This past week was one full of emotion and mixed feelings as our neighbours across the border and we watched one of the most controversial elections of our time unfold.
As Canadians many of us feel heartbroken and fearful for what (more…)
Have you been spending time in nature these days?
Any time I have available to be outside I’ll take it. I don’t care if it’s plus or minus 40. I’ve always felt like the outdoors were calling my name.
I still have a couple of weekends to enjoy the family cottage before my hubby and I close it up for the season. During our visits at this time of year I love to venture into the forest behind our house. If I get up early enough for one of these walks I am guided in by an acre of mist (more…)
I thought that featuring these colours would be quite appropriate as we say goodbye to the most beautiful month of the season.
The rust and mustard colour combination is a comforting and warm palette. I feel cozy (more…)
Every season I create eight NEW colour combinations for glamjulz. These colour combinations come from a place of inspiration, passion and a clear vision.

If you’ve been following our activity on Social Media this week you have probably seen the posts I’ve written about our fall colour combinations.
Every single colour combination has a story. I wrote about the colours, why I chose them, the inspiration and how I see you wearing them.
I think that it’s also important to know that glamjulz is about so much more than (more…)
The other week I went over to my Mom’s for a heart to heart and a good cry. Why? Well, sometimes when life feels overwhelming I need (more…)
Last Thursday September 8th was an exciting day! Joelle’s in Burlington celebrated 20 years in business!
Why am I telling you this? Ummmmm, because she’s an incredible entrepreneur and the very first boutique I ever sold to.
It was September 1999 (more…)
