I'm back from Tremblant and have so much to share, in the form of weekend snaps & a video--which needs to be edited together--but between unwinding, getting Chinese take-out, editing my next PDO video and setting up my new iPhone (life so hard, I know), I'm pooped. Mainly from editing for five hours straight, but I'm not complaining, just explaining. 

All that to say, just a quick hello and I'll be back tomorrow with a full recap from my weekend! 

As always, thank you for reading & coming to check out my little corner of the Internet. Your visits, comments, likes, tweets & more make my day. Keep up with me on Twitter (@acoest1984) for instant updates--and random, useless thoughts--on the go. 


Outfit deets: Joe Fresh turtleneck (new!), Walmart long sleeved tunic, Sirens leggings, Ardène socks & Spring headband (new!). 


In this vlog I show you how winter has hit Ottawa big time, hit the gym & go to breakfast with Marco.  I shop for snowboard boots and go to St. Hubert.

In this diary of my day (ie. vlog) I visit my grandparent's seniors residence for a bazaar, get my hair coloured, do some shopping at Place d'Orleans & go out on a double date.  Thanks for watching! xo

See the previous day HERE.

Hello from Mont Tremblant!

Sorry for the radio silence for the past couple days, things got busy and I needed a bit of a break, to be honest.  The good news is, holidays are here.  Marco and I are taking a mini three-day vacation to the little ski village in Quebec to relax, ski (him) / snowboard (me) & spend some QT together.

We ended up getting a late start today, ran errands, did some Black Friday shopping and eventually hit the road to get here in the late afternoon.  We checked in and our one-bedroom suite is really cute and has a cottage feel to it.  We have a balcony and are super close to all the little shops and restaurants.  We went for dinner tonight at Le Forge for burgers & chilli while we sat looking out at the mountain.

Tomorrow we plan on hitting the slopes so I'm hoping for some mild weather because we are both big wimps when it comes to the cold!  I have been vlogging since we left so I'll have a video recap of our weekend once we're back.

Have a great weekend!


Friday work attire, once I got home.
Outfit deets:  Stitches lace top, Smart Set tank underneath, Parasuco denim, Dynamite blazer, Aldo boots & Expressions by The Bay necklace (still available!).


Friday night dinner for one:  grilled zucchini, red onion, parsnips & brussel sprouts (what, am I 80?!).


 
Party time!
Went to a house-warming party on Friday night with Marco and friends.  Note the cookies?  I made the cookies.


Saturday morning I visited my grandparent's senior residence to check out the bazaar and visit with family--and my four month old nephew--quickly before…


 …heading off to my hair appointment.


Afterwards, I headed to Place d'Orleans to finish my shopping for my next video.  I purchased some sweet shoes from Aldo and passed on this glittery gold dress from Smart Set (on sale for $49 right now!).


Sunday morning gym sesh--Marco snapped this photo totally guerrilla stylez but I like it :P  I was doing a new reverse crunch he taught me with a weight between my feet--so nervous it was going to fall on me!


Annnd then we killed our workout with the healthiest of breakfasts at our fave (bar & grill) spot.


Afterwards, we did some shopping and I tried on numerous pairs of snowboard boots in search of, the ones.


And finally, I spent the evening editing all the vlogging I did this past weekend.  Stay tuned for video recaps from Saturday & Sunday.
