Just wanted to say a quick hello since I wasn't able to post this week. I am a bridesmaid in my cousin's wedding this weekend so things are a little busier than normal. Hope you all enjoy a beautiful weekend! Savour the last days of summer while they're here!

Meet our guest: A Heart and Soul Story
Friday, July 19, 2013
It's Friday! I am definitely looking forward to the weekend after a week of record high temperatures, and no air conditioning! Complaints aside, I want to introduce you to the lovely Anja. She has kindly offered to share her packing list for a wedding in Helsinki, Finland - a place I would absolutely love to visit some day.

Hello, Little Red Purse Readers! My name is Anja and I am blogging over at A Heart and Soul Story. Leah has been so kind to do a little guest post on my blog while I am attending a wedding in beautiful Helsinki and I now wanted to return the favor. As Leah is in the wedding business, and with her lovely wedding from last year, she is a pro. Still, she asked me to share my packing list for my trip to the wedding in Finland.
As I am combining the wedding trip with a little vacation, I had to pack smart, which is not my favourite thing. I love all my clothes and it is hard for me to limit myself. I still tried.
My outfit had to be classy, but also comfortable as we would be moving around a lot during the day. I tried to find pieces that I could remix again during our trip. I picked a lovely mint/turquoise cocktail dress and added white, mint and silver accessories to the look.
Essentials
- 50s inspired cocktail dress with embroidery
- white bolero jacket for cold nights
- sequined heels and matching belt
- mint crystal necklace and earrings
- Essie Mint Candy Apple nail polish
- small silver bag
Extras
- ballerina flats to dance the night away
- mosquito repellent as the party will be at the harbour
- tinted balm for the seaside air
- camera to snap some pictures
- tissues for the ceremony (I am so emotional)
Scandinavian Thursday: Cottage
Thursday, July 4, 2013
One of the things I have always dreamed about when I get older and have kids and grandkids, is to have a cozy little cottage for us to escape to. I have fond memories of my family going on vacation to my grandparents cottage with my aunts, uncles, and cousins. It's a time to relax, rejuvenate, and spend time with loved ones without any distractions.
A Scandinavian cottage would be just perfect!

Bicycle fashion
Wednesday, August 18, 2010
I was reading an article in the paper recently about Bicycle Fashion. Forget the 6-speed mountain bike, pull out your mother's old school bike and take it for a ride down the city streets in your favourite dress.
It's all about looking pretty and elegant. The ever growing eco friendly craze is re-enforcing the bicycle trend as well. We are seeing some fun accessories and styles such as the head scarf (or hats for winter), backpack purses, and strappy sandals - who knew you could be so stylish riding a bike?

H&M advertisement is the epitome of great summer style for bicycle fashion. The jumpsuit & head scarf are perfect for a bike ride.
Dresses and flats are a cute way to pass by on your way to work.
Summer or Winter
The bicycle trend is creating a new trend with purses. The over-the-shoulder and backpack purses are becoming very popular to accommodate every woman.
