Brace Yourself..

I'm having some serious bracelet cravings this month. I would like to purchase all of these and stack them.
Colorful Cranium Wrap bracelet (love the pink.) $20 from Bauble Bar

Helloberry Lattice Double Wrap Bracelet (the gold one would go perfect with everything.) $19 Helloberry on Etsy. 

Shourouk is a French jewelry line I recently discovered. It's all really colorful and sparkly, just the way I like it! This bracelet is my favorite, the Baraka Rococo Emerald, 200 Euros on Shourouk.com

Obviously this one is my favorite. It's timeless and it's Tiffany. Enough said. Elsa Peretti Diamonds by the Yard Bracelet in 18k Rose Gold, $915 at Tiffany&Co.

Quick Trip to Vancouver, B.C.

Recently I visited Vancouver, B.C. for the first time. It was nice to take a quick little trip out the country and it was our dog's first international expedition! The city was very pet friendly, which I love.
I wish I could have done more and seen more....but here are a few highlights!


Earl is a little nervous to go through customs...
We stayed at L'Hermitage and I cannot say enough good things about this hotel. They were so friendly and it was beautiful. This was our room, it included a nice little balcony and a cozy fireplace.
The view wasn't great, but I loved the little patio.
Our room was set up just for Earl! He had a goody bag full of treats waiting for him, plus these cute dog dishes, and a comfy bed.
The Vancouver Art Gallery. Those lions are very impressive.
Earl checking out the fountain outside the Vancouver Art Gallery. He was hoping to catch some ducks.
We had an amazing dinner at The Cactus Club Cafe and this blackberry, lemon, spearmint, and vodka drink was delicious! It's called the Cohlba.
The Candy Aisle right by our hotel had a Slushie machine inside!
After-dinner drinks at The Top of Vancouver restaurant
The next morning we went to Granville Island which is a huge market on the water. There was so much food to look at. I was in heaven.
Delicious wraps. I had the salmon/puff pastry one. Incredible.
As you can see, I'm a bit of a candy connoisseur so I was very excited to take a bag of these Sour Big Foot home.
