Hi, I’m Mariam

I am a Toronto-based content creator who has a passion for supporting local small businesses with a focus on fashion and lifestyle. I have an obsession with visiting local markets and discovering makers from across Canada. I want to show you the talent that grows in this community. I'm so glad you're here - take a look around!

Let’s be friends!

Patiently waiting for my next course ❤
Although this Eid was spent working, hubby and I still managed to have a very delicious dinner at @chottomattetor

Swipe to 🤤

Everything was SO flavourful and full of texture but I would skip the Machu Picchu Mountain dessert (way to many kernels and overall not a great mix of flavours).

Tell me how you celebrated Eid or Tuesday 😀

This summer I hope to explore more neighbourhoods

This summer I hope to explore more neighbourhoods that make up Toronto, like the Junction because one of my favourite things to do is discover and support small shops.

On a recent walk, I saw and managed to have a very quick peek around @beauandbauble just as they were about to close. The shop is so cute! From the baby blue exterior to the heavenly scent the minute you walk in to the general layout of store - it's super cozy. I hope to be back to properly show you or hey, if you're in the neighbourhood, check it out!

Which neighbourhood or shop should I visit next?

Yes, I'm that weirdo who still enjoys hot chocolate in the summer. But in my defence, we were having some kind of cold spell and having something warm and chocolately felt so good! Cuppa brought to you by @brodflour

Also this will be the coldest summer ever, so that's something to think about 😬

Details of the lovely jewelry pieces that I've bee

Details of the lovely jewelry pieces that I've been wearing non-stop! Everything is handmade from @hartandstone - a small shop all the way from Salt Spring Island on the western coast of Canada 🌊 Keep reading for a discount code!

Bobbi ring 🌈 I have been searching for the perfect large gemstone ring and had this one saved in my phone for so long. Happy it's finally part of the family. It has a rainbow moonstone that shines so beautifully in the light.

Beams ring ☀️ I have a few simple hammered stacking rings and I like how this one is just a little different. If you like signet rings but find them too masculine, this is a great alternative.

Janis bracelet 💫 A few weeks ago I asked you on my stories whether you liked pearls. The majority did and so do I! I love that each freshwater rice pearl has a different shape which really adds character and makes it less grandma-esque.

Bar Chain bracelet ✨ Similar to the Beams rings this is a twist on a classic layering piece. I can see myself stacking this with literally any other piece or watch or on it's own.

All of the jewelry is gold-filled with means it has a solid layer of gold over sterling silver, preventing it from tarnishing, or losing it's colour. Wear these pieces will ease every day and in the shower too!
