"Coffee, mascara, hustle" is basically my morning mantra, so when Dayna of
Dayna Lee Collection approached me to help launch her new series of totes bags, I jumped at the occasion! These totes are perfect for multiple outings (Book bag? Yes! Market bag? Check! Running endless errands around town? You bet'cha!) -- they hold a ridiculous amount and the classic style and colour scheme pairs well with any outfit. Did I mention that Dayna is Canadian and all pieces are handmade within this fabulous country? That's right-- shop and support locally, peeps!
After a busy Saturday morning doing just that (running countless errands), I stopped by the market set up just outside Club Monaco on Bloor Street to enjoy a quiet moment with a perfectly crafted cortado from Box Car Social. The bag proved to be the perfect companion, carrying everything from my newspaper and note pads, recent purchases, and oversized camera along for the stroll!
Dayna Lee designs prints, stationary, and accessories with one goal in mind -- to empower and inspire women. Her quotes are sassy and inspirational and her designs are complete with pretty handwritten type and fun illustrations. Take a look at her
designs and you'll see what I'm talking about. She has such a "get it girl" attitude and I totally admire her for that! I love how Dayna's handwritten quotes are not only witty and honest, but they are there to push you on through your day all while putting a smile on your glowing face. Talk about powerful, yet in the most playful way!
Prints and notepads just scratch the surface of Dayna's collection, and I'm already lusting after a few of her other goodies, like the "Everything's Coming Up Roses"
pillow, and I think the "Her Favourite Things"
scarf would look amazing framed over my desk! I mean…coffee, wine, Paris, peonies… does this girl just get me or what!?
Thank you Danya Lee, for bringing the playful and powerful back into my everyday with this tote!

P.S. How paparazzi-esque are these shots?! These pictures are truly a reflection of my morning hustle -- chugging back a coffee, twisting and maybe-kinda pulling my neck as far as possible to get a good look at gorgeous window displays, all while stopping for a few seconds to smell the roses and flash a smile.
