I send you a thousand tiny kisses

Today is one of those very quiet, solitary days. We are moving closer to Winter, and the air is silent and chilled. It's a kind of lonely weather day. I don't feel lonely, I feel a sense of solitude which I enjoy. I feel kind of like the solitary ocean woman photograph - alone but exhilarated. Perhaps not quite exhilarated - but happy and content. Fortunately I happen to be one of those people who enjoy my own company. In fact I often prefer to be alone than with people.

Tomorrow is a holiday over here....yay!!! I haven't decided what to do yet, I 'll see what I feel like when I wake up....and that's what I like best, no plans to have to stick to.

I dream of romance edged in beauty

Today I decided to do a post of dreamy interiors that I've been collecting and wanted to share. In some way, each room appeals to me - I like the simplicity, and the touches of romantic vintage, and the restful but pretty colours. Each space is a place I could dream in and be at be peace, and each room is a reflection of the owners personality - to me, these are some of the important elements of the dream house I have in my mind. What would your dream house be like, and where would it be?

Have a happy weekend dear friends.

It's cold out there, but I'm warm inside

Today I'm feeling inspired by
pink, pink, pink, happy and bright.
Pink to banish away the blues
pink to wipe away black and
all the other colours and tones of sadness, fear or worry.

Today I'm inspired by love,
and by a cozy house
keeping the icy wind outside.

I hope this pink post will make you happy. I especially love the second picture, there's just something very compelling about it. It's one of my favourite images - unfortunately it's been saved on my computer for ages, and I can't remember where I found it.

I've drunk too much, said too much, can we go home now?

I don't know where this week has gone...scary. The weather has turned and Winter has arrived, it's really quite cold now....brrrrr. Here are some of the pictures and quotes inspiring me today.
