Pretty Pretty Peonies

I had such a lovely weekend with my sister and her family in Regina. And as such, I recruited my sister to be my blogger assistant for the weekend!!! So, not only did I convince her to take my weekly photos but she also did my make-up!! Although she has a professional day job, she secretly loves everything about make-up! And if you ask me, I think that she did a splendid job with me!! Welcome to her photo/make-up debut!!

It is currently the season for peonies in Saskatchewan. And since my sister has the most amazing peonies in her front yard, I couldn't miss the opportunity to take some photos of them!! I think a bouquet of pink peonies would be so lovely for a wedding. I wanted these for my wedding, but sadly they were out of season when we got married. But, I will definitely have these for my second wedding (Dominic and I had so much fun at our first wedding that we have decided that we will get married every ten years. Why not right?)!

Shirt: Mexx (my sister's)

Pants: Zara

Shoes: Repetto

P.S - We also took some pics of my sister and since I absolutely love the 70's vibe of shot, I thought I would share it with you!!

Love,

Karen

T-Post - The World's First Wearable Magazine!

Have you ever heard of T-Post? It is the world's first news source that is printed on cotton!! Here's how it works. Every six months the company takes a few of the top headlines from around the world, then they get an artist to draw a corresponding image to match the news article. The news article is then printed on the inside of the Tee and the artist rendition is printed on the outside of the tee. When you subscribe, they mail you a brand new t-shirt every six weeks.

I have been in love with the idea since I first heard about it!! As such, I have been gifting subscriptions every chance I get. With the last subscription I gifted, I got a free t-shirt of my very own (we actually ordered it is size Large for Dominic but it came in size small, so I guess it is mine). So, this is the maiden voyage of the T-Post shirt - definitely a conversation piece!!
