Celeb edition...


Kim Kardashian in perfect leather pants looking tougher than usual...


Kourtney Kardashian in nautical stripey perfection...


Monochromatic Jessica Alba...


Same hat, same pieces, different proportion. hat + scarf + buttondown - switch the sweater for a blazer - and the capri chinos for denim flares and its a completely different look...

Then, there's the Olsens...





I've been stealing this look left and right.

As if an all white couch is a possibility for us real people...




Opposing couches to create conversation areas is my new thing. Forget tvs. They're so 90's.



Big, cozy, knit blankets on beds without headboards.





Designer staircases...



I wish I was capable of this kind of symmetry...


Just perfection.

.. of Health & Beauty

Booked a vacation to Jamaica (mon) and have since noticed a renewed interest in my health aka I need to lose 10 lbs before the plane takes off.

There are a few different ways I get inspired to get healthy. Besides the obvious "look inside yourself" yadda yadda yadda.

1. Find images of celebrities who already resemble you in some way and see how they sculpt their bodies. I tend to begin and end with the redheaded/freckled community. What can I say? I feel a kinship.




Actually not the same person. left: Isla Fisher right: Amy Adams



2. Find images of people actually working out and gain inspiration from the fact that everyone has to work for it in one way or another.








3. If those two don't work then look for pictures of people in bikinis that your man will be looking at instead of you if you don't put down that brownie and back. away. slowly.
