H&M Dress + Aldo clutch | Suzy Shier dress + Maurizio Taiuti clutch
Went to a wedding a few weeks ago and snapped a shot of the two dresses I was debating between wearing. I ended up going with the purple dress (it was brand new) and the white clutch (best of both worlds?).

The amazing people over at Misikko sent a brand (spankin') new HANAair Professional hair dryer to try out. I was super stoked as I've been in the market for a new hair dryer (I was using a cheapy Conair one and had drooled over a friend's Chi last winter) and well overdue. When my package arrived I did a little happy dance (my Grammy taught me this) and opened it with excitement. I tried it immediately that night to dry my bangs after my shower. Since then I have been using it almost daily and getting a real feel for it.
The first thing I noticed was the super long cord (love this) and the weight of the dryer (heavy-ish). Next up, the power. Oh the power. This baby dried my hair in about one third of the time it normally takes. The buttons are easy to navigate and your fingers don't accidentally shut it off as you're using it. There are two heat settings and two power settings. There is also an extra cold cool-shot button that stays on without having to hold it on (bonus), furthermore, it gets quite cold (and acts as a great fan when you're starting to sweat in a steamy bathroom).
Verdict: Love this hair dryer, great results and it definitely compares to my experience with Chi and kicks my Conair's butt.
Misikko carries a top rated tourmaline hair dryer, hair straighteners (Jamie recently did a review on hers) & the best hair dryers (you can buy mine here).
* Disclaimer: While Misikko did send me this product for free to review, my opinions and review are all my own and not influenced in any way. I genuinely love this product and would recommend it if it's in your price range.

I've been super lucky this summer to have cottage priviledges. I've spent several weekends out of town with some wonderful people (swimming, relaxing, eating far too much good stuff and enjoying the summertime weather). Hopefully the remaining days of summer will follow suit.

Look kids! It's the recap of my April Resolutions (finally). I have to admit recapping on two months worth of resolutions in one month is pretty impressive. Wait until I give you my August Resolutions - it'll blow your socks off. Let's get recappin':
1. I used the Crest White Strips and loved them. They definitely whitened my teeth (so much so that people noticed - even strangers). I would highly recommend them ($32 well spent). I used the second level of the strips (whiten for 30 minutes, everyday, for 14 days) and while sometimes I missed a day, it didn't seem to matter. My teeth did not get more sensitive (I thought they would, and I have sensitive teeth) and they worked.
2. I highlighted my hair and now I'm almost back to needing it done again (which will prompt more highlighting, despite my inner debate).
3. Still haven't done this but have been driving around with it in the back of my car for over two weeks now (Sharon, please don't hate me!).
4. I have decided (after all that) to keep my car for a little bit longer. Dream car, take a back seat.
5. I made the clutch, started the skirt and completed the scarf. I also made a trapeze style top.
While taking these photos the other day I couldn't resist the sweet Canada Geese
that were quacking around. I had to seize the (Canadian 'eh) moment and snap 'em up.
