Day 14: Autumn Jean Shorts






What happens when you bring your 3 year old on a mini photo shoot? A distressed face. Example: photo 1. Not that there weren't any giggles going on but this happened to be the most useable photo....ahhh, c'est la vie! These are the joys of parenting a toddler...one can never know what the day may hold. But what I've been learning is the need to make the most out of any day...and that is a lesson that I will continue to learn with whatever may come my way. Happy Hump Day!

Day 13: Jean on Jean & Elephants Too!





I'm really loving the scarves that Stella & Dot has come out with in their new holiday line! This one is in a poppy shade with cute fuchsia elephants. So whimsical! A scarf can really pull a look together in the fall and winter. It can also bring a little bit of personality to your style. Also, don't forget that coloured jeans are not just for the warmer months...you can rock them anytime! So don't put them away just yet... layer it up for a casual look. They look great paired with riding or cowboy boots! Happy Monday!

Day 12: Mint, Snake & Peplum







So it snowed a few days ago and then just as soon as it got here it went away (well, almost). Excuse the goosebumps on my arm while I warm up inside with a bowl of homemade soup. Also, did you notice my tights (aka pantyhose, nylons etc... whatever you wish to call them)? I realize that for a while they were considered the "granny panties" of the fashion world, but hey... a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do. And if the Duchess of Cambridge can pull them off then why can't I? Am I right ladies?

Shoes: Aldo

Day 11: A rose gold, coral, leopard kind of day.









Oh boy....I have a lot of explaining to do! It feels like months since my last post and I think I have some very good excuses as to why that has been the case. First of all, our 6 month old iMac died. *sad face* Another hard drive and a few new updates later...I have my lifeline back again. Ya! And then the dreaded flu of the season came for a visit (and he hasn't quite left yet...). And of course the weather has been going over to the dark side...meaning winter is just around the corner. Yes, way up here in northern Canada we really only have 2 seasons: (ok, that is a bit of a joke...) a very long, dark and cold winter and then a very short and sweet summer. But I really can't complain this year because have you seen what I am still standing on? Yes it's GREEN grass and it's OCTOBER! And that my friends is cause for celebration!
