I might officially be the beach swing tour guide in #Vancouver. Remember last year when I decided to walk out at this time of year in the middle of high tide? Brrr. ❄ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ One of my favorite things about Instagram is the sheer number of people I’ve met and become friends with - from out of towners where I really do act as a bit of a tour guide (hit me up if you’re ever in town) to local girls who were able to show me around when I first moved here. I’ve met fellow creatives, and found may have even gotten a few people into it myself.
There’s a chill in the air and for once, I’m actually prepared. @Norden_project makes sustainable, and really, really warm winter gear, all from recycled plastic bottles! How cool is that? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m actually especially excited for this jacket, not only for its creative use of plastics, but because this year, I’m flying out to see my family in time for their annual Christmas tree hunt (yes, we cut down our own Christmas tree, even in -40º weather). Not only will I be able to go, but I’ll actually be properly dressed for the weather and not looking like the Michelin man! That’s a rarity! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’ve partnered with @Norden_project so that all of you lovely instagrammers can get 10% off with the code ARIELLE! #NordenProject #WasteToStyle? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #passportcollective #shinyhappybloggers #femmetravel #wearetravelgirls #affordablestyle #girlslovetravel #iamtheeverygirl #gltlove #aboutalook #travelgirlsgo #explorecanada #abmstyle #sheisnotlost #discoverunder10k #travelmore (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5Tdgf-gkCy/?igshid=d1rusxi0av5m
Exciting news! I’ve partnered with @analuisany to give away a $75 gift voucher to a lucky winner! Not only are the pieces beautiful, but they’re sustainable and use recycled silver and gold (and of course the packaging is recyclable too)!
COVID-19 has been a wakeup call on so many fronts – from the environment, equality, the social safety net, mental health and addictions issues, and many more, so I’m so happy to see a brand working to do their part in addressing some of these issues.
Not only that, but jewelry has had such an influence in my life. I remember as a child, I would “claim” my mom’s jewelry for when she died (I was a morbid child, what can I say). But I loved sitting on the bed and trying everything on. My mom is still a jewelry collector, and has everything from fine gold to vintage pieces and unique costume jewelry and I’m happy to be starting my own collection with these pretty pieces. To enter: 1. Like this photo 2. Follow @thechicnarractive and @analuisany 3. Tag 3 or more friends in the comments – each friend you tag will count as an entry 4. The #giveaway will close August 6th.
Please read and accept the rules: https://bit.ly/GA-Rules. I’ll be contacting the winner via DM.
Happy birthday to me! If only I was celebrating with one of these milkshakes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ To be honest, it would be a bit of a sad day given the situation and need for social distancing these days. I’m eternally thankful I’m able to stay with my family for a little bit right now. Plus, I get homemade cheesecake and a woodshop this way. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ :@styleascension ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #dailyhivestyle #narcityvan #vancityhype #asseenonme #abmstyle #girlsjustwanttotravel #whowhatwearing #momentsofchic #realoutfitgram #dailyinspo #vancouver #streetstyleluxe #aboutalook #darlingweekend #flashesofdelight #wearitloveit #wandeleurspark #cybercorner #springstyle ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .
