I recently tried out Younique mascara which promises to add crazy length and volume to your lashes with their two-step routine. As someone who loves a dramatic lash, I was really impressed with the length I got with this in just three coats (but you can do more or less). Check out my video above to see more.

I recently read on Joanna's blog about her starting an Article club and thought it would be a great way to see friends, meet new ones and do something different.
I sent out a Facebook-wide message on my personal account inviting all ladies, from whatever walk of life, to come to my place one evening to discuss an article (instead of a book since that's far too time consuming), have some wine, snacks and general girl talk. The post received great feedback with many girlfriends jumping on board, including ones wanting to be included next month if they couldn't make it this month.
The plan was that everyone reads the article before the gathering. I set the date and so last night there was about 10 of us who got together to discuss this article. Everyone brought either a food or wine contribution and we ended up chatting away for hours--it's amazing how different opinions can be and also how much you learn about everyone and how many topics you end up going off on. I can't wait till next month when we get together again to discuss something else!
I know I'm a few days late but I couldn't not share this recap. October just might be my favourite month of the year (provided it doesn't snow, which it didn't) with the fashion/layers, cooler temps, changing leaves and the ability to cover up a few extra desserts underneath said extra layers (hehe).
In October I finally finished our bed by purchasing decorative pillows which I spent weeks searching for, I put the gym in our building to use several times and picked up some new burgundy heels. The most exciting part of last month was visiting Barbados with six friends for over a week. We had such a great time and since our friend is Bajan and his now fiancé (they got engaged while there!) had been eight times, we were in great hands to see more than anyone would otherwise (even more photos here).
Other than that, I shared some new boots in a layered up outfit post, we bought a new chair for our living room (see the full condo tour here), and hosted a dinner with three other couples. I rocked some new booties, cooked my first turkey for my family, got back to the gym and celebrated Halloween with two costumes: mimes & a pink flamingo!

Hello ladies! Happy Monday--hope you had a great weekend and Halloween. I kept busy and we had some beautiful weather so without further adieu, onto the snaps...
Friday was Halloween and two days before I decided to dress up as a pink flamingo.
We had a huge potluck lunch at work which was delicious--so many great dishes brought in by everyone (I made a black bean salad). The downfall? Spilling sauce on my pink costume shirt! #soclumsy
Friday night I went to the gym with a girl friend and we did legs (and butt). I am working on a few workout posts but to give you an idea of what we did:

I know I'm a little late, but we had a Halloween party last night, despite being the day after, and I wanted to share our costumes.
Marco came up with the idea to be mimes and I was able to mostly pull things from our closets to complete our outfits. I picked up his striped shirt at Joe Fresh and bought white cream make-up for our faces.
