An Ode to Stripes
As we wrap up 2012, let's take a look back at some of my favourite looks involving stripes.
Even though the holiday wrap-up continues tomorrow (and for the rest of the week), I wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone who's taken the time to visit Petite Adventures - your encouragement and support really mean the world to me.
Happy New Year!

An Ode to Red
Happy Holidays!
For the next few days while I'm at home in Victoria enjoying snuggles with the two most stubborn but wonderful dogs in the world, I thought it would be fun and festive to wrap up the year by showcasing some of my favourite looks from the past 12 months.
Given the season, I thought there was no better place to start than by sharing a few of my favourite red looks.

Style Profile: Centre Street Style
Name: Mikki Fox
Age: 29
Occupation: Blogger/ Freelance Fashion
Entrepreneur/ Makeup Artist
Site: Centre Street Style
Location: Calgary, Alberta
When
and why did you start your site?
July 1st
2012. I started Centre Street
Style as a creative outlet when I moved to Calgary.
How
would you describe your site?
My site
is a lifestyle blog that covers fashion, entertaining, recipes and makeup.
Where
do you get your inspiration?
I get my
inspiration from numerous sources.
Travel, fashion archives, interior design, other blogs, art, the list
could go on forever.
Who
are your style/beauty icons?
Designer
icon is Christian Dior and the “New Look’. Style icon, cliché as it is, would be Audrey Hepburn tied
with Grace Kelly. I love the
classic femininity they exuded, and how put together they were. Viewing images of these two ladies
consistently results in something fabulous.
Describe
your personal style.
My
personal style is always evolving and changing and how I dress is usually based
on my mood that day. I always come
back to a classic and feminine approach though.
What
was the best style/beauty advice you were given?
Always wash your face before going to bed. And apply sunscreen everyday you’re in
the sun, especially as you get older.
Where
are your favourite places to shop?
In Calgary I love shopping at local boutique, Coco + Violet.
What
are your favourite trends for this season?
My favorite trends for this season are fur vests and
studded anything.
Style/Beauty
Pet Peeve?
When
women squish themselves into a size that’s too small. Muffin tops don’t look good on anyone.
What
do you never leave home without?
Cell
phone, wallet and lip gloss.
What
are your five essential items that you think every woman should own?
A great concealor to hide those
late nights out, a fabulous little black dress, a properly fitted blazer that
shows you mean business, a leather jacket that you will have forever, and an exquisite
pair of shoes.
Where
do you see yourself and your site in five years?
In five years I see my site maintaining the same or
heightened level of quality with creative partnerships and more editorial style
content. For myself, in five years
I hope for health and happiness and personal and professional satisfaction.
Tell
Petite Adventures readers something random about yourself.
I grew up playing ice hockey,
something that I do to this day.
It taught me about teamwork, hard work, winning and losing. It was, and still is, a great outlet
for stress and frustration.
