just because sometimes I am weird ... and sometimes (I would like to think of myself as lovely)
Thursday
and my heart pitter patters for polaroids
Can we just have a moment to appriciate... polaroids... { xox }
And than another moment to bask in the splendor of these poloroids. Its kind of like the artist caught all the moments of body language love... you know when he leans into her and she steps into him. His hands touch her hair, she smiles shyly...
I know I am a sickening romantic but... I have fallen for these photos...
Tuesday
To the moon and back
I've got the "getaway bug" and I wanna do it in style.
Im day-dreaming about pulling into Montana's giant driveway with that cute little yellow masterpiece up there.
The road would graciously greet those little round wheels with enthusiasm and say
"Oh Please Mr. Yellow Camper don't stop driving, you are just too adorable, we should be together... forever", as I roll down the windows of my car and sing...
"Oh silly road, the camper's mine and we are going to the moon, catch us if you can!"
who's with me?
Lets go get some!
In the Interest of World Peace, may I suggest:
spend your time breathlessly chasing after love. Be reckless. Be shameless, find yourself a fairy god mother and some magic beans and throw yourself into the hands of romance.
Love and be Loved, it is the greatest happiness there is.
Current Creative Crush...
Currently crushing on: Jill Greenburg,
her bad a** photography skills, her unique perspective and fantastic use of color.
like I have said before, add any amount of unnecessary color and you've got my heart racing. I am head over heels for her colorful underwater series.
Have I got a message for you...
First they brought you Hugh Grant and now they bring you this massive ship in a bottle { oh London how do I love thee }... Inside this massive jug is an 8 ft tall replica of the HMS Victory, by Yinka Shonibare. It Currently presides in Trafalgar Square where it will sail its beautiful batik print sails for the next eighteen months to commemorate the Battle of Trafalgar and the 50th anniversary of Nigerian independence.
Monday
Wallpaper... you are back in my life again...
Check out these scrumptious Wallpaper Silhouettes by Romp. If I had more rooms in my house, more wall space and a child this would be a must have on my list of frivolous spending! So adorable. That Ostrich = gotta have.
A little Nikki Catalano for your Morning
In my daily quests for inspiration I have fallen upon Australian artist, Nikki Catalano. Her soft colored creations remind me of Japanese anime with a quiet, child-like twist. I love all that beautiful texture that has my eyes happily dancing all over the colorful print. And those love birds...
{ can I take them home with me? }.
Friday
Its Friday!
And its Friday again... {Hooray}
what are you doing this lovely holiday weekend? Dave and I will be running a 10 mile race in Chestertown, MD, walking around the adorable little town to celebrate the "Chester River Tea Party" and than heading to Cambridge for some R&R... so looking forward to the enthusiastic workout and relaxing getaway...
I hope you all have a fabulous weekend and enjoy the beautiful weather that is heading our way!
See you on Monday my sweets {xox}
I love these stamped books from inspired goodness
Growing old together wedding invitations, so clever... I wonder if this would scar Dave away
Happy Birthday to me...!? Love these dresses
Found the perfect house warming gift
sometimes its just that kind of day
Happy Friday... {xox}
Its Friday and these paintings are great
I stumbled upon these endearing images of artist KMR and just feel in love. I love this little girl we keep seeing wondering around happening upon different circumstances, each painting uses the most brilliant color... wouldn't it be nice if we could just leap into each one and spend a moment swirling around in the beautifully colorful palette?
Thursday
What is Home to Me
Home?
Really seems more of a place in time, at this transitional point in my life.
I am heading into my late twenties with enthusiasm these days, looking forward to what is to come and working hard to build a foundation for a future I can be proud to call my own. I have moved three times in the past two years, I am practically a gypsy. I love packing and unpacking, redefining my living space and getting reacquainted with new shapes and sizes.
But there was a time, for 18 years, when I lived in one place with a wonderfully supportive and fun family { lucky me }. To me, that was home... and in my heart, home will always be those eighteen years that built the woman I am now and that I am yet to become...
Home to me is where I came from..its how I got here and its how I will get to where I am going...
My Foundations are what have given me my dreams of the future...
In the interest of Home and sharing ideas, here are two talented bloggers who can't be missed

Hello Readers. In case we haven't met. I'm Tara.
A twenty-something inspiration addict. I love illustration, design, cheesy jokes, jogging, excessive color ,coffee, and you. Even though we haven't met, you bring a great amount of joy to my life and I would just like to say it is a pleasure to read your comments and see that you have popped in.
Thank you for your visit. { xox }
wishing you a fabulously kick a** day
...cheers...
Something about a goldfish...
Something about the simplistic approach ChildlikeWisdom has taken here has my heart going pitter patter for these two adorable prints... its almost like they are so lonely on that page ... you must take them home with you and place them somewhere highly trafficked where you can walk by and wink at them... you know just to say " hey, how are you... I'm glad your here "
{ xox }
If I was leaving my house today...
Working in my imaginary closet today... (oh it is one of my favorite places to be) Picked out this pretty little green ensemble for myself. How pretty! With a pair of faded blue jeans and white v-neck tee shirt...
But who am I kidding, we all know its pajamas, coffee x5, and my glowing computer screen for me today...
A girl can dream can't she?
Dublin and their brilliant bikes
In September, Dublin released a "bike share program" called Dublinbikes. Dubliners can buy a year subscription to use the bikes placed all over the city for only 10 Euros a year. There are 40 stations, Pick it up here, return it there... so... is any one else thinking
"Genius"?
So far it has been a smashing success, only 2 out of 450 bikes have been either stolen or vandalized, those numbers look good to me.
And they chose such a pretty blue color too...
This system gets an A+ and a green eyed glance of jealousy from me...
