honey, i found a reason to keep living

and you know the reason? dear, it's you.

this valentines day has been good to me. not the best it could be as i'm not with frank right now but, i still kept a smile on my face. i love my family, i love my friends,  i love my boyfriend, i love my dogs. i love a lot of things and if i get an extra day to prove it, of course i'm going to take it. ESPECIALLY when chocolates and flowers are involved ;)

here are some thing around the blogosphere putting a smile on my face today:

1) personal flower wrap? how adorable! i would LOVE this. it adds that personal flair!










































2) well, i ALWAYS love alexi from imboycrazy's posts...but TODAY'S post was so good! so real! and uplifting (for me). not being with frank on valentines day made me a little bit lonely, not gonna lie! but this post changed my mood a bit. i gave myself a personal mani and pedi with pink sparkles. i decided that i NEED to buy myself flowers next time i'm in the store. just because, right? because they make me HAPPY! i organized my closet! i had already called my mom because she sent me the CUTEST package ever. seriously, she's adorable! and i decided that i must go to a korean naked spa. sounds interesting and refreshing! sooooo, head on over there and maybe you'll feel as inspired as i did!

3) fell in love with red lipstick all over again! thanks to le fashion! i really need to find some GOOD red lipstick. any suggestions?























4) words can't even explain how much i love, want, and need this beautiful granny square blanket. my jaw literally dropped when i saw it. it is SO unbelievably beautiful and i can just imagine days of lounging around cuddled up in it with a cup of coffee and a good book. goodness, i am such a daydreamer...but really. what a beaut. everyone go tell becky how amazing she is!

5) i am lovvvvvin' reading about the backstage magic happening at the shows during nyfw!

6) a perfectly romantic song to finish off the day.




just a lil smooch from me to you :-*

hope you all had a lovely day!
love, at

    I love most of everything in this post!! I'm trying to get into wearing lipstick lately. Not just red.. I bought one pink and one orange the last time I make-up shopped!!

    I love a lot of things in this post too! I wore some dark pink lipstick yesterday for Valentine's day to impress the boyfriend. Was fun. I don't really know of a red lipstick that would be good. I would try something from Clinique if you like that brand.

    I am new to your blog and about to be your newest follower! xx Natalie
