Take Advantage of the Last Bits of Summer


Last week I went out with my girls to Centre Island. It's one of the easiest and cheapest getaways from the city you can do. Basically as soon as you step onto the ferry you feel like your on vacation. 
We spent the whole day here and did quite a bit from canoeing, biking around the island, getting slushies and finally spending the rest of the day jamming to music on the beach. 
It was such a relaxing day, made better by hanging in my bikini all day. My bikini top is from Aeries and the black bottoms are from Topshop.
Below are just some pictures of my day and the scenery on the island.
Thanks for reading.

Neon Tribe



On my days off I like to pamper myself and give my self the full salon/spa treatment.
Usually I make a face mask to help and treat my face after a long week or travelling and being in and out of different environments. I also like to give my body vitamins and different oils to give me that baby bottom soft skin and lastly I like to do my nails. Its a hidden passion and I really love the compliments I get, it makes me want to do even funky and crazy nail designs. 
I currently have these fun neon tribal.
Its bright and catches the eyes.
Thanks for reading!

Colourful Tomato Salad



Usually a quick snack during the day helps the hunger pangs until I eat lunch of dinner.
I have been trying to eat 6 small meals a day and so far I can see a difference in what I eat how I eat and my body.
For the salad I used a yellow and red tomato, cucumber and basil to make this quick and delicious salad. Instead of a heavy salad dressing I made my own by using olive oil, salt and black pepper.
YUM. I hope y'all enjoy!

The DUFF: Designated Ugly Fat Friend

Author: Kody Keplinger
Stars: 5 out of 5

BACK OF THE BOOK
Seventeen-year-old Bianca Piper is cynical and loyal, and she doesn’t think she’s the prettiest of her friends by a long shot. She’s also way too smart to fall for the charms of man-slut and slimy school hottie Wesley Rush. In fact, Bianca hates him. And when he nicknames her “the Duff,” she throws her Coke in his face. 

But things aren’t so great at home right now, and Bianca is desperate for a distraction. She ends up kissing Wesley. Worse, she likes it. Eager for escape, Bianca throws herself into a closeted enemies-with-benefits relationship with him.
Until it all goes horribly awry. It turns out Wesley isn’t such a bad listener, and his life is pretty screwed up, too. Suddenly Bianca realizes with absolute horror that she’s falling for the guy she thought she hated more than anyone.
THE REVIEW
I love this book it's absolutely adorable. I've felt like I've watched this scenario in a movie before. 

Bianca is a cynical girl who doesn't believe in PDA or high school love also according the the hottest guy in schol who she detests calls her DUFF which is the "designated ugly fat friend". 

To escape reality of all this problems in her life she starts a friends with benefits deal with the hottest guy in school Wesley Rush. She soon starts the learn that Wesley has very similar problems like her. They start to fall in love with each other but before Bianca can admit this is decides to drop Wesley and avoid him. Now the guy who never chases girls in now chasing her. 

Bianca has to learn how to accept reality of the situations in her life and learn that it's okay to fall in love and have feelings for someone, she will learn to accept that her theory of love being a vast and stupid idea is the one she is current suck in. 

Totally have loved every single book Kody has written, she is one of my fav authors that i like to read for a light rom-com type of book.

Also I just found out in 2015 the movie adaption will be coming out staring Bella Thorne and other young actors. Will the movie live up to readers expectations or flop?

Quinoa Asian Bowl




This turned out surprisingly well. I literally had nothing but leftovers from the weekend and I thought what better to have for lunch than some quinoa. Its filling and fast to make cause I'm lazy on a Monday. I put a asian twist on it and grilled the chicken breast with hosein sauce and added sweet green peas to the quinoa. 
Garnish with green onions and toasted sesame seeds and enjoy. 
Thanks for reading!

Just Like Tumblr

I've been very bored lately and I have no ideas on what to post on this blog, so I decided to have fun with my photo apps on my phone and try to recreate this pic I saw on Tumblr. 
I think the pic is better if you have light coloured eyes therefore you can see the depth of colour in the iris but I wasn't born with those lucky genes so my dark brown eyes will have to do.
Thanks for reading!

Tampa

Author: Alissa Nutting
Stars: 4 out of 5


This has been a very controversial book which makes it a lot more fun to read and gauge everyone's reaction.

Back of the Book

But Celeste's devotion lies elsewhere. She has a singular sexual obsession—fourteen-year-old boys. Celeste pursues her craving with sociopathic meticulousness and forethought; her sole purpose in becoming a teacher is to fulfill her passion and provide her access to her compulsion. As the novel opens, fall semester at Jefferson Jr. High is beginning.
In mere weeks, Celeste has chosen and lured the lusciously naive Jack Patrick into her web. Jack is enthralled and in awe of his teacher, and, most important, willing to accept Celeste's terms for a secret relationship—car rides after school; rendezvous at Jack's house while his single father works late; body-slamming encounters in Celeste's empty classroom between periods.
Ever mindful of the danger—the perpetual risk of exposure, Jack's father's own attraction to her, and the ticking clock as Jack leaves innocent boyhood behind—the hyperbolically insatiable Celeste bypasses each hurdle with swift thinking and shameless determination, even when the solutions involve greater misdeeds than the affair itself. In slaking her sexual thirst, Celeste Price is remorseless and deviously free of hesitation, a monstress driven by pure motivation. She deceives everyone, and cares nothing for anyone or anything but her own pleasure.


My Review

Celeste is a predator. 

Her prey are 14 year old boys.
Her hunting grounds are the classrooms of Jefferson High. 
She will stop at nothing to get what her wants. 

Such a controversial topic for a book and must I saw it was such a good read. To get inside the head of a totally twisted person who is selfish and does stop until she has had her fill. The writing itself is very descriptive as if you are actually there as the affair starts. Such a sad end to Jack who has a whole life ahead of him. 
The ending of the book solidifies Celeste twisted and selfish mind. 
Totally would recommend this because it's not your typically book where you could guess the scenario it's keeps you guessing and reading till the end.

Alpine Snow


My sister loves long white manicures via Kylie Jenner. She has become a style icon and a fashion icon for many women of all ages.
I really have been liking this nail trend of long simple colours. I find white is one of the hardest polishes to apply it never has a great consistancy either its too thick or too clumpy. 
A very unstated mani that catches the eye.

PS. Happy Canada Day to everyone celebrating. Hope y'all enjoy it.
Literally fours ago I started this blog, I'm very proud of it :) and myself for it's growth
