Hello & happy Tuesday, friends! Well, I'm supposed to be on bed rest. Haha, but here I am sneaking in a quick outfit post on my way to a doctor's appointment. Once a blogger, always a blogger, right?! But, I'm happy to report I've been regaining my energy + strength, and truthfully I'm kind of a busy body even when I'm feeling under the weather. On another note, are you surprised to see me in...

A Trail Walk & Day-Off Comfy's!

Jul 27, 2012

Yup, here I am in all of my makeup-free glory and wearing my day-off comfy's. I'm not sure if this counts as an outfit post per se, it's more of a "hey, we went out for a walk and took some photos" kind of post. This is typical us on a day off - we usually head down to our favourite ocean-side trail, me with my camera + pooch in tow. And Martin does his favourite thing ever, long-boarding. It's our...

Last Sunday, I met up with some of my favourite gals for a mid afternoon blogger meet-up. Yay, it was so much fun! We met at Cee's city condo, swapped back some of our clothes, nibbled on desserts + drank sparkling water... perfect for me, as I'm trying to be super disciplined and not drink any alcohol. Go me!! ;) Anywho, here are some quick little snaps from our day. I wore my polka dot pencil skirt,...

Hello! Well, I feel like this dress should have a slightly more chipper story to go along with it, but the last few days have been a bit of a mixed bag. Remember a few weeks back when I mentioned I was under the weather & might have a food allergy?! Yup, I sure do. I ended up making several emergency visits to the hospital after breaking out in hives & unable to breathe. Needless to say,...

Look Book: Sunlit Streets & A Lace Trim Dress

Jul 13, 2012

Taking my own photos (well, aside from my adventure posts) has turned into such a fun & creative weekly date. I'd love to start experimenting a little bit more. I'm hoping to find a few old + run down locations and head over during golden hour. I've also been dreaming up a little night shoot... we have a few historic city parts that I'd love to visit: they feature cobblestone streets, old brick...
