Happy Mother's Day!
Hope that you are having a good one...
Whether you are celebrating with your family
perhaps remembering and honouring your precious memories of your Mom
or sharing this special day with other women...
Cheers to all of the great women in our lives who helped us.
Who mentored us in our careers...
inspired and cheered us on
and
continue to be beacons of light.
We were at the cottage last week...
the weather was great!
It was a mixed bag of activities and meals were quite simple.
Knitting, reading, beach combing, thrifting, visiting with friends.
I am surprised that we didn't even get in one game of crib!!
Found more sea glass and a vintage boat "block" at the thrift shop.
I like the distressed look of the block with its peeling paint...and a wee bit of rust.
Summer feels like it is on the way.
My trusty vintage Eddie Bauer sunhat...going into its 30th decade.
Found feathers add to the age and charm...
Hosted a Happy Hour on the Deck...
We sat outside until the winds picked up and practically blew us indoors!!
I bought a new sweater by the French Company Saint James...
it was on sale locally at W&J Wilson's.
I have a Breton striped top and a Black sweater by the same company.
The quality of their clothing is absolutely top notch.
Periwinkle Blue Cashmere Cardigan...
reminds me of the shutters in Provence.
Will be a workhorse in my wardrobe....
Paired well with my Akoya Pearls and a simple white Tee.
Wore it with my wide legged black rayon pants.
Black Vessi slip on shoes.

If you live in Victoria and shop in Oak Bay don't miss this gem of a shop...
We are so fortunate here in Victoria to have a variety of great second hand and consignment shops...so many great ones. I LOVE shopping in this shop!
My other faves are :

House of Savoy
Well I have my first cold since Covid hit the planet...
So I am feeling a wee bit foggy in the brain.
Will close for now as
I need to pop the kettle on and make some honey and lemon.
Hope that you are feeling good and keeping your spirits up.
Thank you for stopping by The Humble Bungalow Blog.
