First day of spring?

The weather today is fabulous! The sun is bright and warm and there is no hint what so ever of remaining snow! Hoping that it will only keep on getting warmer and warmer for every day that goes by...spring is definatley sought after! I'm relishing over the thought of wearing dresses,light jackets and converse in the proximate future!
Last day of February today, last month of winter gone in a flash! Seriously! The last couple of weeks have just flown by...not that I'm complaining, one step closer to summer by every day that goes by!

Anyways, I potentially have a really fun project in the works with two friends of mine, a little something you might enjoy..maybe..haha!..you'll see;)

Talk to you later!

Out of my natural habitat

So today I'm doing something slightly different and unexpected...I'm at a big horse show...for 10 hours, haha! I'm in no way a horse girl but one of my friends from school happens to be and she asked me whether I wanted to come with her, and I thought: why not?
So we've been here since noon and have been walking around looking at ALL the equipment and riding gear, I'm not sure I'm the best person to ask when looking at riding pants or helmets...but I try :p
Slightly tired from having to get up early but thank god for caffeine!
I'm staying up here for the weekend since my family and I are visiting some other family (hint: there is a potential trip to ZARA in the works :p)

I'll try to do some more mobile blogging this weekend! Hope you're all fine! :D

Freezing




 For lack of better inspiration today due to the fact that I'm soo tired,  I thought I'd just show you some pictures I took on my phone yesterday evening when my friend and I went for a walk by the beach. We're enduring some serious winter weather right now, minus degrees, snow and ice everywhere...brrrrr, but at least its pretty, right? The sunset and the colours kind of made it worth freezing my legs off :D

Things I've been loving lately

1. Lana del Rey

Pics from Weheartit.com
Truly phenomenal artist, if you haven't checked out her music...YOU SHOULD! Now! Her debut song "Video Games" is rather known but there is a whole lot more (and please, let's disregard the whole SNL thing), her debut album "Born to Die" came out this week and it is a masterpiece. An interesting mix of melodies, intelligent lyrics quoting Nabokov amongst others.  If you do listen to her..what's your favourite song? Currently I'm leaning between National Anthem, Summertime Sadness and Dark Paradise.
Love.Love.Love.


2.  Vampire diaries



Amazing TV show, my obsession, my love. Spent last week re-watching all the episodes from the beginning and that made me realize how much I truly enjoy this show!



3. Simplicity

Fresh faced & minimal makeup, that's my beauty-moto lately. 



4.Movies I've recently watched



Tanner Hall and The Help, Both great movies. Tanner Hall has more of an "indie"/ "independent"feel to it.  The Help on the other hand is excepcionally touching and entertaining as well.


5. Excercise!



  I've been on a slight health kick for the past month, trying to get a move on everyday. I think I'll elaborate on that later since it's something that would require a full post :) I love getting a good work out every single day and I've come to prioritizing it a lot more during the last couple of weeks. 


6. Art


 I've been really into sketching lately, I'm one of those people who can't just sit still and watch a movie, I have to do several things at the same time, so I've been doing a little sketching, specifically working on portraits last week. These aren't great but they're quick ones I did during a movie or when watching a TV show :) (and yes, I'm totally watching Legally Blonde, if you're wondering...)


SO these are some things that have been keeping me occupied for the past month or so :)

New Beginnings

I haven't posted in a long time, ever since December rolled around my bloging hasn't been at it's best and through January I've only ever posted once. Thing is...December was hectic with Christmas and all and then January was all in all just a "there" month, nothing peculiar at all happened, no inspiration at all.

But I've decided to get a move on and actually become a bit more productive during February, hopefully the thought of spring being just around the corner will keep me jovial and inspired :)


SO this roughly means : NEW POSTS! :D
