Having a Holiday Party?


Make your invites as unique as your soiree is sure to be, with this cute candy-filled invitation set from Plum Party (a great website for party supplies). How much more tempting is attending a party if the host already sent you a sample of the tasty treats to be found there? Plus, this is about as good as mail ever gets (candy inside? hello!).

If you're like me, you have no idea how to get that perfect "smoky eye" look and are desperately in need of a tutorial. Well don't worry about braving that crazy department store MAC counter and asking for a personal lesson - you can just watch it on YouTube in the comfort of your own home! Enjoy your new sultry look the next time you're headed out on the town ladies!

Want to be a Gift Genius?


Ok, I know its only November, but let's be realistic about shipping times (especially those involving borders), and just acknowledge that its time to start thinking about ordering gifts for the upcoming holiday season. I love this website Gift Genius, that lets you choose your recipient from a drop down menu, plus their level of taste, style, and attitude, and then offers tons of great, new, funky, modern suggestions and info on where to buy them! It's like your own personal shopper! Here's my favourite pick for the "Single Girl" in your life: the Highschool Flashback DVD collection - what single gal won't enjoy a little reminiscing over Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club and Weird Science?

Cool office supplies!

Check out See Jane Work to find (finally) office and work accessories that actually look stylish and funky! Beautiful day planners, colourful and elegant binders, stationary and more! I love this Life.doc binder to help you organize ALL the important aspects of your life - all in one place! It has eight sections including:
  • Family Basics
  • Insurance
  • Legal
  • Caregiver Information
  • In Sickness & Health
  • Dollars & Sense
  • Emergency Plan
  • Home Sweet Home
You can fill out the Life.doc pages in by hand, or use the included CD Rom to do the data entry on your computer, then feed the Life.doc pages into your printer and print out the completed forms. A thoughtful and useful gift for couples starting out, new parents, and older family members who may still be using a shoebox under the bed as a filing system.

And yes, See Jane Work ships to Canada for a flat fee.
