Sharing some of my favourite summer beauty products from @walmartcanada beauty! From cleansers to serums to lightweight makeup products, these items are ones I’ve been reaching for daily over the last few weeks. Let me know if you’ve tried any of these products!

#LTKstyletip #LTKbeauty #LTKunder50

My favourite summer dress. ☀️

#LTKsalealert #LTKFind #LTKstyletip

Gel nail extensions + the prettiest ombré pink mani = perfect summer nails. I promise, with a little bit of practice, you can definitely master this nail look at home too. Shop the products I used to create this mani here

Looking for a different denim style this spring? Try wide leg jeans! When paired with the right top and the right shoes, they can look so chic. These ones from @spanx just launched in Canada today and are available in Vintage Indigo as well this cream version. I paired mine with suede pumps and a simple chambray button down for an easy spring look. Don’t forget to use my code EMILYHXSPANX to get 10% off and free shipping.

#LTKworkwear #LTKstyletip #LTKSeasonal

It’s trench coat season! While I love my field jacket (see my last post), when the weather warms up and I need to dress things up a bit, I reach for a classic trench coat. It’s a classic style that is a wardrobe staple you can have in your closet for years and it will still look great. While an investment piece is definitely an option, there’s lots of beautiful versions priced under $200 and $100. I’ve linked my faves, along with the rest of my outfit details.

#LTKunder100 #LTKstyletip #LTKSeasonal

One of my favourite spring, summer, and fall staples is the field (or utility) jacket. Lightweight and easy to style, it’s one of the jackets I reach for most as the weather starts to warm up. My favourite one was recently relaunched and is 40% off until midnight tomorrow. It also comes in a light ivory colour. If you pick up one jacket this spring, I definitely recommend this one.

My jeans and similar tee are also 40% off. Everything is linked. (The linen blend version I linked is 50% off!) Happy Monday friends!

#LTKsalealert #LTKSeasonal #LTKunder50

Do you have a favourite foundation? I have a few, depending on what kind of coverage I’m looking for.

For full coverage, I love @givenchybeauty Prisme Libre Skin Caring Matte Foundation or @esteelauder Double Wear Foundation. Both offer great coverage and last all day. If I want to have more of a medium finish, I mix these with a bit of moisturizer.

For light coverage, especially in the summer months, I love @smashbox Halo Healthy Glow Tinted Moisturizer or @tula Brightening Serum Skin Tint (unfortunately not available in Canada yet) for a lit-from-within look and dewy finish that works great for warmer months.

Have you tried any of these?

#LTKstyletip #LTKbeauty #LTKunder50

Spring transition styling season is here! What does that mean? Well, it’s freezing in the morning but balmy by noon. That means I’m pairing some of my favourite fall winter sweaters with spring favourites like flats and cropped jeans (clearly my favourite denim style at the moment). I cropped these jeans myself (I linked the exact bootcut pair) and love that they’re slightly flared at the bottom. This sweater is older (we’re talking pre-pandemic) but I’ve linked some similar styles.

How do you dress for the in between seasons?

#LTKstyletip #LTKunder50 #LTKSeasonal

Tried these cropped jeans again today for work but paired with flats instead of boots and ❤️❤️❤️. I am loving this look! I do with I’d gone with the petite version (definitely recommend that if you’re 5’5 or shorter) but they have definitely become fast favourites. {Use my code EMILYHXSPANX to get 10% off and free shipping.}

Also this fitted ottoman sweater is such a great basic for winter, spring and fall (and maybe even cool summer days). It’s also under $40. Everything is linked. Happy Tuesday friends!

#LTKunder50 #LTKstyletip #LTKunder100

The @spanx Air Essentials collection features the softest joggers (and more) that I’ve ever felt! These joggers are beyond comfortable and perfect for casual looks. I do recommend sizing down at least one size for the best jogger fit. I took my normal @spanx size in these and could easily have sized down for a more fitted look.

Don’t forget to use code EMILYHXSPANX which is good for 10% off your entire purchase + free shipping on spanx.ca, giving you the best price for these new styles. I also have and love the Air Essentials Cocoon - if you love the Barefoot Dreams cocoon cardigan, you’ll love this one even more. Trust me!

#LTKfit #LTKSeasonal #LTKstyletip

Experimenting with cropped jeans and ankle boots for late winter/early spring. This style has been a hard one for me to jump on board with, not because I don’t love it, but because it doesn’t feel like something I would normally wear. It’s out of my comfort zone and anyone who knows me can attest to the fact that I do NOT like to be out of my comfort zone. But sometimes we have to overcome the doubt and take a risk (yes, there’s. Life lesson in there).

My sweater is older from @zara but I’ve found some similar versions and everything is linked.

#LTKunder100 #LTKSeasonal #LTKstyletip

Three classic fragrances for spring. These ones have been in my rotation for years and then never disappoint.

@givenchybeauty Live Irrésistible is a fruity floral with notes of rose and citrus.
@guccibeauty Bamboo is a fresh floral that features bergamot (my fave!) and ylang-ylang.
@tocca Florence is my all-time favourite perfume. Totally affordable and so perfect, this green floral scent features bergamot, pear, apple, and grapefruit.

All three of them make me think of warmer weather. Have you tried any of these perfumes or have similar ones you love? Let me know.

#LTKstyletip #LTKbeauty #LTKunder100

Yes, there’s still snow on the ground, but I’m thinking about spring fashion, just like everyone else. Flares are definitely everywhere and these ones from @spanx are the BEST. The pull-on style is so comfortable and still looks so polished.

Sharing a few tips for Spanx denim sizing:
• Take your normal Spanx legging size (I’m a Medium).
• If you’re 5’6 or shorter and don’t plan on wearing sky-high heels, I recommend the petite version (there’s also a tall version). If you’re good with higher heels, you can go with the normal version.
• Definitely don’t size up. These jeans have tons of stretch.

Happy Tuesday friends!

Definitely done with heavy coats and winter boots. I just want to wear flats and sandals and lightweight coats like this one. I’m so ready for spring - how about you?

#LTKSeasonal #LTKstyletip #LTKunder100

I’ve been a fan of @spanx leggings for years, but I’m new to their jeans and let me tell you, they might be the best jeans I’ve tried. They feel like leggings but look exactly like regular jeans and have so much stretch that I can wear them around the house all day with no problem! Use my code 𝗘𝗠𝗜𝗟𝗬𝗛𝗫𝗦𝗣𝗔𝗡𝗫

Anyone else really craving a vacation? What I wouldn’t give to be sitting poolside with a tropical drink in my hand.

I guess for now I’ll settle for anything above -10°C.

#LTKsalealert #LTKunder100 #LTKstyletip

Comfy basics have been a necessity lately and my favourites are these @amazonfashion joggers and sweatshirt. Not only are they super soft and so comfortable, they look great together or separate. And if you’re looking for the perfect slip-on athleisure shoes, these @adidas Cloudfoam sneakers are my all-time favourites. Everything is linked.

#LTKstyletip #LTKshoecrush #LTKunder50

Three easy ways to style possibly the most popular pants ever - the @spanx faux leather leggings. These beauties are my most-worn pants because they feel so comfortable but can still look so polished when they need to! Check out how I style them casually or for the office, for errands, and how I dress them up. Comment “link” to get direct links to all these pieces!

Happy ❤️ Day friends! This week is already a gong show, so I missed the boat on a cute outfit, but here’s a few of my favourite Valentine’s looks (and manis!) from the last couple of years. Everything is linked.

#LTKunder50 #LTKstyletip #LTKSeasonal

Sharing three easy ways to style a long puffer coat - casual, sporty, and dressy. Sure, winter may be half over, but we know it’s not really done in Canada. Mine is the @aritzia Super Puff long down coat, which is an investment, but I’ve found some other budget-friendly versions. This style is definitely necessary if you life up north like me, whether you’re commuting to work or shovelling the driveway (it’s a glamorous life, what can I say!).

Happy Thursday friends!

#LTKstyletip #LTKFind #LTKSeasonal

I promise, there was no touch ups on the photo shared at the beginning of this reel! Just good natural lighting and great makeup.

I needed a new mascara and bought this drugstore one on a whim and I am SO IMPRESSED! It’s amazing for lengthening and doesn’t clump at all. It’s so good, I didn’t even need eyeshadow for a polished look.

I shared all the products I’m wearing today on the reel and you can easily shop them through through my links.

#LTKbeauty #LTKunder50 #LTKstyletip

Today was my first day working back in the office after three years of working from home for three years and it’s definitely going to be an adjustment. But, I’m glad that I’ll at least be getting more steps in!

I picked up this striped tunic sweater on the weekend and I LOVE it. It’s not too heavy and perfect for leggings. It’s also under $40. Everything is linked.

#LTKstyletip #LTKworkwear #LTKunder50

Finally getting around to styling this pretty @chicwish midi skirt for winter. I’ve had it for a few weeks but only just got to break it out and I love it paired with a cozy sweater and tall boots for colder weather. In the spring and summer, it will look fantastic with simple heels and can definitely be dressed up or down. What do you think of this style?

#LTKworkwear #LTKstyletip #LTKunder50

Two of my favourite things - cozy cardigans and cropped jeans. Like my favourite light wash ones, these jeans were originally a boot cut style and I cut them to the length I wanted. I’ve had a hard time finding the right cropped jeans, so this has been the best solution for me. I paired them with this super soft button front cardigan for the easiest Thursday outfit. Now to wait impatiently for the days when I can wear these jeans without boots. Happy Thursday friends!

#LTKunder50 #LTKstyletip #LTKSale

It’s cold and snowy AF, so of course I’m dreaming of spring and lighter, brighter days - and outfits. I’m definitely not one for the “no white after Labour Day” rule, so I would reach for this @chicwish cream tweed blazer any time of year, but I do love it with lighter jeans and a cami, which would be great for spring. The cut is classic and so it’s the tweed fabric - perfect for dressing up or down. I’ve linked everything you need to recreate this look.

#LTKunder100 #LTKstyletip #LTKworkwear

Didn’t do my hair today, but at least my outfit is cute. I haven’t worn a sweater dress in a bit so I thought it was a good time to style this one differently than I usually do. Paired with tights and chunky boots, it has a bit more of a casual vibe. I added a classic wool coat as the final layer. Everything you need to recreate this look is linked.

#LTKstyletip #LTKSeasonal #LTKunder100

Get ready with me for a regular Wednesday - featuring cozy and soft favourite. This sweater was on my Christmas list and it’s so good. Cozy and soft and the perfect length and now, it’s on sale!

These are the classic @oldnavy bootcut jeans but I cut them off to make them cropped and distressed and I love them. They are so comfy I don’t even miss my leggings when I wear them!

While I’ve found some dupes, I can’t link these exact booties. But I had to share that I dyed them at home, taking them from a slightly too orange shade to this rich chocolate brown and I’m so happy with how they turned out. I’ll share the details on how I dyed them this weekend.

Two reels in a row? Who am I??

#LTKunder50 #LTKsalealert #LTKstyletip

Sharing my new favourite beauty product, the Innisfree Pore Clearing Clay Mask, a deep-cleansing creamy clay mask formulated with absorbent volcanic clay and alpha hydroxy acid that helps to clear pores while it exfoliates.

Perfect for all skin types, this mask draws out excess oils and impurities from pores, leaving skin feeling cleaner and smoother, and with pores that appear smaller. This mask has been amazing for clearing out my skin.

Even better, this powerhouse mask is under $20 CAD, making it a budget friendly product that actually works.

Hello 2023! I’m approaching the year 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 carefully and hoping to not startle it into being a crazy one. 🤪

December was very busy, but also filled with much-needed family time. Callum is finally back to school today, so we’ll be hopefully settling back into a routine that will be much more conducive to regular posting.

Sharing two new pieces that I am loving for the deep winter months. First, I am so glad that flare jeans are back. I have always thought that properly done, they are the most flattering denim style on pretty much everyone. These @oldnavy ones have a subtle flare that is my favourite. And this two piece sweater from @chicwish is so cozy and versatile - the knit tank can be worn with the sweater or separately, which I love. Everything is linked. Happy Monday and Happy 2023 friends!

#LTKsalealert #LTKunder50 #LTKstyletip

Sharing a bit of holiday mani inspiration because it’s been my favourite form of self care lately. From simple gel polish designs to more intricate attempts with nail extensions, I love being able to express my holiday spirit through some pretty mail art. And all of these looks were super simple to achieve (I promise it just takes a little bit of practice!).

I’ve linked all the @amazon products I used to get these mail looks and they’ll all arrive before the holidays thanks to Prime shipping!

Cheers to the weekend! 🥂

As soon as I spotted this subtly sequinned sweater, I knew it would be perfect for the holidays. Understated enough to be worn casually, but also perfect for dressing up. The knit is lightweight and super soft and I love the cross-front detail. I paired it with my favourite black dress pants and heels for the easiest holiday look. Everything is linked.
