That's a Wrap



Something that possibly excites me more than holiday gifts is holiday wrapping. I normally try to keep things tree-friendly by covering everything in magazine pages, but Sugar Paper may have me branching out this season. The shop carries several charming reversible wrapping papers, so you'll never get bored with just one look. But don't stop there, Sugar Paper also offers some extremely handsome gift tags to finish off the look. I am particularly fond of the white foil on kraft paper.

Ruby Tuesday

There is nothing quite like a good, tailored coat. It's an investment that can make or break an entire outfit. So when I saw this tomato red stunner over at Cupcakes and Cashmere, I knew it was time to fork out some cash. You can find it here at Shopbop, along with this shorter red and white number that is, unfortunately, a little out of my price range. But a girl can dream right?

Happy 1st Anniversary to Pretty Things! I can't believe it has been a full year of sharing our favourite pretty things with you. Time really does fly when you're having fun. Speaking of fun, check out this amazing collection by Maison Scotch. Another discovery from my local boutique, Leslie's, Maison Scotch has just the right mix for work and weekend. I love the versatility of each of the pieces. There are so many crazy cute combinations. And if you're looking for a quick fix to update an outfit, try this beautiful Roman Stamp ring.

Living Pretty


Originally found over at Bored Panda, this re-purposed bathtub is a stunner and a half (get it?). We love a good DIY project, even extremely ambitious ones like this. Personally, I would throw a couple more pillows on there to make my back more comfy, but otherwise, I'd love to spend an afternoon reading in this tub.

Happy Happy Joy Joy




I just realized that I have never shared the glorious blog that is Oh Happy Day! with all of our wonderful readers. Shame on me. Oh Happy Day! is a fabulous lifestyle site with plenty of DIY projects and lots of ideas for your next event. This paper dot garland made me want to throw a birthday party stat. And call me old fashioned, but I still like to send and receive traditional invitations in the mail. Oh Happy Day! not only posts their own invitation creations, but they also curate some of the best paper mail I've seen on the interwebs. It would be a happy day for me to receive any one of them in the post.
