Great Snacks for on the go

Today on the blog I will be sharing some of my favourite snacks to take on the go with me! I like to have a little snack to take along with me when I'm going to school for a long day of classes, on the subway, or in the car / on the road. There are some options for the sweet tooth as well as some healthier options. 

"Nutella and Go"

The first snack I am going to talk about are these amazing "Nutella & Go" snack packs! These individual containers hold crunchy white bread sticks (almost like a cookie/cracker) and a compartment of the beloved chocolate Nutella spread. These are super easy to fit into a bag or purse and are a delicious snack. 

Cup of Berries

Fruit is a great light snack that is super nutritious as well. My favourite fruits are berries - raspberries, blackberries and strawberries specifically. you can get these pre-made berry filled cups at your local grocery store, or you can purchase the berries separately, wash them, and create your own mixture in a reusable dish. Berries are also rich in fibre, pack lots of antioxidants, and are a great source of Vitamin C. 

Baby Carrot Individual Packs

I love these mini carrot packs! They hold the perfect amount of carrots for one person. I love purchasing these instead of the huge packages of baby carrots because I find that if I open a big bag, they go bad a lot faster. With the little individual packs, I am able to open them only when I am going to eat them and they are easy to take on the go with some ranch dip in a separate container! Carrots are also an excellent source of Vitamin A. 

 

Brookside Dark Chocolate Bites

I am obsessed with this fruit-filled dark chocolate pieces. These mini packs are super handy for on the go, too. I find that these little packages are a bit hard to open sometimes though, so if you don't want to always keep scissors with you while traveling, I would suggest purchasing the large zip lock bag of your favourite flavour, and transfer your amount for the day into a zip lock bag.

Kashi Dark Chocolate Coconut Bars

These granola bars are amazing! I love how satisfying they are and how good they taste. Kashi in general is a great brand for snacks. Find these at your local grocery store!

Pastel Water Marble + Confetti

I haven't done a nail art post in a while - so in honour of spring time, I created this pastel water marble + confetti design. I used white polish as the base, and used the water marble technique and some fun confetti glitter polish. I think this is a nail look that is perfect for spring time!

POLISHES USED:

White // China Glaze

Pale Pink // Winners

Mint Green // China Glaze

Baby Blue // Sally Hansen 

Confetti // H&M

Check back again soon for more nail art inspiration.

TORONTO FASHION WEEK {March 2016}

Just over a week ago, was Toronto Fashion Week. I went down to David Pecaut Square with Blair of Couture in Chains to check out all the street style - and take some photos of our own. 

For this outfit, I kept it simple in black and white with this bell-sleeved crop-top and a short black circle skirt. I also added some knee-high socks and black ankle booties. The weather was quite miserable this day, but we still managed to get some good shots. We even had a chance to stop into the Holt Renfrew truck and tried to unlock a prize! See some photo booth photos from that below.

WHAT I WORE:

Top // Forever 21

Skirt // Sirens

Shoes // H+M

Sunglasses // Calico

Watch // Michael Kors

Lipstick Shade // Melted Sugar by Too Faced
