Joli Lapin hops all around London town to sift through all the rubbish and find something special. From retro, vintage, designer to highstreet, charity shop chic has never looked (or tasted!) so good.
One of my favouritest couples in the world, Florian & Phillippa, were kind enough to have myself and Lauren over for dinner last weekend before a big night out. Not only that but the next day they had us ALL over the best Sunday BBQ going away party of all time. The stylish couple have an equally stylish flat and I jumped at the chance to take a few snaps of the decor - Joli Lapin approved! Thank you Flo & Pippa xx
Last Sunday was a very long and very stressful moving day. Poor Nina from Paris had to endure the whole things with us! Its a part of her trip to London she'll probably never forget, but would like to I'm sure!
Well, it was a present form Corsica, really, which might be even better! Nina, a present from Paris herself, came to visit London over the weekend and brought me this beautiful bottle of rose. Mmmm mmm it sure was delicious! When Nina and I get together we consume a lot of wine together. A lot. We LOVE wine. How much? Well, you can probably tell from the pictures above xo
My BFF Rachel made a one-day pit stop in London on her way back to Montreal from her lovely week-long trip in Paris. J'adore that she came to visit, even if it was for just one day! We walked all over London town and (window) shopped til we almost dropped. Wearing heels on our day out together was a bad idea, to rest our sore soles, we stopped into Mrs. Marengo's in Soho for coffee and cake at tea time - it was delicious! Rachel had a fruity nut cake, which to Joli appeared far too healthy for a tea time choice, so opted for the lemon and pistachio slice - yum yum! Be sure to stop by when you're next in the neighborhood, click HERE for more info.
Hooray!! I almost ripped an Evening Standard out of the hands of an old lady sitting across from me on the train last night - NOT because I'm a horrible person that doesn't respect the elderly, but because I was so excited to see my friend Ben and his little colourful baby steamers in a huge feature! I first met Ben at the last London Fashion Week and he very kindly gifted the ELLE fashion team with one of his aqua steamers. Before our very own Fridja steamer, we were stuck with huge, mal-functioning steamers form the 70s that were HELL to use on a daily basis, let along take on shoots. Now, thanks to his kind gift and incredible invention, we pack our little baby up and take it on shoots far and wide! Thank you Ben Fridja! And congrats on this amazing feature, you deserve it!

My lovely BFF, SLC, sent me the best belated b-day/x-mas box full of gifts last week. I came home to find the massive box sitting on my kitchen table and jumped up and down full of excitement. Inside, I found, that SLC had put together a box full of all my favourite things! A super cute Marie Antoinette plate- perfect for Joli's breakfasts! Light blue nail polish a la Clueless (our fave movie ever, obviously), lip care, cute socks, a Brooklyn tote and... RECIPE CARDS!! What Joli has always wanted! Thank you, SLC!! Hearts, hearts, hearts - "WAHevaaaaaah!" xx
Family, friends & great food! The best way to spend Christmas eve. This year the Lowon Pope's hosted a fabulous Xmas eve soiree with an asian fusion theme, it was delicious! Plus I got to watch Miracle on 34th street and was given a new pink YSL lipstick - happy me!!
...Actually, make that Sangria - I'm not too keen on Pimms. 
Happy Canadian Thanksgiving everyone!!
