LUSH always knocks it out of the park when it comes down to their limited edition holiday releases.

My Trip To H&M Home in Toronto

Last weekend I was at the Eatons Centre, and of course, had to pop in and check out H & M Home.  I was really hoping that it would be overpriced and overrated, you know, so I could say I had been there and that it totally wasn't worth it.  That I could walk in, and walk out with out any damage...

Mean Girls & Blogging Thoughts

No movie defined my pre-teen years quite like Mean Girls.  It is probably the only movie I regularly quote, as in, my friends talk back and forth to each other in Mean Girls from time to time.
