weekend snaps

Friday night was pretty chill. We made homemade pizza which was the BEST yet, no photos because we ate it that quickly, drank wine and I fell asleep at 10pm {lame}! The city was JAMMED with things happening! I have never been to the Royal Winter Fair, so on Saturday we decided to venture over to the exhibition grounds....and brave our farm animal allergies to take in some farming culture! We ate a lot of samples, drank a lot of wine and learned how to judge cows...educational! Saturday night we went out for a late dinner then went to see Gravity at the IMAX. If you're in the mood for a stressful nail bitter of a movie...go see Gravity! The special effects are amazing, Sandra and George are great and the movie is S.T.R.E.S.S! Sunday, was pretty relaxing the sun finally decided to make an appearance and we took Effy to a dog park and drank some delicious coffee! Then we decided to make homemade chicken tenders {baked NOT fried!} {recipe based off Rachel Ray here} and a roasted beet and goat cheese salad {recipe based from here}. It was a delicious team effort!*

after MONTHS of procrastinating I finally got my Ontario plates!!

Friday Favorites!*

FRIDAY!!!! I was unemployed for long enough that I almost forgot how great it is when Friday finally arrives! To kick off the weekend here are a few of my favorite things I found/saw/ate this week! Happy weekend!*

Black Givenchy Leather Shark Lock Wedge Boots. These are totally amazing and totally unaffordable. With a $1900 price tag I can proudly say I will never own these, but I will make it my winter mission to find a similar style! #swoon

I am so in LOVE with every single piece of art work created by artist Jen Ramos, however they are all sold out which is very upsetting.... but for now you can view the pieces {here}! This style and colouring is exactly what I've been looking for, for the past 3 years.... isn't it always the way?!

 

 



 This knockout round on the Voice this week was my favorite!

 

 

I'm STILL talking about this delicious fish waffle from the Korean market! I may need to go back this weekend and try another flavor!

 



 

 

 

This amazingly chic and feminine coat I found on Pinterest {here}. The pin says it's from Zara but I'm not able to find it on the site! If you can find it please let me know and forward me the link in the comments section I would LOVE to own this!

Happy Friday everyone!!!!  What a long week! I have a huge need for a caesar right now, but first...Friday Favorites! Tomorrow I'm heading to the mall to pick up a few cute things for spring...that are versatile enough to wear to work and outside of work..! I was browsing the Zara website today and found 5 super cute looks that I think will accomplish what I'm looking for! Hopefully they have these pieces at the Zara I shop at tomorrow!

Spring has arrived!*

Spring has arrived!* by vodka-caviar featuring flower jewelry

Spring has arrived! At least in Calgary it has! And a lot of the spring collections are out in stores...! I'm loving the colourful blazers! I wear A LOT of neutral colours so this will be an easy way for me to add a pop of colour to my other wise boring wardrobe!  I'm going to wait to see if it snows again before I go invest, but I'm so excited for spring and all the fun clothes out this season!*
