PREGNANCY DIARY: 7 DAYS LATE UPDATE

Well it's officially one week past my due date and we still have not gone into labour. It's very common for first time babies to be late, and a lot of our friends were 7/8 days late before they went into labour. We have a few Doctor appointments this week to keep monitoring my body, but if I haven't gone into labour towards end of the week I will be "induced." I will try to keep my digital journal updated..

Above at Toronto Fashion Week early 2013, approx. 4-weeks pregnant.

Our boy is really smart, the longer we wait until he arrives, the more I buy.. Found these awesome stuffed animals at Indigo Books + Gifts on the weekend. They had a buy 3 get the 4th free promotion so I bought these three stuffed animals, and we received a parenting book N8 wanted for free. Happy Holidays!

FALLING INTO SPRING

It was hard for me to miss all of the attention on Autumn/Winter 2012's hot, new colour, "Oxblood" this past year. I'm not much for coveting trends unless they work for my style in general. I historically ALWAYS buy black shoes; flats, heels, boots, Black is my colour of choice 98% of the time. Tan/Camel is my other colour choice for footwear. Recently I did something I don't normally do and in a colour I have never worn, I purchase Oxblood, JETT ankle boots designed by Natalie & Dylana Suarez for ModernVice in NYC. I have owned red shoes in the past and it's been in the back of my mind I haven't stepped outside my black comfort zone in a while, and was wondering what shoe would make me do so. And here we have it..

I recently saw on Twitter through a personally trusted "influencer" I follow (can't remember who it was), an update that called out specifically the colour Emerald Green for 2013. Well, what a coincidence that the next day I stumble across this gorgeous Tibi, Emerald Green Blouse..
