Perfect for your Next Walk of Shame (or Vegas)

August 30, 2012

The walk of shame.  Most of us have walked “the walk” at least once. Thinking back to my university days, the walk of shame was a regular occurrence. I’d go out, drink, dance and dirty text one of the guys I was “kind of seeing” at the time which would always lead to me waking up in his bed the next morning [...]

Wooden Monkeys, Shoes and Getting out More.

August 28, 2012

When I moved back to BC in November following my break-up I knew I wanted a change. Correction: I needed a change. Desperately. I willfully gave up the fast pace lifestyle of Toronto that included a lot of open bar media parties, late nights and uncomfortable (but sexy) footwear in favour of living with my 60-year old Mom in “Sleepytown” – the [...]

A Long Overdue Post about Portland, a Bus, Wine & More Wine.

August 23, 2012

Last week I was in Portland Oregon for 5 days. My sister was playing at a music festival in Portland over the weekend so my Dad and I decided to tag along & turn it into a family road-trip. I know what you’re thinking, “Two family road trips in one month Simone?! Are you insane?!” Truth be told, this road trip was [...]

Did Someone Say Codpiece?

August 10, 2012

Some things are just too terrible not to share. Like, when you find out there’s a company  making padded jeans for men. Last week, my magazine editor & travel blogging friend Abby posted on Facebook that she’d just received a 4 page press release about the “Hot Child Junk”  - “the first anatomically designed jeans with a man’s junk in mind” that [...]

Things I Would Tell my 20-Year Old Self #11 – Laura

August 9, 2012

If you’ve been wondering where I’ve been for the past week, I’ve been on a road-trip with my family (cue call to therapist.) I’m half joking – the trip, for the most part was actually a lot of fun (more on that soon!) However, now I have a lot of everyday life stuff, work and blogging to catch up on. Getting back [...]

Sex Toy Review | The Lelo Insignia Soraya: Worth the Wait

August 1, 2012

I think I’ve found the vibrator Holy Grail. After over a year of lusting after the Lelo Insignia Soraya, it’s finally mine…alllll mine…and I couldn’t be happier. Once I dated this guy who had a really long and think penis. Every time we had sex, it hit my G-spot every. single. time. Until that point I’d never experienced anything like it. Consequently, [...]

Things I Would Tell My 20-Year Old Self # 10 – Kate

August 1, 2012

I’m on vacation this week visiting my family in sunny Kelowna, BC. I’m trying to stay as “unplugged” as possible so I am really glad that Kate of Suburban Sweetheart  volunteered to write the next instalment of Things I Would Tell My 20-Year Old Self. Suburban Sweetheart was one of the first blogs I really connected with when I started blogging. Kate [...]
