I'm not a big fan of summer. Ok, there, I said it, so sue me. I just don't like being all sweaty and hot and stuff. However, I just checked out this viddy for Montreal designer Eve Gravel's Spring/Summer 2013 collection and I cannot wait for winter to be done with. Usually the layering of the fall season has me swooning, but I am all over the textures and the colours of Eve's upcoming release. If this is any indication of what we'll be seeing next year, then I can hardly wait!

Living Pretty

I have to say, this is one of the best, easiest and prettiest decor projects I have seen in awhile. Vintage tea trays used as message boards is only one of many amazing finds on the design blog, Poppytalk. I would also highly recommend stopping by their home base, Poppytalk Handmade, an online curated market for arts and crafts. I am especially partial to these fun pillows by Evie Kemp.

Fall into Chevron

Thanksgiving is upon us fellow Canadians. If you are looking for a cute, but not corny (pun intended) project to tastefully bring you into the autumn season, look no further. Melaine Thompson at My Sweet Savannah shows us how to do an affordable and pretty fall chevron pumpkin. Let me know how yours turns out!

Paul & Joe Full Coverage Lipstick in Rouge

It took me a long time to write this post. Every time I tried to put fingers to keys, I ended up sounding like a complete moron. Maybe it's because I am so in love with and have a long, personal relationship with this brand that it makes it almost impossible to do it justice. You see, Paul & Joe has come in and out of my life at some pretty key moments and this red lipstick is currently helping me through a big transition. It may seem silly to attribute a beauty product to helping you through something, but if that's what it does, why fight it? Paul & Joe will make you feel like a 30s ingenue. It will inspire you with it's luxe, feminine packaging. And it will comfort you like a warm cup of tea. But all you really need to know, is that Paul & Joe is a pretty thing indeed.

Lindsi of people webs has great style and a great little shop that I fully intend on setting aside some of my next pay cheque for. Her outfits are super sweet and tend to involve some form of polka dots. I really don't think I need to remind you of Pretty Thing's obsession with polka dots. These outfits have me pining for summer again already. I guess I'll just have to cheer myself up with the perfect fall/winter accessory - a crochet bow headband in pumpkin from Lindsi's Etsy shop. Yes, that'll do it.
