Navy Seal!!

Although the snow keeps falling, the sun is getting warmer and it is starting to feel like spring!!! Although it is our first winter here in St.John's, we have heard that the snow will entirely gone by March - which is only a few weeks away!!

I was so inspired by the beautiful french pouf that I posted about yesterday, that I thought I would wear my very own pouf from h&m. I think it looks lovely worn with this newly purchased shirt from Joe Fresh which was a steal of a deal at $10.00. I suggest that everybody go down to their neighborhood Joe Fresh and buy at least one shirt, as they come in a variety of colors. For only  $10.00, you can add a super versatile piece to your wardrobe - a definite must!!

Check out our little, rather big seal friend, just chillin' out on some ice in the middle of St. John's!! I think this seal is definitely a city girl!! 

Make sure to check out my give-away!! There are only a few days left to enter your name into the draw!!

Love,
Karen

Chocolate Love

Since moving to St.John's we have been hearing a lot about this cute little, European Deli/Bakery called Manna European Bakery. So today, we finally checked it out and were pleasantly surprised with a great selection of Euro-style bread!! 

Luckily for me, they also sold these delicious, love inspired Belgian chocolates. We bought them for our dessert tonight but I think they would make the perfect Valentines gift for the one you love!

XOX,

On Top Of The World

Without sounding too much like a travel advertisement, I must say that St.John's and Newfoundland in general, is one of the must see destinations in Canada. With a bit of an island vibe, the province is loaded with natural beauty and cultural charm. My favorite thing about the people is that everybody ends their sentence with dear or darling. For example, "What can I get for you dear?" or "Here you go darling"!! I mean how adorable is that?

These pictures were taken at Signal Hill, which over looks the downtown harbour area (we also live down there). It is a historical army base and was the reception point for the first transatlantic wireless signal in 1901. Although today, it seems that the hill has become a popular spot for watch the sunset. 

This 'darling' tutu ballerina skirt from Designers Remix Collection was a Christmas gift from Dominic. You may remember it from this post a few months back to which I declared my love to it. I guess this whole blog thing is a good thing because I never even asked for it for Christmas and Dominic got it for me anyways - what an amazing husband!! I don't think I could have received anything better for Christmas!!
