I Got The Bike!

Remember those gorgeous Italian Abici bicycles I was obsessing over in this post in May?  Well, I ended up buying the dove grey one!  I'm loving it so so much, I just had to share the news.  I haven't yet settled on an appropriate name for 'her', but if you've got any suggestions I would love to hear them.

I'm laughing my face off at Karolina, who insisted we take some pictures!

Store Love: The Drake General

It's rare I'm in the Rosedale area of Toronto, but a visit to the dentist brought me near and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to pop into the local Drake Hotel General Store.  One of three locations, this Drake General is super cute and quaint (well, they all are actually).  Their Canadiana meets vintage meets industrial chic aesthetic is drop dead cool, and their love for Canadian designers and artists is even cooler.  They even had a little flag display proudly celebrating their local suppliers, including Biko!

Still Life in Motion: Animated Gifs

I realize animated gifs have been flying around the web lately (again), but I couldn't help myself here.  I'm really inspired by these two images in particular, so I just had to post them.  Also, I saved these so long ago and I forgot to file their source... forgive me.  Enjoy!

So beautiful and radiant.  Loving the subtle necklace movement too.

Who doesn't love a levitating woman?  Especially one from the good old days.
