“I must have flowers, always, and always.”
Have you ever wondered why flowers are used in almost every social event? Flowers enhance any environment by creating a warm and welcoming ambience. They make you feel lighter and more cheerful. Flowers not only ease inner troubles, they can improve a person’s ability to trust, and even uplift confidence and self-esteem.
So add some flowers to your home and office for some daily visual therapy.
A black and white color scheme will add a dose of style to any bathroom. And can we talk about the black hexagonal floor tiles...LOVE!
Me, right now. Trying to keep calm. Cause Monday.
Coffee is my best friend today.
Hope you have a nice day!

Never forget that ‘no’ is a complete sentence.
Just a little reminder that you decide what you want to say yes to. No further explanation needed. It’s okay to walk away from anything that gives you bad vibes. There is no need to explain or make sense of it. It’s your life, do what feels right to you.
Black is versatile and eternally fashionable.
Black makes any room feel more modern. It's a little easier to take this bold leap in the bedroom, but the living room requires a degree of commitment. In this particular living room the designer embraces black everywhere from seating to lamp shades.
While the beautiful rug in the designer space is beautiful, it might not be in everyone’s price range. Luckily I found a great alternative on Amazon.
This little terrarium is delicate in appearance. It’s a teeny tiny piece of art with its modern style and sleek design. perfect to create a great focal point indoors or out. I’m putting mine in the patio.
purchased this little fan for my desk at the day job. it’s been a lifesaver! very powerful but also very quiet. saved me during the heatwave a couple of weeks back. even with the AC on high, it was warm in our office. probably because the entire floor has floor-to-ceiling windows.
is it a vase or is it a decor item? how about both! i love these vases together and i love them separate. of course the black one is my favorite.
Baked donuts? Crazy talk right? Nope. They’re easy to make and delicious. I got this recipe from my bestie (thanks cm) who makes the best desserts.
Combine 1 1/2 cups of powdered sugar, strawberries and milk in a medium-size bowl and stir well. Add more powdered sugar until the mixture is a thick glaze. Then dip your baked donut tops into the glaze and let them cool until the glaze is set.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and spray your donut pan with nonstick spray. Then mix together eggs, buttermilk, oil, sugar, salt, baking powder and I like to add a little vanilla. Stir in flour and mix until smooth. Fill the donut pans up about 3/4 of the way and bake for 15 minutes. Waiting is the hardest part…
And finally, have a donut party…ENJOY!

Make a conscious choice to understand and use the first day of the week to motivate and inspire the rest of your week. Monday is a day to be grateful to have another week and another day of life.
Take this opportunity to start fresh, set some new goals, and get motivated. You got this!
Unexpected, modern, and a sophisticated look, black cabinets emphasize clean lines, sleek hardware, and beautiful wood grain. The dark color also adds a hefty dose of contrast to prevent a neutral space from looking plain and washed out.
TIP: If you're hesitant to take the plunge into all-black cabinets, start with a dose of black on an island or a select bank of cabinets.
Good morning sunshine! It’s Monday and it’s all good. My 🖤 brought me donuts and coffee in bed. I knew he was a keeper!
It’s so hard to not be scared to fail. I struggle with this fear and the anxiety that comes with it every day. It’s irrational I know but my brain tells me everyone is judging me. Every day I remind myself to do at least one thing that I’m afraid of. It could be as simple as wearing that outfit I love but people might think is not right for my body. F that...I love it so I’m wearing it.
Today is gonna be a great day.
Thinking about renovating our bathroom and doing something fun with the floors. It’s an opportunity to do something cool and unexpected.
These furry chevron tiles caught my eye. It’s a modern version of the classic black and white checker pattern, and it’s fantastic! Here are some of the other looks I’m considering. They’re all fabulous.
Came across these beauties during my afternoon walk. I love flowers. They make me happy. Make time to enjoy the little things. It makes such a difference. 🖤
Black and white bathrooms are never boring. And this elegant design is here to prove it. Black and white never fail to elevate the aesthetic of a space. It’s a color scheme that adds a dose of style to any bathroom. A definite classic. Add to that the sharp contrast of the herringbone pattern of black tiles over the vanity and you have a beautiful backdrop for the brass sconces and the mirrors.
I am currently obsessed with acrylic jewelry, specifically earrings. These are some of my favorites. I found these pieces on Amazon.com. These fashionable earrings make a statement and add a pop of color to my usual all black wardrobe.
No idea will work for every person, but different ideas can work for different people if you BELIEVE that you can make them work. You have to be willing to think differently and you have to be willing to experiment with new ideas. That's all you have to be: willing. And you'll discover a way to make those ideas work.
Looking to update the lighting around the house. And although I usually lean towards black and dark colors, when it comes to lighting, I like doing something with some sparkle. Take a look at my current wish list below.
