I could hear the angels whispering...




Over sized t-shirt (XXI), cut-offs (old AE Jeans), heels (UO), cuff (bali), watch (Buffalo), ring (Myka)

M and I went to the Blitzen Trapper show last night. Très bon! If you ever get a chance to see this band live-Do. You will not be disappointed. Anyways Vancouver is having a MAJOR heat wave...not that I'm complaining, it just doesn't leave alot of options when in reality I feel like walking around naked!

A lil leopard anyone?!















As most of my friends can tell you I'm a wee bit into leopard. I bought a faux fur leopard print jacket a few years back and it's so fucking glamorous I feel as if I should be sipping a dry martini with Alexis Carrington and appearing in an episode of Dynasty.

Ok back to 2009 Isabel Marant has captured a new way to mix elegant with casual in an extraordinary FW09 Collection. My inner glamazon is giddy over the streetwise combination's of fur jackets, slouchy tees, grey sweats, and amazing floral mini's. Très bon!

The soundtrack to MY life

Do you ever hear a song and think 'if they ever make a movie about my life, this song would be included' ? Well I do. And these are a few of the 'soundtracks to my life'

Blitzen Trapper - Furr
Lykke Li - Well anything by her. She's fucking rad.
Okkervil River - Lost Coastlines
The Lovely Feathers - Lowiza
MGMT - Time to Pretend
Bob Sinclair - Love Generation
TI Feat Rhianna - Live you Life
Wintersleep - Weighty Ghost
Brandi Carlile - The Story
Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Don't Forget Me

That's all I can add now...have to get back to work
!

Effortless



I've been noticing Alexa Chung for quite some time now and I've always been inspired by her style. In fact of any fashionable figure, she seems the most real, and her style reflects my own. Cool, confident, an eclectic mix of old and new, a bit disheveled but always pulled together.

My Mondays


I think Monday nights are one of my favorite nights of the week...making a delicious dinner, cozy time with M, ice cream, sometimes I'll do a pedicure and guilty pleasure TV (The Hills, The City, or lately the Bachlorette) Hmmm Mondays xo

Clap your Hands

TV on the Radio - Golden Age

New do, New day.


I'm getting my hair cut tomorrow. I'm going back to blonde and I'm really liking Alexa Chung's hair in this photo. I also love her outfit. There is something to be said for the disheveled and ease of this look. Very confident. And I love seeing flats. Which reminds me I bought a similar pair of marvelous sandals last year in Bali.

PS Photos of new do and shoes to follow.. xx

The joys of much too much?!


I have been so uninspiring lately…lifeless and story-less. I made a choice to leave my job..maybe not the smartest idea with the whole 'recession' happening. But I really could not do it anymore. I want to feel inspired, I want to feel creative and excited when I wake up in the morning. Is that too much to ask? I’m very much future-oriented, and as often as ideas come pouring out of my mouth, I have always been working towards a 5 year plan. I know what I want, and I am determined and, until recently, quite focused. Not ambitious, just well-planned. At present, I now feel as if I am pulling over onto the side of the road, reaching for my map and thinking whether I still want to go to the destination I had planned to. As I look at the map, I am surprised of how many new places there are that I haven’t been aware of. And even when I still want to reach my initial destination, there are so many new ways. There’s just, so much of life to experience and so many hidden paths to uncover. Life can take us on an amazing journey if we let it. I want the ones I love along for my journey. I just need to look at the bigger picture and figure out the most exciting route! I know this is random, but these are the thoughts currently taking over my mind. :D


PS I've decided these shoes will complete my wardrobe. Although I always say that when I find a killer pair of shoes. I loves you M ;) xx
