4 Ways to Find Your Happy Place,  for the longest time I’ve been one of those people who was never satisfied with her present.

4 ways to find your happy place

 

I kept thinking that maybe in a near future I would finally find what my mind and my heart were longing for and I would finally be happy. But then I started thinking, why do I need to wait until I find whatever it is that I think will make me happy instead of trying to be happy right now?

 4 ways to find your happy place

How to find your happy place

Happiness is a process that starts within each one of us. It’s a work in progress and something I will need to work on everyday for the rest of my life.

The people we love and that love us back: I try to create that happiness these days by thinking about all the things I should be grateful for.

All the people that I love and that love me back. For me finding my happy place takes time, especially since I’m such an impatient person and sometimes I fall back into those bad thoughts that leave me thinking that I still need to wait before I will be really happy.

All of our achievements: I find my happy place whenever I think of the things I’ve achieved and accomplished so far in my life.

I also like to think that thanks to those happy and positive thoughts I will be able to achieve even more in the future if I just keep on working hard for it.

Staying focused and keeping busy: Focusing on the tasks I have in front of me everyday keeps my mind going and I don’t have enough time to think negative thoughts or to stress too much about the future.

How to find your happy place

I plan my days the night before and make a list of all the things I will need to do, that way I can check them off one by one as the day goes by and I feel fulfilled and proactive. 

I find my happy place within myself when I am able to kick stress to the curb and enjoy the day without feeling as if I could have done more. 

Pretty things: This one might seem a little superficial, but I believe that surrounding myself with pretty things and things that inspire me and elevate my mood also helps boost my happiness.

This is also one of the reasons why I like dressing up. 

And speaking of dressing up, when Tobi asked me to collaborate together I jumped at the opportunity! I love the pieces featured on the website, every clothing piece is sexy and stylish.

Empowering women to wear whatever they feel like wearing and showing as much skin as they want should be a no brainer. 

 

For this post I decided to pair this cute open back Tobi dress in black with the RitaOraxTezenis bodysuit from the holiday collection.

The combination of these two garments created a beautiful holiday look that I can’t wait to wear again closer to December!

The simplicity of the dress combined with the sparkly bodysuit gives this look a perfect balance. The holiday season can’t come soon enough!

Welcome

Ciao!

My name is Erika, I’m 29 years old, half Canadian and half Italian, I am proud of being both and I never introduce myself as only one or the other. I’m based in Toronto, Canada, but you’ll see me travelling all over the world. On this blog I’m going to share my own, personal style, my favourite beauty products and everything and anything I like or just feel like writing about. I hope you’ll enjoy your stay on my blog!

I spent the last 18 days with my family and friend I spent the last 18 days with my family and friends. I visited my favourite cities, laughed with some of my favourite people and enjoyed my beloved spring, sunny days. 
I left 18 days ago, doubtful and uncertain of the future and I leave soon full of hope. Now it’s time to go. But I go knowing that I will be back soon.
I also need to go check on my cat.

Spring in Italy has always brought me serenity and Spring in Italy has always brought me serenity and hope. When I was younger I would open the door and step outside in the mornings to be greeted by fresh, crisp air and the smell of Spring. I’ve always called it that. The smell of spring is that specific scent you breath in and you immediately know that nature is slowly waking up. It’s  when you know that cherry trees and peach trees are beginning to bloom and that the days are going to get longer and warmer. 
Nature awakens and it reminds me of how much beauty there still is in this world.

Sometimes you're supposed to be vulnerable in front of people. Sometimes it's necessary because it's all part of you getting to the next part of yourself, the next day.”

The beloved gelato pic has landed! Enjoy! Here’ The beloved gelato pic has landed! Enjoy! 
Here’s an unwanted tip that I’m going to share with you anyways: when in Rome ask for panna on top of your gelato. They usually ask you if you want panna, but in case they don’t, just ask! Whipped cream on top of gelato is a must! 
Tip 2: try the stracciatella flavour. I will never not get stracciatella (a milk-based ice cream filled with chocolate shavings) 😍
I came to Rome, I enjoyed the views, I got my inst I came to Rome, I enjoyed the views, I got my insta pic, I waited forever for a pizza that was never delivered and I witnessed a fight between two guys at the train station. I got the full Roman experience. I can now leave the country happy and satisfied. 👌
