top5.

Getting back into the swing of things...it's time for Top 5 post.

There's no shortage of fun things happening at this time of the year (amist the busy schedules we all have) but these are a few things that caught my eye or have been on my mind lately. 

Vogue's Shoot. 
One of the most beautiful and raw editorials I've seen in awhile. 

How To Be Parisian. 
My next read AND the best Instagram account I've followed in a while. 

Tove Lo. 
Can't stop listening to Tove Lo. My favourite track of the moment, "Talking Body".

Flash Tattoos. 
Temporary tattoos for grown-ups. I can't resist covering my arms and pretending I have a sleeve of tattoos. That's what they're for...right? 

ORU Vancouver. 
I stumbled into ORU by accident with a friend a couple months ago, and it's become one of my go-to cocktail bars. Josh makes a mean pumpkin spice sour and will customize cocktails based on your taste palate. Go, I tell you.

top5.

Yikes it got cold outside quickly! That's one thing I'm not sure I'll ever get used to - the change of the seasons is so quick across Canada.

Alas, winter is slowly coming upon us, and that means a good reason to dress up, dance around and celebrate the season.

Hey, if it's going to be cold, we gotta warm up somehow right?

Here is November's Top 5. 

A birthday. 

First off, the most glamour woman I know (and one of the people I strive to be) has a birthday today! Wishing all the best to my beautiful mother - wish I could be there to celebate with you. 


Crystal pins/brooches. 

As of late, I'm loving incorporating something sparkly into my daily outfits. I think it helps ward off the winter blues. The easiest way is to pin something glittery on, and voila! Instant glamour. 


Calendar.  

With everything going digital, a few have asked me "why bother with a calendar?" As a visual learner (and person for that matter) I like being able to count down the days to trips, events, holidays et cetera. Reminds me a bit of being a kid again. I love this one from Luvocracy of the world's famous cities illustrated. 


Movie posters. 

Forget the posters that used to be on your dorm room walls. When framed and mounted a vintage movie posted can be incredibly chic. I'm on the hunt for a Casablanca poster. 


A daily affirmation. 

Jessica has got it right.
