Move over, Cupcakes!

First off, I need to say "Sorry, blog, for abandoning you for twenty-two days. Summer Holidays and the beautiful weather have consumed me. I do hope you will forgive me."

Now I will write about what I was going to write about in the first place. Macaroons. I am sad to say that I have never tasted one, or even seen one, for that matter. Well, not in real life. Just in your fabulous photos. You know, the ones like these...

Laduree macaroon list
Okay, so this is just Macaroon flavors by Laduree. But, isn't it adorable?

Off to go make some macaroons. Wish me luck!

Hannah Menzies

I've been in love with Hanna Menzie's graduate collection ever since I first saw it on Style Bubble, and I'm not really sure why I've never blogged about it until now. To me, it's probably the best graduate collection on the face of the Earth. There's just something about it that makes you want to stare at the pictures and just wear it all. And yes, even the skates.

Happy Canada Day!

Happy Canada Day! This evening, I went to the lake with my sister to watch fireworks, hang out, and listen to unknown bands. Everyone in this town comes to the lake for Canada Day every year, and it's always a blast.

Fireworks -- made by just swiveling the camera around. I get some pretty weird looks when I'm spazzing around the camera, while taking a picture.

Glastonbury Street Style 2010

After seeing these photos, I've decided that I would be fine going to Glastonbury even if it was just to go people-watching. But if one day, I actually could make it to Glastonbury, I would love to see Vampire Weekend, Marina & The Diamonds, Jack Johnson, Kate Nash, and Broken Bells. Who would you see?

A Mish-Mash of Wonderful

I've been collecting so many images that I like, or images that just make me smile or go "Ooooh" or "Ahhh". You know what I mean, right? Anyways, here are some of my favorite images I've collected over the past week.

Osborn Shoes


Hey, everyone. I was reading the latest issue of Nylon a couple of days ago, when I came across these shoes. They're called Osborn Shoes and anybody who needs a little bit of craziness in their wardrobe will love these. Aren't they amazing?


via osborndesign.com:

Osborn owns its own production workshop located in Guatemala. We currently have 25 artisans and 4 administrators employed full time. We work personally with our production team to ensure high quality handcrafted shoes - entirely fair trade with locally sourced materials.


All the materials for each shoe are individually hand-cut and each shoe is assembled by hand.


Each and every Osborn Shoe represents not only a fashionable statement, but also a step in the right direction in respects to world employment and sourcing standards - we believe it is evermore important to know where your valuables come from.
