Fun things and spaces

I am such a sucker for book shelves and raw wood.  Add a ladder to the book shelf and I'm in heaven!

Pink Skies--Part II

It was a lovely weekend at Cherry Blossom Fest on the National Mall. Saw lots of pretty cherry blossom trees, magnolia trees, and got lots of sunshine.  Overall a lovely girls day out. (And I was super excited to wear my new Free People felt hat!)

Pink Skies of Cherry Blossoms

This weekend starts Cherry Blossom Festival here in Washington D.C!  Nothing is more beautiful then biking along the Tidal Basin with scenery like this.

Elizabeth Taylor "Big Girls Need Big Diamonds"

An icon, movie star, and style icon.... Elizabeth Taylor you will be truly missed.

"Everything makes me nervous, except making films"

"I adore wearing gems, but not because they are mine. You can't possess radiance, you can only admire it."

"I don't pretend to be an ordinary housewife"

"I really don't remember much about Cleopatra. There were a lot of other things going on."

"I don't think President Bush is doing anything at all about Aids. In fact, I'm not sure he even knows how to spell Aids."

"I feel very adventurous. There are so many doors to be opened, and I'm not afraid to look behind them"

"I've only slept with men I've been married to. How many women can make that claim?"

Sweet Taste of India

My personal home style has always mimicked my bohemian personality.  I love Indian style with vibrant gypsy prints and colors mixed with vintage, raw, wood furniture.

Snap Shots

I have captured so many fun moments via my camera phone over the last few weekends and thought they would be fun to share. They are mini slices of my life :)
