We were recently invited to do a collab with TOBI, which is a good time since their Party Dress selections are pretty friggan’ fabulous! Pages and pages of lace & sequins & CRUSHED VELVET YES PLEASE. We chose pieces we could also wear months from now when there’s no snow on the ground, haha. Note: If you live anywhere where Winter is a below freezing thing … Continue reading TOBI Love
It’s Confession Time! I can’t stand going for walks. And when I say “going for walks”, I mean for leisure. A walk “just for the sake of it”. Jess, however, enjoys walking very much. She can even tolerate the treadmill. I just shuddered at the mere thought of getting on the treadmill. The only time I enjoy going for a walk is when there’s a … Continue reading A Lighthouse “Picnic”
If you’re a fashion-loving Newfoundlander & Labradorian, then you’re no doubt already familiar with (slash fangirling/fanboying over) Megan Warren and her blog/Insta Don’t Forget to Sparkle. We LOOOOVE Megan and her knack for combining classic pieces with feminine touches to look 100% on-trend, classy, and modern. She launched Ethereal Boutique online a few months ago, and we’re already in love with that, too. We recently collaborated for … Continue reading Ethereal Boutique + New York City
This will be a quick little post from us today. We’re busy preparing ourselves to make 800 cupcakes tomorrow. (Does that even make sense? haha. Basically, we’re trying to get everything else done today so we can be cupcake-machines tomorrow.) Jess channeled her inner Effie Trinket in a big, blue way. This is one of the coolest dresses we’ve ever found at a Value Village. … Continue reading Thrifted Thursdays: 05.11.17
Nothing like a weekly blog post to make us realize just how quickly weeks are going by, haha. We did something crazy this week and took outfit photos outside Port de Grave! We headed to nearby Brigus. If you’ve never been, the town’s basically a postcard. For real. It definitely deserves its own blog post. It’s on our list, folks. Jess picked up this adorable … Continue reading Thrifted Thursdays: 05.04.17
Not sure how it goes for the rest of the world, but we get a nice day around here and basically think it’s Summer. Until the following day, that is, when it drops back down to freezing. One nice day’s good enough for us to bare our legs and pack up the puffy winter jackets, haha. All very premature on our part. Breaking news: Jess … Continue reading Thrifted Thursdays: 04.13.17
The amount of time we’ve spent staring out the window in the past few days is a little ridiculous, haha. We admit it–we’re completely mesmerized by the Bay packed full of ice. It showed up in a steady stream over the weekend, like a parade in which only ice floats participated. (There were probably a few seals and birds, too). Yesterday morning, the Bay was … Continue reading The Ice is in.
We spent much of Tuesday afternoon browsing the thrift shops in St. John’s. We’re typically rushed on Tuesdays, since we’re often going here and there picking up trunk-loads of butter, flour, and icing sugar. We had some extra time this week, so we spent it browsing the secondhand racks literally hanger by hanger. What usually happens is whoever’s wearing the least complicated outfit is on … Continue reading Thrifted Thursdays: 01.20.17
When you live in this province, the ultimate Winter plans are typically made on the west coast, right? So, we planned a trip to the west coast. When trying to find accommodations, however, we discovered our little road trip was scheduled during the exact same time as the National Special Olympics, and everything was booked solid in Deer Lake and Corner Brook. Super bad timing … Continue reading Curing the Winter Blues
We wanted to title this post “Putting Newfoundland Berries on Yer Face Feels Amazing”, but we didn’t want to give the wrong impression. Natural beauty products are brilliant anyways-but when they’re made locally from local ingredients?! YES, PLEASE. Needless to say, we were pumped to try products from NL’s own Indigena Skincare. A quick browse through the brand’s online site reveals lots of good stuff: … Continue reading Local Love for Indigena Skincare
