i want to be here....

i love the fall.

Fall is my favorite season.

I love those sunny, blue skied days when the air feels so crisp.

I'm really looking forward to this fall.

Lemonade.

It wouldn't be a true summer without a lemonade stand...

only 50 cents!

how could you say no to these faces??

Total profits for 30 minutes: $3.00.

Inspired by Carrie Bradshaw.

This is my version of Carrie's love decor. I bought these wooden letters plain white and chose all different kinds of scrap book paper. It took me quite a while to finally choose these four patterns. Then I traced the letter on the paper and cut it out. Finally I glued the paper to the wooden letter, and voilà! I will hang this in my new apartment and every time I look at it, I will think of all the people in my life that I love :)

This was on Carrie's wall in her new, update apartment. She was searching for love in her life and this collage inspired me to make my own. Luckily, I'm not searching for love in my life but I wanted something to put up in my room that would remind me every day that I have people in my life that I love and that love me back (you know who you are)!

Carrie's fabulous new living room & bedroom.

Before and after of Carrie Bradshaw's bedroom. For those of you who don't know who Carrie is, she is the main character from one of my favorite shows, Sex & the City. In the S&tC movie, Carrie decides to remodel her apartment and I was inspired.

Montmartre, Paris.

It's so beautiful.

bistro chairs.

Does this look familiar?! Yes, it is almost identical to the bistro chairs we sat on in Paris, and I found them for only $5.00 at Target for my apartment in Boston! I love good finds. Now, every time I sit on this chair, I will always think of Paris, Rachel & Max :)

Max & me having dinner in Paris <3>

This is the most adorable restaurant that my friend Rachel suggested that Max (my boyfriend) and I go to when we were in Paris.

linens & decor.

i have this weird obsession with sheets & home decor.

I really enjoy this room.
