An Afternoon in the Park

We had the most gorgeous weather this weekend after weeks and weeks of rain and clouds. Signs of summer are finally showing and now I can bring out the sandals. We cannot pass up the opportunity to bring Kaitlyn out for a stroll in the park and soak up some vitamin D. And of course, mommy can always use this chance for another outfit shoot.





































As I was editing the pictures, I realized how pale my legs are. Time to try some self-tanning products!

















These gold Amrita Singh bangles are amazing. I normally don't wear bangles as they are always too big for me. But the good thing about these Amrita Singh bangles is they come in different sizes. And a size 6 is perfect for my tiny wrist. A side note though, I got these on sale for $28 USD. When DHL showed up at my door, I had to pay a brutal $14 CAD for duty and custom. Why are the taxes in Canada so outrageous? 




















What is a better way to end this gorgeous day other than enjoying a delicious home cooked meal with your loved ones. Since hubby is a huge "carnivore", hence for all the meat dishes.

:: What I am Wearing ::
Top: Banana Republic
Skirt: Aritzia
  Shoes: BCBG
Bag: Louis Vuitton
Accessories: Amrita Singh Bangles, Juicy Couture Bracelet

    Lovely outfit! I really like the red:) But I think is looks so much better on people with dark hair then blondes, so I never wear it..
    Love Änglamark.

    Thanks for visiting my blog, it's always so great to find other Vancouver bloggers!! Now follow you :)

    Amrita Singh makes the most gorgeous accessories... did you get yours from one of the recent Hautelook sales? I hate when you think you got a good deal and the stupid customs & duties ruins it all!
