Really? Snow in April, are you kidding me? I wish it was nothing but an April fool's joke gone wrong, but alas it wasn't. The return of winter gave a blast so harsh our poor crocuses called it quits - that paired with a week of sick child folk has made for a rather gloomy start to the spring.

On the bright side, being stuck indoors with the young people has made for the perfect Easter crafting atmosphere. I hope to be back blogging more soon and post some pictures of all the messy glory.

Thank you for stopping by, and a good day to you.

Spring Fling - by bebojo on Polyvore.com

It ranks just above watching TV, but is such a fun distraction from real life. Depending on how serious you are and whether or not you are a perfectionist - you can put together a quick portrait of fashion, interior design, or 'art' that you are desiring in about 5 minutes on Polyvore.com. You need to register to set up your own account if you want to save your images.

This is what I came up with for my spring wardrobe.

Side note: I am presently transitioning from my Columbia winter boots to last year's Walmart (shame on me) sneakers - but hey a gal can dream right!

Thanks for stopping by.

Oooo La La!

When it comes to fashion - I am not very well versed, but I know what I like when I see it. After the never-ending winter we have experienced here I am yearning for colour, and John Galliano's couture collection for Christian Dior served it up exquisitely in the 2009 spring-summer collection. The fabric, construction, and utter indulgence of it all is superb.

This red piece was designed, sewn and then flipped wrong side out so that the construction and seams could be seen. It is rumoured that Galliano took inspiration from and based his designs loosely on the historic Flemish paintings. Wonderful!

Love the colours - this one is my favourite!

Thanks for stopping by.
