Went to Starbucks with my sister this morning and as usual I said my name for the order. I don’t know if I’ve EVER had my name spelled right by a barista there. Today is clearly a special one!

Stayed at Jenie’s house and went for a stroll on the boardwalk in the morning. 

It’s SO beautiful down there. I alsolutely love it. Vow to spend more time there this summer. As a West end girl it always feels so far away but one trip on the streetcar and it’s like you’re in a different city. 

Today reminded me of living at Bondi Beach in Australia. I loved it there so much. Left and piece of my heart and will definitely be back someday. Hope to take Sean to NZ and Australia for a tour! 

Came across this old throwback to 2004 when I lived there. Long brown hair! I was so tanned and thin back then. Ahhh, the beach life! 

Heading home to see my parents and go to a friends baby shower this weekend. She’s having twins!  Really looking forward to seeing all my old friends from back home. It’s been AGES! 

Wishing you a wonderful weekend. It’s absolutely beautiful outside today! 

Went for a nice walk at sunset yesterday before dance and am so happy the weather is finally nice. I always feel a warm spot in my heart walking down Palmerston, my family is from Palmerston North, New Zealand. Can’t help but think of them and the beautiful NZ countryside.

I don’t usually read my horrorscope (:P!) but this week it seems the Toronto Metro has me in mind. It’s coming up to my birthday month and I’m feeling great about the next year.

Last night at dance was so much fun! I absolutely love being in Army of Sass. We get in a good workout, learn a new combo, and practice our routine for the show in June. My stomach muscles were hurting from laughing so hard, it’s really great to be surrounded by so many wonderful ladies.

Spent yesterday afternoon working out of the Women’s Mecca office in Liberty Village. It’s absolutely beautiful and the skylight fills the office with sunshine. Was happy to stumble on one of my fav books kicking around the office. I read over this one every couple months for motivation and creative stimulation.

Visiting my sister in the Beaches and recording an audition video for something fun. Put out good vibes for meeeee! We used to live at Broadview/Danforth and take the subway over this bridge all the time. Brings back fond memories!

Shoutout to my friends at Thomas Sabo Canada for sending this beautiful gift, I haven’t worn and anklet since I was a kid and love it.

So nice to have NO SOCKS weather again. Are you following me on Snapchat BTW? Add me: casiestewart!

In other news, get outside and soak up some of that sunshine today. REMEMBER, you’ll never be younger than you are RIGHT NOW!

LOVE AND LIGHT XO CASIE

Notice a difference? I tried out a new pair of Air Optix Color contacts in Gray. I’ve had a fun time trying all the different colours the last few months. I love changing my look, depending on how long you’ve been reading I’ve had a ton of hair styles, different hair colours, and fashions.  Lots of different styles. The contacts last 30 days and are a-ok for daily wear.

Here’s a few of the colours in the Subtle collections. There’s also a line of Vibrant colours you can check out at airoptixcolors.ca.

At first I was a real rookie at putting them in and taking them out but now I’ve got it down to a science. I’ve also found them to be comfortable in that, once I get them in, I can wear them all day without bothering my eyes. This was new to me as I’ve never been a contacts wearer.  They’re light and breathable while enhanceing your natural eye colour.

Air Optix Colors are the only contact lenses designed with 3-in-1 colour technology to help you look and feel your best. Mine are non-prescription but they’re available with prescription, so if you ever want to change up your look, or your regular contacts, ask your eye doctor.

New gray couches arrived at the office the same day I was wearing these. Coincidence?

My eyes are usually bright hazel/green so this is quite a difference. They look quite nice when the sun shines in them but not too drastic of a difference to make me look like a cartoon. Check out my other adventures with Air Optix Colors by visiting this LINK where you can scroll through Brilliant Blue, Gemstone Green, Sterling Gray, and Honey eyes.

Next I’m trying Blue and Brown. I wonder if I’ll look more like my sister with Brown eyes? If you have any questions about Air Optix Colors or my experiences with them, send me a Tweet or email.

Have an awesome day!

CASIE
