closet office

i absolutely love this idea! a great way to transform an extra closet into a useful space.

note the mirror...ahhhh...such a great idea! why didn't i think of that?

this cake and this room seem so fresh to me.

so summery.

so perfect for a day like this (seattle is perfectly beautiful right now).

Quote of the Day

"To the outside world, we all grow old. But not to brothers and sisters. We know each other as we always were. We know each other's hearts. We share private family jokes. We remember family feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys. We live outside the touch of time."

messy bangs

i like jennifer lopez's bangs.

and how that style of bangs can also be glamorous too...like seen on heidi klum.

i'm sick

something is definitely going around. bodyaches, fever, sneezing, coughing...the whole works. defend yourselves with antibacterial gel!
i believe in tea therapy. let's see if it'll work this time around.

black accents

i never ever considered using black paint in my apartment. but the more i see it used in catalogs and blogs, the more i'm loving it.

i wonder if it would work as well in smaller spaces though.

i like your outfits, victoria

victoria beckham dresses so lady-like sometimes. she's almost got you fooled.

tuna bean salad

pillows: fluffy and beautiful

pillows can add so much to a room.
if i could, i would place a decorative pillow on every bed, chair, and couch that i own. but i am in no position to spend anything more than maybe $10 on a pillow. so, i've decided i want to learn how to sew my own pillows! i have a good idea of what i like, and if i stalk fabricate stores enough, i'm sure i'll be able to find some great deals on fabric!

frizzy, messy hair at the oscars?

i don't like the frizzy updos that jennifer lopez and sarah jessica parker were sporting at the oscars. they can afford the best stylist and makeup artists and they choose that hairstyle?

fly-aways are just never a good look.

but you never know, maybe it's the "new thing."

my favorite dress of the night was worn my miley cyrus...ahhhh....

i love everything about this picture...

1. the words on the dresser
2. the cake stand holding the bottles of lotion
3. the sloppy closet...it's more real and believable

quote of the day

"When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling.

Live your life so at the end, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying."

these pictures totally resemble my decor style. i'm not sure what to call it exactly though.

i am a fan of...

wet & wild natural lip balm.

yup, i love it.

a nice amount of color.

the right amount of moisture.

the perfect price (less than $2).

try it.

blue and white

for many people, today is the day they return back to work/school after a nice holiday vacation. these days are always painful. and it's monday. ugh.

below are pictures of some beautifully displayed blue and white porcelain china. they add such sophistication to a room. i love the look. i hope you love the below pictures too (and good luck with the rest of your monday).
