DecayedGreatHallI have a thing for decayed buildings and spaces.  They are romantic and beautiful in a twisted type of way.  Today it started out sunny and bright but turned rainy and gray as my day became busier and filled with things I needed to do and yet stress me out.   No matter how nice laundry and sweeping my apartment are once done and how gross it is when they are not, they never seem seem like a good use of my time.   So now as I sit at my desk, listening to the rain and preparing to work into the late hours of the night, I feel that beautiful decay is what is making me the most inspired.

On a less dismal note...yesterday ended up being such a lovely Sunday, all the plans I had were wonderful and I got to end the day doing two of my favorite things...making jewelry for the upcoming bridal line and writing the weekly blog post with Adam.  Maybe there's hope for my least favorite day yet!

RuinsArchI tend to obsess.  Not in an I should seek therapy way, just in the way that when I like something, I get really into it.  My obsessions of the moment include:

  • photos of ruins, roads to nowhere and trees houses
  • fashion editorials featuring dresses
  • apples and peanut butter for a snack
  • jelly belly jelly beans (only occasionally though, I swear!)
  • Inc magazine
  • the concept of victoria's secret annual diamond bra
  • marketing podcasts

The last on the list is getting a bit out of hand...but hey, at least I'm learning with that one!  What have you obsessed over recently?  C'mon, I know I'm not the only one!

The Trunk Show is all set up for tomorrow and I have to say, it looks great!  I had shown Paige (Summer Intern) a few inspiring photos and she helped me put together a great display.  Can't wait to show it off!!
