A small dose of Wisdom

Who does not adore the genius that is Dr Seuss!

So honest and sweet!! hope it inspires you today...

You are being brilliant when...

You turn that spare room into a closet... instead of an office. who needs an office?

You use feathers in a bottle and make a crazy strong bohemian-chic statement

You are not afraid to be different. Go BIG or go home.

yeaaa

You enjoy simple things in life.

You appreciate that herringbone floor and do everything in your power to showcase it.

You hang unexpected stuff in unexpected places. I am SO doing this witrh my Sherlock Holmes Silhouettes!

You show a little skin in a retro way.

Coachella 2012

Aaaaaaah the magic of Music Festivals............... this couldnt feel more like Summer of Love............ and I dig it. If you ask me, I am ready to chanel my inner hippie and move to Woodstock this summer. Hell yea.

We've been seeing some pretty good fashion at Coachella '12 along with some pretty nasty stuff man. Ok here are the note-worthy ones according to yours-truly.

First off, Lea. Which couldnt be more flippin' up-tight but at the same time is kinda cute.

Accesorize girl, accesorize.

Emma is a cutie cute- And also has this really cool retro vibe. She totally pulls off this look.

Fergie and Josh, who always manage to effortlessly look badass!

luvs the boots.

When did it become ok to match with your clothes to your boyfriend's being a day over 12? NEVER. Diane and Joshua, stop that.

Only a model can wear fringe all over her body and look hot. green with envy here

Oh Paris, each element is soooo cute and you totally look like got the Coachella memo about the inner goddess stuff and such... but somehow (in my humble opinion) not working as a whole on you... sorry babe.

Here comes Li-Lo looking like a 39 y/o who had a rough night.

I don't get the dress....

Geez...........

Vanessa surely must have attended the same party Lindsay was in.

cute hat though.

Here's what I'd be packing to Coachella 2012

Dear Small Apartment...

I am in love.

People, check it out. This is a gem of an apartment, where truly genious choices have been made in order to make the most of every square inch.

For starters, this bult in shelf unit not only serves as backdrop for that cozy sofa but it provides depth, then there is the wicker chair to add texture and organic fabulousness, the rug, wooden table and stools follow suit.

Kitchen and Dining are right there too, everything tied together by the fabulous and paneled 50's looking wood. It all flows and connects in such a natural way.... oh man....

Use all of it! all of the space, get creative. Use a lot of white.

Never underestimate the power of fuzzy rugs (or anything fuzzy) esp in the bedroom. Will cozy-up any bedroom in NO time.

What an adorbz bedroom for the little one, could be boy or girl, it's equally good. And what a terrific way to maximize space. Pretty damn brilliant if you ask me.

what a treat right???

Inspiration.....................

Music is what feelings sound like.

Oh, my darling readers, everyday I post something while I think of YOU smiling.

“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

Steve Jobs.

So, going back to my purpose in life, which evidently translates into this blog.... sometimes I am not in the best of spirits, sometimes I am downright cynical... sometimes I save on Shrink by talking to you!!

[I know, I know, I have no shame].

But I love you all the same.

Ha!
