Beautiful Room and Gifts

Emma, over at The Marion House Book, shared the pictures from her re-vamped nursery - now ready for a little girl.  I love all the soft colours and natural textures.  It is just so sweet, all the little bunnies and stuffed animals melt my heart!

Chapters / Indigo across Canada has wonderful things for babies these days.  I always swoon when I go into the store.  It's a great place to look if you are going to a baby shower.  




All available at Indigo, online here.

Back Again . . .

Image from Canadian House and Home July 2009 Issue

With the hot weather in Ontario these days, I'm feeling a lot more like I should be at the cottage than at work.  It's been a busy spring, moving apartments and marking endless essays and english projects, which is why I've been so absent from the blog!

Here are a few things catching my eye:

Do yourself a favour and visit this awesome House and Home TV - Modern Home. It's an eco home with tons of beautiful furnishings and really cool elements.  (Thanks for giving me the heads up Mom!)

I'm really hoping there are fresh strawberries the market in a few short weeks. There is nothing better that the little sweet local ones.

This album is in very, very, very heavy rotation.  Whether you think you like John Mayer or not, you should absolutely listen to this song, and then to the entire album, then go out and buy it.  Phenomenal. 

The Blythe Blouse from J. Crew is one of my favourite pieces of clothing for work and for play.  It can be dressed up or down, is light and breezy while very chic and sophisticated.  I have two in my closet, a dark olive and a bright teal.  This neon rose shade is really catching my eye.  After all, coral-y pinks are pretty much my favourite thing, I do have a very beloved coat that is nicknamed the "pylon" coat.


I just think this couple is double crush-worthy.  He is so handsome, and she always looks luminescent.  I love this dress she (Diane Kruger) wore at Cannes.  Yes, it's over the top for the real world maybe, but she just looks so beautiful.

Dress Me Up


Two pretty white dresses that grabbed Erin's attention over at Elements of Style.


A Victoria, Victoria Beckham dress that is whimsical, oh so chic, and oh so sold out.


The Market Tank Dress from Madewell is the perfect summer dress. That's when I just want to throw something on that doesn't need much else, something that is easy breezy!

Gorgeous in Gold



Emma Stone looks simply gorgeous in gold attending the opening night of Death of a Salesman (one of the greatest plays of all time in my humble opinion) in NYC. Photo 1, Photo 2.

Home Lovin

I am obsessed with this woodsy wallpaper from Anthropologie. I almost want to buy one roll to make a statement wall . . .except I'd have to do it on a board or something because I'm still a renter!

My all time favourite home, seen on my blog a few years ago, and found today on Little Green Notebook.

Best Dressed at the Oscars




My three favourite ladies (and dresses) from the Academy Awards on Sunday. I just thought they were all so classy, pretty, chic, and appropriate for the occasion.

Garance Dore is pretty cool, and you can see how wonderful she is by watching episodes of Pardon My French on her fabulous blog. Lots of entertainment, beautiful photos, and fashion to feast on! xo

Summer Breeze


Pretty in Pink from Elizabeth and James.

Soft, easy and breezy - a great summer dress on the Jill Stuart runway.

A sweet polka dot bathing suit from Madewell makes me wish that it was time to jump in the lake at the cottage.

Purple Shorts from J. Crew have that juicy punch that only summer seems to pack!


Cute summer outfit - ahhh warm weather please come quickly!
