So this past week I did a post with Boutique Onze as their guest blogger! You can find the post here! :)

I did the shoot at this architecture museum in Montreal and surprisingly it was a great place to go! We got so many nice shots in so little time. It was a great time and I'm looking forward to using my new camera more :)

Hope you enjoyed the post,

The Face Shop: What I Bought

(A post that is not photography related... :P)

Wanted to make a quick post about what I bought from The Face Shop. Just recently, the Face Shop opened a store in Montreal's Eaton Centre. After checking out the store with Diana, I fell in love and knew that I would go back to buy some products. So I came back today after doing another photoshoot! Unfortunately, I don't have the most money to splurge right now, so I just got myself two products that I had been eyeing the first time around.

Item 1: Hand & Body Cream ~ Gold Kiwi ($5) 

This isn't actually the first time I owned this item. For last Christmas, Diana actually gave me the same hand and body cream but in Green Apple instead. It was my go-to lotion last year and helped with dry hands and arms especially during the winter. So I am looking forward to trying out this scent! I definitely like it better than the strawberry scent.

Item 2: Pastel Cushion Blusher ~ Plum ($9) 

One of the things I like most about this blush (minus actually trying it out) is the fact that it comes in adorable packaging. I am a sucker for good packaging. It also is a nice shade, and since I do have a light complexion, I didn't want to get something too dark or obvious. What I am wary about though is the amount of sparkles in the blush. You can't see it in this photo or on the site, but there's definitely a significant amount of sparkle when you look at the blush. If I do a review, I'll try to use my DSLR to capture the sparkle in the blush. Out of the 5 shades available, 4/5 seem to have some sparkle. Only Pink Cushion doesn't seem to have any (or very little comparatively). 

Anyways, I hope you enjoy this post!

OOTD: Linen Paisley

This is the last part of the outfits I did with Rita. Since it was so hot outside during the time of the photoshoot, I decided to stop by Jean Talon market. This was definitely my favourite dress on Rita. Anyways, I hope you been enjoying the outfits :).

White Scrunchy from Ardene 

OOTD: The Little Owl Necklace

For this ootd we were at Parc Jarry in Montreal. It was much larger than we anticipated and since it was so warm out, we had a bit of difficulty navigating and having the energy to do the shoot. We also saw an outdoor swimming pool which would've been amazing if we had our bathing suits. But we had a fun time nevertheless. Exploring Montreal is always a treat! (Plus I did come back to the outdoor swimming pool and it was great! [also free!])

In terms of the outfit, I found this dress to be super dainty and Rita liked it a lot as well :). We added the owl necklace because who doesn't have an affinity for cute owls? And to top it off, Rita was wearing a cute bow as well. I think I might start to purchase more random accessories from Ardene. 4 items for 10$ is a pretty good deal.
