Breakfast in Paris

Over at Simply Seductive, I came across this photo of someones breakfast - who just so happens to live in Paris! What a treat it would be to wake up every morning, step out on to your balcony and enjoy a hot cup of coffee.
I usually drink green tea but that doesn't stop me from occasionally indulging in an espresso.
I just returned from my relaxing organic facial at Oresta and I am drinking rejuvenating & restoring tea. What a lovely start to the long weekend!

Pretty Perfumes

I have a collection of pretty perfumes scattered across my dresser and placed in front of the mirror to be put on display. Every morning I switch up the fragrance depending on my mood and often in response to the weather. When it's cold and the snow is falling, I spritz on a bold scent to liven my day. In the warmer months, I use my lights scents often mixing two together for an original fragrance.
What's your scent?

Let's Picnic!

Good morning!
After a great weekend in Montreal, I am ready to settle in for a bright & sunny week. Recently, I've had my eyes peeled for the perfect picnic basket in hopes of taking my lunch to a park to eat with friends while catching up over a few glasses of bubbly (but of course!)
Wouldn't it be lovely to picnic today?

Tatler Russia

Feast your eyes on one of my favorite editorials for May.






The whimiscal attidude of this spread incombination with the dazzling styling by Anya Ziourova (Valentino, Dior and Chanel Haute Couture!) is shot in an ideal setting which brings out my desire for fancy frocks & a tall glass of champagne!

Little White Dress (LWD)

I tend to wear a lot of black during the bleak winter months -- it becomes my uniform. The perfect little black dress (LBD) is always at the top of my list of essential items to own & I am always on the hunt to find as many as possible.
Every year when spring starts to show its colors, my ying turns to yang and I am immediately out on the prowl for the perfect white dress. The ingredients of the perfect LWD involves being chic yet casual, light but not see-though, and something that balances on the line of being suitable for both day and night. If you have yet to guess, I don't own such a dress... but I'm certain that when I find it -- it will be love at first sight!

I want to wake up in this dream.

Ultimate Relaxation

I've recently taken to the bath. It must be the salts. If you have never had a bath with Epsom salts, I recommend buying some tonight and pouring yourself a bath to remember. Glass of wine optional.

Absolutely dreamy.

Now say 'cheese'.

A Room of One's Own

This weekend I picked up 3 new pairs of boots. Living in Canada requires that you own a small collection of boots for various occasions and for the changing weather. Simply owning a pair of Uggs just won't cut it.
This photo makes me smile, because whoever owns this room knows how important it is to sit down and try on shoes until you get the right pair. Oh, and see that wall of shoes? All in due time...

Light as a Feather

Look at that skirt!
I've always wanted a feather skirt. I doubt I'd get it in white, even though it would make the outfit look angelic.

HeadBands


I'm in the market for a headband like this one pictured above. It would be nice if it didn't give me a headache by noon too.

Ray Bans


All summer long I've seen the wayfarer (or a similar style) on anyone who has recently invested in a pair of shades.
I've gotten a lot of comments on my Ray Bans which I got last Christmas. They are perfect! You'd never guess by simply looking at them that they fold. They fold at the lenses, at the mid-part of the arms, and into a compact shape. They are perfect for tossing into your purse instead of wearing them in your hair.
They are still available and you can get them here.
You're welcome.

Want: Sequins

If you have yet to acquire something with sequins, I highly suggest getting an item even if you only use it for dress-up. It's one of the easiest ways to dress up an outfit.
If a full sequin dress is too much, opt for a sequin skirt or detailing.

Want: Flower Bath


There's something about a hot bubble bath at the end of a long day....
Adding flowers isn't a bad idea either!

Want: Pink

I've always wanted a pair of playful pink jeans.
I'd match them with a with a black tank top and a black blazer or cardigan for a sophisticated look. Pink on black would make them pop!
