The A-List: 7.31.15

1. Snapchat: I realize I'm way behind the wheel on snapchat, but by beloved instagram is hard to cheat on (the pictures are just so pretty!) But for the past couple weeks I've been fiddling around with snapchat and there's just something so refreshing about seeing friends and followers lives off the cuff.

2. Little Mix on BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge: yeah, I'm that person in the car this summer rocking out to Jason Derulo's "I Want You to Want Me". And don't get me started on the best Whitney Houston song of all time - it's untouchable. But there's something about Little Mix's cover of both that is just insane. As is insanely good. Its a little long, but so so good.

3. Toronto Life Best of the City: I just planned my annual trip to my home city and I can't wait to see how much the city has changed and to visit my old favorites. This issue of Toronto Life will help to guide my trip, including another visit to Bang Bang Ice Cream (SO good).

4. Gold Metal Cat Eye Sunnies: I could post my favorite Nordstrom Sale finds like every blogger that I read, but it was this pair of sunnies that weren't on sale that caught my eye during my Anniversary Sale trek. They're perfect to hide the sun's rays for these last few weeks of summer and so so fun in solid gold.

5. Baby Daddy: I like my summer tv frothy, funny, and most of all short. Baby Daddy on ABC Family fits all three. There's something endearing about three single guys - who couldn't be more different -  trying to raise a baby in New York, and the series is the perfect appetizer to my other favorite summer show, Suits.

The A List: 07.24.15

1. Giada In Italy: I can't stop lusting over Positano after watching this show. Add on the fresh food and Giada's charisma and this 13-episode show just because my must-see-tv show for the rest of the summer. 2. Tonight Show Family Feud: I can't believe I only discovered this Tonight Show sketch this past week - but it's so funny I can't stop watching it. Steve Harvey is hilariously fantastic, but it's The Roots that take this sketch to the next level.

3. TOKYOMILK Dark No. 32: I discovered this scent on a late weekday afternoon in Sephora - that time when the store isn't insanely crushed with fellow shoppers. With a mixture of herbs, grass and jasmine this scent is fresh and edgy at the same time - a perfect scent for the summer months. Love the bottle too!

4. Paddywax Lavender & Thyme candle: this candle is currently sitting on my nightstand for when I need an extra dose of relaxation after a long day. It burns clean with a scent that isn't too sweet or strong like other candles. Another great find from one of my favorite local boutiques, Vernacular.

5. Summer! The weather we've had this summer up until now can be perfect summed up as a monsoon. Finally this week the rain stopped, the humidity faded and the sun and summer breeze came out! It's amazing how much vitamin D can cure what ails you - here's to a few more weeks of this before fall.
