Vintage!

I love this way of decorating!

Take some frames and put mirrors in them or some cute pics with thin mats, thick mats or
just plain old frames and you have a wonderful focal point!

This was taken in the rain.

We just zoomed in to a old light in down town Nashville.
That was amazing!

I've always wanted one of those fans!

This is vintage all over.

 Recognize this kitchen?

Just my favorite tv show ever!

Friends,
love it!!!!!





Flowers in glass bottles are beautiful for any place.

You can even use old jelly jars!

  

I think this is the coolest thing ever!!!

You can use it as a bookshelf and a plant holder.

btw

I love orchids! There gorgeous!

Bubble gum is not exactly vintage but don't you think this pic is so cool!!! lol

But if you are looking for some sweet vintage clothes, look at,

Anthropology, Urban Outfitters, Free People, Charlotte Russe, these places are great!

Just remember... the more unique the better ;)

Well there you go.

 That's all I got.

A Movie Worth Your Time: The Help

Just saw "The Help" a couple days ago...incredible!

I've never seen a movie about slavery that was funny and serious at the same time!

 The way those maids had to go to work everyday and do whatever their boss told them to do and they couldn't defend themselves or explain.  They just had to stand there and take the demeaning way the white people, at the time, looked at them.  

They had to accept their life the way it was and no one could or would change it. 

It's not like they liked their lives, but at the same time they didn't know how to make it different or

what to do after it was different.

 Because of the color of their skin, they were treated like animals.
 If someone felt different, "they" were the wrong ones.

Like, if you thought someone was more important then most people thought or

if you felt more important then most people thought you were, it was unheard of.

Whether you were standing up for yourself or if you were standing up for someone else,

 there was no right answer.  

To think that there are still people that think this way today,
it's just not right.  No one should be treated like that.

If you haven't seen this movie you need to.
It will really make you think!

The main actress "Emma Stone" was excellent in this movie.
She brings a cool new flair to the screen!

I love Viola Davis and Octavia Spencer playing the maids!

True pros!!

Go and see "The Help!"

And remember..."You is kind, you is smart, you is important!!"

My Music

Turn on the radio, get on your ipod, flip out some old records, because it's time to jam!

Some songs make you smile like,
"Something That I Want" by Grace Potter
or pretty much any song that is about chick-fil-a.
While other songs can actually make you cry like,
"Whiskey Lullaby" by Alison Krauss.

And there is another kind of song that is just amazing,
like the song "Misery" by Maroon 5, it's jumpy and will always get your fingers snappin'...
...but...the song is called MISERY....
It's not the happiest song in the world ;)
It's interesting how the lyrics can be so different from the sound.
LOL

Some of my worst times in my life, music was definitely my best friend.
I love how music can help!
But I have found that Jesus can help even better than that...

My absolutely favorite band is Tenth Avenue North.
Their music is so upbeat and drenched with God's grace.
Even in the roughest times of my life when I listen to bands like
Tenth Avenue North, I realized how good life can be.
Just let it go!

Thanks Tenth Avenue North!

btw

 They have another cd out called "The Light Meets the Dark!"
Check it out!!!

Rock the Hat!

Some people might say that hats are out, no one wears them any more.

If a new fashion statement is what your looking for, a little shabby chic vintage look, 

always throw in a splash of your own style.

Add a cool new funky hat to your wardrobe and you're good to go!

There's a fashion statement for ya! 

This girl is wearing it all!

Rosie cheeks plus this hat equals adorable!

The tomboy look, put on some color with that cap........

..... pulling it off ;)  

You can't go wrong with pink!

And guys........

One feather on a brown hat and you get this.

Rockin it Bruno Mars style!

Classic winter look, amazing warmth and that hint of green makes the outfit!!

                                    A plain beret and a striped scarf, Christina Aguilera......she's got it ;)

Now this girl....what can I say....that's the ultimate statement!

That's for all you fashion lovers ;) ;) 

A Movie Worth Your Time: French Kiss

  One of the best movies
 that I have seen with Meg Ryan is

                                                                

  " French Kiss "

                                                 

Oh mon dieu! The crazy things these two went through together.

    Meg Ryan plays a young lady named Kate, who thought she knew exactly what her future was going to be. Kate had lost what she thought was perfect. She fought hopelessly to get back the love of her life. Until Kate realized that there was another world, another life, more beautiful then she could have ever imagined, and it just happened to sit beside her.                                    

                                       

It starts on a plane.

When she meets Luc.

From the outside they looked like totally different people, but if you look closely they were both yearning for something that they held dear to there hearts. Kate and Luc both needed another chance to love again.
                  

  This is one of the top movies that are truly good!

I will be posting about more movies later,

au revoir! ;)
