How We Wore It | Unexpected Accessory

Sunday, March 31, 2019
HI March....OK bye March.

Honestly, time has been slipping through my fingers the past 12 months. The weekend will be over, and it feels like Saturday comes the next day. I feel like as I am getting older, time is speeding up! And because time is moving so quickly, moments are meshing together and I have no idea when something happened, so Its good to write these things down. Even if I only blog monthly.

Highlights of my Month:

~We bought tickets to go back home to Alberta! We will be back for almost all of May and I cant wait!
~My sister had her bday and she has joined me in the 'late 20's' gang ;)
~I played volleyball for the first time in years, and it was amaze-balls.
~I have started to declutter my house. We are moving in about 13 months (which i know seems like a long time, but that will be cut to 4 months in the blink of an eye! So better to be ahead of the game).
~Ben has started to become better at reading and it is awesome!
~I bought a book (HERE) to help Aurora kick start her reading, and she is doing so great!
~Spring breaks. Ben had his week off, then Maikal had his the week after.
~Roka has cut ALL of his teeth. Thank the heavens. No more teething baby!!

Lowlights of my Month:

~My kids have had Pink Eye all week. But they are 99% better today.
~Tired. I have been having terrible sleeps the past 3 months. I wake up so many times in the night! Im not sure if its the 'winter blues' or what, but it has been hurting my mental clarity and physical energy. This girl needs her sleep lol.
~It snowed today. After the 15+ weather we've had all week. Booooo.
~Turns out Roka is terrified of dogs. But he needs to get over that, because my sister has 2 giant dogs and he needs to love them!


Before I go, let's talk about this months How We Wore It inspo. When I was shopping back a few months ago, I was looking for sunglasses for my Mexico trip, but came across these fake glasses.

Am I cool enough to wear fake glasses?
Are fake glasses lame?
Will I turn into a poser?
Do I even look ok in glasses?

I dont know. But I bought them because I thought they were so fun! I think with the right outfit and hairstyle they totally work. Who knew that something meant to help people see better, would now turn into a fashion accessory. Im into it lol.

How We Wore It | 'Gal'entines

Wednesday, February 13, 2019
So I've recently learned about the term 'Galentines'.
From what i've learned, it's about your 'Gal' Pals having a party around Valentines to spread the love beyond your partners!

Well, lucky me I have recently had the best gal pal party ever.......MY SISTERS WEDDING.
These 7 ladies were THE BEST. I could spend days on end with every single one of them and never get bored. The nicest, fiercest, generous, light hearted girls around. Each person brings something special to the table and made Chelsie feel like a queen on her big day. Go Team!!

For me, dates with my girlfriends are so important. There are so many topics that get discussed with women that would never be brought up with your parents, husbands, kids, etc. It's nice to let loose that way!


OK lets talk about the second best dress at the wedding (next to the vision in white of course), the bridesmaid dresses!
Chelsie new she wanted something 'beachy' and easy for her bridesmaids.
Searched Amazon....done. I don't know about you guys, but I never thought i'd be an 'online shopper'. And it takes practice, but I have found it to save me so much time!
We found these awesome dresses and I was so excited!!! I love how light the fabric is and how soft it is!! It goes with every skin tone and every body type. And my fav thing about it would have to be the different ways you can tie the top. We each did something different and brought out a different twist to each style.
Con about it is definitely the lack of boob coverage (meaning padding). And each of us have double sided tape somewhere on our boobs to keep things in place, but we made it work! I bought my first stick on bra and was easier than I thought.

How We Wore It | Turtle Club

Wednesday, January 30, 2019
Sorry about the 'crickets' around here.....blogging has definitely taken a back burner these past 12 months. And i've been on the fence on whether or not to keep going. Do ppl read blogs anymore? Am I interesting enough to even wright about stuff that ppl want to read about? Maybe.

But i do have a passion for sharing things. And it's still January so I still have time to finish my goals for this month. Which leads me to my blogging babes with our 'How We Wore It' series. Where we get to pretend to be fashion models and get pictures taken of us haha. Its kind of awesome.

Today in Cleveland, its an unusually cold day, for here anyway. Obvi I am from Alberta so this temperature in winter seems normal to me. But school was cancelled for both Ben and Maikal, and Maikals school NEVER closes, so this weather is a big deal around here. Not complaining one bit!! And of all days to take pictures, I chose the 'cold' day haha. You know, cold/wintery photos are some of the best. Snow can be so pretty!! But these photos took a total of 120 seconds hahaha.

And it's perfect timing because I leave for Mexico on Saturday and I. Am. So. Excited.
I am going alone as Maikal couldn't get away from school and H no im not doing that trip by myself with kids. So a solo trip it is. And it is much needed for me. Does anyone else get nervous travelling alone? I keep thinking I am going to forget something or do or say something wrong to the people at the airport. I've been on dozens of planes, and I still freak out.

Calmmmmmm down. I can do it.

I haven't seen my family since August, and Im a big family gal so I miss them like crazy and this is going to be amazing. My sister is getting married (hence the trip), and it will be soooooo fun! 1 week she will be a married woman and join the 'marrieds' of the family!! We need more members. And more babies.

Thanks for reading. I love all 3 of you ;)
