainy is my favourite weather.

We also managed to fix the balcony screen door today. The screen was already coming off and had a shoddy repair job done to it, but during a windstorm two weeks ago it literally blew most of the screen completely off.

I am going to start by giving you a heads up that the Sephora sale started today for Rouge level members (code OMGSPRING) both VIB and Insiders levels start 04/13 and 04/15. I was dumb and didn’t pay attention to that and actually made a Sephora order yesterday (because I ran out of foundation), so I missed the deal. Whoops.

I hate it when I do that. I did that on the weekend when I ordered this dress from H&M. I woke up the next morning to a 20% off code.

It is also helping to see what kind of things that I may want to add to my spring wardrobe this season.

I just spent 45 minutes of continuous plunging trying to unclog my kids’ bathroom. What is with kids? I swear I have to do it at least twice a week. I clock it in as cardio minutes on my iWatch.

This shit is ridiculous…literally. At least we have two bathrooms now so I can take a break and go back to it if need be.

So our new lockdown starts tonight at midnight I believe, which is right smack dab in the middle of a long weekend. They thought that one out really well. Who wants to bet that people crammed in as much visiting as they could today?

While not a heck of a lot will change for the region I live in because we have been in a constant level of lockdown since the end of November. This new one is province-wide which “should” help somewhat…maybe.

I’m not feeling optimistic though based on the last year.

10 Budget Spring Outfit Ideas

April 2, 2021Sara 2 Comments

One of my favourite topics is budget shopping. I love finding something that is a great bargain and will work well in my wardrobe. Today I put together 10 budget spring outfits to showcase how you don’t need to spend a lot of money to wear a great outfit.

Most of these outfits are for places that don’t get extremely hot in the spring until you are closer to summer like it does here. We are still wearing winter-ish coats at the moment.
