weekend sparkles

April 27, 2012

weekend

i came across this gorgeous photo and it summed up my feelings… hurry up summer so i can eat delicious, fresh berries! we booked a little summer getaway for august long weekend and i am so excited for it. i firmly believe you always need to have something to look forward to – preferably a trip! this weekend i’m trying desperately to get a start at finishing my office; shelves and art have yet to go up. have a fantastic weekend… let’s wait for summer together!

gold friendship earrings – i love this idea!

speaking of gold – this tutorial for gold edged frames is brilliant. wonder if you could just tape off the corners and paint directly onto the frame?

what models wear off the runway

victoria beckham’s designer range rover is ready for purchase… what do you think of it?

monday sparkles

this weekend was super low-key and relaxing by choice. i got all of my errands out of the way on friday so we could sleep at least one weekend morning. it felt almost sinful! saturday afternoon we went searching for a headboard and came up empty handed. if you have any tips, feel free to share?

by the way: this whole week is all about makeup on the blog! a tutorial, a new collection from bobbi brown and a review on a new nars product.

a mid-afternoon nail painting break (‘teddygirl’ by butter and gold bowl from the cross design) // early saturday spring walk to enjoy the cherry blossoms // sporting some new toms from jennyfleur loves // setting up for a new blush tutorial when i’ll be posting this week // ava loves to relax on weekend mornings as well // the most amazing braised beef from raincity grill – if you’re in vancouver – you MUST treat yourself
