Hello friends, I'm finally back & posting! This week has not been my favourite, I've unfortunately had some vision changes (after injuring one of my eyes) and editing photos has been near impossible -- I'm not happy about it + hoping with all my might it's not permanent, especially since I have my photography business to run. But, here's hoping I'll be back next week with an outfit, or two! Also, you might recall I confessed my love of white tops in last weeks "Styling White Tops For Spring" post and today I'm sharing another favourite "white top" spring combo! And tell me friends... how has your week been?! xo

Cee of Coco & Vera and I were featured on BC Living from last weeks Blubird event. So fun!

This retro bikini is beyond perf and I can't wait to wear it to our pool. All, summer, long!!

Hehe, oh my gosh, so much truth!

Another day, another dress crush, can't wait to add this one to my growing collection, oh-so-soon!

My gal Tieks went to the tulip fields and shared the cutest photos + hello scalloped dress!!

My newest blog crush + love Lauren's sweet & candid writing!

Yes this bag is over budget, but it's beautiful, and a girl can dream! ;)

Today I'm soaking in the sweet, sweet vibes of TGIF! Phew, this week, let me tell ya, I'm feelin' wiped! But all is well, we're planning on laying low & cleaning our apartment on Saturday then on Sunday we're off to explore a historic town in Sumas Mountain called Clayburn Village, which was the first "company town" in British Columbia. Excited! And as for today's outfit inspiration?! I've been on a real red nail-polish kick, am loving delicate stacking rings (Moorea Seal's shop has the prettiest ones) and I can never say no to a gorgeous Modcloth dress. The one below is my current fave and making it's way to my closet, oh-so-soon! On that note, happy weekend, friends! xo

This nautical photo-shoot from Rebecca of A Clothes Horse.

Looking for a yummy pick me up? This Banana Espresso Smoothie is my new fave!

Swooning over these shoes and would totally rock them with a black vintage cocktail dress!

Love dresses with quirky prints and this one is SO darling!

For spring, I'd love to update our living room pillows and these Pottery Barn ones are perf.

Two words, pear & brie pizza. Yes, please!!

Playing this song on repeat, Flume & Chet Faker, Drop The Game!

Also, obsessed with Elsie's dining room wallpaper, oh hello dream home!

I'm ready to make this my new spring uniform. So cute! I can't wait to nab those yellow Madewell sandals. Does anyone know how their shoes fit? Fingers crossed, they run true to size. As for this weekend, it looks the rain gods have spoken because our sun has disappeared. I'm okay with that though... I'm really looking forward to taking it easy and soaking in some fabulous downtime! Really, what could be better?!... Happy weekend, everyone!
Things I'm loving:

This fabulous post on yoga from my blogging pal Gaby of This Little Port.

Love the boho vibe of these gorgeous earrings... so lovely for spring!

Oooh, scarf perfection. Would love to wear mine with skinnies & a loose cami.

Hoping to add this classic beauty to my jewelry collection. I am a diamond addict! Admitting it is the first step, right?!...

Excited to start hiking again this spring & summer. I'm hoping to check out Teapot Hill in Chilliwack!

Lovely to see that Stella & Dot will be donating 20% of the retail price of these pieces for Autism Awareness month!

I've been listening to my springtime playlist all week. Yup, I'm notorious for overplaying my favourite songs.

This floral blazer from Shop Ruche is crazy perfect for spring.... just add a striped tee & light wash skinnies!

Hope everyone enjoyed a lovely Valentine's with friends or a special someone. I surprised Martin with a lovely dinner... I made pasta with a curry/lentil/goat cheese sauce. So good! We then ended it off with strawberries + melted chocolate and chilled on our couch. Kind of perfect, especially since I was recovering from a root canal. Ugh, right?! Oh the pain, and swelling. Not fun! Anywho, onto the outfit, I've been loving the look of blazers and dark denim lately - comfy and perfectly pulled together! Enjoy the links + a happy Friday everyone!!
Things I'm loving:

Mad Men inspired cocktail dresses - perfect for date nights or to grab a drink.

Ah, these shoes!! Every girl deserves a shoe crush, right?!

I love the idea of adding this anchor ring to my spring accessories collection. Too cute!

This is the perfect weekend tote! Yes, please!!

These pretty little danglers would be perfect with jeans or a dress - such a pretty colour too.

I'm looking for new reading glasses and these just might be the ones. So classic & chic!

A two-tone clutch seems like a fantastic new addition to my closet + the price point is fab.

Jeffrey Campbell can do no wrong... these sweet little flats are too precious for words.
