If you ask me about my day today

(Would you look at that cabinetry!) 

I will tell you that I've seen better,

but I will also tell you I've seen worse.

I am currently sitting at my desk

 (Love this vestibule)

enjoying some Phil Collins hold music 

 

(Marry me, double smeg kitchen)

and I felt inspired to tell you about a reoccurring dream I have.

Wouldn't you agree

that nothing is worse

than hearing about other people's dreams?

 (Dream Kitchen)

So consider yourself lucky,

as I am too tired to go into it.

(I am absolutely mad about that spread)

So have yourself some cake 

 And drink

I'm going to bed.

Alone Apart
. 

This is one of my very favorite songs ever to be sang, ever to be heard.

It takes me to another place and when I'm there, I don't want to leave.

(Forgive this terribly cheesy youtube video, it had the best sound quality. Just close your eyes, listen and let it take you to another place...Perhaps I'll meet you there.)

Because I highlighted my favorite designer at NYFW (the one and only ODLR),  it would only be fair to highlight my favorite during London Fashion Week. I had a few favorite designers, It was a hard thing for me to narrow down to only a few photos... Without further ado, I bring you my top picks for LFW

A note to the boy(s)

If any read my blog

No, this isn't a fashion blog... It's more of a slapdash blog with no real point other than to satisfy my need to talk a little bit about everything that I love... And I have to say, I so love fashion. I don't love it like I love interior design or architecture. I don't get the same feeling when I look at clothes like I get when I see a beautiful piece of furniture, but I can definitely appreciate fashion for what it adds to my life, the ability to help bring out my personality and show my own emblematic style.

If you are still with me, I appreciate your patience... I will soon get back to... Wait, what is it that I blog about that would draw the attention of boys? Oh, silly me... Nothing.

SO to the girl(s)

(Hi mom)

I will continue to bring you high fashion and cutting edge couture.  

I love a good joke... Not many make me laugh, but for some reason, this one did... My friend Shelby had it on her facebook.


A guy took his girlfriend to her first football game. After the game, he asked her how she liked it. "Oh I really liked it," she replied, "especially the tight pants and the big muscles, but I don't get why they were killing each other over 25 cents." Dumbfounded, her date asked,"What do you mean?" "Well, they flipped a coin, one team got it and then for the rest of the game, all they kept screaming was: 'Get the quarterback, get the quarterback!' I'm like, helloo... it's only 25 cents"

(I am in love with EVERYTHING)

I love this one the most

Love You, New York

I see you're still strong after all that's gone on

Life long we dedicate this song

Just a little something to show some respect

To the city that blends and mends and tests

Since 911 we're still livin'

And loving the life we've been given

Ain't nothing gonna take that away from us

Were looking pretty and gritty 'cause in the city we trust

Dear New York I know a lot has changed

2 towers down but you're still in the game

Home to many, rejecting know one

Accepting peoples of all places, wherever they're from

As of Late

Even though this version is more instrumental than I prefer, this is one of my favorite songs. (Austin City Limits version is awesome... However, I can't find it anymore.) Its a heartbreaking story... But the best stories always are.

Tomorrow's Church Dress

I don't know what the front looks like...

 But with a back like that, who cares?

(Ellie Saab 2011)

I am working right now,

As I have been most of the day.

Apart from my work, it's been a fine day.

It seems as though a cold front has decided to settle in and I have to say,

It's been lovely.

Last night even got a little chili, for my toes at least.

And I finally got to pull out my heating pad.

(Not that I really ever put it away) 

Oh, how I love heating pad weather.

  Forgive me for my pleasantries and weather talk ...

 I just don't  have any groundbreaking opinions to give tonight.

Surprised?

I thought so.

 I just wanted to post these lovely pictures

and see how you are doing?

I hope this post finds you well

 And if it doesn't,

 I hope looking at these pretty pictures will at least make you smile (temporarily).

 It sometimes works for me.
