Be Present

I learned about this amazing retreat from Kelly Rae. I wish I live closer enough to join this :(
Just by looking at the video 'Be Present' (song by Joshua Radin), I already start to embrace a more optimist outlook.

The world is so beautiful when it is filled with positive people and inspiring creative community. For more info about this retreat, you can click here.

"Brand New Day"

Some kind of magic...Happens late at night

When the moon smiles down at me...And bathes me in its light

I fell asleep beneath you...In the tall blades of grass

When I woke the world was new...I never had to ask

It's a brand new day...The sun is shining..It's a brand new day

For the first time in such a long long time...I know, I'll be ok

Most kind of stories...Save the best part for last

And most stories have a hero who finds

You make your past your past...Yeah you make your past your past

It's a brand new day...The sun is shining...It's a brand new day

For the first time in such a long long time...I know, I'll be ok

This cycle never ends...You gotta fall in order to mend

It's a brand new day...It's a brand new day

For the first time in such a long long time...I know, I'll be ok

My Style : Country Modern

It is a general knowledge that the kitchen is the heart of house/family. It is a place where we nourish our mind and body through foods, meals time, and family gatherings. That's why Daily decorator proposed this interesting idea that "kitchen style may reflect your personal decorating style". Here's my choice:

Little Pleasures in Life

Another day...Another random beauty...Another celebration for unexpected inspiration...
Let's take time to enjoy life's little pleasures...^-^
One of my daily pleasures is to find random interesting musics from Youtube. I can feel the positive and happy vibes from these two Japanese Music videos:


Wardrobe Heaven

Law of attraction works all the time! I'm still strugling with boxes of clothes right now, also still dealing with this statement "Should I keep this? But it doesn't fits me anymore....but I might come back to this size again soon".

However, i'm so determine to keep only what works for me at this very moment. I'll keep the not-so sure items on a box labelled "I'll see you next month" (what I mean is If I can live in peace without these items within one month, then I'll be completely firm I don't really need them)

Look what I found here (I'm so drooling right now). This particular one (Lagerlings, via desiretoinspire) is my absolute favourite!


I love the fact that it clearly divides her side and his side. I also love the head-to-toe organization system: you can see your bags collections, all tops and shirts being on the hangers, bottoms on the barely-visible-drawer, and then the shoes are neatly lined up. Although I prefer the wood tone to be in white plus a big full mirror (with a really nice frame in gold and white) behind the door of the closet. ^-^ So heavenly (a walk-in closet is every girl's dream!!)

Make do and Mend (illustration created by Claire/Clare Owen, found via designismine). This really reminds me to buy sewing machine (as soon as possible) and start learning how to sew from a-to-z ^-^.

Polyvore and Me

I found out Polyvore from my bestfriend. I had some great moments playing around in Polyvore (it used to be so addictive!), but then I stopped because I didn't have much time to create new sets.

Maybe I'll start to make new sets or mood boards again in Polyvore ^-^ (if I can...not so sure about that ^-^''). In the meantime, this is Audrey Hepburn and her clean & classy style, the most charming style icon ever!!

Audrey Hepburn Legacy

Oh So Dreamy!

Why everything from Japan are so eye candy?
Fashion, musics, movies, fabrics, crafts originated from Japan are total cuteness...Big applause for the KAWAI cultures ^-^

I came across this lovely picture via Loveology. It's a collection from haco .

I love the pastel color scheme, and not to forget the roses detail on her bag! Perfect outfit for a date to botanical garden ^-^.


I also found this really sweet video made by haco (click here). Great!! Now I have the outfit and the soundtrack for my imaginary first date with David Schwimmer, Mark Ruffalo, or Adam Sandler...^-^''

The One and Lovely

I always enjoy watching fragrance commercials. What I adore from them are their 'deep' concepts and the high levels of artistic effects (all the details, the settings, the music, the theatrical interpretation...so SUBLIME!! ^-^).

My current obsessions are the DolceGabbana series (The one, Rose The One, L'eau The One, featuring Scarlett Johansson, created by photographer Jean Baptiste Mondino) :

THE ONE
" I am looking, I don't know what I am looking for, maybe everything maybe nothing but I'll know when I find it, you know when it's the one... That's THE ONE. "

ROSE THE ONE
"It's funny what you remember: it's not the words or the music. Maybe it's a laugh, a taste. It's funny what you forget but you'll never forget THE ONE."

L'EAU THE ONE

"It seems simple, beauty is only outside but you might have to get what's inside to get to what's sweet, beauty that's in your mind...that's THE ONE"

I also love LOVELY by SJP (the song was Just To be in Love by James Marsden ):
