The glitterier the better

That’s pretty much my motto in life.  I love anything sparkly.  I particularly love when you see pics of women wearing something glittery just on a regular old day, because I think it makes people happy to see that.  It shouldn’t be reserved for holidays, right?  Check out this chick… I definitely have a girl [...]

Coming soon

November 29, 2011

I couldn’t wait to post about these… even though we don’t actually have them yet.  But I’m SO excited and we should have them in within about 10 days. A few months ago, Amanda told me about a bracelet that her friend Sarrah was wearing.  Her description of it was as follows:  “it’s made of [...]

Animal Best Friends

November 25, 2011

Yeah… this is a cheap post.  But what can I tell you?  I’m THE biggest sucker for an odd-couple animal best friend story.  I invariably cry.  Much like I always laugh when a small animal attacks a human in a bad comedy.   Yes.  I’m just THAT simple.  I keep hoping that Zoe will come home from an [...]

Remember back here, when I said how much these Joe’s lavender jeans reminded me of Amanda?  Well, I stopped by the Westmount store today, and I saw my vision in action. Amanda’s sporting the Joe’s skinny jean in lavender, along with a Joe’s jean shirt (you’re welcome, Joe’s…) and some kickass cobalt blue Isabel Marant [...]

Let it snow, let it… Oh for the love of…

You know, as soon as I woke up and looked outside, I knew that I was going to write this post.  I also knew that 1 out of every 10 FB status posts on my newsfeed would be the exact same thing.  “Snow!”  followed by the personal expression that best describes how that particular person [...]

I was driving back to the city around 6pm last night.  It was already so dark out (yes, that whole ‘daylight savings time’ thing happens every year, but admit it, it stills sneaks up on you, am I right?), and the highway was quite empty, there was a chill in the air, and I was [...]

Article Club

November 18, 2011
Tags:

About a month ago, Amanda read about starting an ‘article club’ on A Cup of Joe, and sent out an email to a group of friends to see if anyone was interested.  The premise is pretty simple… it’s like a book club, except you read an article.  (Man, I should be a teacher I am [...]
