I like the overall look & feel of this room. Besides one closet, we don't have tall furniture here which makes it very spacious.

Markee recreates the vintage pin-up style of Bettie Paige.
Bettie is a fashion inspiration for many people, especially in the Rockabilly, Retro, Goth and Vintage scene. She had a carefree attitude about herself, and embraced her curves; she made the female form something to be celebrated. She also made a lot of her own bathing suits and lingerie. This inspired a whole legion of crafty people to make clothes that fit them, instead of trying to follow what the trends told them. I've always loved Bettie because she wasn't afraid to be a bit different and stand out, she didn't feel the need to follow popular culture, instead she made her own.

We're experimenting with El Buho Mezcal tequila for this week's #CocktailHour and mixing up a classic Margarita, Tequila Moonrise and delicious white chocolate Tequila Truffles.
The best thing about living in Victoria is the laid back vibe. Being the Capitol city of BC, there is a enough infrastructure to support the amenities of living in a bigger centre, but being on an island makes it more isolated and makes it feel like a small town. Any time I hang out downtown, I run into people I know around almost every corner. Its a naturally beautiful place surrounded by ocean, and there is a thriving art community. There is so much to enjoy!
