Hey guys, last week the three of us went to Aldor Acre Family Farm to take some super cute fall pictures with Maigan Lee. I thought I would show you some of the pictures but instead of posting a regular outfit of the day I thought I would show you them in some of my favourite trends from this season!

Bell bottom/straight cut, cut off Jeans. I really love how cute these are and how versatile you can make them. Dress them up or down there look great and classy. Continue reading

hello everybody!!

I am so so excited to be doing a Q&A with my gorgeous aunty Shawna on this post! For as long as I have known her, she has always had the most stunning, radiant, flawless skin, and I am so happy that she is sharing some of her secrets in today’s post! My aunty Shawna has owned her own spa, so she has had lots of experience in skincare. She always is inspiring me to take care of my skin and nourish it, and I hope that this post inspires you too as well!

enjoy!

Aloha everybody!!

What a beautiful first week it has been here in Maui! I am so happy to finally see some sunshine (this past winter in Vancouver has been the worst in almost 30 years!) and get a break from the business of homework and everyday life 🙂

Every morning here, my mom and I love to go for a run amongst the beautiful palm trees and hibiscus flowers.  I don’t have many workout tops appropriate for the warmer weather here, so when Ellie Activewear offered to send us some workout goodies, I was thrilled! The lightweight material of the top and the leggings let my skin breathe when I am running, while protecting my skin from any sunburn I may get. In this month’s box, I also received a cute sports bra that has the perfect combination of comfort and support that allows me to do any exercises I want! As well, in every box you receive an accessory, and this month was a pink  stainless steel water bottle. I have really wanted to try those S’well Water bottles, but I am not ready to pay $45 for one! The bottle that came in my Ellie box is amazing, and it still had ice cubes in it after 3 hours of sitting in the sun at the beach!

We also love wearing our Ellie outfits when we are travelling. Marley wore her outfit while travelling all the way to Nepal!

enjoy!

If you are a skincare novice or if you have used certain products, but they were not adequate for your skin, we will help you to solve this problem. Although there are thousands of products nowadays, that it doesn’t mean that they should all be a part of your skincare routine. Don’t forget that, very often, less is more.

Find out more about four essential skincare products, their correct use and the effects they have on different skin types.

Cleanser

Every skin care routine must start with a cleanser. This product is used for cleaning all bacteria, oil and makeup from your skin. This step is extremely important because if you skip it, all the next steps will have weaker effects. Owing to it your face will look fresh and clean. Continue reading

Today we have partnered with The Wealthy Life to help teenagers (including us) manage their money in a better way 🙂 I know for myself, personally, that it can be hard to hold back on that expensive lipstick at Sephora, or restrain yourself from buying that super cute (super expensive!!) Kate Spade purse! So, we have asked Sybil Verch from The Wealthy Life some questions about money matters that we have been curious about! We are so so excited to be learning from a ‘financial guru’ some ways to make our money go further, and we hope you learn some tips and tricks too.

Hi Everybody!

I am so excited to be sharing this post with you! I usually do fashion or lifestyle posts and it is so exciting when I can venture out and do posts that are a bit different! Today I wanted to share two of my very sweet friends’ outfit looks. If you don’t know, I play on the senior girls volleyball team at my high school, and Nicola and Brielle also play on the team with me, (we have played on many sports teams together since elementary school!) When Nicola and Brielle asked if they could be featured on Basic Bloggerss, I was so excited haha:) They are both such lovely girls to play volleyball with, and I so adore what they wore for the post!

I hope you all enjoy!! xo
