AFTER WEEKS of dismal weather, it has finally become summery and we've been spending all our days in the sun. Since we've been wearing jackets and trench coats during this time, now it's time to change up our wardrobes once again and switch to cooler things.

THIS INSTALMENT OF 10 IMAGES features the work of Julie Ann Marr, a Vancouver-based food afficionado who runs Kitchen Culinaire, offering cooking classes, wine tastings, culinary tours and private dinner parties. In 1997 Marr graduated from the professional culinary program at the Dubrulle Culinary Institute in Vancouver, after which she worked in restaurants around the city for a few years before coming to the realisation that she wasn't a good fit for the demanding life of a restaurant cook ...
NOW THAT WE are out of our trainers and tracksuit bottoms and back into actual clothing again, we've switched to living in blue jeans and haven't looked back. In fact, it's such a good alternative, we're looking to add denim shirts and blazers and dresses and skirts to the mix. Denim days may be here again, but that's because they've never really left ...
