I've been following The Closet Coach as she posts The 5 levels of a Working Mom Outfits. Today my outfit is from Level 3, which she calls Casual Friday or "everyday" working uniform for those of us in more laid-back work situations. On this day the weather report was sketchy and I had errands to [...]
I haven't done a Fashion Follow Friday in a long time. So I thought I'd make a few suggestions based on designs I saw at Spend on Trend last weekend. I love Spend on Trend as it brings such a unique mix of local designers and artisans in one place. There were some old favourites [...]
Happy Easter and Earth Day! If you are looking for eco-fashion content, check out my guest blog at yummy mummy club. Now onto Follow Fashion Friday... I recently discovered a new style blog that I love. I only like to add blogs I truly love and follow regularly to my blogroll. And then of course, [...]
A few weeks back the lovely Harriet at See Theo Run gave me a Stylish Blogger Award. She included me with 5 other fantastic blogging ladies. I think I might have been the literal addition, since I blog about style. But I have to thank Harriet for not only the award, but also being my [...]
I've been following Solo Lisa for quite some time now. She is a local Vancouver fashion blogger and I really love her posts. Yes, she is a younger blogger. But she blogs great ideas that work for women at any age. Recently she started a new job and blogged about easy outfit solutions for early commuters. [...]
Over the past year I have discovered several fantastic local boutiques in Vancouver. I still love my big stores and chains. But I have a special spot in my heart for the local independent retailer. I love independent boutiques with a unique approach to style. And ones that stock quality investment pieces at prices that won't equal your house payment. Here, in [...]
I don't talk a lot about my son in my blog. Frankly because this is one of the few spaces in my life that is not about him. But my having a pre-school aged boy feeds into almost every decision I make about fashion. This morning I wore my new Green Sapphire necklace. It is made of coconut, tree [...]
I met a couple of wonderful out-of-town bloggers at Eco Fashion Week. And I thought they were perfect to profile in a Follow Fashion Friday post. For those new to my blog I "stole" the twitter follow friday concept and moved it to my blog. I like to tell people about why I follow a blog before I [...]
A few weeks ago I posted about the two interesting women that I met at Blogher. I detailed how it was instant blog love for Poppy Buxom. Today I'll tell you about the awesomeness that is Blackbird. Her blog is Say la Vee, Life in an urban town. Three great boys,16,19 and 25, one tall gorgeous husband, [...]
While I was at the Martha Stewart Living party in NYC I walked by a group of women and heard "and she was buck naked." Well like any good Canadian girl I stopped and said "I'm sorry this conversation sounds too interesting not to join you." And I am so glad I was so nosey because I met the [...]
