Nothing to hide

How chic are these Loewe's suitcases? Maybe you'll be able to skip security with them!

Longing for this long look!

From Hat to flats, I love this look! Special mention to Kiera Knighltey's man too, who ever he is!(Via)

New in our Jukebox























Latest tracks by theheadandtheheart

Last weekend was Calgary's Folk Fest, and it was a really fun time!! A full weekend of riding our bikes to the park for amazing music under the sun, with friends, sampling great food, what could be better? Even though there was lots of good shows from various talented artists, my highlight is definitely a Seattle band called  The head and the Heart that got everyone up on their feet the whole show! I just got their album on iTunes, and it's been on repeat since.That's how much I like it.  I feel I should also mention that Joel Plaskett and Coeur de Pirate's respective shows were amazing ! I already miss Folk Fest...

A great summer movie!


























Ceremony is a touching story about crazy, irrational love and true friendship. It's set in a breathtaking cottage on a beach, with a eclectic, free spirited, over the top group of people. The styling, decor and attention to detail take you on a beautiful journey, where the story line almost stop being important, just because everything you see is so pretty and unique. I wish I get invited to such an enchanting week-end one day! I highly recommend you pour yourself a nice iced tea in a crystal glass, and just let yourself be carried away by Ceremony.

Who you need to know now


Meet Lana Del Rey, self proclaimed "Gangsta Nancy Sinatra" is making big waves in the UK! Following the trend of powerful rich voices like Adele's and Amy Winehouse's, she brings a playful vintage vibe that is sure to make you tap you feet and put a smile on your face! I absolutely love it! The video above is " Kinda outta Luck" it starts slow, but quickly becomes awesome! Her current hit in the UK is "Video Games", you should also check out " Diet MTN Dew " .

"Baby put on heart shapes sunglasses 'cause we're gonna go for a ride!"- Lana Del Rey :)

ahhh Summer...

What a great time we had! There is something so reinvigorating about spending time in the sun, breathing fresh air, eating from the local land, running in vineyards, hanging out with a two year old... It was a fun filled little vacation!

Ps: not an actual photo of our trip, unfortunately! It's via every day I show, a great source of stunning vintage images!

Wurst, it's really not that bad!

A few weeks ago, we tried a new restaurant in Mission, called Wurst, and it was the best! We were there the second night the place was in operation and everything was seamless! The service was great, the food was good and the ambiance was electric! What a refreshing experience it is to dine under giant trees, pick from an original German menu, and an interesting wine and beer selection. You can even arrange to have them keep your own stein!  After dinner, make your way downstairs for a few drinks in a very laid back ambiance. It's also a great spot for people watching (oh come on, we all do it!), folks looked really good!

Link to the restaurant here, online reservation available.
Wurst, 2437 4th ST SW Calgary
