Making Choices

I like that picture and really like that quote, so why not put the two together.

I started school this week and it looks like it is going to be exciting and busy, but I am determined to be more organized this semester. Clean slate and better choices that is my equation for success this time around.

Hello Frances

When I first came across the images of Frances Bean Cobain that were captured by photographer Heidi Slimane I was awe struck. Sure she is grunge royalty but these images cast her in a spotlight that is all her own. The collection is gritty and romantic at the same time, and it is hard to believe that this girl is only 19. 

This image in particular reminded me of a Kurt Cobain poster I had hanging in my room all throughout highschool, haunting and beautiful. 

You can the entire collection here.

Fresh Color

I came across this image on Pinterest the other day and thought these colors looked fresh and crisp, don't you agree? 

I also am REALLY wanting to try a red lipstick (strictly chapstick around here), but am a big chicken. It maybe time to try something new and hey at least it is only lipstick and not a haircut.

Figuring It Out

It is hard to believe that in two short weeks this little ol' blog of mine will have been around for an entire year. It started out as a something else entirely and morphed into a place where I met great people, shared bits and pieces of my life,  and most of all as a place where I could slowly try and define my design style.

When I began this journey I told myself I would do it for 1 year and now that the deadline is slowly approaching I am not sure that I am ready to give it up. 

Confession time: I often feel like a terrible blogger. I do not post as much as I would like and it bothers me, honestly. There are days when I have thousands of ideas and just not enough time and then there are the other days where I  have all the time in the world and nothing seems to be working how I envisioned it. I don't want to post something that I don't love, and being a perfectionist often gets in my way more than it should. Also I am terrible about writing ideas down, Z keeps telling me that's why people have sketchbooks to keep track of those type of things for the days where staring blankly into space is about as creative as it gets, but that is a whole other issue entirely.  You my friends have stuck around through all this and I greatly appreciate it. I look forward to the process, to sharing ideas and getting feedback, and as an extremely private person it has been nice to open up and share my happy little family with you all. If I were to stop now I would miss it dearly.

So that's where I am - still trying to figure it out.

Kate the Great

The lovely Kate Moss photographed by Mario Testino (of course) for Vogue UK August 2011.

Sort of in love with those hats, yes?!?
