One of my favourite bloggers, Lena, gave me the 'Stylish Blogger Award' a few days ago and I couldn't be more flattered. The fact that she picked me (and six others) is super sweet and so appreciated, I'm pretty excited. So, the rules go something like this, list seven things about yourself and spread the love. Here we go:
1. When I like a song, I really like it. And by really like it, I mean I play it over and over and over again until I'm sick of it. My hubby tells me I'm, 'killing the track'. Oops.
2. I don't mind cooking, but hubs isn't a huge fan of my cooking. We have completely different cooking styles. He uses a lot of oil and cream (which tastes delicious but...) and often forgets to cook vegetables with meat and I'm all about whole grains, the more veggies the merrier, etc. However, don't get me wrong, I love dessert.
3. Every year I do a Christmas craft with my mother-in-law. We've done this for six years now.
4. I'm the clean freak here, but my side of our bedroom is always the messiest. Coming home to a mess frustrates the hell out of me, but I can't seem to get my act together and dress in the mornings in an organized, neat fashion (aka I throw clothes all over the place).
5. My favourite treat is pie. I love it so much that sometimes, even if it's 10pm at night, I will drive to the grocery store to feed my craving. Strawberry-rhubarb, pumpkin, blueberry, coconut cream and bumbleberry crumble.
6. I prefer to shower at night.
7. I'm really into cars and take great pride in taking care of mine. My Dad is a mechanic and has taught me a lot and cars are just something that sticks. I could stand on the street and name off every passing car because I know my cars like that.
Your turn...

1. I'm chronically late. It's terrible. I'm trying to fix it.
2. My nails are always painted, including toes (even in the winter, just like JW)3. One of my good friends (AT) just got engaged and I'm sooo happy for her/them!
4. For work, I prefer skirts to dress pants.
5. I steam everything and steam everyday. Okay, not my socks. (What? I don't like creases)
6. I've purchased my wedding shoes (!) and have been instructed to, 'break them in' ...but isn't that cheating?!

Follow the 'rules', here are some fun facts about me that go along with receiving these awards:
1. I have one sibbling; a younger sister
2. I'm getting married this summer
3. I have six girls in my wedding party
4. I speak English and French
5. I own over 150 pairs of shoes
6. Rap and hip-hop music is my preference

I received the Sunshine Award (for the second time! Woot!) from the beautiful SOPHIASA. As an uber cool mom, she showcases her style and sometimes we even get a glance at her adorable daughter (aka mini-sophiasa). And of course, I cannot forget that she was the first person to put me in their blog roll. Thanks SOPHIASA.
Since I am to nominate some favourite bloggers, I'm creating my own theme and going with (my favourite) ladies who have the word 'fashion' in their blog title:
I've received a Sunshine Award from Anna over at Your Trash - My Treasure! Anna is a queen at shopping the thrift stores & getting gorgeous finds at a fraction of the price. Not only that, but she posts daily outfits & proves that you don't have to spend a fortune to look like a million bucks!
I'm really excited as this is my first award from a fellow blogger, so a special thanks to Anna!
In return, I'm passing on the Sunshine Award to some of my favourite blogs:
GLAM LATTE ::: great outfit posts, make-up & fashion
Veronika's Blushing ::: cute outfits & a fellow tall blogger
dot dot dot ::: fantastic fashion ads & witty remarks
work your closet ::: Jamie shows us her celebrity inspiration then 'works her closet' to put together a very cool similar look
...love Maegan ::: from DIY clothing, accessories & shoes to outfits of the day, this is one talented woman
