Sorry the blog was super quiet last week. I had a great excuse - my Mom, Hannah and I were in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and my resort had no Wifi. We had a mostly relaxing vacation (I say mostly because Hannah and I returned with some sort of cold/flu bug, fabulous for flying...) and Toronto welcomed us home yesterday with more snow.
Winter is easily my least favourite season. Skating and skiing aside, after Christmas, I want it to immediately be spring. The only positive thing about winter for me is this - sweaters. Nothing beats a comfy, gorgeous, weight-gain hiding sweater. So while I am sad to wash my summer clothes and pack them away for next few months, after all the fabulous food I ate on vacation I'm thankful my sweaters literally have my back (and, uh, love handles). Having a January baby, most of my sweaters are also sentimental to me - they grew with Hannah in my belly and thankfully took back their original shape postpartum.
This winter, Downy is challenging Canadians to share their favourite fashion looks that make them want to rip their clothes on. How? Sprinkle a little Downy Unstopables into your load of laundry and your clothes will smell oh so fresh you’ll just have to cuddle up with your loved ones!
Downy Unstopables are also great for getting rid of smells - especially when potty-training toddlers have expected accidents. You just sprinkle some into the washer at the beginning of the wash and your clothes, towels and linens come out smelling more fabulous than they ever did before! Added bonus - the scent lasts for up to 12 weeks.
One lucky YYZ Bambina reader will win a #RipYourClothesOn bundle valued at approximately $45 including Downy Unstopables, Ultra Downy & a $25 Joe Fresh gift card!
Two of my favourite sweaters are from Joe Fresh. One is a brown sparkly number that makes a drab winter day fab, and the other is a comfy black sweater that is super slimming - I like it so much I actually wore it last Christmas, as you can see in the photo below.
I love that I can shop for clothes in Real Canadian Superstore and Loblaw banner stores across Canada while picking up Downy products at the same time.
