It's over.... but it's far from over!

Bonjour!

I just finished my last exam! For this term that is. I'm sitting on my bed enjoying a glass of wine and watching some tv before I doze off and get some much needed sleep! I can't wait for summer to begin and I'm loving this mild weather. Sorry no outfit posts yet, I haven't been thinking about taking pictures but I have been putting some thought into my outfits which is a big step! I've made lots of purchases that I can't wait to share with you all. I'm also on the hunt for the most perfect mary janes and booties.... which I haven't been able to find in two years! So wish me luck and I look forward to waking up to mornings like these!


I love this light! Looking forward to many other posts!
Love,
Ada

Oh Happy Day!!!

Bonjour!


I have a special announcement for all the ladies out there (although I'm sure the gentlemen will enjoy this too): Victoria's Secret will be opening stores in Canada this summer!!! They will be opening a location in Edmonton and one in Toronto at Yorkdale Mall in August. I love the Victoria's Secret fashion shows and I have bought quite a few things online but I can't wait for an actual store!!!

Speaking of online shopping, I've indulged in a few items and will share them with you. Once my exams are done on Monday, a few outfit posts are to come, a spring cleaning post and a few other things I've been planning but haven't quite started. I look forward to making many more and regular posts!

Love,
Ada

Keep Calm... Have a Cupcake!!!

Bonjour!


      I think I'm going through a cupcake withdrawl.. I haven't had one since my birthday.. That is a very long time. This coming from a girl who's lunch consists of a tall skinny vanilla latte and TWO chocolate bloom cupcakes from Starbucks. (Triple Grande Extra Hot no Foam Skinny Vanilla Latte is my breakfast.. I need the extra espresso shots!) I cannot wait for my exams to be over and to have a clean room again. My room is covered in piles of clothes and an organized mess of piles of papers and notes. I have to get back to my studying but maybe tomorrow I will indulge in a cupcake and Shoppers is having 20x the points!! I need to go and pick up some perfume, I'm running dangerously low. Can you guess which one it is?

       I got Miss Cherie Dior as a Christmas gift from my uncle probably 4 years ago and I fell in love and so did everyone else around me. I have tried some other scents (Viva La Juicy is another fave) but I keep going back to this and everyone says it smells like me, which I will take as a compliment :). So now you know where my blog name came from and the fleur means flower in french and I LOVE flowers. I will try very hard to look put together for my exams as I hate when people let themselves go. My first university exam consisted of a huge convention hall filled with rows of nervous students that were pretty much in sweat pants and sweaters and didn't smell so nice :S. So, to all exam writers out there: Good Luck on your exams and please at least shower! Besides, you tend to feel more confident and refreshed when you're freshly showered and put together.

I'll try to take some pics of my outfits during my exams.. thank goodness I don't have an exam until Thursday so I don't have to pull any major cram sessions. Be back soon!

Love,
Ada

It's almost over....

Bonjour!

I've spent the past week writing an exam (fingers crossed I did well), working a little and doing a little shopping. I got some great stuff and many pictures will follow. For now, I've gotta get back to studying... 3 more exams and then I can look forward to my summer holidays!! I'll be working a lot this summer and doing some school in the summer :( but.... I will be going to Florida in May and Vegas sometime after that. I can't wait! These vacations will much needed. It's supposed to rain this weekend but I look forward to sharing my new puppy with you all. His name is Coco and he is adorable!!! Stay tuned.

Love,
Ada

The festivities continue.....

Bonjour!
Yesterday I continued the birthday festivities by going to this french patisserie place (I'll save the details for another post) and had the most amazing roasted corn soup EVER!! I need to hunt down this recipe! I went there to grab some dessert, which is absolutely amazing, but I was so hungry that I decided to have lunch there as well and I was very impressed! Later on in the evening I went for sushi with one of my girlies, which was also amazing... All in all, I was very spoiled yesterday and I loved it! (My tummy was definately happy!) Unfortunately, I didn't get to take any pics of my outfit, which is a shame because I wore a cute skirt, but you will see my skirt on this blog one day very soon. In order to compensate, I leave you with these amazing pictures of Doutzen Kroes taken by Photographer Alexi Lubomorski. Enjoy!

This is my absolute favourite!!!!

It's raining .... but I don't mind!

Bonjour!


I created this blog about a month ago and couldn't figure out what my first post would be so I decided to celebrate my blog's birthday with my birthday! So Happy Birthday Blog and Happy 21st Birthday to me! I spent the day grabbing some coffee, cupcakes and going to class :(


Although it was raining and gloomy outside, I still managed to have a great time! I'm trying out this whole "positive attitude thing" and it's been working out so far! And since it was raining, I decided to get decked out in my rain gear! How can you not be happy with a hot pink umbrella?!



I'm wearing: Vero Moda Trench (Denise Sherway) Black Talula Tights (Aritzia) Burberry Rainboots (Saks Fith Avenue Online) Juicy Couture Laptop Bag (Blue Marine & Co. Eaton Centre) and Holt Renfrew Umbrella

Since I am smack dab in the middle of exams, I can't really do anything too exciting for my birthday but as of April 26 I am a free woman!! (until September of course!) However, I do have alot of fun things planned for this blog so be sure to check back soon!!!

AND remember, April Showers bring May Flowers!
