I’ve been eyeing a certain bed at Crate and Barrel for three years now. It’s a steep price, but I just know that I’d use it forever. The Colette bed is wonderfully plush and feminine. I’m crossing my fingers that I’ll be able to fit it up my very narrow staircase into my loftesque bedroom. [...]

Oh Joy posted on Tim Walker today and I nearly fell off my seat. I would like to live in the mind of Tim Walker for just one day. Every photograph he takes is so wrapped up in whimsy! I got so excited about his work that I rushed to amazon to see if he’d [...]

I never thought I’d be under my parents roof again after seven years being on my own in Kingston, Vancouver and Toronto. But I’ve been living with my parents for the last year and a half. It’s really been sweet of them to let me stay so long.
