2020 is definitely one of the year to remember. I finally purchased my very first home in the city in the beginning of the year, and I was just lucky enough to settle in right before the Covid-19 outbreak. Since now that "stay at home" is becoming the new norm, I'm actually very comfortably stay at my own sanctuary and practicing that quarantine life. Personally I really get nothing to complain about.
Although I was not expecting to stay at home as much as we currently are when I moved in, I still wanted to create a little sanctuary, a piece of space that I could just relax, rest in, and call home. My enthusiasm for interior design and decoration is taking all over me even though my place is only a nearly 500 sqft condo, and there is literally not much space for me to do anything. With that being said, it is very important to choose the right statement pieces, from furnitures, to light fixtures and to art works.
I did many researches on almost all the furnishing websites and I was very happy to find many of my key pieces from Mobilia. I've always love the idea of a coziness and warmth vibe for bedroom and this Jura Acacia bed is exactly what I've been looking for. it instantly creates a earthy and resting atmosphere and it's just one of the furnitures that one could keep for years. I've also chosen the matching nightstand as well as a little table lamp to complete the look. As for the living room, in contrary, I was looking to create a chic French style space by adding a few interesting elements such as a fireplace mantel, a brown leather sofa and different accent chairs. The living room is not quite finished yet but I'm already happy with how it looks now.
Having my own sanctuary home in today's situation is definitely something I feel very grateful everyday. And I've learned to appreciate everything we have in our lives. I hope everyone is all stay in, stay strong and stay healthy.

Montreal has had a special place in my heart for a long time and it's always a pleasure to come back here. Recently I had one of the most exciting work trips with my bestie to the Osheaga Music Festival and we were luckily enough to stay at this beautiful suite in Montreal's the brand new hotel, Hôtel Monville.
Imaging the most innovative, modern and aesthetically pleasing hotel conveniently located just a few steps from the historic Old Montreal. Hotel Monville checks all the right boxes: unique, sophisticated and most Instagrammable interior designs from lobby to each rooms, floor-to-ceiling windows with panoramic view to the city, sun filled suites with white fluffy king size beds, the lists can keep going... And if all of this doesn't impress you, it may be handy to know this is the first hotel in Canada that offers room services using an autonomous delivery robot that carries all your orders directly to your suites. Trust me, this little guy is smarter then your thought and you'd instantly fall in love with him just like I did (you can check out my Instagram story highlights here for more)..
So, now while back on home soil I'm still dreaming of those delicious duck confict benedicts and Croque Madame, and the ultimate robe life a girl could ever ask for... I think when a hotel is this aesthetically pleasing one cannot help but share the love, right?
I'd like to extend a very special thank you to the General Manager Marc Saunier as well as the beautiful Kathleen Murphy for allowing us such an incredible experience..

Have you been to The Getty ladies? In case you haven't it may just be one of the most Insta-friendly locations on earth. Clean white architectures, interesting lines and the perfect afternoon sunlit all come together like a dream comes true. So I insist you must visit it next time you are in Los Angeles.
Some of you might already know that I was up in The Getty briefly on my last day in L.A. this February. Since my flight was only 4 hours away sadly I could only admire the museum from the outside... But the half hour trip was definitely a highlight to end my trip.. Until next time L.A...

Scrolling back to my trip to Malibu last month and makes me realize how much I miss summer, aka all my cute summer outfits. Especially when you have a whole wardrobe full of new summer dresses and nowhere to wear. Luckily enough it's almost summer time for all my friends in the north atmosphere, so here I've selected some fresh summer staples for you ladies to get ready in just a few simple clicks...
If you are ever in Los Angeles, here is a place that you MUST pay a visit. Sitting high on Mount Hollywood in Griffith Park, Griffith Observatory commands a view of the city of angles from Downtown Los Angeles to Hollywood to the Pacific Ocean. It is also one of the most popular places to see the famous Hollywood sign. This Art Deco masterpiece not only attracts millions of visitors every year, but also has been the perfect backdrop for countless films. Or for someone like yours truly it's always the perfect backdrop for a style shoot...
Mark this place done my friend, for your next trip to L.A. if you haven't been here already. Or even if you already visited here before it's always worth to come back again..
