Floral Fridays | Peonies & Lupins

One of my favourite things about Spring/Summer is the abundance of flowers that surround me. 

I have dedicated every Friday to post a photo of flowers on Instagram. It makes me insanely happy and nothing brings me as much joy as planting flowers and watching them grow, or arranging a gorgeous bouquet. 

Lupins are considered to be weeds and grow in ditches or on the side of the highway. They always bring me back to Summer days as a child visiting the East Coast of Canada, and now that I live on the East Coast of Canada I can enjoy the lovely lupins whenever I am on a drive with my Vespa or walking around. 

Peonies are one of my favourite flowers, they are very hard to find around where I live, but every year I manage to get my hands on some lovely pink blooms. My Mom has a gorgeous peony bush at her house, and I planted one at my old house too! 

Check out my lupin/peonies from this week! 

Happy floral Friday, babes!

Over the years my bio has changed on all my social media platforms. My Etsy profile was the one who said who I wanted to be. 

"I've got dreams of macarons, tall buildings, a colourful pastel apartment with black and white photos on the walls and a closet full of pretty dresses. I'm in love with the fashion of the the mod 1960's, free-spirited 1970's, goth 1980's, grunge 1990's, and cyber-chic 2000s, but the chic 1950's are my most favorite. One day I am going to live in France, collect vintage dresses, ride a yellow Vespa and eat chocolate croissants for breakfast. "

I can finally say that I have accomplished one of my "One Day" dreams. I now am the proud owner of a beautiful canary yellow Vespa. Stay tuned for the days of me driving this baby all around town and featuring her in numerous photoshoots. 

Her name is Daphne Lola. Two names because I couldn't choose just ONE! (For your reference, my car is named Blue Betty). Meep meep!
