Current State :: Moving. Organizing. Cleaning. Moving is one of the most irritating processes one has to endure. I never realize how much stuff I have until I have to pack it all up and then unpack it. So much JUNK. I don't even know how it accumulates since I try to keep my space as minimal as possible yet, here we are. Tossing and donating like crazy. Meanwhile, my mom decided if I was moving my rooms needed to be completely painted before I did so. So, here I am, taping and painting my life away for the past couple days so today's post is pure inspiration. It's what I need right now to stay sane until everything is back in order again. Enjoy. Oh, and happy hump day (weekend come fast!).

Happy Monday....

 

Alright my darlings, I need your help!

So, here's the deal. I've been toying with the idea of starting a vlog (video blog) aside from my written blog. I get a lot of questions asking for style advice, beauty tips, blogging tips, etc. and I try my best to answer each and every question. However; some of the questions get a bit repetitive so I figured a better way to answer these questions is through a vlog so that you all can hear what others are asking as well. 

Not only will I want to answer questions, I'm thinking of making weekly videos reviewing products, giving tips and 'how-to's' and such. What does everyone think? I would really love feedback on this idea as well as QUESTIONS. I sort of want to start from scratch with the questions so please send some in be them questions you've already asked or new! They can be about absolutely WHATEVER, fashion/beauty related, general advice or personal, I'll try to answer them as best I can. You can write me any way you would like; leave a comment, email me, tweet me, whatever you fancy. I'm hoping to do my first video this week so hopefully I'll get a good amount of questions to start that. Also, I'm thinking of starting the questions in an anonymous manner but if you would like me to say who asked the question, just let me know.

Thanks for all the help and hopefully this will be the start of a new adventure for all of us. 

On a side note: I have been mentioning this for a while but I will be posting more personal style posts as well. I know that is definitely a question I get often and I have tried to remain somewhat anonymous in that sense, but fashion is what really drives this blog so I think personal posts are now becoming a necessity. So stay tuned for those as well.

Wedding: The Lane.

I am completely smitten over a new website I discovered called THE LANE. Dedicated to weddings and brides, this website was created to help women plan their perfect wedding that is completely unique to them and their style. Perfect for the not-so-typical brides and brides to be out there. Beautiful for inspirations and style guides for picking the perfect dress for your perfect day and everything else in between.

Instagram Crushes.

As much as Instagram feels like it's a cliché now, I can't get enough of it. I love choosing filters for my images (Valencia please) and having a mini album with me all the time. I also, have some favorite users. They seem to take Instagram to a whole 'nother level, to an art form per say. Take a look...

Today: Inspirational Monday.

Happy Monday my darlings,

I hope you all have a great start to your week! I know Thanksgiving is coming up already next week so I'm hoping to do a special post for that but before then, I have scheduled 2 exams, 2 papers, and 2 maybe 3 mental breakdowns before I leave for vacation this Thursday so I'm hoping for some sanity throughout these next couple days! Meanwhile, I've been updating my tumblr like crazy, in avoidance of actually studying (I know, procrastination at it's finest) but that's luck for you right? Also, it's probably not the smartest week to do so, but I've been thinking about starting my own Pinterest. All my friends rave about it and I visited it the other day and got some great ideas from it so I'm hoping to get that going in the next couple of days. What do you all think of Pinterest? Would you follow if I made one?

Well, I've been up for almost 21 hours now and my exam is in 3 hours so I need to go get another pot of coffee going. Oh college life....

Blog Crush: Yvonne Koné.

As a blogger, I get a lot of my inspiration from other bloggers. Magazines and websites are great but I really enjoy reading about other people's opinions because on a blog, the restrictions are way different than the opinion of a writer from Vogue. So, I thought I would start a new section called 'Blog Crush' where I show you blogs and bloggers that I love and inspire me.

Starting off, I would like to introduce to you accessories designer Yvonne Koné. She makes beautiful European handbags and shoes and takes incredible pictures to document her creative processes and her inspirations. Most of Koné's images are photographed by a friend of hers, Line Thit Klein. The photography work is so stunning. I went through her blog in a day, I couldn't take my eyes off of it! Take a look for yourself.
