New Ride

What would Audrey Hepburn drive in 2011? A little Mini Cooper, that's what! Crossing my fingers & toes that this little green car comes home with me soon.

It's Finally Here.....

Stop reading and click BHLDN immediately. Amazingly gorgeous site.

February Book Club

An imperfectionist knows that getting something done is better than sitting back and waiting to do it perfectly.

Pause - /poz/

He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed. ~ Albert Einstein.

There comes a pause, for human strength will not endure to dance without cessation; and everyone must reach the point at length of absolute prostration. ~ Lewis Carroll

To pause means to take....

a brief suspension.
a temporary rest.
a time of reflection.
a momentary stop.
a little breather.


Life is not a dress rehearsal. Maybe it's not so much about knowing when to make decisions or take action as much as it is about knowing when to pause. When to be silent. When to wait. When to "hold".

The music has faded and the curtains drawn. It's time for an intermission. This young lady (that's me!) is off to find her dressing room. I am going to take the time to pause.

The only sound is the click-clacking of my heels echoing in the corridor. By the way, my dressing room is the one with a gold star on the door. You have one too.

Act II will surely be worth the wait.

To Have & Behold....

Hear, hear...all you ladies who love vintage. BHLDN is launching beautiful wedding things for women who like to get dolled up with a little personality. Gowns, party dresses, underpinnings, hair clips and gloves....mark your calendars girls, the site fully launches on Valentine's Day.

And that's not all....china, stationary, decor and other notions will be available in May 2011. How sweet it is!

The Well-Read Camera

What's this, you ask? A pinhole camera. I stumbled across Engrained on Etsy over the weekend and well, I am having a hard time thinking about much else. Erin makes these cameras from old cigar boxes and hardback books. I am sort of in love with old things (as if you couldn't tell!) and am loving this genuis idea. Also for sale at Anthropologie.

BAGGU!!

I received a special delivery today from BAGGU!!!

Loving the stripes, polka dots and elephant print. These bags are making me want to rush out to Central Market this afternoon for groceries.
