Friday is finally here, which means Mr. AiF and I are off to a weekend in the mountains... A snowy, Christmas-themed getaway courtesy of the Edmonton Journal that encourages gorging on decadent foods and festive fun including — but not limited to — holiday crafts... Needless to say, we're pretty pumped. And if I don't succumb to a flock of feisty geese or an aggressive mink while I'm up there (hey, it happens),  I'll see you guys back here on Monday.

Happy weekending! xx

{Style} Sea of ShoeMint

The minute I saw the Sea of Shoes x ShoeMint collaboration, I knew I had to make them mine. Like, if there were a "yoink" button on my screen (future e-commerce peeps of the world take note), that's what I would have pressed. Since arriving in the mail on Monday, I've paraded around the house in them exactly 800 times (give or take) and dreamed up a lifetime of outfits to accompany them... I'm not obsessed or anything.

Happy Thursday! xx

{Style} Weekend Wear...

Weekends are for kicking back, enjoying time with friends and treating yo-self to some serious carbs and caffeine (just me?), so when it comes to dressing the part, there's nothing I love more than my trusty slouchy-shirt-n-jeans combo. It's put together juuuuuust enough as to look presentable — especially with the help of a statement necklace — yet comfortable enough to lounge in all weekend long. In fact, as soon as I get home tonight I'm going to pull a Mr. Rogers and change into my "indoor" clothes... Only minus the thousands of children watching.

So tell me: What's YOUR weekend uniform? Happy Friday, friends! xx

Well here's a sight you probably never expected to see around these parts — faux leather sweat pants. In my defense, I was overcome by the sheer novelty (at least for me) and awesomeness that is these pants while hunting for holiday wear yesterday (but that's a story for another day). I sheepishly tried them on — half in disbelief over my selection, half in shame of my new-found admiration for shiny sweats — and scurried over to the checkout counter before I could change my mind. And you know what? Turns out I'm kind of in love with these ridiculous pants after all... Sorry, not sorry.

Happy Monday, friends! xx

Another weekend bites the dust, but not before a little rehashing of recent events. Mine consisted of chores, fun with family, carbs (obviously), and some minor party hopping... But enough about me (honestly, how rude), how about you?? Fill me in, friendlies! xx

{Style} Pop of Plaid...

Plaid, suede and tortoise details aside, I'm totally ready for fall and it has everything to do with the fact that I've already had my first Pumpkin Spice Latte of the season... My boss nearly tackled me when I offered her one yesterday (I guess somebody's a little puritanical when it comes to seasonal goods), but workplace outbursts aside (I kid, I kid), it was sooooo worth it... PSL's for the win!

So tell me friends: What's YOUR favourite harbinger of fall? (brownie points for anyone who says PSL!) xx

{Style} Taking Celfies...

 
As a self-proclaimed Instagram addict (and Celine admirer, of course), I feel like this shirt was pretty much made for me... In fact, short of a "I live off sugar" or "Pass the remote" type message, I don't think there could be a more fitting shirt for me... That Jules really cuts to the core of me (kind of like this). xx
