Who doesn't like good covers of songs? The best is when a band or singer can actually take another artist's song and pay tribute to the original sound, but also make it their own.

As a dance teacher and choreographer, I'm always catologuing music in my iTunes, especially covers, to pull out for classes and pieces. The "Bad Romance" cover by Mateo inspired one of my favourite combos that I taught this summer - my students were dying to know who the singer was, it's a gem of a cover.

Here's a few of my favourites I've had stashed away in my computer and am falling in love with all over again. Have a cover you're loving? Comment below this post with the link!

Hope you had a good weekend and all the best into the next week!

Sometimes the best weekends are the ones that aren't planned. Sitting by the pool, eating fresh peaches and impromptu dates.

However, what about the times that we can't plan for? Well, as much as we're shaken up, it can (and often is anyway) an opportunity to learn something brand new.

Yesterday, one of the girls got a flat tire. As girls in bikinis stood there and looked at the car, we did the first thing we hadn't done in quite awhile...be quiet.

Multiple phone calls to fathers, friends and stealing a nearby (male) neighbour, we watched with bated breath and wide eyes how to change a tire.

Even at those moments when we think we're all grown up, it's moments like that which spin our heads around and show us how much there is still to figure out. Some might see it as a challenge. I think we saw it as a benefit - there's still time to be youthful, even in our maturity.

I leave you with a little treat - my two favourite British singers Lissie and Ellie Goulding.

Thanks for a lovely last weekend Kelowna, I've pulled out my suitcases and am mentally packing already!
