Mid-February Favourites

I really enjoy the idea of having monthly "favourites," but somewhere between the good intentions at the beginning of the month and the end of the month, the list is lost somewhere and it is never finished or thought of again. So, here is my list of favourites even though there is something like 11 days left of February.

Let's go.

Jade succulent ($7) from Dynasty Toronto - I want to start getting more into plants. I feel like this is a super white-new age-hipster-hippie thing to say, but I don't care. It's a proven fact that plants can make you feel happier or calmer, or whatever the proven fact is. The greenery is nice. Seeing life around you is nice. Plus, Dynasty is a super cute shop and visiting it is just precious.

My new glasses. 

The process of journaling - So I have a small collection of personal journals. They're stacked on top of my wall shelf unit. There's six in total. 5 black Moleskine journals, and a white one that I bought from Chapters when I was 13. I'm on my sixth black Moleskine journal. Journaling is an off-and-on thing for me. I always have a journal (it acts more like a scrapbook), but I don't always write or draw or collage into it. Lately, I've been really trying to get back into my journal though. Most recently, it's a lot of drawing.

Ikea's Valje wall cabinets in white. 

Hot water bottle. 

Winter outfit combination - Jeans, winter wool socks, Blundstone lookalikes from Doc Martens, oversized peppery light grey wool coat from Forever 21, giant Wilfred scarf, some kind of turtleneck sweater, black bag.

Nivea hand cream - My cold broken hands need constant relief from hand cream.
