Afternoon Stroll

One of our favorite parts about living in the city is that everything is in walking distance, which makes exploring so much easier. There are so many boutiques, cafés, thrift shops, bars right outside our doorsteps just waiting for us to discover! Even though it's crazy cold outside, we like to walk around the city and just find new places to fall in love with, plus it gives us a reason to dress up. Know of a place we should check out? Tell us in the comments section below!

Long Hair Don't Care

It's pretty much safe to say that Emily has absolute dream hair. Honestly, it's completely stunning. The other day she let me play with it so we brought up one of our favourite blogger's site and tried out a hair tutorial. You can see it here. The last photo is one of my go-to hairstyles that I like to think that I invented, but I probably subconsciously stole from someone else so I'm not going to take any credit there.

Look out 2015, We Are Ready for You

We are sure that many of you, like us, made the New Years resolution to be more organized. 2015 is the time you will get things done and you won't find yourself on December 31st thinking "what did I even accomplish this year?" Well,  in an effort to be more productive and to dress up the room a bit, Emily found this simply adorable online calendar template and printed it out. We think that it's the perfect way to knock off your 2015 resolutions. Do you have a Pinterest DIY favourite that we need to try? Tell us in the comments below!

All Bundled Up

I'm sure that you've all got by now that first, it's insanely cold out, and secondly, we walk everywhere because we are poor students. So since we spend so much time with our mega cute outfits all covered up, we thought we would show you how to still look/feel fabulous in the dead of winter. First off, invest in a cute, warm, winter jacket. No matter how great you look in a coat, you will be absolutely miserable if it isn't warm enough. This is a purchase we feel is okay to splurge on since you will literally be wearing it pretty much every day for half of the year. When buying it, make sure that it isn't too flashy so that it goes with everything. Next, be sure that you have big pockets. Being stuck outside your building shuffling through your purse trying to find your keys sucks in the summer, and in the winter it's about 10x worse. It will keep your hands nice and toasty as well. Lastly, jazz up your look with fun, cozy accessories. Circle scarves are one of our favorites right now. Woollen headbands are super cute when rocking a topknot and plus your ears won't freeze! Stay warm!

Hats, Hats, Hats

In case you couldn't tell by the title, we LOVE hats. Having a bad hair day? Slap a hat on. Problem solved. Anyone living in Canada will tell you that a hat is not a want, but a need, especially with the weather we've been having lately. The beauty of having hats in style, is that you can wear them indoors as well, which means no one has to see your hat hair ever. You can also use them to add a pop of colour to your outfit, like how we styled Melanie in this post. This time of year it's so easy to get into the routine of sticking to drab, dark colours because we feel like Spring will never come, but you need to get out of that rut and brighten your day with a good slash of colour in your wardrobe!

Cappuccino Bulldog

With Christmas money burning in our pockets, Emily and I headed out for a quick back-to-school shopping trip. Toronto is absolutely freezing this time of year so on the way back to Emily’s place we took refuge in this super cute café we found, Bicerin Espresso Bar (37 Baldwin St Toronto, ON).  We were both so eager to start shooting this adorable new hat from H&M so Emily pulled out her camera and I asked the barista to make the cutest drink she can make. Right now we are obsessed with the flannels and boyfriend jeans look. The café was so cozy and even had fog on the window, which was perfect for this shoot. The girls working were super sweet and we would definitely recommend it for a cute date idea, a place to hang out with friends, or the perfect place to unwind with a good book! Let us know in the comments of your favorite cafés in town that we need to check out!
