Add a Little Sparkle to Your Summer with New 4th Street Lightly Sparkled Sweet White Wine

August 17, 2016 by Kathryn 2 Comments

When it comes to summer refreshment, I like a drink that’s light, sparkling and maybe a little fruity. And for years, I’ve been a big fan of white wine. So when I saw the brand new 4th Street Lightly Sparkled Sweet White Wine, individual bottles of sparkling South African wine, I couldn’t wait to try it. The sweet, lightly bubbling drink sounded like the perfect choice for summer. And I loved the convenient single-serve bottles!

4th Street Lightly Sparkled Sweet White Wine comes in a six-pack of bottles, which makes it a great choice for taking to the cottage or the beach on a day off. Personally, I liked being able to pour a single glass of the sparkling drink and then sit in the back yard in the shade of our large tree. The beverage tastes like a white wine spritzer and even though I don’t generally drink sweet wine, I quite enjoyed the sweet taste of this drink. It was like a cooler and wine combined! [Read more…]

Did you know that May is the unofficial start of wedding season?

Wear White After Labour Day with These 5 Fashion Tips

September 16, 2015 by Kathryn 13 Comments

If there’s one thing that I love about fashion, it’s that there are no rules when it comes to showing off your style. Whether I’m bucking a current trend or a rule that’s been around for ages, combining trendy pieces with classics that I know look great on me is how I know I’m showing off a look that’s all mine. And if there’s one rule that I’ve never followed, it’s that white shouldn’t be worn after Labour Day.

But even though I wear white all year long, keeping my favourite outfits pristine can be hard, especially with kids! Thankfully OxiClean White Revive Powder—fabric care winner of the 2015 Best New Product Awards—is specially formulated to maintain and revive your whites!

Get a Brighter Smile with the Smile Brilliant LED Teeth Whitening Kit-Giveaway

April 4, 2013 by Kathryn 101 Comments

There’s something about a bright white smile that just improves appearance instantly, but whiting teeth at the dentist is a huge hassle and home whitening can take up a lot of time. Smile Brilliant is a company that specializes in professional level at-home whitening and the company’s LED whitening kit is designed for people that want to whiten their smile quickly and easily. I recently received the LED Teeth Whitening Kit to review and I couldn’t wait to see how it worked.

The set contains a whitening pen, a tiny application brush, silicone protective trays and the LED light. Using the system is simple. Simply paint the whitening gel, which uses enamel-safe hydrogen peroxide, onto the teeth, using the tiny brush for small areas between teeth. Then put the protective trays over the teeth to hold the gel in place, turn on the LED light and place it in the mouth for a minimum of twenty minutes. Whitening is said to be noticeable after as little as one week of use.
