recipe for romance

For it was not into my ear you whispered,

but into my heart.     

          It was not my lips you kissed,

                          but my soul.

                                      -Judy Garland

Although I don't have it this year, I celebrate love.

I do in fact have:

A love of family.

A love of friends.

A love of pets.

A love of shopping.

A love of music.

A love of literature.

A love of a good night's sleep.

This Valentine's day, if I did have a "True Love",

it would consist of 

1 stack of love letters

a fistful of conversation hearts

2 "love" shoes, 1 left, 1 right

2 slices of red velvet heart shaped cake

1 Jedi Hipster

2 1/2 hour hot air balloon trip to top it all off

and Voila! It's good enough for me.

Romance with a hint of magic.

(because clearly I need magic to have a date with Hayden Christensen...)

happy valentines day!

you are what you love

Audrey Hepburn is my guru.
Jenny Lewis is my muse.
Twiggy is my inspiration.
Taza is my idol.
Zooey Deschanel is my fashion icon.
Florence is my iPod.
NYLON is my weakness.
Urban Outfitters is my home.
iTunes is my clubhouse.
Anthropologie is my 2nd home.

12PM love

it's only the beginning of the day and it's somewhat dark outside,

as if a storm is coming.

it's a really nice day.

woke up & got ready for the day

studied for nutrition test

slaughtered test with my nutrition knowledge

wasting time until work listening to jack johnson & of course, blogging.

but within my wasting time, i've found a precious little blog featuring only lovely weddings!!

i love weddings. a lot.

maybe it's because we had four weddings in our family all within five years. our cute family!

sometimes i worry myself. i'm too excited for the future and i have things all planned out like what my home will look like & what adventures imaginary hubby and i could go on, that i'm not as focused on right now. and how to get to the point where i can move my imaginary furniture into my imaginary victorian-anthropologie styled house with the gorgeous backyard.

but right now, it looks like a storm is coming outside and i'm basking my soul with photographs from weddings.
