Ruby Tuesday


This Ruby Tuesday is a double whammy. Red Brick not only has a ruby namesake, but they also sell some pretty neat ruby related objects like the above wasp scarf. Red Brick is definitely the place to go for some light fall neck wear. And if you prefer something a little on the silky side, might I suggest this fab little retro inspired swimming scarf.

Sunday Best



Club Monaco's October lookbook totally has the 'wish I was there' sentiment down. Autumn hangouts on a dock at the lake are the best. And although I am heading up north to a cottage in a few weeks, I doubt I will be looking as spectacular as this girl does. The details are just perfect, from the simple paneling on a coat down to the cutest floral stockings peeking through. Club Monaco now has online shopping, so it's hard to stay away. I'd kill for this silk shirt featuring a just-right leather patch pocket.

Living Pretty

Scissor String and Spool Set

Box on Casters/Pastel
New Zealand company Father Rabbit subscribes to the philosophy that things should be done right or not done at all. I for one, wholeheartedly agree. Taking the mundane out of everyday tasks and appreciating the simplicity in them is something I try to aspire to and Father Rabbit will certainly help with that task. Every item in the general store is simply designed, functional, utilitarian, and inspired. The blog is also something to be admired over and over. If I could live anywhere right now, it would be with Father Rabbit.

Circus Freak

Away with the Circus  limited edition giclee print

While browsing art over at Signed & Numbered, I discovered illustrator Genna Campton and her series Away with the Circus. The limited edition collection is a collage based concept that is so pretty it hurts a little. It takes me back to the innocence of being a child and the strange wonder that awaited every turn...kind of like the circus.

Ruby Tuesday


The weather is getting chillier, which means dressing in snuggly sweaters and cuddling up with a nice warm blanket. Blankets are also another way to add colour and pattern to the home as we go into hibernation mode for the winter. Maybe it's just me, but during the colder months I like to stay inside, preferably lounging on the couch and definitely cocooned in one of my favourite throws. Gypsa makes it easy to keep toasty with these beautiful handmade and antique quilts. At the moment I can't get enough of this red, pink and mustard colour theme.
