I'm a few days late, but before I say hello to September, here's a look back at August...
In August I rocked a romper--twice--for breakfast out with friends. I photographed my bestie's pregnancy announcement (adorable, right?) and celebrated her birthday with dinner, go-karting, ice cream cake and a huge giraffe.
I bought a new bikini, spent a solid two hours washing my car and shared a cool DIY with a Northern Reflections sweatshirt. I bought a cow-hide case for my new iPad mini, rocked one of my favourite outfits yet--which was totally a throw-on-and-go type look--and dressed as twinsies, by accident, with my man.
I went to El Camino for the second time, pulled a diva move and had an outfit change that night, went to a rooftop BBQ and stayed fairly consistent hitting the gym.
I rocked my new camo pants for a special evening out and the most important event that takes the cake, my nephew, Bentley, was born and I became an Aunt.

Hi guys! Welcome to another 'episode' (?) of my life. I love bringing you guys along with me for various day-to-day REAL LIFE events... sometimes there is nothing too crazy or exciting happening, but it's still fun to share and connect with you guys.
In this vlog I do a mad grocery shop, play in a softball tournament, make some sa-weeeeeeeet foods (fruit crepe, chickpea cakes, kale-avocado salad +more), I also share my thoughts on what it's like to film a make-up video, a cute outfit I put together and how much I. Hate. Packing.
Cheers & thanks for watching! xo
Things I mentioned in the video:
* Crepe recipe.

Connect with me!
I also create monthly videos for Place d'Orleans; check me out on their YouTube channel HERE.
* I'll be back tomorrow with a Weekend Recap since today is the Labour Day holiday! Enjoy your long weekend and keep up with me on my favourite social media (Instagram) for up-to-date
I've already shared snippets of my beautiful baby nephew, Bentley, on my Instagram & in a recent vlog, but as promised, here are a couple photos of my sister's little guy. He's such a looker, and while normally that would just be the biased aunt in me, he really is a good looking babe.
Holding him was such a treat, I didn't want to let him go when we got together last weekend. My little sister is a mother and although it was less than a year ago that she was getting married and celebrating her bachelorette, I know she's fully ready and excited to take on the newest chapter in her life and side note, I'm pretty pumped to be an aunt!
OMG, this was a difficult video to film. Big ups and shout outs to alllllllll my beauty gurus out there, girlllllllllll you be puttin' in WERK.
First off, sorry for the terrible lighting; I weighed out my options in my head after I filmed this and saw how terrible the lighting was (it was a sunny day, and I got all set up to film and it started to rain! UGH!). Option 1: cancel this entire video. Option 2: edit and upload it despite it being kind of crappy and at least get a video up.
So.
I chose option #2.
Hoorah? Please say hoorah.
Secondly, this is clearly not a tutorial. I shared the products I used in the video quickly, but I'm mainly just showing you my everyday face/make-up routine. I often use BB cream (especially in the summer) but used foundation for the sake of the video (bc sometimes I used that too :)
WEAR SUNSCREEN my friends. I rock this everyday, it's my moisturizer and SPF in one and goes on before anything else. I've been wearing sunscreen on my face and neck everyday for over six years and haven't been in a tanning bed for longer than that. PROTECT YO FACE.
Hope you enjoyed and sorry for the shoddy-ness...I had a ghetto-esque set up of boxes piled on top of each others to prop up a mirror and can I just say applying liquid liner on camera is next to impossible!? It is. Trust moi.
Okay bye.

As I mentioned in my last outfit post, I went to a special dinner/double date on Monday night and filmed half of my getting ready (hello rollers!) and the evening. The food was phenom and it was such a fun evening. Thanks for watching!
