Start off Fresh in September
September signals a time for a fresh start. Don’t get me wrong. I love summer, but September is an opportunity to begin again. School starts and with it there is an energy to get ‘back to business’ and to realign priorities. Recently on a shopping trip to Marshalls I found this lovely notebook. The mantra is simple and it has inspired me to write down all that I want to accomplish this fall. Needless to say my fall is starting off fabulously. 0

The Flowers of Paris
The Flowers of Paris dot the city and when I visited Paris this summer I was amazed to find blooming, colorful flowers on every walk. The pictures are so beautiful I simply had to share. Who can resist heart-shaped flowers. Perfect for any token of love or to decorate any wedding ceremony. Too many variations of pink to count in these stunning blooms. These healthy Hydrangea liven up any space in dramatic Purple and Green. The flowers of Paris really are magical. 0

The Doors of Paris
The Paris Adventure continues and I have to say it is hard to blog when all I want to do is to be out and about walking in the city. What amazes me the most are the beautiful doors in Paris. Where do these door lead and who lives in these homes? This door was found near the Hotel De Ville near the Île de la Cité on my morning walk to the Louvre. It’s wonderful to be inspired on every walk. 0

Crushing on my Favorite New Tote
My latest crush is a hip tote, perfect for shopping, running errands or for just showing off. This adorable “Wifey” tote is well… simply adorable from Ily Couture and is perfect for newlyweds or the gal who is already married. I want one, but I would have to get married first; so I am posting this for all my married friends out there. I also wonder if the Catherine, The Duchess of Cambridge has a tote like this? It really seems like something she would carry. 0

No-Tech Weekend
Sometime you just need a technology break so as the weather promises to be beautiful I have decided to move at a slower pace this weekend. Some things on my list this weekend is to read The Great Gatsby before the Baz Luhrmann film comes out which embraces the inner English Lit major in me, listen to the entire Justin Timberlake album and enjoy a green break at the National Arboretum for the Bonsai Festival. My goal is to stay away from technology this weekend and give my mind a break to enjoy the finer things. 0
