Easter with Wray (and Agnes!)

 

As is now tradition, this past Easter was spent with my pal Wray and her fantastic family in splendid Connecticut. Agnes, who is no stranger on this blog, joined us this year and captured our stomping through the woods.

That wonderful knit crown is by the adroit knitter, Tara-Lynn of Good Night, Day. The toque is a morel mushroom inspired design knit with fairly traded merino wool from Uruguay. It reminds me a little of the toque Andula wears in Loves of Blonde! You can make your own Petawawa toque with one of Tara-Lynn's brilliant DIY knitting kits or, for those of us less nimble fingered folks, buy one made by her (they come in a range of super soft colour options).

Easter with Wray Part 2

Round two of easter weekend photos!

Wearing another romantic white dress from my favourite spot (and really the only place I shop in NY) Beacon's Closet :D.

Redding with Frances Baker

I'd been saving this gorgeous Frances Baker dress for my now annual trip to Connecticut since it's arrival last month. I wish I could eloquently articulate just how brilliantly constructed this handmade dress is. Josephine lovingly hand crafts all of her garments with deliciously soft and eco friendly fabrics. The quality in construction and material of this dress reminds me of my favored vintage finds, so unlike the disposable fast fashion floating around these days. I am so impressed by Josephine and am excited to watch her collection grow!

Visit her site for her beautifully photographed complete collection here!

Easter with Wray

This weekend was spent with Wray being gigantic babies at her mum's beautiful home in Connecticut. It was a visit full of newborn farm kittens, pizza, ice cream, more icecream, egg painting, egg painting spills, Easy A, dress-up and fog, lots and lots of fog, all ingredients to a perfect sleepover weekend.

Now, pardon me while I go brush my "My Lady Lovely Locks" hair one hundred strokes while watching anime versions of The Little Mermaid.

into the woods today

Pictures from our Easter weekend trip with Wray to her wonderful family home in Connecticut. It was perfect! Again, I must cut this a bit short due to benadryl induced daze (in attempt to tame a collection of itchy red bumps on my face that feel like misquote bites and are refusing to go away. Has this ever happened to any of you?) I've heard that allergies have been particularly bad this season. I promise I'll stop bombarding you with my various skin ailments one day. I made a few silly videos of our last two spring weekends that you can see here and here (featuring turkeys and turtles)!

Goodnight friends!

P.S. Our servers have been down quite a bit these last few weeks so if you've emailed us and not heard back please email us again and we'll get back to you, many apologies for the inconvenience! Also, Landon has made a new website (ANOTHER WEBSITE!) for his design projects - I think it's quite beautiful!
