Classic Tones

The past few days have been blissfully quiet. Just the way I like it! Mornings have been spent going for fall walks with Scout (our pooch) and marveling at all the leaves. Our neighbourhood is just so pretty this time of year... we’re surrounded by mountains, ocean, and so many gorgeous trees. I love seeing them turn rich hues. It’s so inspiring + it immediately lifts my mood. There’s nothing better...

Carrot and Sweet Potato Soup

I'm excited to finally be posting my first recipe. Gosh, I blabbed on about it for long enough, right?! When it comes to cooking, I'm a huge fan of simple & healthy + I love eating as much homemade food as possible. I generally try to avoid anything that's processed or comes from a can, and I stick to buying organic too. So... with the cooler (more like freezing!) temperatures in the air, I've...

A Pop Of Orange

Hello! Guys, firstly thank you so much for your awesome comments regarding my "personal goals" post - your thoughts were so great to read + I loved being able to share my list with you.  I've been on a real roll lately! It started with a closet re-do, that led to a blog make-over (still working out a few kinks) and now I'm working on re-styling our home. Fun, right?! I'm giving it more of a EQ3/modern...

My Personal Goals

Oct 18, 2012

Sorry guys, no second outfit post this week. It seems the flu has hit me hard! I did, however, spend a little time journaling this morning (as I always do) complete with peppermint tea, and realized it's been an embarrassingly long time since I've sat down to write out my goals. I've had lots of time to think & reflect lately, since most of my summer & fall have been spent dealing with health...

Dots & Stripes

My last post was called "morning sun" and I was seriously tempted to call this one "rain monsoon" because that's exactly what we've had the past few days. Ugh, so much rain. I forgot how much I hate wrestling with my purse, umbrella, phone, and my dog... who seems to pull just when I have everything perfectly balanced. Yes, I've been dropping most of my belongings. Haha, I'm such a baby when it comes...

Morning Sun

These photos were taken late last week, right before the temperatures fell. But my goodness, so far this fall has been ridiculously glorious. Warm, so warm, and absolutely no rain. But apparently all good things must come to an end because this week we've been getting hit with cold temperatures and loads of rain. Consider yourselves warned... my next outfit post may include an umbrella, tights &...

Thanksgiving Weekend

Ah, long weekends! We just enjoyed Canadian Thanksgiving this weekend + both Martin & I had four days off. Oh bliss. Is there anything better than time spent with your loved ones and getting to eat ridiculous amounts of pumpkin pie?! Nope, I think not. We also enjoyed some of the warmest fall weather (amazing!), strolled through the village, stopped for some Sunday coffee and ended it all off...

Evolving

Oct 3, 2012

So far this fall, it seems I've been drawn to simple outfits, perhaps not as dynamic to photograph but definitely where my style seems to be heading. I'm loving sharp knee length trench coats, dresses in muted tones (Madewell has the prettiest ones), oatmeal hued cashmere cardigans, and simple heels. Yup, so different from where I was a year ago. What about you guys, are you finding your own...

Quiet Days Of Fall

Oct 1, 2012

Fall seems like the perfect time to slow life down. I've been spending mine making delicious soups & dreaming up cookie recipes, as well as ending my work days off with the most gorgeous walks. I love seeing all of the colours, feeling that crisp air, and seeing the sun set over the ocean. Pretty great! Fall is also my favourite time to reflect and start new projects. So far, I've been working...
