Tea at the Castle

Joe Fresh cashmere cardi, Club Monaco tee, Chanel pearl necklace

Just a quick post with a few photos from my weekend at high tea with the girls. Fairmont Hotel Vancouver is the perfect place for afternoon tea. We indulged in petit sandwiches, pastries, and freshly baked scones with Devonshire cream. It's becoming my favorite place to spend Sunday afternoons and we intend to make high tea a monthly thing. In other news, I'm off to Hong Kong and Bali this weekend! Hustle and bustle of city life followed by beach and paradise is my kind of vacation. Of course, I'll be blogging on the go ;) Please send any restaurant and shopping recommendations my way!

New year, New look

Alice & Olivia skirt, Zara jacket, Club Monaco top, Chanel 2.55 HRH Collection necklace

Ringing in the new year with a look I love the most - prim, proper, and playful.
I'm convinced Alice & Olivia is out to take over my closet. Season after season, I seem to want everything. Stacey's designs are youthful yet sophisticated and each piece is set to make a statement. I fell for this high waisted skirt from the Fall 2010 collection as soon as it hit stores. Perfect pleats with shimmery polka dot print make this skirt simply stunning. Blair Waldorf may have worn it with a Marc by Marc Jacobs top on the set of Gossip Girl, but I paired it with my beloved vintage Chanel (I wish!) Zara tweed jacket.  Both give off subtle shimmer -- I think these two were made for each other!

My new year's resolutions are usually a long running list.  In short, I'm determined to do more & see more.  It's the year to turn ideas into real business ventures, travel to places I've never been, and spend more time with those I love.  Here's to a fantastic start to 2011! Let's make this the best year yet.
