Hello friends,

I've decided to temporarily stop posting on my blog. It's served as a wonderful gathering spot for various inspirations, but I'm losing it's sense of direction and one of my new year's resolutions was to spend less time on the computer. I don't know how long this break will be.

Did I tell you I've been writing for the Cheap Chica's blog? I write a DIY and street style round up post every week. Check it out here!

I'm gonna miss you all and I hope you have a lovely rest of the winter. Please email me if you have any questions at all.

Love,

Vanessa

p.s. If you really, really miss me, you can visit my tumblr blog here.

10 things

10 things that make me happy:

1. Silly Valentine's Day stuff. Yes, I spent $1.16 on a pen that lights up when you write with it.

2. The clean, fresh smell and cool grey skies right before it's about to rain.

3. Cashiers that are friendly.

4. Coming home late at night and cuddling with my sleeping boyfriend, who is too knocked out to even realize I'm there.

5. Drinks after a long day at work.

6. Bacon.

7. The sense of pride you get when you finish sewing something, and being able to say, "I made this!"

8. The 30 rock episode with James Franco. It was on over 3 weeks ago and I'm still laughing about it.

9. Anything and everything sparkly.

10. Getting out of the city every once in a while.

5 people to share the love with:

1. You are my fave

2. elephantine

3. pois rogue

4. Just fad

5. Little Doodles

Rules: List ten things that makes you happy and do one of them today. 
Then link to the person who tagged you and pass this little bit of love on to 10 others (I made up my own rules and only did five).
Play along, but only if you want. 

p.s. Thanks to woolgathering & miscellany for listing me!

My life in a nutshell.

I love this kitchen.

Dark, dreamy and elegant, from the new apartment complex 211 Elizabeth, via NYMag.

p.s. I'd post pictures but I know they're already all over the internet already so I'll just list them instead. Here are my favorite Golden Globe looks: Emily Blunt, Toni Collette, Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz, Carey Mulligan, Olivia Wilde. Which were your favorites?

mugs

If our apartment didn't have 1,000,000,000 coffee mugs already, I would certainly add this beauty to my cabinet.
