{Posing with Jessica Mulroney, Amara and Jackie} |
Upper Canada Mall invited Jackie, Amara and myself to bring our mommas to the event and make a fun day out of it. We spent the morning decorating a -you guessed it- shoebox and filled it with items generously donated from Upper Canada Mall retailers. My mom and I loved having the chance to customize and decorate our box. It really does create more of a personal connection for the woman receiving the box, don't you think? We filled the inside with inspiring quotes that I know the woman receiving our box will smile at! The generosity of the retailers was amazing to see, not to mention all the ladies who came out to support the project and give back to the community.

Afterwards we had a chance to talk to Jessica and learn more about the project. I love how the Shoebox Project for Shelters makes an effort to provide these women with, not only essential items like toothbrushes and toothpaste, but "little luxuries", that really have the power to make women feel special. They are the items that you necessarily wouldn't splurge on yourself but have the ability to brighten your mood and lift your spirits on the worst of days. This got me thinking... what are the ultimate "little luxuries" to you? I've rounded up 5 little luxuries that made their way into our shoebox. I can't wait for it to be opened and make some lovely lady's day!

1. Bath Bomb- Lush: To create the ultimate spa experience without going to the spa!
2. Handcrafted Chocolates- Purdys: A fine chocolate it such a simple pleasure, and always has the power to put a smile on my face.
3. Nailpolish- Shoppers Drug Mart: Nothing like a fresh mani to make yourself feel fabulous!
4. Lipstick- Sephora: Lipstick has the power to transform with just on swipe. A bright lip really does have mood lifting capabilities!
5. Perfume- Shoppers Drug Mart: Getting a whiff of an intoxicating new scent always makes me feel luxurious.
