Something to Brighten A Rainy day

For all the strong, independent young adults out there:

“Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think" 

Christopher Robin to Pooh Bear

Its that time of the semester that life is crazy and everyone wants to go home for break, but maybe with a little motivation we can make the best of this next week and try to not have an aneurysm on the drive home. Breathe. Do Yoga. Try to De Stress...

Happy Monday

Happy Things

Top 5 of the Week 

So I've been reading my favorite blogs and one of them has been posting of their 5 things that have been making them smile for the day or week...In spirit of that I would like to post 5 things that I am happy about this evening

1. My beagle, Dodger

2. Get Him to The Greek (SEE THIS MOVIE!)

3. Anything with Cinnamon Sugar...This Cinnamon French Toast from Vegweb.com really hits the spot

Makes 2 servings

2 Tbsp. Flour ( I use Whole Wheat usually)

About 1 C. Soymilk (or any kind)

2 Slices Bread

Cinnamon! 

1 Tbsp. Sugar

Mix the flour and as much cinnamon as you would like in a bowl, slowly stir in soymilk. Dip bread and squish into mixture until soaked. Place greased pan or skillet on medium high heat, wait until bottom side is golden brown and flip and brown the other side. Top with maple syrup and bananas and Enjoy!

4. These Heels by Poetic License

5. Lazy Day French Braids

Absolutely perfect for the busy college gal lifestyle!

November Has Come

Leaves are falling.....

What I love about the turn of fall and the coming of the winter months  (except pumpkin spice lattes) is all the cute layers you get to pile on! Bundled up  allows for fun combinations of textures and colors which really creates a funky vibe. Wear something like this with the socks pushed down so they show over the moccasins and enjoy the scenery!

Happy Native American Heritage Month!

Pirate Radio

PIRATE RADIO

If you haven't seen Pirate Radio yet then shame on you. However I will give you the benefit of the doubt and give you the basic rundown. Pirate Radio is the story of the illegal radio stations that floated in the North Sea and broadcast to the United Kingdom in the 1960s. Besides the rocking music throughout the film, the style of the people on the boat and on shore are very 70s and very trendy. Since the 70s style is really no longer appropriate except for Halloween parties I reinterpreted it for you.

The little elements like lace, funky hats, opaque legs, saddle shoes, and ethnic/nature inspired jewelry brings the 70s to the 21st century and to campus. This kind of look, reminiscent of an era is great for everyday because it brings that little bit of personal style to your look. 

P.S. Remember to braid your hair! 

So go see Pirate Radio!

Check out the trailer here. 

One Day

Music Inspired:

ONE DAY by MATISYAHU

Let your inner hippie shine and bring peace to the world! This song makes me want to sing, dance and celebrate life, which is really feeling necessary at this point of the semester :( 

"We don't wanna fight no more"

Lyrics & Link to Video (So you can feel the beat)

sometimes I lay

under the moon

and thank God I'm breathing

then I pray

don't take me soon

cause I am here for a reason

sometimes in my tears I drown

but I never let it get me down

so when negativity surrounds

I know some day it'll all turn around

because

all my life I've been waiting for

I've been praying for

for the people to say

that we don't wanna fight no more

they'll be no more wars

and our children will play

one day x6

it's not about

win or lose

we all lose

when they feed on the souls of the innocent

blood drenched pavement

keep on moving though the waters stay raging

in this maze you can lose your way (your way)

it might drive you crazy but don't let it faze you no way (no way)

sometimes in my tears I drown

but I never let it get me down

so when negativity surrounds

I know some day it'll all turn around

because

all my life I've been waiting for

I've been praying for

for the people to say

that we don't wanna fight no more

they'll be no more wars

and our children will play

one day x6

one day this all will change

treat people the same

stop with the violence

down with the hate

one day we'll all be free

and proud to be

under the same sun

singing songs of freedom like

one day x4

all my life I've been waiting for

I've been praying for

for the people to say

that we don't wanna fight no more

they'll be no more wars

and our children will play

one day x6

ooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
