On this blog I hope to share my love of fashion, books, and more, but most importantly, my beloved Island. To start us off, I want a share a few of my favourite places with you all, to get you more familiar with the place I love so much, and which is such a huge part of who I am.
PEI is known for its beaches, and every one is beautiful in my opinion. The red sandy southern shores are perfect for beachcombing at low tide - and the best place for finding sea glass! The dunes and white sands of the north shore are perfect for lounging on, and revelling in the sound of crashing waves.
What's not to love?
Beanz is one of the most wonderful gems in Charlottetown - a fantastic little café in the downtown core that serves up a myriad of delicious treats, sandwiches and the best hot chocolate ever.
The Green Man - Vintage and Vinyl is relatively new, but one place I love to visit. There is an amazing mix of vintage pieces. One of my fave activities being trying on all the fun and fancy hats hanging throughout the shop.
The Charlottetown waterfront is a beautiful spot, especially in summer. It's true that it is a little touristy, but I love it all the same. Great for a wander, watching the boats go by, or enjoying some Cows Ice Cream (yum!)
I have always thought dirt in other places looked funny, but I guess it is because I grew up surrounded by red clay. It makes for such lovely drives through the countryside, and although the dirt roads are disappearing as they get paved, I always love driving along them. You never know what pretty spot you'll end up in.
Last but not least? The scenery. PEI is a beautiful place to live, and I never get tired of the rolling fields, stunning shorelines, or happy little farms perched along Island roads. Thousands of tourists come for just this reason every summer, and I can truly say that as someone who's lived here all my life that it never loses its charm.

I had no idea you were moving! Where exactly are you moving then? Good luck with everything: moving sure is a hassle!
Oh, I know who she is. That's my name-sake! I named myself Anne after her when I was a kid. My real name is Antonia but it was too complicated for kids so my mom let me pick a new one. It's since become Annie. :)
Cool pictures ! I love the tvshow Friends !
Kiss.

Ah ah, first time I see this Anne, but she looks quite cool :-)
I have never been to PEI but I feel obligated to visit each province at least once. Do people really make Anne of Green Gables jokes? That is so lame. How far West are you going?
You got great photos together... these are pretty cool
hope you have a good move!
How fortunate to have lived in such a magical place. I hope to visit one dya.
