Baby It's Cold Outside!

Toronto is a beautiful city to live in - except that our winters are bitter cold! I will say, I do love waking up to the first snowfall and seeing the world outside my window blanketed in sheets of prestine white. Everything seems so quiet and serene... then it sinks in that it's well below freezing outside and the minute I walk out my door I am going to wish I was back in bed. Since hibernating for 4 months isn't all that practical, preparing yourself with quality winter essentials is crucial to making it through a Canadian winter. Here are some of the pieces making it onto my winter survival list this season.

1. Ugg Adirondack Boots - $250.00

2. Love Quotes Scarf in Peace - $85.00

3. Leather and Fur Avaitor Hat - $54.95

4. Parajumper W-Long Bear Parka - $803.00

5. Burberry Leather Studded Gloves - $275.00

6. Ray Ban Outdoorsmen Aviators - $139.00

Everyone Keep Calm

Unless you've been living under a rock - you have seen the Keep Calm and Carry On poster some where at some time. It's been on my wish list for a long time. You would think that since I could buy one on Etsy for $20 - I would have grabbed one by now. Problem is, I can't decide what colour I want it in! My first choice was originally canary yellow. Now I'm leaning towards a more neutral colour and hanging it in an ornate frame for some drama. I love seeing what other people are doing with theirs. What colour would you get?

In The Loop

Some very sweet friends just gave us these fantastic candle sticks as a house warming gift. The Loop candelabra is inspired by the Fibonacci curve that is seen throughout nature and looks correct and balanced to the human eye. I just think they look beautiful. I would love to pick up a few more sets to twist together like the ones in these images.
