My Boyfriend's Back

I don't know about you, but when I like something I wear it and it enters heavy rotation in my wardrobe. I love these boyfriend jeans and I am wearing them every opportunity I get. My dark skinnies are boring me. These boyfriend jeans are different. Plus I can't get enough of the Canadian Tuxedo.

Cocoa Jewelry Giveaway - Blazers & Boyfriends

I first discovered Cocoa Jewelry in Shopepers Drug Mart during the fall. One of the kids was sick and I was waiting to pick up a prescription. I browsed the Beauty Boutique and admired the jewelry display full of great finds and picked up my first Cocoa piece a ring. Between the four kids I got to Shoppers quite often and my collection grew - more rings, bracelets and earrings. When Cocoa Jewelry reached out to me and gave me a goodie box full of their  jewelry I was ecstatic because I was already a fan and that meant healthy children!

I've been wearing the pieces constantly and gotten to know the creative power behind this brand through e-mail, Twitter and Facebook. Nancy is a woman after my heart - she loves denim and blazers as much as I do.  Cocoa's philosophy is pretty easy to understand

"Cocoa Jewelry is an affordable luxury accessories brand.  We source, design & manufacture high quality, trendy jewelry and accessories.  Our products are sold at major retailers under a number of branded & private label collections.  We want woman to feel empowered and beautiful.  Be fierce ladies.

You can get our exclusive collections at Shoppers Beauty Boutiques, TARGET Canada, the Shopping Channel or online at www.cocoajewelry.com."

With their recent appearance on Dragon's Den and deal with Jim, Cocoa Jewelry is taking the Canadian Accessories Marketplace with one fashionable piece at a time. With an exclusive line now available in Target Canada, there is a style and price point for everyone.

This style post is dedicated to Cocoa Jewelry and Nancy - I'm rocking jeans, a blazer and bling.

I made a fashion friend/colleague, Nora, at a PR event bonding over our love of dressing up and this Spike Me Collar necklace

My Boyfriends Back...Jeans That Is

Today has been a very casual day. I've been running around doing very adult things - getting ready for the end of RRSP season. My inner child died a little because of me having written that. My brother-in-law Kevin took some pictures of me last weekend and I happened to be wearing the same thing today minus the heels - I wore booties and socks.

Kevin was a photographer in the Canadian Military and served in the Combat Camera division. He has been to many places and seen atrocities most could only imagine. On the flip side Kevin's also traveled to the Canadian far north and visited places like India.  Could two places be more different? Poor guy got stuck taking my picture and trying to help me manage Photo Shop. I also forced him into giving me some free photography lessons.

Now that Kevin has entered civilian life he's started his own photo studio called Kaptured Memories. I've added his Facebook page link here.
