I'm currently obsessing over structured satchel bags, especially in bright crisp colours. The perfect ladylike piece to polish any spring look. What are some of your spring accessory must haves?

Lately, Honestly


I owe you an apology. When 2013 began I had big plans for this blog. Frequent posts and lots of new and exciting content. Then school hit me, hard. Trying to balance homework, my job, my relationship, and a social life (that only somewhat exists) and of course this blog, was a bit of an adjustment. Well, adjustment over, and I'm happy to say that I'm back, I missed you and I hope you can forgive me!

A few things I have been up to lately have included catching a few glimpses of spring flowers. Checking out the new West Elm Market. Delicious food truck snacks at the Vancouver Farmer's Market. Shopping dates and Photo Booth fun at my favourite boutique, Vincent Park and revamping our teeny tiny office.

Vacation Dreaming

As soon January comes along I instantly long for spring. The winter seems like it may never end and all I want is to escape to a beach. Unfortunately, that is not in the cards for me this winter (sad face), so I am left with simply daydreaming and online shopping. Sigh. 

Above are a few of my must-haves (for my imaginary vacation) or at least for spring! Seriously though, vintage Levis and a scalloped blouse? Perfection.

A few online shops I'm loving right now include My Wardrobe and Burns Jewellers.

Weekend Snapshots

- Brunch at one of my favourite spots The Flying Pig
- Spending the morning at the winter farmer's market with my dear friend Justine
- Coffee date with my love at Nelson The Seagull

Thank you so much for all of your lovely comments and great feedback on my New Year New Goals post. One thing that seemed to stand out on what you want to see more of (other than more outfit posts and recipes, which I'm working on!) was more lifestyle shots that include places to go in Vancouver. And since my weekend was filled with just that, I thought I'd share. 

You may have noticed by now that one of my favourite things to do is to go to the farmer's market. I was so thrilled to discover that the Vancouver Farmer's Market was continuing into the winter, and since it was finally sunny on Saturday I had to check it out. The rest of my weekend included brunches and a lovely triple dinner date, as well as dragging poor Andrew around shopping in Gastown.
