Floral Sundresses



I am totally loving the floral trend right now! It's just so... pretty! Don't you love these three versions found at Anthropologie? What a great way to look like a lady!

Kate For The Win


So  I wasn't going to post about the dress, but then I though, why not. So, y'all, what do you think of this royal gown? Will it spring a lust for lace in bridal salons across the country? It's very reminicent of Princess Grace Kelly's wedding dress, isn't it? It's a bit formal, but really, do you think the queen would let Kate get away with a revealing cocktail style dress? Probably not.
So...Love it or leave it?

P.S. if you haven't checked out Kate Middleton For The Win, you should.

Hail Britannia

It's all things british today, isn't it? Or all things royal! Love this picture of Anthropolgie's British display from when they first opened in London. Way to celebrate the Union Jack in style!

Panda Playing

 
Back from vacay and busy like a bee. There is work to do, there is hockey to watch, there is room cleaning to do, there are friends to see. So in the meantime while I come up with something better, here is a cute and fuzzy panda bear for you to ogle. Is it giving you a bright smile? I certainly hope so! If not you should get your cute sensors checked!

White Lace Scallop Dress

Picked up this fantastic pretty dress in Palm Beach last week. I wore it to both a Passover brunch, as well as an Easter dinner. That's just how I roll. If you're in the States, check it out. It fits like a dream, and shows just enough leg to still be sexy (while its looser shape keeps it classy). Love it.

Pearl Vine Necklace

Love this handmade (they make them to order, and can change the colours based on your preferences) necklace. It's so delicate, but also complicated. It would look GREAT with a strapless dress.

Street Style: Expecting Rain

Fantastic trench. Trenches are a good part about living in places that have real fall and spring seasons. Right? Right? I mean, summer all the time? Who wants that? Right? Right?

Engagement Captured





How amazing and romantic is this? Mara of M loves M shares the story of how her fiancee arranged for a photographer to secretly take pictures of their proposal date. He presented the photos to her in a book for her bridal shower, 7 months after the engagement. What a fantastic gift! This allowed them to have their moments together without having to worry about taking pictures, and still capturing these memories in a beautiful way. Can you imagine the surprise? Nice work Matthew!

H&M Striped Dress

This is what I'm seriously hoping I'm buying right now. There is only one H&M near West Palm Beach, so we'll see if I can make it out there.Not that we don't have H&M's here. We have dozens! But, seeing as I am cheap, and seeing as the prices are better in the US, I figure I might as well try and buy it there! (Especially since our Canadian dollar is doing so well!)

Most Amazing Love Story

Things are not always as they seem. To those whose love stories are just beginning, or just ending, have faith. You never know where you will find your amazing love story.

Sunday Home Tour: LA Glamour










I'm super impressed how the owner of this rented apartment has mad 600 sq ft look like a million bucks! Especially considering she spent most of her money at second hand stores and flea markets, as well as online at Etsy, Craigslist and Ebay. Just goes to show you that you don't need a lot of money or space to have a great home... but it does help if you have a great eye. I don't have a great eye. Someone help me?

Off to Coachella

Headed to L.A. today!! From there we (me and 4 stinky boys) are renting a car and driving into the desert.
Wish me luck! I've put up a few posts to "appear" while I'm away, so don't fret, there are still lots of things to smile over! Hoping to spend the next week enjoying the sun and my friends, and then after that I fly over to Florida to enjoy my family (and the beaches and shopping).
Back in a bit, have a great time while I'm gone!

Asymmetric Cut Out Suit

One more bathing suit to add to the lust list. Although I do not know if I could pull this off anymore. Five years ago? Yes. Still, it's quite striking, isn't it?

Cake Party

My current iPhone background. I am thinking about buying a print. It's it fantastic? What a cute little image to have tucked away in a dressing room or in a powder room?

Sunday Home Tour: California Cool












 
 Love this home. It's got a great use of colour and white, old and new. You can tell it's full of love and energy. So many personalized touches, but in a really organized way. So much inspiration here!

Kate Spade 25% off

Hi everyone. Just a little mid-Friday update to say if you loved Jillian and Bette, then you might want to check out Kate Spade's current Friend's and Family sale. Today and Saturday only, 25% off your entire purchase including sale items. Just a note however. The free shipping only applies if you live in the United States. Shipping is $49 if you live in Canada. BOOO. What is that??? 
So this coupon is probably of more use to my American readers (who now outnumber my Canadian readers significantly!)

Jetsetting in Style





Less than a week until I start jetsetting all over North America (and beyond?) While it's been 6 weeks since I've been on a plane (it actually feels like it's been longer!), I soon will start a 8 flights in 7 weeks jaunt crisscrossing across North America. I do seem to spend most of my time between coasts. Toronto>LA>West Palm Beach>Toronto>Calgary>Vancouver>Toronto and the wildcard, a yet to be decided vacation. Paris? New York? Chicago? Costa Rica? Only time will tell! The downside of so much travel? All the times on planes! I'm not one to schlep onto planes in sweat pants and hoodies, but neither do I look quite as refined as these ladies above. Let this be my inspiration! If I'm behaving like a jetsetter, I had better look like one! 


(P.S. I'm not really cool. I just like to sound like I am by throwing the word "Jetsetter" around. Forgive me?)
