the peter pan collar

I've been a bit enamored with this lovely little trend as of late. I believe there's something very youthful & playful about the peter pan collar, perhaps because it reminds me of the yesteryears of my childhood.
Keep in mind, you don't need to look like a todler in this type of shirt. Pair it with some lovely pearls or some very grown-up earings to complete the look! loves it!

All grown up

If you are my age, you'll probably remember the mid 90's pretty well and when Madonna was pregnant with little Lourdes "Lola" Ciccone Leon!
Well, fast forward 14 years and you have a mature 13 year old carbon copy of the Madge herself! Already at such a young age you can totally see what a strong & fierce sense of style she has. I'm excited to see what's to come for this young famous offspring.

There's nothing that reminds me more of Spring than these covet-worthy peach oxfords by Dieppa Restrepo, a shoe design duo hailing from Mexico. Their sophisticated unisex shoe collection is to die for! I heart them all!

Happy Friday!

Today as I was walking towards Waterfront station, I looked north and was in awe by the beauty of our snow-capped mountains. The combination of a beautiful sunny day and that incredible view...It's moments like that that make me appreciate and LOVE living in Vancouver.

I am on high envy mode every time I see a picture of a gal that can rock a short pixie crop and these actresses have just the right amount of confidence to do it! It doesn't hurt to also have great bone structure and delicate features either!

A girl can dream can't she?

I ordered this gem of a book from Amazon.com a couple of months ago. In a nutshell it's a Paris vintage shop directory! I could die!

If I could help it, I'd be on the next plane to Paris scouring all these little shops & looking for vintage treasures. I was fortunate enough to visit Paris for the first time last summer but because time was limited, I didn't really have the opportunity to visit a lot of the shops detailed in this book.

You can bet my next trip (and yes there will indeed be many more) I will surely have it by my side to help map out my shopping excursions;)

When I lay eyes on Nicole Richie's daughter Harlow my heart sings in I way I never knew possible. She is the cutest thing in the world!
