a peter pan inspired outfit and organ donation

Outfit Details:
Hat: Aldo
Vest: Vintage
Shirt: Banana Republic
Sweater: Thrifted
Pants: American Apparel

I love this outfit. My hair is finally long enough to sport hats. This is such a great little floppy hat. My closet definitely needs more hats in it I think. This outfit reminds me of a Peter Pan take minus the wool socks? Hey it's chilly here today! The tight green pants, with the feather hat. Inspiration for the day is Peter Pan. A vintage vest with any outfit always looks awesome.

How are your friday's shaping up to be? Tonight we are playing in a bowling tournament with some friends and this afternoon is flxyoga (yoga with resistance bands hanging from the roof). It's quite awesome and SUCH a good work out. 

April is Organ Donation Awareness month and May is Cystic Fibrosis month. In honour of these two VERY important issues I'm donating 10% of my online sales from my shop CLICK HERE to The Lady Team's Great strides walk at the zoo to raise money for Cystic Fibrosis. 

I was born with Cystic Fibrosis and 2 and half years ago underwent a double lung transplant that saved my life. It's been a long road of recovery but it's been beautiful and breath taking! I've loved every minute of the last 2 and a half years and can't wait for the next adventures (did someone say San Francisco?)!  Please talk to your family about your wishes on Organ Donation and save someone's life when you're gone. I owe everything to the person that decided to be an organ donor and I am forever grateful for the generosity of a complete stranger.

Fashion Show 2011

Did you miss the memo? I did...It's July 11th ALREADY!

I am sitting on the screened in porch enjoying the garden and pond view, when I went to get up from the couch, I was stuck.

Leather, humidity, legs and dresses make for a great oppurtunity for legs to stick and squish and be PEEEEELED off leather couch.

That being said, I am NOT complaining. Summer is far to short, and far to gorgeous and I far way rather the heat heat heat then a sparkle of snow.

I've been spending a lot of time designing for the Fashion show on Thursday August 25th.
Whaaaat fashion show is this you may ask? Me and 13 beautiful fashionista, inspiriting women, (dubbed the Lady Team) put on. Did I mention we're all under the age of 25? Super stars. 


We raised over $30,000 for the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation last year. This is our second annual event, and if you thought last year was good. Wait until you see this year. It's going to knock your wedge sandals off...yeah I went there.
