Edmo







Newbies for Northern Alberta!

Can we say Tiger's eye, Lapis and Turquoise? Im totally channeling my grandmothers hippie ways. I dont know why but there is something decidedly 70's about that combination of stones. Either way, I loves 'em!

p.s I'm really stoked on the first image - I should explain. Last summer my little cousins and I would lay around out at the lake and make friendship bracelets on a giant blanket on the beach. Well, I frankly felt a little silly wearing mine around all the time, but it's summer and for some reason it kinda worked. This year I decided I would let the friendship bracelet grow up a little and feel no shame wearing it! The end result is the chain combo, which I have embellished further with another one similar because we all know friendship bracelets always looked way cooler after two weeks at camp and an arm full of new bands and colours. Also, the best part of this new version is you don't have to wait for the strands to fray to take these guys off.

because I dont spend enough time in front of the computer



I started another blog - this one is more to do with clothes and other such passions that lay not so dormant in my mind.

meander your way here....

http://millicentdesigns.tumblr.com/

because i'm too lazy to post twice today, and i have to admit I like Tumblr for the photo slide show thingy - it's so much easier.

On other news.... it's getting GREEN here in Calgary. I noticed it today when walking the dog to Purr on 17th ave (to drop off a slew of earrings and a few necklaces) and let me tell you I am happy! After spending a week in Vancouver I was feeling depressed to come home to brown grass and no flowers, you people in Van city are so lucky! My mood has since been lifted as it has been a balmy 21-25 degree weather here in Alberta! I have slept with my windows open and the fan on all week, awesome! Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, finally buds are appearing on the trees and the grass in slowly going from dead and brown to soft and green. I loves it!

p.s: Can I get a hallelujah for no socks again until Oct? Hallelujah!

New Parlour Out Today, Featuring Millicent Jewelry!

So remember when I was telling you all about the Parlour Photo shoot I styled back in February - it was excellent fun, and a lot of work? You know, the one I managed to sneak some Millicent Jewelry into the shoot? WELL GUESS WHAT?... after much anticipation the magasine just hit coffee shops and boutiques here in Calgary today! (It has been in Edmonton for a few days already, those lucky kids)

Well now I am just about to leave to a coffee shop with Laura Ramsey, the wonderful photographer responsible for all the beautiful, mystical images, to drool over a printed, TANGIBLE copy of all our hard work. Exciting? Yes!

Now, for all you non-albertan living pals that actually read this thing...( you know who you are, and by the way, I LOVE AND MISS YOU) do not FRET, Laura has kindly emailed me some digital images for me to put up on this here blog.

So there you have it kids. Now, this weekend Laura and I are taking on the movie world! Laura is filming a short movie and I am styling it! Whoop Whoop! Things are looking up!
