Great Things...

Great things happen when men and mountains meet.

This is not done by jostling on the street.

- William Blake

I've been in Southwestern Pennsylvania recharging my batteries in the country the last few days.  I'm currently sitting in the airport waiting for my delayed flight back to New York where I will soon be jostling in the street again.  I'll be back with a bigger post once I am home and settled. 

What's in My Bag?

Even though I'm back from Paris, my bag still holds French treasures.  In addition to souvenirs and a few leftover Euros, my Reed Karkoff clutch is also home to the super chic new Alber Elbaz limited edition eye collection for Lancôme. I've always worn Lancôme mascara and now it has a cute new illustrated tube. The eye palettes have gorgeous shades on the inside too.  

If you want to be one of the first to access this new Alber Elbaz collection for Lancôme, you can sign up on the Lancôme website here. Only 200 units of each item during this exclusive VIP launch.  Get them before they're gone! 

"Beauty isn't a question of being the right age of having the right look, it comes down to attitude, individuality and character." - Alber Elbaz

Creativity

"Creativity is merely a plus name for regular activity. 

Any activity becomes creative when the doer 

cares about doing it right, or better." 

- John Updike 

I was busy the last few days preparing for a little photo shoot in my apartment today.  Now I feel like I need a break.  We'll be back tomorrow with our regularly scheduled programming.  But I didn't want to leave you with nothing so I thought I'd share of my desk and a quote that reminds me of blogging. Later skaters.

 

Bon Weekend

"Flowers... are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty 

outvalues all the utilities of the world."

March

It was one of those March days 

when the sun shines hot 

and the wind blows cold: 

when it is summer in the light, 

and winter in the shade.  

- Charles Dickens, Great Expectations

Weekend Inspiration

I was pinning images on Pinterest the other day and started to notice a pattern. 

Bon weekend!
