SWIPE to see real-life magic ✨ Robin and I took the ferry from Vancouver to Victoria for the weekend. First thing we did? Visit The Butchart Gardens' light show. πŸŽ„They have a 12 Days of Christmas theme - everything from a (faux) pear tree with a partridge to 12 drummer's drumming and it's super fun to see how they chose to bring each number to life. This area isn't one of the themes, it just looks really cool, doesn't it? I originally started writing this caption as this "Somebody call the Doctor, the Ood lost their balls!" but Robin didn't think any of ya'll would understand that reference. πŸ˜‚ Prove him wrong? #ButchartGardens #whimsysoultravels #christmastime 282 7
I'M ON A BOAT. Everybody look at me 'Cause I'm sailing on a boat. 🚒 😝I’m on the ferry to Victoria, like, right now!! I’m trying to be better about sharing more β€œinsta” photos and not worrying so much about making the perfect feed by rather sharing stuff I think looks cool. Like this ride from Vancouver to Victoria (stunning!!) The fog is lingering over all the little islands we passed, the seagulls are circling the rooftop deck and it’s so peaceful. 614 15

Small Business Series: Raising Tito

  • January 19, 2019
  • 2 minute read

We love small businesses over here at Whimsy Soul, especiallyΒ women-owned shops! Next up in our Small Business Series is Raising Tito, a small shop that specializes in uber cute apparel for women and babies. From whimsical “wildflower” onesies for the littles or cheeky “just peachy” tees for women, Raising Tito is a fantastic small business to find unique clothing.Β 

New Yorker Salina Giardino and her husband are the creative guru behind Raising Tito. Salina is a freelance character design and illustrator but has always been passionate about creating. Her husband is interested in printing and wanted to start his own business. In the summer of 2017 after their son Oliver (aka “Tito”) was born,Β Salina saw this as the perfect time to launch a new business that could allow her to stay at home with Oliver and avoid the high cost of hired childcare. ThisΒ MompenuerΒ says” When my son was born it seemed appropriate to come up with cute concepts and designs for baby bodysuits and toddler tees. We are continuing to create not only baby-wear, but also shirts for the mamas and shirts for women in general! We are excited for where the brand is going and look forward to watching it grow!”

Launching a company in New York City when you’re raising a newborn is not an easy feat. When asked to give advice to any women out there who is thinking of starting her own business:

“You can do this! It’s going to require your time, energy, and dedication, but it’s oh so worth it!”

In these photos, I’m wearing their women’s “Just Peachy” tee, which pairs so well with pretty much any kind of bottom, but especially with high waisted jeans. I don’t have children, but if I did, I would totally be over the moon to have a matching t-shirt and onesie with my daughter. They also sell toddler tees! Anything from Raising Tito would make an excellent gift for Mothers with littles in your life.

Shop Raising Tito online here and follow them on Instagram @raisingtito.

I think Buddy the Elf would lose his mind at this place. πŸ˜‚ Vancouver as a whole, really. BC seems to go ALL OUT for the holidays (I'm talking multiple different light shows and holiday festivals, a Christmas market, holiday teas and so much more!!) πŸŽ„β­οΈ I'm uber giddy to track down all the best Christmas cheer around BC this week (and of course singing loud for all to hear while I’m at it.) Maybe, if I'm lucky, I'll even find the World's Best Cup of Coffee somewhere or even rescue a  stranded Santa in Stanley Park! πŸ™ƒπŸŽ… Really, I'm just warning you now: get ready for Canadian Christmas OVERLOAD. πŸ˜ƒπŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„ #vancouver #VanDusenFOL #whimsysoultravels #veryvancouver 956 19
Under the desert sky ✨🏜 Our apartment has been SUPER cold the past few days & making me miss our week in Scottsdale last month. Especially the heat and all the towering saguaros, aren't they so fun?? 🌡🌡🌡 I've been writing up a storm over on whimsysoul.com and have a few new Scottsdale blog posts you should check out if you're planning a trip to Arizona. My favorite new post is my Scottsdale Bachelorette Guide! If you're a Type A planner like me and in charge of putting together a bach party for your lady next year, make sure to check my guide out and see why Scottsdale is like, the PERFECT place to party! πŸ‘°πŸ™Œ β € 950 18
You can take the girl out of Wisconsin but not the Wisconsin out of the girl. AKA we’ll always have a WAY too many coats in our closet, just in case! ❄️ πŸ§₯ #AbsolutPartner I’m teaming up with Planet Earth's Favorite Vodka @AbsolutVodka_US this holiday season to spread the word about their partnership with @onewarmcoat and how YOU can support them in warming 100,000 people in need this winter! Today is #givingtuesday so I challenge you to find an unused coat that can do so much more good donated than hanging out at the back of your closet. Look for donations bins in your city or learn more at absolut.com/holiday #partywithapurpose 329 6
Throwback to this time last year when @tinytwyla was smol and watching Christmas movies for the first time... and eating ornaments and trying to constantly knock down the tree for the first time. πŸ™ƒ πŸŽ„We came up with a new word today to describe here: Flooffy. Fluffy and goofy. πŸ˜»β € 1K 15
