Happy Friday!!!

Happy Friday! I hope you enjoyed a great week! I attended a fun reunion last night, getting together with former classmates from University.  I also managed to get lots of work done and am reedy to wind down for the weekend.

I will have an amazing giveaway on Monday...

In the meantime, have a great weekend!

I'm now looking forward to a very relaxing weekend ahead.

I hope you enjoyed a fantastic week! I was able to get so much writing done and it feels great! The weather was spectacular and it finally feels as though Spring is here to stay. Tiny flowers have bloomed in the garden which is always very uplifting.

What do you have planned for the weekend? There is interesting exhibit about the colors of India ending on Sunday in Montreal.

Also, the renowned  Alvin Ailey Dance troop is performing here this weekend, which promises to be a great show.

 Have a great weekend!

Happy Friday!! I hope you had a wonderful week! Mine was hectic and involved working until midnight three nights in a row, attending a family get together and dealing with a water problem.

Needless to say, I'm looking for some relaxation and down time and hopefully, a yoga class.

I came across another gorgeous Taschen book that celebrates the beauty of the City of Light through photographs. It looks divine, n'est-ce pas?

Mine included lots of work and a lovely dinner with friends during the Montreal en Lumière Festival.

I also found the mascot for my upcoming novel, J'Adore Paris. I posted a picture of this frenchie feline on my Facebook page and asked friends to find a name for my new charming friend and was astounded at the great name suggestions received. If you have any other ideas, please let me know.

Happy Friday! I hope you had a great week! I was thrilled yesterday afternoon driving back from my yoga class to notice that the days are getting longer, which means that spring is on its way!

Speaking of spring, isn't the dsquared trench coat above simply fabulous? I could definitely see myself wearing it.  The entire resort collection is amazing. You can take a look at it here.

I also came across this video which is a love letter to New York City by Tory Burch, timely for Valentine's day.

Don't forget to participate in my giveaway below, a new book has been added to the lot!

Happy Friday! Another week has swooshed by!   I hope yours was fantastic. Mine was a bit crazy with lots of personal developments, including an upcoming move. 

I discovered this great cover by Ingrid Michaelson, and I can't seem to get it out of my mind.  I guess I'll be humming this great tune all weekend.

Happy Friday: Travel Inspiration!!

Happy Friday! Hope you're having a fantastic week ( despite the dreary rainy weather, beurk!)  When my dear friend Michel sent mea photo he took on a recent trip to Peru, I was captivated by the gorgeous colors of the woman's shawl and decided to create an inspiration board from the palette. Do you like it?

I will be doing some traveling soon and I've started looking out for some fun resort pieces. I think I'll be using this blue palette as g foundation for my research.

As a reminder, please follow my new blog, The Fashionable Writer, I have lots of great giveaways coming up!

Have a great day!
