Just Bought: Tan Mesh Faux Leather Coat

I'm not sure what to call this post exactly so I have decided to start something on my blog called "Just Bought" to kick off 2013! It's basically items that I have purchased recently and a little story behind it. So for my first Just Bought, it was this Tan Mesh Faux Leather Coat I purchased from Zara. My mom and I love Zara and we went yesterday just to look around and I found that among some of the other items I bought. This was by far the best purchase I made yesterday. It is very similar to my other black mesh coat (seen here) but this one is just tan which a bit more padding on the shoulders. 

New Year Eve Last Minute Nails (step-by-step)

So just now I decided to change my nail colour to this blue and I took pictures of step-by-step how to achieve these nails, which a lot of people seemed to like.

You will need OPI base coat, Illamasqua Phallic, Deborahh Lippmann Today was a Fairytale and top coat (Umbrella), and a sponge

Festive New Years Eve Nails

I wanted to paint my nails, but I wasn't sure what I exactly I wanted to paint.
I knew I wanted it to be some what reddish-purple (festive colours)!

So I came up with this...

The products I used were OPI Base Coat, OPI Casino Royale, China Glaze Material Girl but Butter London's Rosie Lee is good too, and Deborah Lippmann Umbrella Top Coat and a sponge (to blend the glitter)

Meeting Emily Schuman (Cupcakes and Cashmere)

Very late post, I'm sorry!

I had the great honour of meeting Emily at Holt Renfrew with my two friends, Maddy and Chelsea who also has a blog. 

We got there at 1 pm, and had lunch, shopped a little and we were 3,4, and 5th inline (because we got there so early)!

Finally meeting Emily, I was the 5th one meeting her out of about 160 people, I WAS SO NERVOUS

I also got my book signed, she has such nice writing.

Cinnamon Sugar Bread

Today is my first post on my blog which will be my experience baking a very delicious treat, Cinnamon Sugar Bread. Personally I didn't think it would take about 4 hours to complete but it was definitely worth it. For most of it I did follow the recipe but I did not use as much sugar as recommended and I also did not activate the yeast. It still turned out well and it was very tasty!
