<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Hey everyone! With a break now from school, I decided to indulge myself in some summer reading. Since I've always been interested in the business-side of fashion, I chose to read books by some of the greatest female entrepreneurs namely, Sophia Amoruso (founder of <a href="http://nastygal.com/">nastygal.com</a>) and Pamela Skaist-Levy and Gela Nash-Taylor (co-founders of Juicy Couture). Check out the summaries below and let me know if your thoughts if you've read these too!</div>

I chose to read Sophia Amoruso's "#GIRLBOSS" since she made fashion e-commerce history with her successful company <a href="http://www.nastygal.com/" target="_blank">NastyGal</a>. NastyGal is an online store that specializes in vintage-y type clothes for everyday to formal wear. Sophia didn't have a fancy post-secondary education, nor do I remember her finishing high school either. After a couple of odd-end jobs, one of which included checking ID's at a university, she started re-selling scavenged vintage finds using eBay as her platform and MySpace to keep in touch with her customers. She ran it as a home-based business at first using just a steamer and handling all the shipping herself. Eventually she purchased a warehouse and transitioned NastyGal to its own website to meet demand, but it only skyrocketed from there. After moving to an even larger warehouse, she started signing deals with other designers at fashion trade shows to keep up the variety NastyGal has to offer.</div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I also decided to read Pam and Gela's "The Glitter Plan"as I was always interested in what inspired <a href="http://www.juicycouture.com/" target="_blank">Juicy Couture</a>'s signature top-to-toe velour look. The iconic duo met while working retail in a small boutique and it was an instant connection. They began by making stylish maternity wear, seeing the gap in the market and were successful in selling re-fashioned Levi's with an extra roomy elastic around the waist. After that venture, they decided to start a line of clothing they would wear and love. It began with a trip to Japanese fashion hub, Harajuku that inspired their collection of fitted t-shirts which were accepted by a handful of retailers. But as Juicy began to pick up speed, Pam and Gela came up with the idea for stylish lounge-appropriate tracksuits and started designing them first out of bright-colored terry cloth, then out of rich-hued velour. Juicy's sales grew so fast that they attracted attention of larger companies that were interested in buying their company. In 2003, Juicy Couture was bought by Liz Claiborne (now known as Fifth and Pacific Companies) for $53.1 million dollars. With the direction and experience of the Claiborne personnel, Juicy Couture expanded its product line and had unhindered sales growth for a couple of years. Pam and Gela remained as the creative co-directors till 2010 when they were replaced and subsequently left their company. In December 2013, the company was sold to Authentic Brands for $195 million dollars and the duo went off to launch another line called Pam & Gela. </div>

I made two trips to my local Chapters and literally parked myself in a chair and read them each in one go while sipping on my fave cookie crumble Starbucks frappuccinos. </div>

<a href="http://www.katespade.com/" target="_blank">Kate Spade</a> is well-known for their bright and colourful handbags that have just a touch of new york luxe. Many would consider their accessories investment pieces as the prices are somewhere between high-end and designer. But luckily there's an option for us who want in on the vibrant and distinctive goodies, without hurting our wallet as much.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.saturday.com/" target="_blank">Kate Spade Saturday</a> is a spin-off of the original brand, but is catered more to the casual taste. There you can find the wild and bold printed accessories and clothing at more of a main floor department store price.<br />

Have a look through my faves and let me know what you think of Kate Spade Saturday!<br />

Hey everyone! I've been really busy lately but I'm so glad I can finally get back to one of the activities I enjoy the most - blogging! So without further ado, I'd like to share with you some of the staple items I've seen online, in malls that I may or may not already own.<br />
<br />
1) <a href="http://www.express.com/clothing/drawstring+track+pant/pro/1567915/cat320074" target="_blank">Drawstring Track Pant</a> - $59.90 CAD (Express)<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I bought a pair of these during one of Express' 40 % off everything sales so it was around $35 CAD total. I wish I had known this earlier, but if you present a student and SPC card at the time of purchase, you can get an additional 10 % off the deal any deal offered. I'm always watching the deals at Express so follow me on Twitter and I'll let you know when a good sale comes up!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Anyways, I've practically been living in these for the past couple of weeks as they're so easy to match with practically anything. They can be dressed up with a plain tee and statement necklace for a more stylish occasion or just worn casually with a knit sweater. This is definitely something I'll be wearing throughout the spring and summer and perhaps into early fall. If you happen to purchase these pants, be sure to turn it inside out while washing to prevent the outer layer of fabric from pilling (kinda learnt that one the hard way).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

2) <a href="http://www.express.com/clothing/reversible+vtoneck+racerback+cami/pro/8569782/cat1040024" target="_blank">Reversible V-Neck Racerback Cami</a> - $39.90 CAD (Express)</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Words cannot express my love for these reversible lightweight camis. Again I bought a couple of these throughout the year during their 40 - 50 % off sales, so in actuality I paid around $20 for each of them. But if you think about it, since each top can technically be two then you're actually getting each top for a mere $10 CAD when on sale. Compared to the $60 ones at Aritzia or the $30 ones I've seen at Topshop, this is a spectacular deal. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I love how versatile these tops are because you can wear them under blazers and skirts to business formal events or just casually under cardigans and jean jackets. One of my favourite looks would have to be styling this with cuffed jeans with my favourite military jacket on top. I will have to feature this in a future OOTD post. </div>

I've been really into loose pants lately mostly because they're just so comfy! When I first saw this pair I fell in love with the colours and the pattern and purchased it to reward myself for recent hard work. Patterned harem pants are a must-have for spring and summer and I can't wait to wear them with all of my summer shoes!</div>

I'm a really big fan of prints that mix bright and dark colours in an abstract sort of way. I've also been searching for a nice pair of printed shorts that I can just throw on with plain tops and ankle booties. I guess that's what made me try on this pair of shorts when I visited Dynamite the other day. They're super comfortable and good quality but I'm still a little hesitant about paying $30 for a pair of shorts. I hope to use store coupons that they gave me that day next month to buy them for around $24 or possibly less!</div>

I've been looking around for a cute romper to wear with neon necklaces and I happened to find this one on the Express website. I love the high-waist fit and the sophistication the ruffles add. This can be a great go-to piece of clothing for brunch with friends or a day out shopping! It also comes in <a href="http://www.express.com/clothing/ruffled+zip+front+romper/pro/7831672/cat2002" target="_blank">black</a> For now this is going to go on my wish list and I will be watching for the next great sale so that I can hopefully purchase it for half the price or less. </div>

Hey everyone!<br />
<br />
Really sorry about not being in the blogosphere lately, I've been really busy with school. But now with a little extra time on my hands, I'd like to share with you my latest obsession: statement necklaces! As spring is approaching, I thought I'd add a few of these colourful beauties to my collection to throw on over white tees and under blouses for a chic yet sophisticated look.<br />
<br />
I personally love the multi-coloured floral statement necklaces because it can stand out on its own and just speak for itself.<br />
<br />
Below are some of my favourites all under $50, I hope you find one that suits your budget.<br />

Lately I've been trying to find a pair of those stylish cut-out booties everyone's been raving about that can instantly glam up an outfit. Seriously, you can wear 'em with tight coloured skinnies, soft harem pants or a circle skirt and totally rock the look.<br />

Below are a couple of affordable options:<br />

Hey everyone! After spending a week cleaning out my closet, I thought I'd give you the opportunity to take some articles off my hands. Some of these are clothes I didn't get the chance to wear or those that no longer fit my personal style.

Hey everyone! I was at Urban Outfitters the other day kicking it up at their 50% off reduced merchandise sale (gotta love these) and thought I would share my favourite pick from my mini haul. I picked up a pair of brown crochet wedge sneakers, mostly in lieu of my brown boot search and need for new sneakers. These were originally $90 and I got them for around $20, which I thought was a pretty good deal. Wedge sneakers can be worn with leggings or skinny jeans, and can act as a great statement piece. As much as I love these, I'd probably avoid wearing em in the rainy Vancouver weather. </div>

It's been a while since I've done an obsession post, so I really hope you like this one! For over a week now, I've been telling my friends about these super cute n' comfy sweatshirts I saw on the <a href="http://www.romwe.com/" target="_blank">Romwe</a> website.

I was scrolling through my Instagram feed a few days ago and came across <a href="http://lovejunkee.storenvy.com/" target="_blank">Love Junkee</a>, an online boutique that carries affordably priced trendy street-style clothing for the budget-savvy fashionista. Below are some pieces that I would definitely purchase for the Fall season!<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://dzasv7x7a867v.cloudfront.net/product_photos/6413544/IMG_4686_original.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://dzasv7x7a867v.cloudfront.net/product_photos/6413544/IMG_4686_original.jpg" width="341" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://lovejunkee.storenvy.com/products/2687205-infinity-anchor-crop-sweatshirt" target="_blank">Infinity Anchor Crop Sweatshirt</a> - $17 CAD</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I am in love with this sweater because of the infinity and anchor sign, I guess it kind of reminds me those Brandy Melville tops! Throw on some tights and high waisted shorts with this sweatshirt, but don't forget a beanie to keep your head warm too. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://d2a2wjuuf1c30f.cloudfront.net/product_photos/4530675/IMG_4314_original.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://d2a2wjuuf1c30f.cloudfront.net/product_photos/4530675/IMG_4314_original.jpg" width="308" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://lovejunkee.storenvy.com/products/2090858-je-taime-crewneck-more-colors" target="_blank">Je T'aime Crewneck</a> - $17 CAD</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Graphic sweatshirts are definitely my go-to item when it's rainy outside. Pair this crew neck with your tribal print leggings and just for style, wear a cropped leather jacket on top.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://d1nr5wevwcuzuv.cloudfront.net/product_photos/4802724/IMG_4403_original.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://d1nr5wevwcuzuv.cloudfront.net/product_photos/4802724/IMG_4403_original.jpg" width="275" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://lovejunkee.storenvy.com/products/1765991-hamsa-tank" target="_blank">Hamsa Tank</a> - $15 CAD</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Keeping with the graphic print theme here, a tank like this is great to wear under your cozy boyfriend sweaters and acid-wash ripped jeans. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://d3u67r7pp2lrq5.cloudfront.net/product_photos/5884104/photo_original.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://d3u67r7pp2lrq5.cloudfront.net/product_photos/5884104/photo_original.jpg" width="310" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://lovejunkee.storenvy.com/products/2687895-zodiac-leggings" target="_blank">Zodiac Leggings</a> - $25 CAD</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I definitely need some printed leggings like this to spice up simple outfits and make a statement. Pair these with short bright rain boots and a chunky knitted pullover for the casual look. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://dzasv7x7a867v.cloudfront.net/product_photos/3661659/IMG_3687_original.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://dzasv7x7a867v.cloudfront.net/product_photos/3661659/IMG_3687_original.jpg" width="318" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://lovejunkee.storenvy.com/products/1685238-secret-garden-denim-dress" target="_blank">Secret Garden Denim Dress</a> - $20 CAD</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So I guess this is one of those summer transition items that can be layered to get the Fall look. Pair this dress with tights, a dark leather jacket and a pearl headband for a cute casual outfit. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
Today's the first official day of Fall, can you believe it? With the on and off rainy-sunny weather here in Vancouver I needed some quick go-to outfits, appropriate for this season. After a solid closet clean out I unearthed my classy <a href="http://oakandfort.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=18_65&product_id=604" target="_blank">black tunic</a> from <a href="http://www.oakandfort.com/" target="_blank">Oak and Fort</a> and had a mini photo shoot. The black tunic is definitely my must-have for this season because it's a versatile, simple base piece that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
You have your typical wireframe earring stands, the fancy dress mannequins and other tree-like or grater-like structures. After searching my home for any of the listed, I came up empty-handed. And sometimes, frustration is a fortune because I turned my creative gears on. I found these small furniture sets that I used to collect all the time but really, you can use any of those misfit dollhouse chairs you have lying in the back of your closet. </div>

Something you should know about me by now is that I'm an ardent supporter of local small businesses and most things fashion-related. I guess its cause of their inspiring yet infectious entrepreneurial spirit that makes me enjoy being around and connecting with people who take the plunge to follow their dream or passion.<br />
<br />
Kara is no small exception; in fact, she's the head designer/owner (and her own boss) of "<a href="http://www.karayoo.com/" target="_blank">Kara Yoo Jewelry</a>". And you know what? She's based right here, right now in the most beautiful and (in my opinion) greatest city, Vancouver.<br />

I happened to be surfing the web one night in search of local boutiques and businesses looking for that, "je ne said quoi" like critics at a runway show. When I stumbled upon the "Kara Yoo Jewelry" webpage, I was instantly attracted to the simple, elegant yet minimalistic jewelry designs and creative photography.<br />
<br />
As Kara puts it,<i> </i>"<i>Kara Yoo Jewelry is quite simple and understated, so it can be worn casually or dressed up</i>". Her must-have pieces are those she can wear everyday that go with almost anything.<br />
<br />
One of them are her <a href="http://www.karayoo.com/collections/earrings/products/triangle-studs" target="_blank">Triangle Studs</a>:<br />

When I asked her about what inspired her neat designs, she simply told me it was a lot of things. "<i>It's hard to specify as everything comes to me in a jumble. I love geometric and repeating patterns which can be found in a lot of architecture and every day life. </i>She's also inspired by other local designers and the natural environment, of course. </div>

Local jewelry designers and small business owners just don't appear out of thin air. Some know it from the start and some run down a winding path. Kara never outgrew the crafty stage and loved to make things for as long as she could remember. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
"<i>In high school my sister taught me how to make beaded jewelry, which I took up as a hobby throughout university. During my last year at UBC, I went to a conference and met the designers of Dannijo. I was extremely inspired, and knew that was exactly what I wanted to do!"</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After earning a commerce degree with a specialization in marketing and entrepreneurship at UBC, Kara attended VCC for the two-year Jewellery Art and Design Program. Shortly after, she launched her jewelry line and put those skills to good use. </div>

Hey everyone! This is my mini haul from AliExpress and I'm so excited to share with you some of the pieces I bought. I made my purchases from this <a href="http://www.aliexpress.com/store/616399" target="_blank">retailer</a> who offers free shipping worldwide on any $5 minimum order. The quality was pretty good considering the price and I can definitely say that this is one of the best deals I've ever gotten.<br />

With the Fall season approaching, I thought it would be high time to invest in some casual, loose white sweaters. These pieces are perfect on their own, matched with long necklaces and colourful scarves. Throw it under denim and leather jackets when it gets chilly out, just for that extra layer of warmth. Don't forget that you can pair em with those galaxy leggings you're yet to wear and those ankle studded booties you've been dying to show off. Below are my picks from some of favourite stores; they range in price, differ in style and are all affordably priced. Enjoy :)</div>

Here are just some of the things I'll still be using as we head into the warm but still sunny part of the Fall season. I'm a huge fan of tote bags and bought this flowery print one from UNIQLO for less than $10 CAD, a real steal. I'll also still have my classic aviator glasses from Forever 21 and my loose but colourful scarf from Ardene at hand for the sunny + breezy sort of weather. Oh, and I guess I just liked the way my L'Oreal bottle looked against the tote but seriously this detangler is a must-have and cuts down the minutes you'll spend combing out knots. </div>

<div style="margin: 0 auto; width: 600px;">
<div style="position: relative;">
Hi everyone, please accept my sincere apologies for being somewhat MIA from the blogosphere lately. I promise to make it up with this update and preview on the special surprises to come.<br />
<br />
So just to recap, I started blogging at the beginning of July and managed to publish many posts within a short timeframe. But at times I felt they were forced or just following the typical fashion blogger route. So for the past couple of weeks I've decided to take it slow and muse over a couple of blogging books like Dana Fox's "<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Blog-Wonderful-Dana-Fox/dp/1481988948" target="_blank">Blog Wonderful</a>" and the classic "<a href="http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/books/blog-inc-blogging-for-passion/9781452107202-item.html" target="_blank">Blog Inc</a>" by Joy Cho. I'm not an avid book reader, but I found those two books jam packed with useful tips and inspiration.<br />
<br />
Reading those two books made me realize the importance of having a short-term plan for the future of my blog. So in the next 2 months I will be showcasing some local businesses, great deals from my back-to-school haul and have a short series on affordable Fall boots. You might also want to watch out for some more of my giveaways!<br />
<br />
Well, speaking of giveaways, I meant to offer one once I reached my 50 followers target on Bloglovin. But since then, that number has been climbing and I reached 100 this past week! So to thank all of my loyal readers (+ to warmly welcome the b2school season) I have followed through with your requests and will be holding a second <b>Brandy Melville </b>giveaway! And if you've read any of my <a href="http://stylevancity.blogspot.ca/2013/07/brandy-melville-obsession-giveaway.html" target="_blank">previous posts</a>, you'd know I'm an obsessed Brandy Melville fan.<br />
<br />
So right below is a sneak preview of the giveaway prize; it's the Brandy Melville loose graphic "<a href="http://www.brandymelvilleusa.com/graphic-tops/raisa-stay-classy-tank.html" target="_blank">Stay Classy</a>" tank valued at around $21 CAD.<br />
<br />
Excited to enter?<br />
<br />
Then let me know by commenting below and I'll consider opening the giveaway in less than 24 hours :)<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
I don't know about you, but I really like polaroid cameras for some reason. Maybe its cause of their instant artsy gratification, small-size and wide array of colours. At times I think it serves more as an accessory rather than the simple point and shoot. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Personally, I own Fujifilm's <a href="http://www.fujifilm.ca/products/instax/instax_mini7s/" target="_blank">Instax Mini 7s</a>, a small compact polaroid that produces credit card sized souvenir photos. I bought mine on sale for around $70 CAD at London Drugs compared to the usual $100 at Urban Outfitters. While the camera itself wasn't a huge investment, the film costs nearly $1-2 a piece which seems like an overwhelming recurring expense. As a result, I don't use my polaroid as much as I'd like to and I feel pressured to get the perfect shot the first time round.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Nevertheless, I still enjoy taking it to parties, get-togethers or to my local park just to have substantial memories of some of life's precious moments. </div>

So I was in my local drugstore the other day checking out the make-up section in search of an affordable experimental eyeshadow palette. I'm not the biggest make-up girl but I just thought I'd add a little something colourful to my collection of fairly neutral and conservative shades. I found the Absolute palettes on a shelf in an array of sizes and colour combos, but finally settled with this one. </div>

The colours are super bright and a little shimmery (except black) and the palette comes with a small two-sided sponge brush. </div>

The colours are fairly pigmented even with just 3 - 4 strokes and no primer. It went on pretty smooth and it wasn't too hard to remove with a dash of eye make up remover. Overall, I'm pretty pleased with the product and would go buy another one when it runs out. </div>

I'm definitely going to have some fun with this and I plan on trying those crazy colourful tutorials when I have the time. </div>

It cost me $6.99 CAD, but I've seen it for way cheaper on other sites. Check it out <a href="http://www.elliebeauty.com/nicka-k-perfect-twelve-colors-eyeshadow/" target="_blank">here</a> for $1.99 on EllieBeauty.com. </div>

A night out with girlfriends at a classy steakhouse, just letting loose and revealing the inner foodie. Surely moments are shared, laughter erupts and a family stares at you and your friends oddly. A friend pulls out her polaroid to take a group selfie, which ends up on Facebook later that night.<br />
<br />
I guess that's what inspired this outfit of the week that's fun, girly and stylish. I've worn fairly similar outfits (colour-wise) and this combo is guaranteed to bring in compliments! Pair a <i>frilly top </i>like this one from Zara with a <i>chiffon skirt</i> and throw on some <i>bold heels </i>like these from Payless. Voila!<br />

For some reason, I just really love Juicy accessories. Maybe it's because of their super looped logos, royally golden crests and stand-out bright colours. I love their products because they're fashionably stylish yet aesthetically cute and add a touch of personality or flair to any outfit. But yes, I admit they're pricey at times but just wait for a sale (cause they have lots) and treat yourself to something nice!<br />
<br />
I personally own a few Juicy accessories and wherever I've taken them, I've always gotten lots of compliments. If you purchase any of the above be prepared for the storm of "Oh that's adorable!"'s or "Where'd you get that?"s from fellow fashion and non-fashionistas. <br />
<br />
Any Juicy fans? Any accessory must-haves? :) </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I was getting ready to head on a bus Downtown to go shopping on a laid back, dog day of summer. The sun was beaming and the weather was hot so I thought I'd go out to check on some sales. But on my way I just stopped in the middle of the sidewalk. I had no sense or urgency (for once) and my peripherals (yelling "just stop!") had finally won. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I told myself to appreciate what was around me and just take a moment or a minute to truly feel what its like to live in a beautiful city like Vancouver. When I'm in a hurry I don't pause but merely take for granted the clean air, the greenery and the space. So I thought I'd take a break today and instead post this as a reminder to just take a minute out of that 24 hour day of yours to pause, look and appreciate what's around you. </div>
