So Raise Your Glass

Hi Lovelies,

I am so excited right now! Tomorrow I am graduating from university with my Bachelor of Arts I have been extremely busy making sure everything is perfect for my big day. Today was my Graduation Breakfast and Champagne toast. I had lots of fun spending time with my friends and the food was yummy. We also had a mimosa's to toast to the achievements of my grad class.

For the breakfast I wanted to wear something casual but also dressy. Maxi dresses are perfect for this. So for the first time of my life I decided to wear a maxi dress. Not only are they cute but they are comfortable. I will be attending two weddings this summer and I am definitely contemplating wear a maxi dress to both of them.

The Budget Shoppers Dream: Coupon Chief Site Review

Hi Everyone!

Many of you can probably tell from my blog posts that I am a budget shopper. I enjoy finding a deal. Since the world has gone into a recession, things have been difficult for some shoppers. In today's society shoppers are looking for a deal when they buy a product. I know I am one of those shoppers. Shows like TLC's Extreme Couponing have shown just how much money you can actually save by using coupons. Coupons are now not only used at grocery stores but many retailers have stepped up to offer their customers a deal.

Luckily for all you discount friendly shoppers a website has been created for you one stop shop for coupons. Coupon Chief is a online directory that contains online coupons for retailers across the globe. The site has over 50k coupons for over 15000 retailers across the globe. For these retailers you will find coupons for discount codes, free shipping, bogos, and other exclusive offers. It's a very good idea to check out Coupon Chief before you decide to make a purchase so you can receive some savings.

Coupon Chief is very easy to navigate. The site is organized by tags of different types of retailers. The tag I look at most often is the fashion and beauty tags. There are codes for some of my favourite retailers like ASOS, Forever 21, and UrbanOG. The site is very interactive so readers can comment and let others know if the coupon code worked for them. If you own your own business you can set up a page and submit any coupons for any promotions you may be running. One thing readers should be alert about is that some of the codes may have been expired or not currently working so be sure to make sure they are still valid since Coupon Chief doesn't delete some of the older codes.

Coupon Chief is a great site for the budget friendly shopper to discover some savings from their favourite retailers. I hope you all enjoy this site, after all who doesn't mind some savings? I don't :P.

Are you part of the coupon craze?
What sites do you find reward their customers the most with coupons?

Coral and Floral

Greeting Everyone,

Blogger has been going crazy. I had worked on this post yesterday but just when I went to click publish post, the site went down and unfortunately my post wasn't saved so I had to redo everything :(.

Finally I have an outfit post. The weather has been so uncooperative lately. Rain boots and hoods have defined my wardrobe for the past week. Luckily the sky stopped crying for one day and I was finally able to wear some spring fashions!

I wore this outfit yesterday for a day of shopping with my mother. The outfit is very casual but comfortable. It totally reminds me of spring because of the coral and florals in my shirt.

New Look Wishlist

Today I was browsing the New Look website and was gushing over so many of the items. Everything seemed to be perfect for spring and summer. For those who do not know New Look is a clothing chain based in the United Kingdom but with stores in Belgium, France, UAE, Ireland, Netherlands, Malta and Singapore. They ship to 120 countries around the world with reasonable shipping costs. When I visited London, New Look was one of the stores I was super excited about.

These are some of the pieces that caught my eye on the website, along with many more...



I'm in love with blush colored things right now so it was only natural that the dress, shorts,sandals and skirt caught me eye. I really like this blush colored dress because it reminds me of the dress Victoria Beckham wore to the royal wedding. I liked the shorts because they are a perfect length and add a girly flair with a bow. Wedge sandals are a huge trend for the summer and these ones totally remind me of the Sam Edelman wedges except for a much lower price. Midi skirts are very in for spring and summer along with blush colors.
The floral clutch was so cute I couldn't resist. It's the perfect clutch for a girly touch and to wear with your cutest sundress.
The white and blue striped dress fits in perfectly with the stripes trend. I'd love to wear with a cute pair of wedges for a day out.
This maxi dress totally reminds of the Prada dress that has been making the rounds at award shows and magazine covers. Perfect low budget option for the beautiful Prada color blocked dress.


What do you think of New Look?
What's catching your eye at the moment?

Graduation is Now Upon Us

It's that time of year for many of us... Graduation. Whether you're graduating from high school, university or college there's almost always a big dilemma "What do I wear to Graduation?". Graduation is a time of celebration! So it's key to look and feel good on your special day. For many this is a memory of a lifetime; You will be on stage with many watching and lot's of photos will be taken. I've put together some ideas of what you can wear to graduation.

I am currently in the process of trying to find my perfect graduation dress. I graduate in thirteen days which is cutting it kinda close in terms of finding a dress. I have some ideas but I still haven't been crazy about anything yet. Does anyone have any suggestions?

It's the First of the Month...

Happy First of the Month Everyone!

It's beginning to finally feel like spring here. I spent the day watching a ball hockey tournament and spending some time with friends on the patio. I wore this outfit for a casual party. I was inspired by a look Kim Kardashian wore before.

Cropped jean jackets are one of my must haves for the summer along with a cute pair of sandals. These sandals were sent to me by April from Romwe. Please check this store out it's full of cute and trendy things for summer. I'm in love with lots of things from there.

Royal Wedding

I love British Culture, so of course I have been following the Royal Wedding. Like many others, I have been excitedly waiting to see what designer will be coveted by all designers to create the wedding gown of new Duchess of Cambridge and Future Queen of England. I wasn't surprised when Kate stepped out in a Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen dress. I thought it was only right that Kate wore one of the most iconic British designers.

The dress was perfect for Kate. It was simple but beautiful. It was very reminiscent of Grace Kelly's wedding dress. I loved the lace and long train.

Pippa Middleton also looked gorgeous in another creation by Sarah Burton.

Kate did not disappoint as she was glowing, and natural bride.
Congrats to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge
