Last weekend Martin & I decided on a spontaneous day trip. We went to visit the cutest little fisherman's inspired village, just a mere 20 minutes from our home. It's situated right on the river, which had huge sheets of ice floating on it (crazy!) that's pretty unusual for us.  We spent our day walking around, peeking at the shops, took photos and then visited a local pub for some delicious...

Wow, we took these photos lightning fast! Don't be fooled by my calmness, it was absolutely freezing out, but rest assured I had a nice coat to bundle in to once our shoot was over. This week, hubs & I have been busy little bees. Martin is working on getting his masters of education in fine arts (yay, so happy for him!) and I've been keeping my hands full with way too many projects. But no whining...

Martin & I were lazy, lazy bums this weekend and it felt sooo good! On Saturday, we took advantage of the relatively mild temperature and went to explore a fisherman's village just 20 minutes from where we live - it was so nice to get out and do something different. Yay! I'll be sharing those photos with you early next week. The rest of the weekend was spent doing a few DIY decorating projects...

Hooray! No shivering for me during outfit photos today. I just picked up this adorable coat at H&M and as you can imagine, it's quickly turned into my favourite winter staple. I've been wearing it with pretty much everything. This winter I've been absolutely obsessed with faux fur. Anyone else?! It's such a fun & easy way to add a quick pop of glam to any outfit. And on that note, I can't...

Brr, the cold & snow have finally hit and we are expecting a lot more later this week. Fun!! I love taking our  pooch (aka cutie patootie!) out for snowy strolls; he gets insanely excited and runs in crazy circles around me - it's super cute & hilarious! And nothing beats going for snowy romantic walks with Martin. We love heading down to the ocean and seeing it all covered in white......
