The Scented Accessory

Hello readers,

This might come as a shock to you but did you know that certain candle scents can be a good form of stress relief? I've recently received the Eucalyptus Spearmint Candle as a gift and was told that it's a special one. I thought to myself..."what difference will this candle make?" 

A New White

Hello readers,

did you ever step out of your comfort zone? I certainly did a few days ago when I decided to venture into the world of Whites. 

Many of you might have noticed by now that the Black & White trend is rockin' this Spring season. For the first time in my life (without counting my toddler years) I've decide to own white shoes.

Friendship

Hello to all,

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend. Reason why I'm already verbalizing the weekend as the past is due to the horrifying weather we currently have in rainy Montreal. This no longer counts as the weekend...

Besides that, I certainly enjoyed the beautiful sunshine we had this weekend (while it lasted). My sunshine wasn't only up in the sky but the great company I was surrounded with this past weekend. My best friend and I decided to surprise our other best friend two hundred kilometres away. When us girls get really chatty the iPhone conversation "à trois" just isn't enough.

So we decided it was time for a coffee date...In the capital city.

Quick European escapade

Hello readers,

Earlier this week, I was invited to go for a downtown lunch on a fabulous (what I can officially call) Spring day. With the sun trespassing my shades and the usage of my Burberry trench, I felt like it was time to celebrate the beautiful weather. Nothing at the moment sounded better than having a quick European escapade in a fabulous upbeat Portuguese Café: Vasco de Gama.

Makeup Essentials

Hello readers,

A girl is always looking forward to her next facial beauty hunt. Whether it's finding the soothing moisturizer or getting her hands on the right bronzer, taking care of the "visage" is every woman's priority.

Aside from my face wash products, following are some of my beauty essentials :

Eight question marks

Hello readers, 

Over the past few weeks, JKal's Vintage Affair expanded drastically (3 digits following on GFC & over 1,700 followers on Facebook)! I cannot express enough how heart warming that feeling has been and still is.

As the amount of views and likes were expanding, many of my followers approached me and were curious about a few things that led to the community I now have today.

My goal behind the words and pictures I share with you on a weekly basis is to enhance your knowledge on personality. I see Fashion as art, and one can only interpret art on his own. Here are some answers to frequent questions that have been asked:

Highlights of Easter's weekend

Hello to all,

I hope you all enjoyed your 3 or 4 day long weekend! 

I certainly did. 

What I love about long weekends is that I get to see all of the people I love most and cherish every single moment I have with them. As it was Easter weekend, these past few days were strictly dedicated to family and great close friends.

Coming from a European family, I was primarily surrounded with constant various culinary dishes (it was literally one after the other). I'd love to know how can one manage eating three full meals a day (each one counting as five) by squeezing in that delicious sweet bread  your mother has been baking for the last couple of days in between. Did I mention the Easter eggs? Other deserts? I think it's that time of the year where you don't really realize what really gets in your belly because you're mainly focused on the amount of fun you're having. It can typically be compared to impulse shopping when the new seasons hit...Do you agree?

Now that I've put myself in strict detoxication, I can share with you a few highlights of my weekend. Here are some of my favourite shots...
