Like Blue Blazes

If you can't beat them, join them...right? Instead of fighting the January blues I have been embracing them. It's been a while since I wore this fuzzy blue coat and I love how fresh I felt pairing it with all blue-- crisp blue jeans, a chambray top, and my classic mint bag. This may not come as a surprise, but the coat is super cozy, and just perfect to fight this January chill. This was so necessary this past Sunday since I spent it running around finishing errands for my upcoming trip. By the way, I'm headed to Mexico tomorrow with my best friend! Woohoo!  I am beyond excited for a girl's trip!  Can you tell? It is way, way overdo. Be sure to follow along on all our shenanigans (@gabpacifico), and sorry in advance snap chat friends!

La Dolce Vita- Italy Vlog

You may remember a while ago, B and I took a trip to Europe (I'll link some past posts below). Since the travel bug has hit me hard this January I've been going through old pictures over and over again. We often look through the pictures of this trip, smiling and reminiscing, but I totally forgot about all the video footage I took while on this trip! I recently re-discovered it and created my first Vlog about our time in Italy. We flew from Nice to Naples, based ourselves in Positano and toured the Amalfi Coast. We then island hopped to Capri to soak up the sun for a few nights before heading northbound to Florence and Rome. The food, the people, the sites…I remember it like it was yesterday! We ate pizza and drank wine till we burst, scootered around like Romans, and set sail on our own adventures.

Here is my first attempt at video making! I'd love to hear your thoughts. I have so much more footage from Barcelona, and France; let me know if you want to see more!

Winter Red-y

A trip to Niagara way is never complete without a stop in Burlington, Ontario. Although it was too cold to stroll the waterfront the cold did not stop me from hitting up two of my favourite Burlington shops: Kelly's Bake Shoppe, and Centro Garden. When we left the city, the sun was shinning and the temperature was above freezing, hence my decision to pull out this trench one more time. Thank goodness for layering and turtlenecks, because once we made our way past Oakville the clouds rolled in and the temps dropped. This combination of warm gloves, a cashmere scarf and a knit turtleneck was my saving grace. That, and Kelly's mile high brownie. 

I'm so happy it's Friday again! Do you have any weekend plans? Try incorporating a pop of colour into your outfit and feel your mood automatically lift!
