Symphonies

This week I've been severely lacking on my blog updates, but tomorrow and this week I promise you some great posts of what I've been up to and what's been on my mind lately. Until then, here's something pretty to look at:

Big Jet Plane

I went to the dentist last week to find out that I had a few cavities that needed to be taken care of. I went again this morning to get my fillings done, and right now my mouth is kind of numb and Drew Barrymore-esque (no offense, Drew). I've definitely learned my lesson when it comes to flossing, and from now on, I'll be doing it every day. In other news...

It has been raining the past few days, which means more days spent inside, so to combat boredom and my brain from turning to mush, I downloaded a podcast aimed at learning to speak Dutch. I've only listened to a few podcasts so far, but it's actually a lot of fun. So I have a question for all of you out there reading my little blog: Goede dag, how gaat het met uw?

The Dog Days Are Over

I'm pretty terrible with the lack of blog posts this week, but I've been super busy with no internet to browse Chictopia or my new favourite website Lookbook. I recently applied to become a member and I just love how much outfit inspiration there is and how anyone from around the globe can contribute. 

Anyways, how crazy is it that summer is almost at an end? The past few days have been a mixture of overcast skies, cool winds and rain, which gets me pretty excited for autumn.

Before summer ends though, I really want to see Eat Pray Love with Julia Roberts. It seems like one of those movies that makes you want to travel to distant lands and breathe in a different way of life. I kind of want to read the book first though! Maybe I'll look out for it the next time I'm in Chapters.

Wordsworth's Ridge

Lately, I've been so fixated on the colour blue in bedrooms. I know it sounds random, but I was looking at a photograph of London's Tower Bridge, and eyed the grey and blue colour of it, which got me thinking about grey and blue colour pallets. .A nice robin's egg blue is such a calming and peaceful colour that looks beautiful in a bedroom.

Firsts

I bought my first Elle magazine yesterday. Normally I'm pretty opposed when it comes to high fashion magazines, but I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the magazine after purchasing it. I don't know what it was, probably MTV's portrayal of Elle with Erin and Olivia from The City. After looking through some of the faux fur pieces from Chanel's Fall 2010 collection, I was a bit surprised, but some pieces actually look quite elegant. I've only flipped through half of the magazine and I'm saving it because the rest of it looks impressive.
