Hooray for holidays! We’re heading to Seattle to take advantage of the long weekend. I know it may seem silly, but it excites me that I will be back in my country even if I’m only a couple hour drive away. I’ve never really spent any time in Seattle either so I’m pumped to finally explore the city. I plan on bringing my camera along to take some fun shots. I’ve been really bad at taking photos with my dslr and instead have over 1,000 iPhone photos. Will definitely work on that! What’s your weekend looking like? Hope whatever you’re up to, it’s an awesome one.

favourite libations

I’m sharing my favourite cocktails for your next soirée on Spitfiregirl. Note: you may feel the sudden urge to leave work and whip up a drink instantly. Don’t worry – we won’t judge you. Happy Wednesday, lovelies!

good vibes

April & May have been filled with tons of uncertainty that has left me spinning in circles, but with the motivation to just keep going regardless of the “what ifs” I’ve been able to appreciate all the wonderful happenings in life lately. Like..

+ Signing a lease! It sure was a lengthy hunt, but it’s over now! eaa:) I’m pretty excited to move in this cute little apt! (see yard above)
+ Brilliant conversation with inspiring Vancouver women over cocktails & cupcakes (new collaborations!)
+ New design work with fun & open-minded clients
+ Dreaming up my summer vacation
+ Gushing over Leo’s performance in The Great Gatsby. I don’t care what the reviews say. He was phenomenal.
+ Enjoying the rain after a week of the most gorgeous weather.

Sending good vibes your way for a great week!

where to?

The time has come to put in summer vacation requests. My original plan consisted of a week in France & a week in Germany and while I’m not ruling that out just yet, I’d like to consider a few other options. Where do you think I should head to next? Any suggestions? I’m even open to cities that are not listed here:) Ready. Go!

mini road-trip

Over the weekend a friend was visiting from out of town so we decided to take a spontaneous trip up to Whistler with a pitstop in Lynn Canyon. The drive was absolutely gorgeous. I needed the change of pace and breath of fresh air. I may have pinched myself one too many times in disbelief of how lucky I am to live in such a beautiful place.

* sorry about all the shoe shots. I’m totally diggin’ the blue in them, though! Finally putting these new kicks to use after receiving them for Christmas from my little brother. Little dude has style:)

ps: I’m sharing some inspiration for a dapper gentleman look at your next event on spitfiregirl – go check it out!

weekend!

This weekend will be full of mini celebrations & adventures! I’ve been working on something huuuge at work and we just sealed the deal yesterday evening! I received the phone call on my walk home & seriously did the happy dance x 10. Thank goodness there weren’t any pedestrians nearby. I was ready to hug everyone in sight – don’t you just love that feeling? I’ll hopefully be able to share tidbits with you here & there.

What are you up to this weekend? Any big plans? Hope it’s a fun one!
