    Arm Candy: Nella Bella F/W 11

    The Nella Bella F/W 11 presentation, was definitely one of the highlights of my week. I know I say this all the time, but when you see the video you’ll understand what I’m talking about. I had such an AMAZING time. So many faces, so many hugs, kisses, laughter, GOOD FOOD, and the drinks… oh my G-d it was heavenly in there! For real. I felt so blessed to be amongst all these people that came out and showed their support for Tarek and his team. The festivities took place at the Design Exchange,  where we all got a chance to see the new Nella Bella F/W 11 collection, for both the men and the women. Now that’s how you do it.

    I loved the collection, let me tell you why. I’m really selective about my arm candy, simply because I’m big on comfort. I saw a NUMBER of pieces that I would be very very comfortable rocking. Oh man and the colours. I got all excited over the salmon pieces, I almost _ _ _ _ _ _ myself. lol. There was also a raffle (I won some Appleton Estate Jamaican Rum!), and some awesome swag that attendees were treated to, at the end of the night. To round it up, it was a great collection, real good vibes, good food, delicious drinks, tonnes of love in the room. Success.

    Look out for the video of the whole collection.

    Big shout-out to everyone, or as Alexxuss/Nicole would say “our little fashion family” that came out and supported Nella Bella; it was truly a pleasure to  spend another evening with you all.

    Thank you so much to Ally for inviting us, wishing you nothing but the BEST!

    peace, love and health

    ♥Bella♥

    ps: Did you know that Tarek’s pieces are available in over 55 retail stores across Canada, as well as online? Yes indeed.

    Soaked in Juicy Vitamins- kaia naturals

    The other day I received a very interesting package in the mail. kaia naturals sent me over a 30 day supply of their amazing juicy bamboo cleansing cloths and let me tell you ladies and gents I’m IN LOVE. These 4 in 1 cleansing cloths are literally miracle workers.

    They are all natural cloths that are made 100% of bamboo (so great for the environment) and they smell lush and delicious. They are perfect for every woman especially when you do not have time to wipe off your makeup at night. Just swipe with the cloths are you are done. did I tell you that they smell delicious?? well let me tell you again. THEY SMELL DELICIOUS! *swoons*

    I have discarded my cleansers and toner and will just be using these little babies, because seriously, they are the best cleanser. I suggest you all check their website and check out Whole Foods and Big Carrot to get the product or for our american friends drugstore.com .

    Everyone loves free stuff, so check out their facebook page. They are doing such a fun giveaway
