simple style...


There's something so perfect about an antique chair covered in white linen... a comfy place to collapse in the evening or to snuggle into with a cup of tea. I'm officially on the hunt for a chair cover like this to create the comfy lived-in look at home... i'm sure there's lots out there, but any good suggestions?

barely there...



Good Monday morning... skies have started off clear and sunny early today, with that perfect shade of icy blue, but with threats of a severe snowstorm later this week, it all seems like the calm before it all. I guess it's still January afterall, which is why i'm loving these soft shades of french blue... grey and slightly dull, but perfectly elegant, don't you think? I especially love the little hint of sparkle captured on the pillow. Now, where do I find that duvet cover?

A little late with my usual Friday post this weekend, as it seems as soon as the weekend arrives suddenly the time flies right by... I wish that was the case for the weekdays instead! Enjoyed dinner out last night with a movie and vanilla lattés, yummy french pastries this morning, followed by some shopping and an anniversary dinner tonight! Plus, I managed to scoop up my favourite BR jeans for only $23. (Seriously, if you haven't tried Banana Republic's jeans, you really need to do so.)

I'm also happy to announce tonight, that the winner of the Tiny Prints giveaway is Caitlin, congrats! I'll be in touch soon, and thank you to everyone who entered!

Ending with some weekend links of course... but first, how cute is the table above with its little scalloped-edge trim?

Bridal Beauty- Getting Your Blusher Right


For your big day a nice natural blush effect is best, you do not need to apply a great deal more than you would normally feel comfortable wearing as at the end of the day you are creating a natural day make-up. Using a light highlighter along with your blusher just above the cheekbone, working towards the brow bone will give a nice subtle glow & will add more definition to your cheek bones. Cream blushers give a nice natural effect & can create a barely there make-up look but still give you a 'flush' of colour on your cheeks. If you decide to opt for this wear a primer underneath & apply to an un-powdered finish then lightly powder afterwards to set, this will make the blusher last longer. If opting for a powder use a large brush & sweepgently across the cheek. For a youthful & natural look, apply blusher to the apples of the cheeks, these are the fleshy part of your cheeks when you smile. Remember that you only need to take the colour up slightly in order to see it in the photos, the flash of the camera can strip some of the colour away, but if you opt for a high quality blusher such as Mac then the pigments will still show through & give you a nice finish for the photos.

I have a feeling that Wednesdays are going to turn into "Ballet Wednesday" around here, as I keep coming across beautiful ballet editorials lately, making me look even more forward to my class each week!

The other day I came across these lovely photos by Shini of Park & Cube, where she had the chance to see a special screening of Black Swan with a ballet class, MAC makeover, and BLOCH dance kit... talk about jealous! Be sure to pop by her blog, as there's plenty more great photos to see. What a wonderful outing!

*I recently bought the Black Swan poster that's last in the lineup of the four above (cream background), can't wait for it to arrive in the mail! The graphics for all four teaser posters were done by LaBoca studio.
