good.

I had a good start to my day, by winning a giveaway over at Kup Kup Land! I can't wait to see the little pin cushion, and amazingly detailed buttons! Check out the blog for sure.
As for my shopping day... fabulous! Jenna was a HUGE help, and definitely knew what to pick out for me.  This outfit in particular, she picked out.  I NEVER shop at Le Chateau, I think I'm scared to go in there. So fancy, and girly.... and I'm more of a comfy, boyish, grey type girl... but today:
I looked more like a business owner! (which I will be in 2 more days!)
Here's one of my favorite items I got during the spree:
checkered spring jacket from Jacob.  LOVE the jackets from that store.
Thanks so much Jenna, for helping me look girly and professional! :)  I want you to be my shopping partner forever and ever.
One store that she introduced me to was Aritzia.
It was such a pretty store! So modern and classic at the same time, decor wise.  I definitely want to go there in the near future (but with more $$$)  I checked out the site, and I love it! The models are so pretty, and I love the photography!!  These are my favorites.




ooh ooh! I got cuuuute earrings in the mail today from Hi Tree.  I love Tina's work soooo much.

(ps, the blue hair is gone tomorrow, I'm sick of it already. One week is enough, for fun.) :D

So on Wednesday.....

..will be ours!  I'm nervous as well as excited.  I can't wait to clean it, and set up all the new product.  This image is for the sign design, and now I have to go and work on the business cards... wish I didn't have to do it myself, but that's what the budget says I have to do.  I'll probably be glad in the end....

xoxo, holly
ps. I want to do a giveaway on Wednesday, in light of the new business!! So check back for that!

  4. Nice outfits. I love Aritzia. They had this sweet leather jacket last time I was at the mall, but it was $550.. :( I want to buy something from there someday, but I have to have some cash on hand.

    Good logo pick! :)
