Mondays.

Don't you wish somedays you could wake up and look this effortlessly chic. (sans the cigarette) Everything else is just right. I wish I was starting out my week dressed like this.

Rainy Days

Wish I had my pair of these beauties already to brave the elements today. These would make my commute so much more pleasant and stylish. I'm not sure how well I could bike in them, I wouldn't want my gears to scratch the boots. I'll just have to have a couple of test rides to test it out.

Wouldn't it be great to look this chic on your morning commutes?

Not to mention how much drier I would be all day.

I'm obsessed...

with my own green drink creation. Several years ago, when Dr. Oz was on Oprah he shared his own green drink recipe and I've always wanted to try it. I love Naked Juices, but have never made any on my own. Also, since I don't have a juicer, I decided to use my blender and I have to say it is so much better than a juicer.

Everyone has there own version, but here is my recipe: 1 banana, 2-3 cups of raw spinach, 1 or 2 carrots, and a kiwi. I also add water to help break down all the fruits and veggies and a couple of ice cubes to chill it. I also mix up the fruits depending on what I have or feel like. I've used strawberries, blueberries, and sometimes pineapple. So far I have at least have a glass a day and I'm in love. I also like using a blender, because I don't lose all the fiber that you do when you use a juicer.

Aerial Dance and Trapeze

This is what I'll be doing later today and I'm super excited and a little nervous. I hope I'm strong enough. Next week is national dance week and several studios are offering free dance classes. I'm going to take an aerial class today and hopefully make it to an acroyoga class sometime next week. I've always wanted to try them out and what better way than a free class for national dance week.


Definitely check out your area to see what fun events they are offering up. If your not to sure about taking a class there are also usually a lot of performances as well.

Garage Living

This adorable litte house takes minimalism to the next level. I thought it was also appropriate considering it is earth week. After a recent divorce, she bought a house, rented it out and turned the garage into her this:

How adorable is this kitchen.

She has truly turned it into a cozy place to come home to and makes living in a garage actually appealing. I'm constantly trying to balance my love for beautiful things and not become materialistic. This garage house is the perfect reminder that we actually don't need so much stuff. For an interesting look at all the stuff we have check out The Story of Stuff.

What .................................. a disappointment !

So far this season of Project Runway has been a little lackluster and last night it was just more of the same. I personally was hoping to see more of Jay, but alas Mila took the final spot at Bryant Park.

Jay Nicolas Sario

Both collections are well constructed, but Jay proves to be more forward thinking with his designs. I do agree with the judges in that he could stand to edit some of his designs.

Mila Hermanovski

Throughout the entire season I have not been a fan of Mila's design aesthetic, it is not my taste. So of course I was disappointed last night when Jay was out. I also would have like to see more from Maya, but she decided to bow out early. This season has made me long for the days of Christian Siriano, so I will leave you with these images.

I'll take one of each please.
