I saw these on because im addicted's blog and had to repost.  These videos are awesome and very inspiring.  

Enjoy!





"3 guys, 44 days, 11 countries, 18 flights, 38 thousand miles, an exploding volcano, 2 cameras and almost a terabyte of footage... all to turn 3 ambitious linear concepts based on movement, learning and food ....into 3 beautiful and hopefully compelling short films."

Missoni for Target

If you are friends with me on facebook in April I posted a article from Refinery 29 about Missoni for Target collaboration.  The line is said to hit stores September 13th and be available till October 22nd.  I already have my calendar marked and my moms too since I won't be in the states till that Friday.  They are said to have 400 plus items ranging from $2.99 to $599.99.  Most will retail for $40, the big ticket item for $599.99 is a Patio Set!  I am so excited I can hardly contain myself :)




AMAZING!

Arm Party


I love a good arm party!  Join in the fun Bloggers Do It Better Arm Party Challenge!  It's my first bdib and couldn't be more excited!  I usually don't have any rhyme or reason to my mix.  I will mix gold with silver, inexpensive pieces with expensive pieces and I just have fun with it.  It is a party right?!

Anyone for a Staycation

This weekend we stayed at the Hempel hotel near Hyde Park and Notting Hill.  The hotel was very zen like and it was a nice change for the weekend.  Saturday I explored Notting Hill and spent most of my day in Hyde Park.  It was beautiful out and a perfect day for the park.  I went to a market got a baguette, cheese and maybe took a bottle wine from the mini fridge and people watched.  It was nice taking a holiday in your our home city and enjoying the things we usually rush past because we don't have time to explore.  I would definitely recommend a staycation.  

The last scene of Notting Hill was filmed in Hempel's Zen Garden.  







I'll post more pics of Hyde Park later...
