line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">A sole and absolute ruler]</span></span><br /><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="white-space: pre;">T</span>he Monarch Butterfly instinctively migrates south every year to the Sierra Madre Mountains of Mexico. Traveling 50-100 miles a day, over land and sea. They are guided by the magnetic pull of the earth and the position of the sun, among other things. It is a miraculous phenomenon that the Monarch makes this journey. Especially since they’ve never taken this path, nor has a previous generation shown them the way. <i>It is just inside them.</i></span><br /><div><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">In life, I think there is an imaginary path that we all walk, that is just as instinctual. A straight point of reference from beginning to end. Mapped out for us in the stars. And it is our choice to either be pulled by it, or to run from it. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">When we run from it, life seems to be working against us. We experience heart ache. We experience suffering. Things just don’t click. Each step feels like a step backwards as you kick up dust in a different direction. Maybe you walk in circles. Maybe you zig then zag. Or maybe, you just stand still, unchanged. Unwilling to follow your instinct.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">So you keep running. You run from hard decisions; from people. You chase things that you think will serve you, that you <i>think</i> will make you happy. </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">And you run away from the Universe. Away from God. Away from <b>You</b>.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">In my life, I’ve lost myself. I've found myself - but <i>only</i> when I made the conscious decision to focus all of my energy to the things that truly serve my life's purpose. To the things that bring me light. And with love and gratitude, I let go of the things that did not. And suddenly, I found my wind current to soar.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The Universe works for you when you walk your truest path. It gives you exactly what you ask for. But the secret is to ask. To believe in the journey. And to walk forward with faith. That is the only way to live this life. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="white-space: pre;">Like the Monarch, our journey i</span>s instinctual, it is guided. It is a force that pulls you forward to the incredible dreams that lie ahead of you and just within reach. It is a soar over the ocean. It's sunshine through the trees. It's warmth from your neighbor. It's leaving a part of yourself for generations to come. It's a magnetic pull. A flutter of the wings. A divine path created <i>just</i> for <b>you</b>. </span></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00136290168313917618noreply@blogger.com235tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3455393365745508952.post-24249784866154214532015-10-15T22:28:00.000-07:002015-10-16T19:42:56.345-07:00Tell Me<div><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="300" mozallowfullscreen="" src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/142594120" webkitallowfullscreen="" width="545"></iframe><br /></div><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Forget obstacles, forget patterns.

Tell me what's necessary for your survival, what's personal, what's impossible, what's gigantic, what's beautiful, the time you had enough of everything not being enough, the last time you didn't just want satisfaction-you wanted to feel love. We'll travel down roads and watch quiet moon rises into navy black nights.

I can remember seeing it for the first time when I was a little girl. Sandwiched in the middle of the backseat of a Volvo, I drove with my family from AZ to CA. The sprawls of scorching hot desert that stretched for miles and miles felt endless. My eyes lazily chased the scenery as it flew past the car window. After so many, "<i>Are we there yet's</i>?" and so many stop-and-rewinds on my Sony Walkman of Ty Herndon's "<i>What Mattered Most"</i>, there was <i>finally</i> relief. The air had changed, and butterflies filled my belly.<br />We rolled the windows down. I could smell the ocean air. I could feel the salt on my skin. And I could see the most magical stretch of blue over the horizon. It was love at first sight.<br />After all this time, I can't help but return to this spot every year. To fill my soul just like it did that very first time at five years old. Like every requited love might feel - butterflies, relief, gravitational pulls and magic.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00136290168313917618noreply@blogger.com188tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3455393365745508952.post-5721807245192204482015-07-14T19:20:00.001-07:002015-07-14T19:20:49.365-07:00Black and White<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-39QQKwP90iU/VaIZkIj2UgI/AAAAAAAANz8/W_oZEqKvx5M/s1600/ROH_1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-39QQKwP90iU/VaIZkIj2UgI/AAAAAAAANz8/W_oZEqKvx5M/s1600/ROH_1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5a3Xu1yU5DY/VaLCQiBgcwI/AAAAAAAAN14/ecwDAPB6LSU/s1600/ROH_15.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5a3Xu1yU5DY/VaLCQiBgcwI/AAAAAAAAN14/ecwDAPB6LSU/s1600/ROH_15.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pl4I5lcqyMw/VaIZ333p06I/AAAAAAAAN0M/UXmH20MbjcI/s1600/ROH_3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pl4I5lcqyMw/VaIZ333p06I/AAAAAAAAN0M/UXmH20MbjcI/s1600/ROH_3.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-eS13BkyOYDE/VaIdS-wJRoI/AAAAAAAAN0Y/EwfaYIV030s/s1600/ROH_7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-eS13BkyOYDE/VaIdS-wJRoI/AAAAAAAAN0Y/EwfaYIV030s/s1600/ROH_7.jpg" /></a></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-H5GUHnhYuFo/VaIg8DIP-uI/AAAAAAAAN00/jIYqhEZdfoI/s1600/ROH_10.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-H5GUHnhYuFo/VaIg8DIP-uI/AAAAAAAAN00/jIYqhEZdfoI/s1600/ROH_10.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/skirts/alinemidi/PRDOVR~C4073/C4073.jsp" target="_blank">JCrew Ikat Tulip Skirt</a>; <a href="https://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/shirtsandtops/topsblouses/PRDOVR~C2227/C2227.jsp" target="_blank">JCrew Camisole</a>; <a href="https://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/accessories/hats/PRDOVR~23793/23793.jsp?color_name=NATURAL&styles=23793-NA6445" target="_blank">JCrew Panama Hat</a>; <a href="https://www.madewell.com/madewell_category/BAGS/totes/PRDOVR~B2545/B2545.jsp?color_name=true-black" target="_blank">Madewell Mini Transport Bag</a>; <a href="http://www.joesjeans.com/womens-shoes/1007/dept" target="_blank">Joes Jeans Shoes</a></td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>Lately, all I want to wear is black and white. There's something effortless in the color palette. It's timeless. Minimal. Sophisticated. It's an attitude. A coolness. And no matter how dressed up or dressed down you are, it just always works.

Know that the journey is often more beautiful than the landing…Do let the voyage sweetly unfold. There's no need to rush the destination as rushing these sort of things is so sadly overrated. Carry on. Be with this path. Explore your current space.

An open road with no direction. No destination other than the view in front of you. As I travel for miles and miles, the wide road grows narrower and changes from smooth pavement, into rough, red dirt. It leaves a dusty trail of memories behind, as I speed out of this town, faster than I can catch a glimpse of your eyes, in the rear view mirror. There's something dangerous when the signs disappear. Leaving nothing to guide me home. And I'm scared I don't want to go back…<br />There's something cautious in the wind. The way it pushes against the acceleration of my speed. As if it's saying, <i>slow down...enjoy this</i>. <i>This moment is <b>all</b> you have.</i> So I roll the windows down. I find a song. And I escape further and further away from you. <i>Or is it further towards you… </i>Either way, I drive on and seek the holiness of the sun. I chase the trails of disappearing rainbows around every corner. And I am reminded that nothing beautiful lasts forever. So in every attempt to fight against this, I pull off the side of the road. I sit on the top of my car. I get my feet dirty; my hair messy. I tilt my head towards the sky, and surrender to the raindrops that smoothly pour onto my dry, bare skin. Kissing it with goosebumps…cleansing my soul. And in this moment, although fleeting. Although beautiful. I find myself destroyed.

There were lots of challenging moments. Lots of moments where I felt the fire within myself burning out. But <i>sometimes</i>, the best part about challenges is the break through. It's like the Universe gives you this checkpoint, prompting you to look within yourself and figure out what you could improve upon. Because you know you could be better. You know you could do better. I made this list of affirmations - all the things I believe and want to believe. Who I am, who I will be. I am sharing it with you, as a means of putting it out into the Universe.

It's really the only two wardrobe essentials I need.</div><a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/create/extension/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.blogger.com%2Fblogger.g%3FblogID%3D3455393365745508952%23editor%2Ftarget%3Dpost%3BpostID%3D8416895395615044075&media=https%3A%2F%2Fimages-blogger-opensocial.googleusercontent.com%2Fgadgets%2Fproxy%3Furl%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252F1.bp.blogspot.com%252F-tsp9I1_YyXo%252FVRwggJ5_UvI%252FAAAAAAAANiQ%252FQ_3tt8Zomg8%252Fs1600%252FRunningonHappines_SX5.jpg%26container%3Dblogger%26gadget%3Da%26rewriteMime%3Dimage%252F*&xm=h&xv=sa1.35&description=" style="background-color: transparent;

A girl who’s heart was made of sunsets. She loved a boy, who’s eyes were made of moonlight. Together they stood on the edge of the world, overlooking the deep blue sea. As she gazed into his eyes, he spoke the words she longed to hear. “I belong to you,” he whispered, as the words carried through the wind, falling on the ears of clouds. He reached out and grabbed her hand, delicately knotting a string around her finger. It was a reminder that no matter the distance between them, he would always be tied to her. As he began revealing all the mysteries of his heart, the girl vanished into thin air. A violent gust of wind had carried her away, tumbling her through the sky. You see, the sky wanted to possess the girl like it possessed the sun, the moon and all of the stars - vowing to love her better, than the boy ever could.<span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">As the girl traveled through time and space, the wind that tore her from the earth, finally surrendered her body to a cloud, where she laid transformed. <i>Sparkling</i>. The rays of sunlight had woven pink into her hair, and kissed her skin golden, with the scent of heaven. There, she laid her head to find her dreams, and fell asleep. For even though her heart was made of sunsets, it belonged to a boy, who's eyes were setting.</span><br /><div><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The boy didn’t know what happened to the girl. As the night turned into day, and the day turned into a week, and a week into a month, and a month into a year - and a <i>year</i> into a century - the boy waited on the edge of that cliff for her return. He battled all the elements of the sky - from the scorching heat to the numbing cold. From torrential downpours of rain to passionate bursts of wind - he never faltered. Instead, he endured, no matter how weathered or weary he had become. His heart lived for her return...</span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">When the girl finally awoke, high amongst the clouds, she could see the boy. Waiting, where she was taken from him. She <i>screamed</i> his name! She waved her arms <i>frantically</i>, and jumped up and down. </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">But it was no use. The boy could not see her. The boy could not hear her... </span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">She became so tormented watching him from afar, noticing the moon rise and fall in his eyes night after night. The girl looked down at her hand, as a tear fell from her eye onto earth, and she remembered the string. Still tied. Still whole.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">She was growing restless, desperately wanting him to know that she watched over him, and that she loved him infinitely. So, every morning and every night, she collected all the particles of light and scattered them across the sky, painting him all the stories of her heart. </span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Day after day, the boy stood on the edge, watching the changing colors of the sky up above. He began to live for these moments of rises and sets. For, they spoke to him in ways that only he could understand. Each one entered his soul, bringing peace to fill his missing pieces. They were the passion, the fury, the beauty, and all the subtleties of the love the boy had come to know. Of the love he lived for. Of the love he thought he lost…</span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/1dNXx439Ri6vsdDMcXLtE6" target="_blank">"All Things All at Once" - Tired Pony</a></span></div></div></div><a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/create/extension/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.blogger.com%2Fblogger.g%3FblogID%3D3455393365745508952%23editor%2Ftarget%3Dpost%3BpostID%3D2010050388707215269%3BonPublishedMenu%3Dallposts%3BonClosedMenu%3Dallposts%3BpostNum%3D0%3Bsrc%3Dlink&media=https%3A%2F%2Fimages-blogger-opensocial.googleusercontent.com%2Fgadgets%2Fproxy%3Furl%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252F2.bp.blogspot.com%252F-4siriaf1JNo%252FVLHN7RRaBgI%252FAAAAAAAANeA%252FMO1Rrx6UkpY%252Fs1600%252FRunningonHappiness0.jpg%26container%3Dblogger%26gadget%3Da%26rewriteMime%3Dimage%252F*&xm=h&xv=sa1.35&description=" style="background-color: transparent;

The layers. The camel and black color combo. The leather trim detail. And <i>that </i>hat. Ready to put this outfit on repeat. PS. Can we <i>talk</i> about Dallas and how amazing it is?

Who would be your supporting characters? </span><br /><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Now, look at the cover. Don't judge it. And don't skip to the end {that's cheating}. Just take your time and flip through the worn pages. Get comfortable, because you will be here for a while.<br /><br />While reading <u>The Incredible, Beautiful and Sometimes Messy Story of You</u> (<i>that title is working and open for interpretation, of course</i>), maybe you will find marked highlights of magical and beautiful moments that moved you <i>so much,</i> you never want to forget them. Or <i>maybe</i>, you will come across the jagged remains of missing pages that have been ripped out from the times you wish you could forget. Maybe you will <b>l</b>augh <b>o</b>ut <b>l</b>oud hysterically. Or <i>maybe. </i>There will be pages that catch your inked tears...<br /><br />While reading your story, do you like who you are? Is it everything you dreamed it could be? </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div><div><div><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Let me say that again. <i>Is your story everything you dreamed it could be?</i><br /><br /><b>I hope you say yes.</b><br /><br />For a long time, I found myself saying <b>no</b>. I desperately began searching for answers. My heart ached and yearned for resolution. I knew an ordinary life would never interest me because I knew I couldn't settle on anything that I didn't touch with my whole heart.<br /><br />So, I picked up a pen. Started crossing things out, and began re-writing. I found new words to define who I am; <i>Confident. Strong. Creative. Smart. Enough….</i>I found new characters who began teaching me amazing things about life and allowing me to open up again. I revisited old characters because at times when you feel most alone, that's when you really learn how to be a friend. I closed chapters and opened new ones. And began doodling along with the words that now suddenly became poetic. I changed my story because I wanted to change my life. And decided that <b>no one</b> can write it but me. Not even my favorite authors.<i> </i>{<i>Ok</i> <i>Fine</i>. Nicholas Sparks. You can take a stab at it.} </span><br /><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">I don't know how my story will end. But I have faith that it will be filled with adventure, passion, vivacious life, and a love that move mountains. Right now, I'm just at peace reading what's on the page in front of me. I skim the words with my finger. I turn the page softly, and savor the story. Even in it's incompleteness, I am still whole. And I am still beginning. Even though my pages are weathered. Worn. Torn out. Rippled from catching inked tears. I still know, that the very best moments of my life are up ahead. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />And isn't that something to keep reading for?</span></div></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00136290168313917618noreply@blogger.com62tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3455393365745508952.post-87296567597222385002014-05-20T08:45:00.002-07:002014-09-12T22:19:44.218-07:00Happy Beautiful<div class="separator" style="clear: both;

It's nice to see you again. <i>Or,</i> see you for the first time. Either way, I like <i>exactly</i> where we are at. I have been away for a while. Keeping my heart and words locked up. Safe from judgement. Safe from others. Even safe from myself. <i> {How will I feel ever again....</i>} But with a new outlook on life, I am ready to finally let go and embrace what's ahead. You see, it's all about the journey, you and I. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />When I started my blog over three years ago, I realized something. Overthinking about happiness leads to unhappiness. I am <i>always</i> in my head. It is both a blessing and a curse how deeply I can feel things, and how much I can battle my own soul. But, time heals all wounds, and eventually, if you continue to push yourself forward, you don't have to search for it; happiness finds<i> you</i>.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />As I said, it's all about the journey.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />Today, I don't focus so much on happiness. It is always something I am striving for. Something I am <i>running</i> towards. But a little wisdom has taught me, to simply let it exist. I focus now, on creating <i>beauty</i>. Beauty in my words and in my actions. Beauty in my relationships with others, and my relationship with myself. Finding the beauty in ordinary moments. And even more important, making those ordinary moments beautiful. I want to make others happy, not just myself. So that's where this blog finds us today. You, me, happiness, life and beauty. I hope you will stick around as I wear a few cute clothes, but mostly my heart, along the way. I find it to be my most fearless accessory.</span></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00136290168313917618noreply@blogger.com135tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3455393365745508952.post-6116670551706558112013-11-11T08:26:00.001-07:002013-11-11T08:26:08.343-07:00Sweater Up<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/--OXD8WbXBOg/UoBLLNpZ1HI/AAAAAAAALo8/GoPPN75OLno/s1600/ROH4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/--OXD8WbXBOg/UoBLLNpZ1HI/AAAAAAAALo8/GoPPN75OLno/s1600/ROH4.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-FGW545084Yw/UoBLTI7VjtI/AAAAAAAALpM/IYtHY0MdUwU/s1600/ROH7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-FGW545084Yw/UoBLTI7VjtI/AAAAAAAALpM/IYtHY0MdUwU/s1600/ROH7.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qzVc3RPvS2s/UoBLpyWmWnI/AAAAAAAALpc/IjlRCDtN7x0/s1600/ROH9.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qzVc3RPvS2s/UoBLpyWmWnI/AAAAAAAALpc/IjlRCDtN7x0/s1600/ROH9.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-si9L7u1PKs8/UoBLPVHcfMI/AAAAAAAALpI/khlsQCRJDOA/s1600/ROH5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-si9L7u1PKs8/UoBLPVHcfMI/AAAAAAAALpI/khlsQCRJDOA/s1600/ROH5.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VnIa13KJt0o/UoBIYhx4c9I/AAAAAAAALo0/U7kYcRJn-r0/s1600/ROH1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VnIa13KJt0o/UoBIYhx4c9I/AAAAAAAALo0/U7kYcRJn-r0/s1600/ROH1.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://rstyle.me/~XwMt" target="_blank">JBrand Jeans</a>; <a href="http://rstyle.me/~XwPU" target="_blank">Echo Slouch Knit Cap</a>; <a href="http://rstyle.me/~XwRs" target="_blank">Target Booties</a>; JCrew Purse {<a href="http://rstyle.me/~XwYR" target="_blank">Loving this similar one</a>}; <a href="http://rstyle.me/~XwZJ" target="_blank">Michael Kors Watch</a>; <a href="http://www.baublebar.com/mixed-midi-rings.html" target="_blank">Bauble Bar Midi Ring</a>; <a href="http://www.shopsubtleluxury.com/collections/solid-scarves/products/crinkle-solid-scarf-in-hot-pink" target="_blank">Subtle Luxury Scarf</a> c/o;<a href="http://www.shopsubtleluxury.com/collections/tencel-cashmere/products/uneven-hem-crew-in-sand" target="_blank"> Subtle Luxury Sweater</a> c/o</td></tr></tbody></table>I have been living in this <a href="http://www.shopsubtleluxury.com/collections/tencel-cashmere/products/uneven-hem-crew-in-sand" target="_blank">Subtle Luxury</a> sweater and a couple of their scarves lately.

First ties. Then suspenders. I actually dreamt about suspenders. It was the darndest thing. Never a thought in my mind, until a little wardrobe dream fairy delicately whispered the idea upon me. '<i>Should I try them? Nooooo...they're for boys! </i>I thought. And that sweet, sweet fairy assured me that suspenders <i>are</i> in fact, awesome. Now, I can't recall if said fairy was a style maven or not. But who am I to argue? So, I awoke with my hair in a tussle, and I tell you, I jumped straight out of bed, knowing that suspenders were making their way onto skinny jeans and tulle skirts in the near future. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Now other than my love for ties and suspenders, I find myself wanting to wear men's </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">driving caps. I actually think men look<i> err, </i>dare I say,<i> terrible</i> in these things. {No 'fense dudes}. Honestly, I can't say I look much better. But either way, my wardrobe is becoming a little more masculine with each new accessory addition. And I like that juxtaposition.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00136290168313917618noreply@blogger.com75tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3455393365745508952.post-86492898177898716622013-10-31T07:00:00.000-07:002013-10-31T07:00:06.589-07:00It's Purrr-fect<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SjSvruKb0qA/UnCc8KgXi5I/AAAAAAAALks/UoOVJIV0qkI/s1600/ROH6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SjSvruKb0qA/UnCc8KgXi5I/AAAAAAAALks/UoOVJIV0qkI/s1600/ROH6.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YutOD6VFa34/UnCcTA2CISI/AAAAAAAALkc/cemEA13XscA/s1600/ROH8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Running on Happiness" border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YutOD6VFa34/UnCcTA2CISI/AAAAAAAALkc/cemEA13XscA/s1600/ROH8.jpg" title="Cat Sweater" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QxmArWrBrQ0/UnCdB-IV-4I/AAAAAAAALk0/2JIaJWU8Mgs/s1600/ROH5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QxmArWrBrQ0/UnCdB-IV-4I/AAAAAAAALk0/2JIaJWU8Mgs/s1600/ROH5.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://rstyle.me/~UZdN" target="_blank">Halogen Crewneck Sweater</a>; <a href="http://rstyle.me/~UZs7" target="_blank">Topshop Faux Leather Quilted Skirt</a>; <a href="http://rstyle.me/~UZqh" target="_blank"> JCrew Blouse</a>; <a href="http://rstyle.me/~UZqw" target="_blank">JCrew Factory Chambray Tie</a>; Shoes {<a href="http://rstyle.me/~UZoM" target="_blank">Loving these</a>}; <a href="http://rstyle.me/~f2bd" target="_blank">Mac Candy Yum Yum Lipstick</a></td></tr></tbody></table>I am currently obsessing over men's ties, cats, leather and graphic sweaters.
