18 karat design

I am having some issues with this post. I read Style at Home, and they often feature the Vancouver store 18 Karat, and then I read blogs and see how ‘fabulous’ it is…………. the problem? when I visit the website, I am a little less excited…… (sorry, but maybe it’s just me?) however, I found some good finds (and also a few good pictures…I do like the store front!!!) and if you are ever in the Vancouver area (cough cough, certain someones….) then check it out and let me know!

 

new boots!

after many many many searches, I have found and ordered my new dream boots……..allow me to introduce, J Crew Glenbrae Boots! I am throughly excited them to arrive
