Just Because...

Tonite a childhood dream will come true, I will be seeing THE BOSS in concert!!!  When I was in middle school I used to play the below cassette while dancing and belting out Mr. Springsteen.  I am amazed I didn't grown up with a complex since I sang "BORN IN THE USA" like I actually was.

I will be heading to the Rogers Centre (Skydome) where I saw my first concert, Ricky Martin, many moons ago.  I cannot wait to knock this 'legend' off my concert bucket list.  I have managed to see Prince, Elton John, Billy Joel, Rolling Stone, off that list however the list still includes Cher, U2 and a handful more.

So tonite I live out a childhood dream and only wish I could be as lucky as Courtney Cox was and get pulled up on stage!

Ahhhh, little girl dreams do come true!

 Afternoon Anthropologie Style... 

My perfect Saturday would be waking up, a French pressed coffee, a newspaper, blog-roll (of course) and then a trip to the market, a bakery and a cheese shop.  All while placing these items into the basket in the front of my retro inspired bicycle.  My iPod would be playing Florence and the Machine and Adele on loop as I whiz thru the downtown streets.  Now of course this fantasy takes place in Paris, I had someone do my hair and makeup, and oh yes, the weather is warm with a chilly breeze.  And later this afternoon I would meet friends in a café, eat macaroons and debate light fare topics; ah, the dream continues, lol.  Now this is the outfit I would wear on this perfect Saturday morning.  All the clothes are from {Anthropologie} a store that fills me with wonder and amazement at their clothes and home products ALWAYS.  Hope that this coming season I can find pieces like these to add to my closet, so that a little bit of my dreamy Saturday will come true!

This coming weekend is a busy one for me!  Tonite I am sending a friend off who is heading to NZ for a month, so martinis are in order!  Tomorrow I am doing a winery tour in Niagara on the Lake for another friend’s birthday.  And then on Sunday, back to Niagara, to do a 5km CHOCOLATE race, yes you heard me CHOCOLATE!  So a busy weekend I will have, pictures to come on Monday.  Hope you all enjoy your weekend too!

Inspiration ...

{Anthropologie} is a website filled of clothes and housing ideas that I try constantly to draw ideas and inspiration from; even with not owning a piece of their product, sadly.  They recently launched new bedding collections, laelia, pavo, nimbus, and albertine.  All outfits are gorgeous, ethereal, colourful, stylish and relaxing all at the same time.  The way they staged the ads is awesome, and makes me want replica rooms ASAP.

My favorite was the PAVO.

 

This room has old and new world charm.  Has a city yet country feel.  I want to curl up in the bed and read a great book at night, I want to spend Sunday mornings with VOGUE and Stella and wake up slowly.

I will stare at this picture and just think of all the great things to come in life; This room makes me DREAM.
