2022 GIFT GUIDE

Image
Welcome to the Style Concept  2022 Gift Guide. I’ve rounded up some of my favourite items for the person who has everything. They are practical products that I find useful on a daily. These gifts make great Christmas gifts, stocking stuffers, hosting gifts, birthdays, or any other special celebration.   Let’s get right into it!   hOme LED SUNRISE ALARM CLOCK  This alarm clock has been a game changer for my morning routine. I wake up relaxed without the jarring ring tones/ alarm sounds triggering my nervous system. The LED light [in various colours] turns on before the alarm goes off, illuminating the room as if the sun is rising. It gradually gets brighter over a period of minutes which you can customize until the sounds begin. It helps me ease out of my deep sleep and vivid dreams.   There are also a variety of sounds to select from and I love that the display turns completely off to help create a dark room for a better night's sleep.  Click here to learn more.  FEARLESS COOKIN

Spring Style with LC Apparel Co.

As the world reopens, it's time to transition cozy WFH styles into upgraded day-to-dinner looks for Spring/Summer 22. Comfort and simplicity are essential but need to be elevated as we ease back into the groove of in-person meetings, dinners, and events. One of the most important elements in creating comfortable, effortless looks is to curate a capsule wardrobe. Selecting garments that are made with soft textures, loose silhouettes, or stretchy fabrics helps us look and feel good. Capsule wardrobes save time, and energy and are a great way to look current without constantly feeling like you need an overhaul. With a few current pieces, we can mix and match, and add trendy colors and accessories with minimal effort. I love that all of these pieces look fresh, but could be worn in any season. They are basics with a twist, so you don't have to worry about getting tired of them. I've partnered with LC Apparel Co., a local Toronto boutique to share some of my must-haves for Sprin

SUSTAINABLE FOOTWEAR FEATURING VIVAIA

  Building a sustainable wardrobe can mean a lot of different things. For me, it's being conscious of what I buy, making sure I can say "I love this" before clicking add to cart or going to a checkout counter. I have taught myself to visualize my wardrobe and think about what pieces are missing and what can be worn with a variety of pieces that I already own. I'm always on the search for companies that are on the leading edge, doing their part to cut back on emissions and making a difference. Doing the research to educate yourself is key because a lot of brands don't share a lot about their business practices in their ads.  There are a variety of other tips that I have to be more conscious when it comes to fashion, style, and other aspects of my lifestyle, but I'll save that for another post.    It's unfortunately not easy to find a lot of sustainable and eco-friendly brands at affordable price points, however, there are some companies that are making wave

The Artistic and Delicious WINDS Series by Alvento Winery

Summer is finally here and that means you can find me at a beach!  One of my favourite things about living in Downtown Toronto is how easy it is to walk down to Sugar Beach with a box full of charcuterie and a delicious bottle of wine to watch the sunset over the city skyline.  I've been loving Alvento Winery's WIND series and have partnered with them to share the new collection!  Alvento Winery is located in Vineland, near the waterfront of Lake Ontario in Canada.  The 13-acre vineyard is owned by local peach agriculturalists - the Zhang's family who dreamed of running a winery in the region.  They create small-batch wines that are crafted from established vines that offer quality fruit with subtle complexities.  The owners are inspired by the English translation of Alvento, meaning; "At the Wind" and are focusing on wine styles that are refreshing and aromatic.   Alvento believes that we are all connected to the primal forces that live in expressions of creativ
