I can really get on board with the idea of a staycation. I surprised Stefan with a weekend downtown to celebrate our 3 year anniversary…the guy is always surprising me (ie. our trip to Niagara) so I wanted to do something special for him! It was so fun to be tourists in our own city. We tried restaurants we’ve never been to, strolled through Queen West, and spent some good ol’ fashioned quality time together. Oh, and a King-sized bed helps, considering I am a diagonal sleeper. Here’s a mini photo diary of what we got up to this weekend,… View Post

Remember when I was a blogger and would occasionally get shit done? HI I’M STILL HERE! This summer has been a whirlwind to say the least. I got a shiny new job, I turned 24, I booked 3 vacations (stay tuned…blog posts?!), every weekend has been action-packed, and my boyfriend moved in with me (yay!) To say I’m overwhelmed would be an understatement. I had dinner with my girl Brittney the other night, and we both appear to be in the same boat: we love blogging and are far from over it. However, we are driven in our jobs & are… View Post

Pants – Topshop / Shirt – Topshop / Shoes – Nine West / Purse – Mango (on sale!!) / Necklace – The Beautiful Nomad / Lipstick – MAC Faux Surprise! 2 posts in one week! This is madness. Madness, I say! In all seriousness, I’m trying to take a more laid-back approach to this whole blogging thing. Especially since my day job is now all about social media and I’m helping with the marketing for my theatre company, I don’t want The Clydescope to become work as well. My blog is my safe space, and my fun hobby that brings… View Post

It’s summer solstice y’all! This heat is sooo real, but I’m not complaining. I am one happy (and sweaty) chick when I get to sit outside all weekend! For my birthday, Stefan took me on a weekend getaway to Stratford. For those not from Ontario, Stratford is basically the cutest place on earth and is every theatre lover’s dream. I used to go all the time in high school for drama or English class, but I haven’t been to the Festival in years. Stefan got us tickets to A Chorus Line, and it was the BEST (thanks again Stef!!). It’s… View Post

My favourite memory with my dad has to be our Saturday morning trips to Tim Horton’s. We used to hop in the car- still in our pyjamas- and go to the drive through near our house. I’d get an Ice Capp or a hot chocolate and a honey crueller, and he’d get an XL double double. I remember all of these details because it was our daddy-daughter time. It was so special to me, and I’ll never forget it! I wrote a post for Mother’s Day about things I learned from my mom. With Father’s Day approaching, I realized that… View Post

This week has been one for the books. The big news is…I got a new job! I’m officially the social media specialist for my company. BLOGGING FINALLY PAID OFF! I’m so excited to do what I love all day long and use the skills that I’ve developed while building my blog (admittedly through trial and error). Hopefully the two are mutually beneficial, and the creative juices start flowing for my personal content! I am pretty proud of myself as this marks 3 weeks in a row of weekly posts. It feels good to put out consistent posts, even if they… View Post
