I dare you to say that FIVE times fast! *haha! Anyway, here are some of my favourite things that have really cheered me up this winter:

1) Malin + Goetz : I adore the brands’ simplistic packaging and all their wonderful scents. I am using the cilantro hair condition as well as the eucalyptus deodorant. Both smell fresh, light and spring-y.  As someone who is allergic to most deodorants, this one was such a wonderful buy! Plus it smells like mint. Mmmm. As for the conditioner, it has really kept my recently colored hair from getting too crispy and tangled in the winter wind. I purchased both at Jacob & Sebastian and I also left with a couple samples of the Malin + Goetz body wash and detox face mask, which I am eager to get the full sizes of. PRODUCT RAVE!

2) House of Harlow Double Starburst Necklace: I got this wonderful necklace for Christmas and have been wearing it every other day since. It is classic, yet shiny enough for nighttime and costume-y accessorizing! Anything Nicole Richie approved is fine by me, but this particular necklace is elegant and can be worn in multiple different ways (starbursts to the front, or one at the front and one at the back – as seen in the photo).

3) Downton Abbey: This award winning  PBS masterpiece classic- is the show I race home to watch. Season 1 (which is only 7 episodes) is available on Netflix and the perfect indulgence after a rough day at the office. The soothing British accents, beautiful costumes, and romance from both the story and the gorgeous scenery is a satisfying trip without using any vacation days.

4) Madewell Boots: I picked up these awesome boots when I was in NYC. I adore the thick leather and the heavy wooden heel. My friends complain that they can hear me from a mile away, but I don’t mind. The wooden 4′inch heel is sturdy and perfectly built for long walks.

5) Wilfred Poncho: This Artzia poncho is the best. I enviously eyed @CrystalGibson ‘s camel colored Wilfred poncho when she got it early in the fall and just had to get it! I picked mine up in black and it is just as I imagined, cozy, a bit witchy, and great with light jeans and bright long sleeve shirts. I’ve been wearing it around my condo for days.
Well, that’s this week’s Friday Fave!! What are your favourites this month?
