What This Platform Means To Me
I’ve always been a content creator. Since a pretty young age, I loved spending time on computer programs to create weekly newsletters for my family, writing crazy stories or taking endless photos of my cats.
Old Ways Won't Open New Doors
It's easy to fall into routine and get stuck in your comfort zone. But if you continuously want to keep growing, old way won't open new doors.
MAK Style Turns 2
MAK Style is officially 2 years old today!
It's been quite the journey. I remember I started this blog right before I moved to Toronto for school. I always had a plan for this blog and how it would play a part in my education, career, and lifestyle. I think that I've been able to stick to this plan - and I'm so happy about that!
I have worked hard to build my brand, be consistent through hard times (and busy times!) and it definitely pays off. Blogging has been a great creative outlet for me, taught me so much about myself, and has lead me to some pretty great opportunities.
I love how blogging incorporates all of the things that I love. This includes fashion, photography, writing, and planning.
Palm Leaves and Pink
Hi pretty pink babes! In today's outfit post, I'm sharing this super cute leaf print top that I am totally obsessed with and it will DEF be on repeat in my wardrobe this summer!
Chewing Gum
I am always on the hunt for cute walls in Toronto, and if they're pink, that's definitely a bonus! This one at Early Bird Espresso was fun to pose in front of. I am wearing this adorable "chewing gum" t-shirt dress from Zara with my (dirty) white converse sneakers. I added the little space buns in my hair with extra glittery makeup to complete the look.
Watch the look book video below as I attempted to add in props such as my pink lollipop and a piece of gum that just wouldn't let me blow a bubble!
WHAT I WORE:
Dress // Zara
Shoes // Converse
Glitter // NYX Cosmetics
Watch // Michael Kors
Sunnies // Betsey Johnson
Lipstick Shade // Petal Pink by Paladio

Dusty Rose Dress
Today I'm sharing this dusty rose coloured dress against this amazing baby blue wall I happened to find in Toronto. I am super excited to finally start styling some spring looks for the blog!
I matched a warm brown shade of matte liquid lipstick with this outfit and a cute floral blazer from one of my favourite online sites, Lulu's.
At the time of this photo shoot, the sun was out and the weather was perfect - so I had these round Calico sunglasses to pop on as well. That same day just a few hours later, there was a snow storm!! Blair and I were very lucky to get these photos just in time.
WHAT I WORE:
Dress // Forever 21
Blazer // Lulu's
Shoes // H&M
Sunglasses // Calico
Lipstick Shade // Ruffle Trim by NYX (Liquid Lingerie)

Perfect Products for Date Night
Valentine's Day (or Galentine's Day) is approaching and it's time to get ready for a fun night! Whether it be with your significant other, or a best friend - if you're going out, here's some great products to try for your "date night" makeup routine!
This eyeshadow palette is one of my all-time favourites it has an array of rose gold toned shades that are neutral and go with any look / outfit. The palette has both matte and sparkly pigments to add detention and glam to your eye lids!
This mascara is my absolute favourite and can be found at the drug store! It's super inexpensive and gives lots of volume to lashes. I also love this product because it is water proof and therefor, smudge proof. A great tool to use for a night out!
NYX's butter lipsticks are the softest and smoothest feeling lipsticks I have ever tried. They are super moisturizing and buttery on your lips. The pigmentation of the colours are also super bright. This electric red one titled "Heat Wave" is a must for any Valentine's look.
NYX's butter glosses are super smooth and long-lasting! They obviously aren't as pigmented as a lipstick, but are great for that glossy lip - if that's what you're going for this Valentine's day!
These makeup brushes are absolutely gorgeous. They are in two of my favourite colours - pink and gold - and are 100% cruelty free. They are made with "teddy bear hair", so that means that no animals were harmed in the making of these brushes. They are totally synthetic, but still super soft! The kit comes with five amazing brushes, and a heart covered makeup bag to carry them in for on-the-go. There is a contour brush, blending brush, blush / powder brush, detail brush, and an all-over-shadow brush. They are so fitting to do your Valentine's makeup with!
Thanks for reading today, and if you try any of these products for your date night look - let me know in the comments below!

Review: Kaia Naturals Juicy Bamboo
Kaia Naturals is an all natural beauty brand from Toronto, Ontario. They specialize in cleansing cloths that tone, clean, and remove makeup! The brand is also cruelty free, so they do not test their products on animals. They are also great for the environment, and are biodegradable and non-toxic.
I was able to try out their popular Juicy Bamboo cloths, and I loved them! From the packaging, to the scent and the cleansing properties - they sure are worth the hype.
They smell like citrus + honey and are give you a great feeling while using them at the end of your day. They leave you with that tingly clean feeling! They remove most makeup and even eye makeup!
Check Kaia Naturals out on Instagram.
If you are interested in the product, they have an awesome deal to try 3 for $3, and you can order here!
