It’s Christmas Eve!!! One day away from quite literally the best day of the year (for me at least). My family is all about traditions…without fail, every year, we have our Christmas Eve perogies, we watch It’s a Wonderful Life, my dad reads us ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas before bedtime, my siblings and I all create a big fort on the floor and sleep in one room, the “kids” all wake up around 5 am and open stockings/collectibles then make our parents coffee, we watch Christmas Story and then finally…FINALLY…we open all our presents!
Christmas already came a bit early for me this year – this stunning cape from Loft 82 was one beautiful present I got to open early, and already it’s become a fast favourite of mine. I’ve always loved the elegant yet unique silhouette of capes, but with the fur trim, it’s given an additional dash of luxe. Love it so much. If you happen to be in one of the Canadian cities that has a Loft 82, an offshoot of the Oak + Fort family, then make a visit ASAP – every thing in there is covet-worthy.
Well, I’m going to take tomorrow off to fully soak in Christmas, so Merry Christmas in advance! I feel so grateful for all the readers who I’ve had the luck of interacting with and getting to know – you’re all amazing! I hope you have the most incredible Christmas. And hey, if you’re in Vancouver, take a break from your Christmas hangover and come meet me in person at Shoppalu’s pop-up shop at the Chinatown Experiment! I’ll be hosting the launch and would love to meet you in person!
Again, Merry Christmas to you and yours! xo
And a Merry Christmas to you too! Your cape is stunning! We used to have a very similar tradition until us kids all moved away. Sure do miss our forts! xoxo

I hope you ate lots of perogies. I didn't get any this year and I'm dating a Ukrainian. I don't know what that's about. Hope you had a marvellous Christmas with your loved ones. And you look stunning as always.
This cape is gorgeous! Merry Christmas!!

if it was snowing anyway! become ordained online Nevertheless, the inclusion of snow contributes nicely to the Christmas feel of the poem, bringing Berlin's song "I'm dreaming of a White Christmas" and the dulcet tones of Bing Crosby to mind.
