Happy Birthday, Little Blog!

Today our blog turns one year old! It's hard to believe that this time last year we were writing our first post and planning out others for the weeks--and months--ahead (we were so damn organised back in the early days!) Although we've been pretty lax on the posting front these days, we still are committed to keeping this little blog up and running, so keep an eye out for some of the upcoming posts we're planning: some outfit posts, a few more Thursday Travels' and Shop Spotlights, and a brand-new series--Style for Your Shape. Thanks so much for reading, and here's to the next year!

Happy Birthday, Ali!!!!

Today is extra special because it's Ali's 24th birthday!!!! I had a tough time narrowing it down to only a few pictures as they are all just too cute! Ali is the one who does the writing for our blog - and for a reason! - so I'll keep it short. I just want to wish her the BEST birthday ever!!!! I hope you all enjoy these as much as I do and make sure to check out our mum's blog for more nostalgia!

{Adorable..even in tears!}

{Look at those expressive eyebrows!}

{I'm thinking she should go back to blonde but maybe I'm just biased!}

{Nautical chic}

{Elegant as usual!}

{Just chillin in her incredibly realistic library!}

{Perfect as Belle!}

{Two beautiful sisters!}

{Claud's grad last year!}

Happy Birthday, Mama!!!!

Today is a very special day...it's this beautiful lady's birthday!!! We love you so much Mum, and we hope you have an AMAZING day and a FANTASTIC year. YOU'RE THE BEST!!! xoxoxoxox

Happy Birthday, Claudia Louise Susan Sunniva!!!!!

For those of you who don't know, there's actually a third sister in the equation - her name is Claudia, and she's 18 today!!! Or actually, it may have been yesterday...seeing as she's in New Zealand right now. We hope she's having/has had an absolute blast, and we are counting down the days (25) til she's back home again so we can celebrate in style. And we're really looking forward to her joining us at Ali & Vic! She's super stylish, pretty, smart, funny, kind, and cool, so you're gonna love her presence on the blog. But we will need a new name...so suggestions are most welcome :-)

In honour of Claud's 18th birthday, here are 18 pics featuring the princess herself. Enjoy!

{Baby Coya - such a little angel!}

{She even helps with dishes!}

{And she loves her sisters...}

{...except maybe not here}

{She's good at being a rockstar with the cousins in Ireland...}

{...and she's great at being a triplet}

{She loves Christmas...}

{...and she's very kind to dogs}

{Even when life gets rough...}

{...she can always turn on that smile!}

{She's proud of her Albertan roots...}

{...and her Irish ones, too}

{She's the best person to go for coffee with...}

{...and she's glamorous as hell}

{She always looks fab at grads, be it Vicky's...}

{...or her own}

{And she knows how to rock a white dress - whether at her Holy Communion in 2002...}

{...or her grad, 10 years later}

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CLAUDIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We love you.

Happy Birthday, Vicky!!!!!

Today is a very special day...it's Vic's 20th birthday!!! Aaaand our blog also happens to be one month old today...so celebrations all around :-) I'm not gonna get toooo gushy but I just wanna say a big HAPPPPPPPPPPPYYYYYY BIRTHDAAAAAYYYYYYYYY to Victoria Alicia May Clare O'Neill, my partner in crime for the past 20 years.
