kindred thrift


My friend Lauren and I were wandering & shopping downtown (as we often do) a few weeks ago ~ popping in and out of cute little shops and sipping our overpriced coffees.
We ended up meeting some lovely girls who run a local online shop called Kindred Thrift, and we all decided to team up to share some outfit inspiration with you!



Kindred thrift is an Etsy shop based out of Calgary AB and Victoria BC.  They believe in giving second hand gems another chance to shine! 

As you all know, I absolutely love to thrift, so this shop is totally up my alley ~ It's so lovely to be able to shop vintage and thrifted pieces without having to search for hours through a second-hand store some days.  One of the girls from Kindred Thrift volunteers in a thrift store, so she's able to pick out some of the absolute best pieces before any one else can get their hands on them!


They have so many adorable pieces online, and also sell their clothes at The Livery Shop (in Calgary) and have done a few pop up shops in Little Gold (Victoria) ~



This is my first outfit post in a long time, so I hope you all enjoyed.  I have lots more style posts planned for this Spring, so make sure to stay tuned!
Also, check out Kindred Thrift on Etsy and let me know what your favourite item from their shop is ~

january // life update


hi again :)

I really envy those that are so good at posting regularly and on a schedule.  I feel like I say this all the time, but I'm going to try to get better... I promise!  Thank you for being patient with me  ♥  you guys are the greatest.

Today I thought I'd give you all a bit of a life update, and talk about what my plan for this blog is in 2017//

Life update:
  • I was hired as a lifeguard/swim instructor
  • I started going to a new church & youth group where I've really grown in my relationship with God, AND I've met some of the loveliest people in the whole world 
  • I'll be finished this semester's exams in 2 days 
As you can probably tell, I've been incredibly busy these past few months (in a good way)!  But as soon as exams are over I'll have a lot more time for this blog.

Blogging Plan for 2017:

This year I'm hoping to post one playlist, and one other post every month :) Leave a comment with any post ideas you'd like to see from me... I'd love to hear your thoughts!  I'm hoping I can stick to this plan, because this blog means a lot to me and I want to put more time into it.  I really want everything I post to stay genuine and inspired //

xoxo
