the great fall

It has been a rough week {and it is only Tuesday}. Sunday evening I fell in the rain while walking Thor & smacked my head on the concrete. I do not want to bore you with all the other details of this crappy week. There will be a lack of posts this week. I will return when I am happy & functioning again. Enjoy the week!

Beautiful {horses}

Looking at this image is relaxing. Horses are some of the most simple beautiful animals on our planet. Someday I will have a ranch with horses roaming around {day dreaming of this}. Love the styling & simplicity of this shot.

Take me away {on a Safari}

All the colors, layers, patterns & textures captured my eye in this image. I LOVE color! This shot is beautiful {I only wish I looked half as good when I throw on lots of color}. And I can not get enough of all the accessories...a ring on each finger oh yah!

peaches & cream {Kiss My Face}

While browsing the aisles of Mothers Market I discovered this Moisturizing Shave Cream. I thought I would give it a try & I sure am glad I did! The texture is a perfect blend of cream & silky smooth with out any foaming. The light peach sent is suttle yet refreshing. Looks like I will be sticking with this for awhile! I know want to try some of their other products.

Shoe LOVE {Zappos.com}

{found these random office shots online}

Do you shop at zappos.com? I do. Not only do they have an enormous selection of products but they have excellent customer service, a creative work environment, a positive vibe, a unique culture, employees that love their job & are one of the best 100 companies to work for. After reading the zappos.com 2009 culture book {I read it a while ago} I instantly loved the company & what they stand for & it turned me into one of their customers. There are so many aspects I found interesting about their company, the one that stuck out the most is the fact that each part of their office is decorated by a theme {so fun!}. Although I have a creative job I am surrounded by bland walls {no color, no artwork}, a boring work environment & people who are unhappy & lack passion for their job. I dream of decorating my day job office environment with inspiration posters, splashes of color, palm trees & large feathered birds. I thrive on inspiration and I believe you should surround yourself in an environment that keeps your senses & mind flowing & dreaming.

Did you know zappos.com has a sister site? 6pm.com filled with great priced merchandise! I just ordered a pair of boots I have been lusting over forever! I am so excited for them to arrive.



Weekend Fun {vintage shopping}

{image unknown}

Hope everyone enjoyed the weekend! It always seems to go way too fast & before I know it it's Sunday night {and I am already thinking about all the projects I need to accomplish this week}. I finally took some "me" time & went vintage shopping over the weekend. I scored two floral dresses {a mini & a bohemian long dress } & a great silk blouse that looked brand new! Love me some good finds especially when they fit well.  I love discovering new vintage & thrift shops... do you have any favorites?

Gluten Free {Talenti}

Do you love a sweet creamy treat? I do! I randomly came across Talenti gelato & sorbet at Ralphs {I never shopped at Ralphs until my office gave me a gift card} this is the only grocer that I know of that carries these yummy treats. I have enjoyed all the flavors I have tried; Raspberry, Double Dark Chocolate, Tahetian Vanilla... LOVE them all. Head to your local Ralphs or Ralphs Fresh Fare to try them out... you will not be disappointed.
