ALEX AND ANI Haul | Waiting for Spring
Who else is waiting for spring to arrive? ❄️🌸🌷✨ I certainly am! There is just something so renewing and transformative about the spring season. It really feels like the start of a new year, for me! I have a lot of goals for this upcoming spring and I am so excited to see where the season will take me.
With spring close to my heart, I couldn’t help, but create a spring inspired bracelet stack. I used a mixture of ALEX AND ANI bangles, charm bangles and beaded bracelets. ✨ I love how the different textures and styles allowed me to create my own unique spring look! My bracelet stack is a lovely reminder that spring is close by.
If you’d like to see a closer look at my bracelet stack, check out my new Instagram Reel. I also have an ALEX AND ANI Haul video sharing a look at my new ALEX AND ANI pieces! Some of these pieces were gifted to me from ALEX AND ANI and some of them were purchased by me. You can find the video down below:
Here is the ALEX AND ANI ring I ordered:
Paw Print of Love Alex and Ani Ring – Sterling Silver
This ring reminds me of my sweet Maltese rescue, Alice Haenim! I love having a piece of jewellery that I can wear daily that reminds me of my fur family! This ring also reminds me of my late pets, Ella, Harlow, Zooey and Georgina.
Here is a look at the bracelets I picked out:
Pink Pansy and Crystal Charm Bangle Alex and Ani Bracelet – Shiny Silver
This charm bracelet has a lovely iridescent crystal in the centre. The pansy is a symbol of love and it reminds me of all the gorgeous flowers awaiting us in the coming months. It also reminds me that sometimes to grow, we need to weather the storm.
Crystal Heart Clip Bangle Alex and Ani Bracelet – Shiny Rose Gold
I saw this bangle when ALEX AND ANI showed it in the lead up to Valentine’s Day! I fell in-love instantly! I love the heart and circle tension clip closure. The circle symbolizes the wholeness of love! It is a beautiful stand-alone piece, but also lovely for stacking too!
Spring Celestial Beaded Bangle Bracelet – Powder Blue (currently sold out)
This bracelet reminds me of a gorgeous spring sky, dew drops, melting icicles, robin eggs, pastel dresses and mini Easter eggs! I love the colour so much and the texture of the beads are so pretty. They have similar versions of this bracelet in assorted colours too. SO great for bracelet stacking!
Butterfly of the Month February 2023 Pearlized Butterfly Charm Bangle Bracelet (sold out)
Butterflies symbolize transformation and hope. This bracelet reminds me to keep growing and challenging myself!
This bracelet is finished with Rafaelian rose gold and features genuine rose quartz gemstones! I love rose quartz jewellery and have quite a few pieces in my jewellery collection. This gemstone represents love and compassion.
Here is a look at my “Waiting for Spring” themed bracelet stack incorporating all the ALEX AND ANI bracelets together:
Which bracelet is your favourite and how would you style it?
ALEX AND ANI CHARM JEWELRY
In the video, I also share a look at ALEX AND ANI‘s charm jewellery line. They have slider charms and charm tags to wear both on necklaces or their charm station bangle bracelet!
I purchased the Initial “A” Slider Charm, the Cross Slider Charm, the Purple Butterfly Slider Charm (not shown) and the Paw Print Slider Charm. I also purchased the Blessed Tag Charm and wore it on the Charm Station Chain Necklace. I didn’t realize that this necklace only accommodates the tag charm styles, so I will need to place another order to try the, Create Your Own Pull Chain Clasp Necklace. This necklace style accommodates the ALEX AND ANI Slider Charms (shown below).
And that is it for today’s blog post! Do you own any ALEX AND ANI pieces in your jewellery collection?

OHM Beads | January 2021 | Bracelet and Outfit Styling
Happy Release Day to OHM Beads! Today, their January 2021 Release launched. This release has 3 collections: OHM Chinese New Year, OHM Beauty and OHM Rawr. If you would like to see a detailed look at the pieces in this release, I do have a Youtube video sharing closeups in motion:
In today’s blog post, I am sharing how I styled my OHM Rawr beads with an outfit of the day! I also share two other bracelet designs using the beads from the OHM Chinese New Year Collection and the OHM Beauty Collection.
This blog post is also co-hosted by the sweet Alice Haenim. When I was taking photos for this blog, she came right over and wanted me to pick her up. She was quite curious about what I was up to!
If you would like to know more about her (she is a rescue dog from Korea) and hear her adoption story, check out my @fashionstoryteller IGTV video or my pet account, @pawfectella.So, if you ready for today’s blog post…Make sure to grab a delicious cup of tea (I’m enjoying some Buddha’s Blend from DAVIDsTEA) and let’s get started!

OHM Rawr, OHM Beauty and OHM CNY collections were gifted to me by OHM Beads. OHM Bird Cage was sent to review.Outfit Styling with the OHM Rawr Collection
I love the glass beads in the OHM Rawr collection. The earthy, stone-like colours look so cool paired with the sterling silver beads. The names of the three glass beads are: OHM Gondwana, OHM Rodinia and OHM Pangaea.
From left to right, the glass beads are: OHM Rodinia, OHM Gondwana and OHM Pangaea. As soon as I saw these glass beads, I couldn’t wait to pair them with my dress from American Eagle. It is called the Soft and Sexy Plush Tunic Dress. The tunic dress and colours of the OHM glass beads match so well together! This tunic dress is a few seasons old, but you can find a similar version HERE. I actually am tempted to purchase this tunic dress too.
OHM Heart of the Woods mug is from OHM Together. I love the Soft and Sexy Plush line from American Eagle, especially during the autumn and winter seasons. They are made of 74% Viscose and 21% Polyester. They are soft to the touch. I have a few pieces from the collection and each one is cozy and comfortable. I find them especially perfect if you work from home or for a casual weekend!
I also love that the pieces in the Soft and Sexy Plush line are basic wardrobe staples, making them great for layering with a faux leather jacket, favourite sweater/cardigan, scarf or vest!To accessorize my tunic dress, I decided to add a statement necklace. I chose the OHM Bird Cage. This pendant is unique. It also has a “locket-like” quality where you have the option of adding something special inside of it. The door opens and it has a little lock to keep it closed. I chose to wear it with nothing inside and without the lock.
If you would like to hear more about the OHM Bird Cage, Nichol of @myprettycharmedlife and I did an Instagram Live video on it, as well as a few other BBQ beads. You can watch it HERE.
Also, to accessorize (and stay cozy), I added my La Vie En Rose Knitted Knee-High Socks in Grey. I love the cute pom-pom details! Do you prefer cozy socks or slippers? I love both!
Of course, I also had to add a bracelet stack to complete the look! Pictured, you will first see my OHM Rawr bracelet design. I styled beads from the OHM Rawr Collection onto my OHM Twisted Bangle.
I paired my OHM Rawr bracelet design with my OHM Plain Bangle featuring pieces from the OHM Beauty Collection, as well as a bracelet from Joanna Bisley.
Here is a close up of my OHM Plain Bangle with pieces from the OHM Beauty Collection. Each bead in the OHM Beauty Collection comes inside its own magenta pink box. I love this pop of colour! As mentioned in my Youtube video, I would love OHM Beads to come out with a magenta pink (or rose pink) OHM Whip Bracelet!
Not worn, but also released today is the OHM Chinese New Year collection! I had so much fun styling these new pieces onto my Lucky Red OHM Whip Bracelet. I am excited to share another outfit of the day, styling this bracelet. Stay tuned!
And that concludes today’s blog post! Do you have any favourite pieces from this release? If so, how would you style them?
Have a wonderful rest of your week every one!

Fashion Diaries | Style Sunday Outfit of the Day + Photos from the Event!
Hello everyone! I hope this blog post finds you and your loved ones safe, healthy and well, during this time.
#BlackLivesMatter | To learn more, click HERE.
This past Sunday, I took my best friend, @teafortiara out for a birthday lunch at Seasons in the Park. It is located inside a park/garden.
It was a beautiful summer day and for the occasion, I decided to wear a blue floral dress from Faithfull the Brand, my Loeffler Randall straw bag, Pandora jewellery and a blush pink straw hat I got at Marshalls Canada.
You can hear more about the outfit details and see closeup shots in my recent #StyleSunday IGTV video HERE or down below:Pictures from the Birthday Celebration:
We had such a lovely time dining out together. Her husband also came and we enjoyed a delicious brunch. Tiara and I also both treated ourselves to a delicious mimosa!
It was also cute because Tiara and I both were “twinning” with our blue and white floral dresses! Totally unplanned. Great minds think alike 😉 Also: Can you spot her Cult Gaia bag? Love it!!!
Look at that gorgeous mountain view behind us!!!
Where I live, Covid-19 cases are currently low. Many restaurants and stores have opened back up, with strong social distancing and safety measures being taken.
At Seasons in the Park, all the servers wore plastic face covers, in addition to their masks and all guests were seated within a safe distance from each other. Since the restaurant was serving at half it’s capacity, it also made for a very intimate birthday celebration!
What is Covid-19 like in your area?Time for Gifts and Cake with the Birthday Girl:
And that concludes today’s Fashion Diaries post! I hope you enjoy the rest of your Tuesday and don’t forget that a new Tea Time Tuesday is up on my IGTV!

Sweater Weather Outfit of the Day
When it’s a warmer winter day and the sun is shining, it is so nice to go outside for an afternoon stroll. Although, my husband and I love to go on walks (or hikes) together, no matter the weather! It is such a great time to catch up on each other’s lives, share ideas and enjoy one another’s company. AND…to take some fun photos of each other!
While my husband is a bit “social media shy”, he did let me post one photo of him, or rather…his favourite shoes (see below). And he helped me take some photos of my outfit! Usually, I am always setting up my tripod and putting the timer on to take my outfit photos. But wow!!! He was such a huge help and we had fun taking creative shots together. He was so great at listening to my ideas and making them happen! What a difference it makes having your best friend help you!
Following this particular afternoon stroll/fun mini photo shoot, we headed over to a local cafe for some delicious tea lattes. They were wonderful, but sadly…no pictures to tempt you with!<3
Let’s head over to the outfit photos!
I was wearing a wool coat, but since it wasn’t freezing outside, I decided I could brave a bit more cold…for a few outfit of the day photos! 😉
Sweater: 1.State
Pants: Wilfred
Shoes: Nine West
Purse: Nanette LeporeThese flats are so comfortable and easy to walk in. And I love the light blush colour and velvet finish. I tend to opt for flats whenever possible or a nice chunky heel for casual weekends.
Flats: Nine West
Pants: WilfredMy husband loves these shoes. He has had them for over a year and loves dressing them up or down. He got them at the Hudson’s Bay.
Husband’s Shoes Today’s bracelet stack combined my, Enchanted Forest Pandora Rose Bracelet with my Pandora Rose Bangle. I also wore my tan sliding leather bracelet on my other wrist with accompanying rose charms. And (of course) a few Pandora Rings and my fairytale tiara earrings.
Pandora Rose Stack featuring the Pandora Rose Bangle and Bruno the Unicorn I purchased this Nanette Lepore blush pink handbag back in the summer time and what a fantastic purchase it was! I have worn it so many times and I find the colour still works well for the fall and winter, depending on what you pair with it! Blush can be a neutral! And I love how it looks paired with my box pleat pants.
Purse: Nanette Lepore
Pants: Wilfred
