met up with my cousin for coffee yesterday apres work. is it annoying to mix random french words into my posts? hope not, i’m guilty of doing this tout le temps. anyway, you might know mel as miss melissa and it’s true, we are related. we’re just one big fashion blogging family! it was a beautiful evening and we sat on the starbucks patio swapping gossip and healthy recipes. i laugh that we were so uninspired by the strip mall around us, and yet the parking lot pictures turned out really well. almost looks like we’re in california instead of coquitlam. does that count as a vacation to cali? i’ll take it.

    It really does look like you're in Cali. LOL! I live in northern california. You totally could've gotten away with saying you went on a mini vacation here. And tell everyone I took your pics! hahaha!

    Love the look. You and your friend are beautiful!

    Love your mix of french words. 😉 AND love, love this beautiful look, you girls both look absolutely gorgeous in that last shot and Melissa needs to come to one of our meet ups sometime soon. Have a great night lovely. xo

    I think you can count these photos as a trip to California, because you have a much more exciting trip in your future- France!! I'm thrilled for you, and will probably give you far more tips than you will reasonably be able to use while you're there 🙂 [On another France related note, the French words don't bother me at all- although it might be different if I didn't know French.]

    This look is exactly what I think of when I think of stylish Vancouver girls. You are doing all of us proud in your hat and maxi 🙂
    xox,

    Ah I love that maxi on you, I tried it on, but in black, I say it look quite awkward on me, but you definitely rock it! I can't believe that's Coquitlam, I thought you took an impromptu vacation down to L.A. or something 🙂

    P.S. You two are so adorable! So gorgeous!

  • CessOviedo August 5, 2011 at 4:08 am

    How cool is that your cousin blogs too! Mel looks as sweet as you, and you look divine in that maxi!

    You and Melissa look great. It's funny how the blandest of places can actually make for deceiving backdrops. Too bad Coquitlam isn't actually Cali!

    xo, alison*elle

  • Lauren W August 5, 2011 at 4:31 am

    Oh the irony – I am in CA right now (San Fran to be precise) and its way nicer in Vancouver…

    You always look so chic and comfortable, and I love Melissa's cameo on your blog (and your cameo on hers). You two are my favorite northern neighbors!

    P.S. So I finally found you on Twitter through Melissa. So excited. I feel like you're in my junior high homeroom or something.
