confidence...

let's be honest, it's tough to have confidence these days

i go to blogger everyday, everyday people and i look at all the blogs i follow (there's a lot, okay?) and i see all these beautiful confident woman

doing their outfit posts

or doing video tutorials or even videoing themselves dancing in a public bathroom!

and i cannot get enough!
those are just 2 of the MANY!


these woman are so confident and that makes them even more beautiful than they really are

this little blog world has opened my eyes to becoming more confident in a way i wasn't sure i could before

 being comfortable in our skin is worth the shot, being who we are and want to be is worth every minute of the journey to get there!

and i plan on getting there...

chances are if you stumble upon this post, i follow you...

so thank you for the inspiration ladies!

music....

this song

that is all <3

once upon a time...

so i am pretty enthralled by the once upon a time series on abc

seriously, you have to watch it. it brings all our old time fairy tales to life and we get a glimpse of real life with these unknowing characters. i love finding out a little bit more each week. 

so naturally when i was waiting in line at the bookstore to purchase a new series to finish in a week read and saw a book called "Fairest of All" with the queen's picture on the cover, i had to buy it!

literally read chapter one last night, and so far i feel for the queen. don't know how she turns wicked yet (there are 23 chapters) but she seems sweet and unknowing of her inevitable wickedness. 

i am hoping that this book gives me my own insight to the queen and i can start relaying that insight to the show. 

i mean i know all the back stories to my favorites like beauty and the beast, cinderella, snow white, and little red riding hood but why not the queen?

even though i'm not her biggest fan, i still think i should know her back story....

because doesn't everyone deserve a chance? 

loving life...

most recently i have been feeling like this...

i want to embrace this life to the absolute fullest

seriously making the best out of it all, no regrets, no take backs, only moving forward and embracing everything i do 

it sure does and i am taking the leap...

see you later comfort zone! i'll catch ya on the flip side!

love is where the action is, so do it. love everything, everyone all the time

spread the love in your life, you will be better for it :) 

finally...

it's the weekend! 

thank goodness

dear friday (after work), 

i have been waiting for you since sunday evening. it's been a long road but you have finally arrived. you mean the world to me. never leave, k? 

sincerely, me :) 

on another note, i am going to hit the mall with my sister like we are teenagers, and then i will come home and clean this hurricane of a room....

that's not mine, and mine's not that messy clean...wish me luck!

have a darling weekend beauties!

iphone...

i've had the white iphone now for almost a year

and i am just absolutely in love with it! 

sometimes i think "i'm not single, i have my iphone" (crazy lady, right here)

seriously, this phone is beautiful. i adore it in white but everyone knows you need a cover

i have had the same cover since the day i bought the phone, this boring purply pink cover..blah

so i have been shopping around and have found a few i just adore from soceity 6

aren't these just darling?!?

i mean, how is a girl to pick just one?!???!?

valentine's day...

happy valentine's day all you beauties out there 

i've never really paid particularly much attention to this day...

but people really enjoy it, so i spread the lurve :) 

i bought my girls (dance club) valentine's, nerd ones to be more exact

not these (although i do love a good nerd card)...

but more along the line of these...

they say cute things like "love the nerd in you"

which i do :) 

have a wonderful tuesday!
