In an old house in Paris covered by vines, lived twelve little girls in two straight lines.
They left the house at half past nine. 2 straight lines, in rain or shine. The smallest one...was Madeline.

So... funny story about what happened on the day these photos were taken:

In the morning I had received a few texts from Greg who was acting especially sappy and excitable that day. It was a very strange thing because he is never all these things at once so I thought something might be up. He had asked me if I wanted to go to Cullen Gardens with him and told me I should bring my camera. At first I was like ok, no big deal. We're just going for a walk like we always do. But the way he was acting had me suspicious. So then I started thinking of what he could have planned and I started to think: Oh man, I wonder if he's going to propose (I've been watching a lot of bridal shows on TLC when nothing else is on so that's why my mind went there.) Anyways, I threw on a nice outfit and we headed to the park.

During the car ride I decided to ask Greg why he was acting so strange that day. I mean, being in a good mood isn't what had me suspicious. It was the fact that when Greg is REALLY excited about something secretive, he has a hard time hiding it. Turns out he was just in a good mood and the good mood plus the uber sappiness was a coincidence. I told him about my crazy notion about him proposing and he laughed but felt a little bad for leading me on (seriously he wasn't. Like I said before I've watched one too many episodes of Say Yes To The Dress).

Anyways, when we got to the park we decided to take a few outfit photos since I already had my camera and was wearing a cute outfit. The best part however was when we looked over at one of the main buildings and saw the writing on the wall from what I assume was an engagement photoshoot. I pointed it out to Greg and died of laughter because of our earlier conversation. What were the odds of that happening?! It was the funniest thing and we both got a good laugh out of it. I then made Greg take my picture in front of it as a joke because I couldn't get over how funny it was.

Dress: Modcloth | Cardigan: Stitches | Shoes: Modcloth | Hair Flower: Hive & Honey
Belt: Thrifted | Purse: Little Black Bag

So yes, that is the story of my non-existant proposal :)

And if you're wondering where I got the title for the outfit, I give full credit to Bere because she left a comment on my instagram saying this dress with these shoes reminded her of Madeline. And I completely agree. Plus I adored that show as a child.

( ♥ ) birthday surprises! Though this one nearly gave me a heart attack and I ~may~ have screamed bloody murder when I opened my door because I startle VERY easily! It was still a nice surprise from my sister though! And she got a good laugh out of my reaction.

( ) This moss graffiti, or any moss graffiti in fact. I love the way it looks and how you can manipulate it!

( ) The show Bomb Girls! I'm so glad it was picked up for a second season which is a rare thing because it's a Canadian show. What's even cooler is you can now watch it in America too! It's all about women in the 40s helping out with the war effort in a bomb factory. I like it because it deals with all sorts of topics like women's rights, what it was like to be gay in the 40s, and the horrible treatment of certain nationalities during the war. It also holds a special spot in my heart because my Great Grandma was a bomb girl herself!

( ) These cherry trees. I have to remember to visit the botanical gardens again because they have a huge field of them and cherry trees are my favourite!

( ) these feet! It might look like a strange picture to love, but this picture means the return of my favourite Doctor on Doctor Who! I'm so excited to see Matt Smith and David Tennant teamed up!

( ) this super sweet bride! I LOVE everything about her!

( ) Speaking of weddings... I adore Grace Kelly's wedding dress. It's so classic and elegant. Yesterday I watched a documentary on her which made me fall in love with the dress again, however I never really knew what the rest of her life was like. Nor did I realize what a super sad ending it had. :(

( ) These gals and their fabulous dresses!

Other things I'm loving: getting back into blogging day trips to Peterborough with the sisters and boyfriends the sun shining through my curtains pink lemonade The Village Bakery & Deli located in Whitby, Ontario! It's the cutest Dutch bakery and everything is super delicious there! snapchat my scruffy looking pup who needs a haircut because he looks homeless  Breaking Bad birds chirping  painting my nails successful thrifting trips taking the dogs for a walk the zoo

This last picture also makes me want to get some ice cream, so maybe I can convince Greg to come with me after work! Nothing's better than ice cream on a sunny day!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and enjoy this great weather we are having!
