Three things I am obsessing about:

I searched high a low for a white tray to place on my bathroom counter. I always find the bathroom counter to be the most unorganized area in the home. I can’t keep everything in the drawers and I personally like to leave the stuff I use every day out in the open for easy access. Luckily, my boyfriend came home with the perfect white tray from Parliament Interiors in Gastown. It keeps all my stuff framed and organized on the counter.

I found the cutest little store on Main Street called Much & Little. The owner, Sarah Savoy curates the most beautiful housewares that bodies simplicity, quality and function. I immediately gravitated towards the star perforated food strainer and I knew it had to come … more …

My first “lately” post for 2012. I know that technically in the fashion world we are in pre-Spring mode…but here in Vancouver we are just getting snow and it’s mid January. However, it’s not stopping me from wearing my pony haired, leopard print, smoking loafers (www.sterlingshoes.com, $69.95). I say “screw you winter boots!”

Because I was plan old curious, I ordered a bucket bag from www.shoedazzle.com. (Please spare me the cheese and please don’t judge).

The quality of the man-made material bag was impressive and the shipping was speedy. They also didn’t charge me extra for duty once it arrived to my door which is … more …

Over the holidays I’ve been busy with some simple D.I.Y. home projects, trying to make use of some old things. I found a great use for some old pictures frames and I’m kinda in love with my D.I.Y. creation:

1. I had these old box frames with a linen backing. I took out the glass (which I will use this for something else I have planned).

2. I took your basic push pins and I poked them into the linen back board to act as holders or hooks.

3. I took all my sunglasses and I hung them on the push pin holders and voila. A cool and simple way to keep my sunglasses all in order.

There’s your D.I.Y. for this week!

2011 was the year of the edit for me, a time to focus on the things that needed more attention and to spend more time with the people that mean the world to me. I also felt this year to be a little disjointed. Things felt kind of out of place, there was a lot of changes in my personal and work life that I couldn’t control but even when life causes some unexpected weather patterns during my flight, I ultimately am the one behind the controls. At the end of every year, we all feel the need to re-assess our lives, start fresh, re-think our goals and we all of a sudden feel the need for enlightenment. Well, this is where I’ll start my little list of new life … more …
