A heart to heart. I use to think Chinese New Year decorating was tacky.

For a long time, I thought the red and gold felt outdated and a bit garish. I told myself I was avoiding stereotypes, but the truth is, I was avoiding my heritage.

Growing up, I felt self-conscious about the foods we ate. About the superstitions we followed, rituals that felt old-fashioned and non-sensical at times.

And then, about five years ago, something changed.

I started asking my family why. Why we celebrate the way we do. Why certain foods matter. Why every detail shows up, year after year.

And the more I learned, the more I fell in love.
These weren’t just traditions. They were stories passed down through generations. Every dish, every colour, every decoration carried meaning. So I stopped running.

And I started celebrating Chinese New Year the best way I know how, by going all in with my decorations.

And one day, I hope to design my own Lunar New Year collection. Because now, celebrating it doesn’t feel like obligation, it feels like coming home. 🇺🇸

Testing out a new make up primer and it withstood a full day of chores, going out and sweating. It performed so well and everything stayed in tact. I’m linking my make up routine here

Lunar New Year is around the corner and we are welcoming the Year of the Horse in style! I envisioned a blooming branch above our table, living room and even kitchen. Here is what we used to decorate this year. #lunarnewyear #chinesenewyear #tablescape 🇺🇸

My ribbon bow cardigan. A touch of Valentine’s without being tooo Valentine’s. Also comes in a different colour!

#LTKootd #LTKgrwm

This cozy sweater is from Anthropologie and I got it for Valentine’s Day. It’s not to red or pink which I like because I can wear it year round while still being festive!

These lights are my secret sauce to a magical glow.

My bar cabinet is on major sale so I figured I’d share it in case you’ve vern eyeing it. But also it comes in a wood tone too!

#LTKHome

I don’t know what they put in these lights but they’re pure magic. I’ve been adding a strand or two of these lights every year because I couldn’t find anything else like it.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHoliday #LTKHome

I never use this word because it’s too cliche but I am truly obsessed with this giant bow! How good would it be as a tree topper or over your front door?! And it’s so reasonably priced too. I wouldn’t be able to DIY it at this price!

#LTKHoliday #LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

These are my new favourite garland. They’re cedar and they droop perfectly. Sadly only available in Canada. But I did add these magical twinkle lights that make them extra special

#LTKHoliday #LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

Walmart Canada and Fraiche Living’s line is live. The quality is so good and so affordable! This is the second year in the row they’ve come up with a line and I was highly anticipating it. It did not disappoint! I went and bought more of those candle lights!

This is the prettiest tree topper I’ve ever seen. And you can use it as art or display it on its base on your shelves or coffee table. It looks delicate and so pretty. I love the stars and sparrow motif

#LTKHome #LTKSeasonal #LTKHoliday

The star of the show- literally- my star garland. They are substantial and well made. And with the twinkle lights on, reflected the perfect glow. I liked them so much that I got three more this year!

There's nothing more cozy than putting on a comfort show and making a classic bowl of tomato soup and a cheesy toastie.

Here's my recipe for tomato soup:
Add 6 cups chopped tomatoes to a baking sheet (I like mixing up cherry tomatoes in the mix)
Add a bulb of garlic, a large onion, chopped red pepper as well
Toss in oil, salt and pepper to taste
Bake for 35 minutes
Put everything in a pot and add 4 cups of chicken broth
Add paprika. sugar to taste and red chilil flakes for a kick
Bring to boil and turn off heat
Carefully use an immersion blender or let it cool and blend in a blender
Top with some heavy cream and garnish with basil

Best served with a toasted cheese sandwich!
