Wednesday Wonders

Hello hello,
Firstly - a very happy birthday to my lovely Connor. Hope 19 is everything you hoped it would be...just try not to throw up in the coat check line.

What about some resolutions. Have I made some? yes. Have I broken some already? you bet! I kinda feel like making a real list is only bound to fail, so I have kinda been thinking of things I need to work on for myself- not so much 'work out' but more like 'be healthier'- how cliche of a resolution...but also 'take advantage of new opportunities'...wishful thinking? See it's not worth spelling them all out- but one thing is for sure- this blog needs to be used again.

I have been reading more magazines than blogs lately (the joys of being home)  which means less pretty thing for you to look at. BUT look here and see how cool it would be to stay in the swiss alps.
And again- they have assembled some wicked room ideas that I daydream about- check it out here.
And what about some insane libraries? Here's quite the collection. Makes me kinda wish I studied there- I'm sure my IQ would increase just sitting there.
And a DIY I plan to do...sometime soon?


Another cover I quite like:



In fact, the whole Florence album that came out in October is insanely wonderful. I'm still finding new songs that I love the more I listen to it. Sadly the Feist CD that came out around the same time failed to live up to my expectations- but I'm still trying.

Another blog I have been meaning to share on here is Kendi Everyday. This is not like cupcakes, nor is it atlantic-pacific, but I just love how this chick puts cute outfits together, with a few lines of hilarious text and I've been hooked. I also like that she shops at Target and Payless - always makes me happy when I see things I love- and they don't cost thousands of dollars.

So that's all for now. Hope you're having a lovely week.

Sunday Song

Photo Dump

Here's everything I have been hoarding, in hopes I'd have time to properly display them. But now it's time to clear the folders and clean up my computer. And you get the treat of pretty things to look at. Sadly I haven't labelled them all- but the majority are from This is Glamourous, Because I'm addicted, Honestly WTF, Cupcakes and Cashmere, and Atlantic-Pacific- so my usual favourites. Enjoy!

2012!

It is a new year- and that means I'M BACK!
Here's a little to catch you up with everything I've been up to...

• The parties revolved around costumes of course- whether it was a pink party to raise money for breast cancer care, a pj party for Movember, or just halloween

• It was my 24th birthday (still not used to that yet!)

• I was given a trip to GREECE for my birthday- which was phenomenal. Pictures here.
• I wrote a bunch of papers. This playlist kept me sane. My fav- is this song:

 

 fun.: We Are Young ft. Janelle Monáe

• I still wish I could just dress every day like this wonderful lady. I mean seriously. 

• I got to spend a week at home with friends and family before heading off to Cabo for Christmas. For those pictures- head here. 

• I read/ am reading three books: The Great Gatsby, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, and now 1984. 

• I spent NYE up at Big White with fab friends and family- playing silly drinking games and laughing our way into the new year. 

So today I am just relaxing and getting ready to go to work in the morning. My bags aren't all unpacked- but the idea of bed is just so much appealing right now. I'm reminiscing about the past year, while trying to work up a list of 'resolutions' to work on for this year. There is so much to look forward to this coming year, but I know it will be the hardest term yet. One thing's for sure- I hope to keep this updated more often!
