Working it in the Snow & Cold!

I love hiking...so even though the city I live in is like a deep freeze for way too many months of the year, I still venture out to my favorite hiking spot by the river just down the street from where I live.  Definitely need to dress for the trudging through the snow and it can be slippery, but I gotta say it is a beautiful sight albeit cold and snowy!!  I do this hike all year round and most times I drag my wee boy along too!  Hey if mom can do it - so can he! lol

What a gorgeous day this was...yet so cold! burrr.  Pretty though, don't you agree?  Kinda makes you want to get out there and work it!  Go ahead I double dare you.  Just Do It!!!

When Your Strange...

While I was wandering in Paris, I really enjoyed the architecture of the city's "really" old buildings.  It's so amazing the detail they took - so intricate.  Noticed some really odd looking critters ...

You just wonder what were they thinking about :)  Ahhh but it does make for an interesting convo! And then there's something pretty thrown in....

I do love the city of Paris!

Paris Ooh La La!

I was very lucky in that I got to go to one of my favorites cities this month - PARIS!  What an amazing city - just love the architecture.  The vibe was amazing and the weather was spectacular!  I am in love with doors and Paris is definitely not short of some super fabo old big doors!

A door can open your world.  I know these doors have opened mine!  Paris was full of life and excitement during my trip.  I went with gal pal and we had loads of fun, laughed hard and had a fabo adventure!  Naturally Champers was involved :) Oh la la...

I always said I wanted to go to the top of the Eiffel Tower...hold on tight!

I took this photo of the Eiffel Tower as I whizzed by on the train.  It was cloudy that morning but actually turned out to be a warm day. 

Oh my ...gusts of wind up my skirt! Doing the Marilyn Munroe strutt down Rue du Rivoli on the way to the Louvre.

Ahhhhh....za Louvre!  Iz shall sit here and soak up the last bit of sun for za day.  But alas, Champers is calling my name....away I go to za parc for za happy hour!! oh la la

And yes, there was shopping done!  Oh was there shopping!  Ladies, you get a deal on designer shopping.  Save save save...better than here!  This was a good day :)  And yes, once again I did hit the Paris Outlets but unfortunately nothing spoke to me :(  Louis Vuitton and Doir were making a such noise, I had to go to them!!  Well...someone had to!!

Okay...one last sip of za Champers...ahhhhhhhhhhhhh voila!  Au revoir mon amies!! Stay posted for more updates on Paris, old building designs and of course, shopping!!

Crowns

As everyone who knows me, they also know that I am Crown crazed!  I just wanted to share a few crowns I have in my home.  I have always loved crowns and it's never been that I have wanted to be a princess....even though am lol!

I have many more all different sizes and colors.  They make lovely home decor pieces.  I even found a vintage set of earrings on my last trip to San Francisco that are so stunning I had to purchase them!

 Ooh la la

What a find!

Crocodile Snap Snap!

I mentioned to you all that I love the croc bag.  I thought I would share with you my most excellent find.  I got this awesome brown crocodile Kelly bag for a steal!  It looks like new - it's vintage but it was probably never used - go figure.  I didn't like the strap so I changed it up to a Bamboo strap.  And Va-Va-Va-Boom!  Can you say Smok'n!  Oh ya....too sexy - STOP!!

Looks like a Gucci Bag!  Or a Vintage Hermes!

So lalalaladies...I have the black croc bag still for sale....you can leave it with a chain strap or bump it up a notch and do a bamboo strap.  Oooh la la.  Let your fingers do the shopping and email me.  Don't wait too long...here's a peak of it again just to refresh that memory without searching my past posts.

A must have for this summer!!

Did someone say Fresh?

I love a bargain.  I'm sure everyone in the world loves a bargain.  But I also have to have that just so look too.  I love Joe Fresh for that!  Joe Mimran really seriously does a fantastic job for the price! I got a really cute outfit for $35! Yes you heard me right :)  I can wear this outfit all year around, with flips, with boots, with wedges - anything goes with this super cute super comfortable outfit.  You can't go wrong with the Joe Fresh price point and yet look so dang cute!  I bought a few other cute items for the summer too such as a little tennis squort....catch me if you can! lol
