Autumn's Warmth

Over the long weekend, I went back home to visit Ottawa and to see my family and friends for Thanksgiving. It's become kind of an unsaid Ottawa tradition for people to drive up to the Gatineau Park for a quick hike and to see the leaves. We're pretty lucky at this time of the year since the leaves have changed the perfect amount of color and the weather is still warm enough to not freeze yourself on the hike.

I had the chance to not only go once but twice this past weekend. The first weekend P and I drove up to the Champlain lookout to meet up with some friends in order to capture the beautiful sunset. Unfortunately for us, I improperly mapped out the route and wound up an hours distance away at Lac Phillippe instead. It was safe to say that P was not happy. We remedied that situation with some food afterwards.

I went again a couple days afterwards with my parents and brother to see the Luskville Falls. If you're interested in this hike, a fair warning that it's quite the challenging one. You'll literally be climbing over rocks and boulders for about 80% of the time. So make sure tha you're up for the challenge, because the view can be quite rewarding!

I've teamed up with Triple Duet to provide you guys with a fantastic offer to shop chloe + isabel's handmade jewelry and recieve a free pair of stud earrings! Designed in New York and produced by the same jewelers as Barney's and Neiman Marcus, you know that these pieces were made with the utmost of care.

I've chosen to add the Morning Tide East-West Pendant Necklace to my collection because of how delicate this piece is. If you know me, then you know how much I love my dainty jewelry. However, every once in awhile, I like to foray a little bit into the more statement pieces. And without having to make the huge leap into chunky necklaces, this piece adds just the right amount of extra sparkle without overwhelming my frame!

I'm also a sucker for sparkly things and anything marble, so hey why not right?

Triple Duet has offered my lovely readers who place orders over $75 USD, a free set of beautiful stud earrings (you know I love my studs, so I'll most likely be placing an order myself!). And if you're not a huge fan of studs, well why not get ahead on your Christmas shopping and save the pair of earrings for a lucky friend?

Unfortunately for my fellow Canadian's, Triple Duet's site can currently only take orders to the US. However, we have come up with a remedy to this! If you're interestd in ordering an item, simply send in an order to triple.duet@gmail.com and she'll be able to place the order on your behalf and have the items mailed to you! Trust me here, I'm a Canadian too ;).

If you're interested in picking up a piece for yourself (or even my necklace too), make sure to SHOP before October 22 to take advantage of this amazing offer of a free pair of earrings!
