ramblings.

Thursday, August 23, 2012


I'm one of those people that, the second I walk through the front door, stuff is flying everywhere and I'm basically a tornado. Bag/jacket/scarf/shoes/everything on the floor, hair up in a messy bun, I NEED WATER, eat a snack, sit on the floor or the counter for five minutes and contemplate the day... and the stuff I threw in all directions usually stays there for a hundred years. Worst habit. I should really change this - maybe consider putting everything in its place instead, so I'm not trying to find it later? What a concept. ;)

I tried/researched about a bazillion different headphones this summer until I found the right ones. (My cute teal ones bit the dust) Because I use them every day, they had. to be. perfect. Sheesh. I finally (finally!!!) found a pair I love. Took me long enough.

I've been printing out project moodboards and taping them on the wall next to my computer. Best idea ever. I love that I can look over while working and be instantly refreshed/inspired/motivated. Plus, my wall looks pretty now.

I saw this quote on Pinterest once and I think it's beautiful: "So start listening to the silent spaces in your thoughts and enjoy the wells of peace that exist within them."

Leave your ramblings below. Talk to me, guys.

the flower in my head
Excuse the quiet over here... I'll be back soon. In the meantime, there's a new playlist over on Inspired to Share. St. Vincent, MGMT, Birdy - what more could you ask for? Enjoy!

Some instagrams from the past week. Last weekend was spent in gardens and pretty places, taking photographs and exploring. This week was filled with busy days, lack of sleep, and jury duty that felt absolutely endless. I'm so happy the weekend is almost here!

1. New plants... how cool is that succulent in the middle?
2. My rad new necklace from Moorea Seal. Love her to pieces.
3. Photographing the most magical garden.
4. Ryan Lochte keeping me company during jury duty. Bless him and his cuteness.

p.s. I'm over on Kara's blog today, and you can listen to a new Music to Motivate here!
