The Bib Necklace

What is this uber-fashionable necklace that is hitting all the runways this season?  Why are they calling it “the bib“?

As many of you may already know, because of my many Facebook and twitter updates, I’ve been spending most of January traveling throughout our beautiful province of Ontario and also venturing over into Quebec!

In 2010 started the “3 Little Wishes Fund” which is an ongoing project where every Christmas season we donate a percentage of the sales from a specially designed glamjulz piece towards families living with cancer.

Keeping Organized

What is it about being dis-organized that makes us all so frantic?  Some people seem to manage with piles on their desks, garages and basements packed with miscellaneous items but most of us simply can’t handle it. Sometimes I think it’s my all or nothing personality that makes it challenging for me to compartmentalize different… Read more »

Change is good

So this beautiful trip I took across Canada in September was truly inspiring in many ways. As many of you know I picked up a dear friend who has been living in Kelowna for the past 12 years.  She made a decision to move back to Ontario for many GREAT reasons.  Still, she left behind… Read more »
