Dîner en Blanc

The Boo and I had tons of fun at Dîner en Blanc last night, a yearly outdoor dinner in Montreal based on the French event that’s been happening for the past 20 years. The rules were pretty strict: dress all in white from head to toe, and bring your own table, chairs and place settings, all to be white. The effect was lovely: 3,000 people all dining in white in a public square downtown. Dinner was followed by a dance party! Despite all of the organization required, I’m happy we went.

I’m so excited! One of my fave jewellery designers has teamed up with one of my favourite bloggers to create a special collection. Dannijo X Man Repeller = Mr. Dannijo. The collection features the typical flamboyant Dannijo style combined with quirky Leandra Medine-esque elements such as bows and mustaches.

A little preview of items that will be hitting IKEA stores in Canada in mid-August. I love the vintage look of these items, especially the picture frames!
