Feeling Sentimental with Rellery

I recently received the most gorgeous bracelet from Rellery. If you haven’t heard of them before, they are an ethical jewelry company who focuses on creating high-quality pieces with meaning at an affordable price! They personalized a bracelet for me and it has quickly become one of my most cherished and sentimental accessories. It is the most delicate bracelet with 3 heart charms. Each gold heart contains one of my children’s initials.

I loved learning about Rellery and their ethical practices. Approximately 75% of their jewelry is made to order in their studio out of locally sourced materials (sheets of metal, wire, casting grain, and chains). They produce only what they need to cut down on waste. Their jewelry is made with precious metals (Sterling Silver and Gold) that can be recycled at any metal refinery. Rellery recycles and reuses all materials (extra stock/returns/defects) using local refiners where they are located in Rhode Island.

Rellery has also been kind enough to give me a 10% off code to my followers 🙂 you can use: SHANNON10 at checkout to create a beautiful + personalized piece for yourself! It would also make the sweetest and most thoughtful gift for anyone on your list!

Liverpool Favorites For Fall

Some of my very favourite wardrobe pieces have come from them. They have been kind enough to give me a promo code to share with you, my readers to use on their site!! You can enter SHANNON25 at checkout 🙂

I love these faux suede plaid pants! They are so soft and comfortable. I always love a neutral plaid for Fall.

Canada Day Outfit Inspo!

Hey everyone… it’s been a hot minute! I’m so excited to be back writing my first post in the last few months. Life just got a little crazy for a bit (you know, with the newly appointed role of homeschool teacher etc!) which I’m sure was the same for a lot of you. But I’m feeling like I am starting to get a grasp on this (hopefully) temporary “new normal.” And then somehow this week is suddenly JULY! How did this even happen?! I feel like Summer always goes by so fast. With Canada Day quickly approaching on Wednesday, I wanted to round up some cute outfit ideas for whatever your plans may be… I’m sure the gatherings are going to be a little bit quieter + smaller this year, but I am still looking forward to celebrating this beautiful Country that we are so blessed to live in!

How to Make Easy & Delicious Frosé

How to make frose

Last summer while I was pregnant with my second baby, it felt like all of my girlfriends spent the sunny nights sitting on patios drinking delicious, boozy cocktails right in front of me! OK, they weren’t actually that cruel to do it intentionally, but flipping through Instagram while I was 8 months along taking solace next to my air conditioner at home it sure felt like it… lol! So you know what I am going to be doing on the hot summer nights this year? Drink delicious, boozy cocktails on patios… yippee!!!!!! This being said, I am still a mother to three young children, so I most likely will not be out drinking these delicious concoctions on restaurant patios, but on my own deck at home after my precious babes are in bed.  This is where my new favourite cocktail comes into play… Frosé! (also knows as Frozen Rosé.)  This yummy drink is super easy to make and requires very few ingredients.  It does require a bit of pre planning in that you have to freeze your wine the night before.. or at least the morning of.  I am a rosé lover so this particular cocktail is right up my alley!  I have seen a few different recommended ways to make this beautiful, pink adult slushy and have experimented and tweaked it to my personal preference below…

IMG_9470

Ingredients:

  • 1 750 ml bottle of Rosé wine (remember, the colour will lighten during the freezing process so I prefer to choose a bottle that is a darker pink to start)
  • 1 oz of Vodka
  • 1/2 cup of sugar
  • 1/2 cup of water
  • 1 cup of strawberries
  • 1 oz of lemon juice

Directions:

Pour rosé into ice cube trays (I have also seen it frozen in a ziplock bag, I personally prefer the ice cube route) & place in the freezer overnight (or for at least 8 hours)

  • Combine water & sugar in a saucepan.  Bring to a boil & stir until sugar has dissolved
  • Add strawberries to the water/ sugar mix & place in fridge to cool for at least 30 minutes
  • Once cooled, strain the strawberry mixture to make your strawberry simple syrup
  • Place frozen rosé, vodka & 6-8 tablespoons of your simple syrup & lemon juice into a blender & mix until smooth
  • IMG_9473IMG_9471FullSizeRender-2

How to make FroseFrose

Ta-da! Now it’s time to enjoy your pretty pink, delicious adult slushy!  This drink is seriously so yummy & surprisingly, not overly sweet :)) Pour into your favourite cocktail glasses & if you feel like jazzing them up, garnish with some strawberries, a mint leaf or a sparkly sugared rim!

Delicious Frose

While I was experimenting with this recipe I also had raspberries on hand so I tried a simple syrup made with them instead of strawberries, it was also delicious.  I plan to play around with other fruit combinations this summer so I will keep you posted :))

I would love suggestions for other yummy summer cocktails if you want to leave me a note below!
