Confessions of a Montreal Styling Diva
So far the weather here has been gorgeous- we've had straight summer days, except for one (very welcome) day of rain. I capitalized on some down time when the pouring started and snuggled with Charlie on this incredibly comfy blanket by Nuzzieco. There's a lot to delight me about this one: sustainable, hand-knit, no animal... Continue Reading →
NOTE: I open for suggestions, guest interviews or collabs on this subject- send me an email if you're interested!

How fun that this month's Thrifty Six theme is florals! I can't think of a funner or more versatile print. It gives me so much joy and it's always the right pattern for print-mixing. I’ve named this flowery dress/ jacket, a Dracket!! Thrifted this one years ago with new tags and all- plus- it’s pure... Continue Reading →

How fabulous that Spring is finally here! I've had a fun week in DIY's and I'm ready to show you what I've done! Just let me say this: I thrifted a gorgeous chevron, crochet blanket that I just couldn't pass up...I knew I would turn it into something incredibly fun- and I did! I made... Continue Reading →
It's been such a fun-filled styling week! This time I participated in a Runway inspired challenge: #ShowUsYourSpring HOSTED BY: Sharon @trinitystylesct AND Brenda @thechiccitygirl I had a blast! I've said it before- if you're in a style rut- check out the catwalks and then spin your own style! Here's a few of my pics of... Continue Reading →
