I have not been able to get motivated to take new style
shots, as it’s been unbearably cold, and it has been weeks. I still have a couple styles that were taken
earlier, so the next task is not getting distracted, which might be difficult
since we have friends in town.
On the other hand, it’s been rather nice to finish up other blog
related things, as well as get back to sewing, drawing, and doing some fabric
shopping. I also got a new personal laptop and I am just getting to setting up … everything! I am sure you can understand, both the excitement and impatience of
wanting everything to upload fast or magically function seamlessly in a glance.
Below are some January favourites from my photo
diaries, including a style preview of what’s coming up, post-weekend snapshots, brunch memories, and other random captures that were taken.
Above: Style preview, open faced kale, walnut, and pesto and herb salad on fresh oat bread, New globe mini-notecards on my creative desk space, Inside style shot of my sandals, Brunch tablescape memories in black and white, Earl Grey teatime, Beauty obsessions with Shiseido facial cotton, and Mario Badescu products, An evening sky, Notecard details, Fabric gifts from coffee friends, Morning foodie starters plated, Art purchases, Reading style with Valentino frames, and More bag and art details.
We indulged in home baked almond croissants over the weekend. I used the gunny sack bag that I was given from a friend to add to our table decor, which will also be cut soon for a burlap project that I have in mind.
Current Tunes: The
Softer Side
Music is always playing in my home, offices, on the plane, and everything in-between. Sometimes it’s a
lyric that grabs you, sometimes it’s the tone of a ballad, or a band that does
more than catch your ear. Here are four tracks that we’ve been listening to
recently: “Brother” by Mighty Oaks, James Bay’s, “Let Go,” “MiddleGround” by Mark Wilkinson, and Labrinth’s,
“Jealous.”
Don’t forget, there’s still time to enter the Jord gift
voucher Eco-giveaway!

Inside can be just as cool to post about! Those pastries look delicious!

lovely pics…and music is always playing in my house as well.
I fully get you; life slows down in winter and one doesn't want to face the cold! Waiting for spring…

I know what you mean about the cold! I've taken a few outfit pics for the blog and I've worn hats in every single one because it's the best way for my hair to stay in place AND it's just so cold. The new laptop sounds exciting. I loved it when I finally upgraded mine a few years ago!

I remember seeing your pretty tea cup with the Earl Grey tea on Instagram. Those home made almond croissants look so appetising. In fact, you've inspired me to make a French breakfast this weekend. A change from my toast and cereal!

Hi Madison! Haha I can totally relate. It's almost too cold to take outfit pics. We didn't take any as well. I looking forward to see yours. The shoes are super cute and I bet the rest looks amazing as well. Home baked almod croissants sounds heavenly. Gosh I miss gluten haha. Es schneit jeden Tag, aber der Schnee bleibt zum Glück nicht liegen. Sommer ich kann es kaum erwarten. Wünsch dir eine gute Nacht. Hier ist jetzt Mitternacht 😀

Yay for a new laptop! That salad on bread looks really tasty and your Valentino frames are so chic!
Nice music and I believe Instagram is a life saver to share those little details!
Ah – what a cool insta update, love the cat eye glasses 🙂

Those are great photos. Cold weather definitely makes it hard to get motivated for photos. My mouth is watering at that Kale and those yummy pastries.

The excitement when you get something new is always awesome. Lovely photos! The weather is freezing here too, so I understand that you're not motivated. Hope it gets better soon. 🙂
Much love, sister….xoxo
