The Hudson's Bay Company Belgian Milk Chocolate a.k.a. The Best Chocolate Ever

With Valentine’s Day almost here, talking about chocolate seemed like a good idea. I have a huge sweet tooth and to me there is never a bad time for chocolate. So, seeing has Valentine’s Day and chocolate go together, I thought I would share with you my favorite chocolate.

Every year before Christmas, The Bay releases a line of a sweet treats ranging from cookies, candies and the chocolate they have is the best I’ve ever had. It’s a lovely Belgian milk chocolate that’s not too sweet but feels decadent. It just tastes unbelievably good. It comes in a variety of sizes, from the standard 100g. bar, truffles and my personal favorite: the 1kg bar that comes in a lovely metal tin. I mean, who could say no to that.  All the chocolates come in cute packaging that changes every year. The current one is very Valentine’s Day appropriate with a pink and brown color palette.

You can find the Hudson’s Bay Company Belgian Chocolate in any Bay store (stocks may vary) and online you can find the 1kg bar for 19,99$ and the truffles for 11,99$. These are special prices since they are currently on sale, so I wouldn’t wait too long if you’re interested.

What’s your favorite chocolate?

The Bay's Olympic Mittens

One of my winter must-have every year is a new pair of mittens to protect my hands from the cold and add a touch of color to my outfits. For the past four years or so, the mittens from The Bays’ Olympic Collection have been winners for me. Every winter, they come up with a new design whilst keeping Canada’s color: red and white, and adding a touch of black to keep them fashionable. They are made of acrylic, giving a woollen look on the outside, but the lining is made of polyester. This combination keeps your hands warm and cozy without causing any irritation to the skin like woollen mittens can do.

With the purchase of these mittens, a portion of the profits goes to the Canadian Olympic Foundation to help support our athletes. This is a great way to support our athletes as well as adding a fashionable and useful accessory to your winter wardrobe.

You can find the Olympic mittens at The Bay for 10$ and they are also available online.  

The Softest Robe

This Christmas, my mom surprised me with the softest most gorgeous robe from DKNY. Words cannot describe how comfortable and soft it is on both the inside and the outside. It always keeps me warm and the large pockets are super convenient. This robe also has lovely satin detailing on the sash as well as on the pocket with the DKNY logo. On a side note, it’s made of polyester, making it easy to wash. The best part however is that it is currently on sale for 59$ at The Bay and you can get it in either grey or pink.

I highly recommend you have a look in your local store but you can find it on The Bay website and I also managed to find it on the Selfridges website (though it’s not sale there) where it comes in grey, cherry and white.
