finding the music, ten (oh, sweet nothin')

If the guitar in this song cannot make you fall in love, then I'm sorry but you're going to be living a very lonely life. This song calms my mind, and makes me think of late night lonesome drives where the world felt vast and my mind and soul felt whole. This song also helps me know that the time is coming where I will feel that way again. This entire soul searching thing is a trip. Listing and enjoy. stay tuned, l.shane

dancing with myself...

Did I dance with myself and turn on my timer? Well, yes, yes I did. I got a tripod for Christmas and do you expect it to go to waste!? Exactly. I hope your New Years was wonderful. Personally, I finally got internet at my humble home, which means I have no excuses to not actually, you know, write and be productive. My inner roots are there and just begging to be released, so just you wait. Things are about to change, and in an amazing way. I hope your new year started off wonderfully, and I hope you expect amazing things to come.

stay tuned,

a new year is approaching...

I'm the queen of resolutions. The queen of using birthdays, and holidays as a chance to restart my world, but even though I'll write in circles about it, I've never really seen results. This year I'm taking all the power within myself to create my own results. I've come to a realization that was a long way coming, and that realization is this; I am a twenty-one year old woman and it is time to own up to who I am, and no longer let any excuse be good enough. This is my one and only life, and I will never be as young as I am in this moment in time. It is time to take everything into my own hands, to enjoy every moment and quit taking my life and my world for granted. It is time to live, and not just think about it.

I hope you all have a wonderful new years eve, and spend the time getting ridiculously silly while wearing sparkly dresses. I love you all. This new year is going to be kick ass.

honesty corner, going against all I believe in!

I spent my entire life thinking that only bitchy girls wear purses this way, but this purse is too cute and there is no other way to wear it. I'm admitting on going back on something I've believed my entire life. Ah, my confession of the day. Oh, yeah, I also wear glasses.

not naked days, she inside

outfit details; sweater c/o sheinside, skirt from Rue21, boots from GoJane, tights from Target

A little while ago I was lucky enough to win a very sweet giveaway from Laura who writes the wonderful blog Roots and Feathers. The sweater its self is a very generous gift from the wonderful (and affordable!) clothing site called SheInside. It is easily my new favorite sweater. Who wouldn't want something with Reindeer on it?! With all the snow that is falling on the ground, it's pretty fitting.

Thank you to Laura and SheInside!

Stay tuned,

chriiiistmas at home (and while housesitting!)

MERRY LATE CHRISTMAS! Sorry, I've just been working, housesitting, and running around in circles in hopes that my head will soon reattach to my body. Here's to hoping that happens soon!

missing persons,

Shit, I've been slacking. Give me a minute. Next week I'll be back to being annoyed, and back to being productive and inspired for Tea at Noon. It's just been a hectic week for my day job, and for my mentality. This growing into the woman I'm meant to be thing is not easy. Does it come easy for anyone?

See you next week,
l.shane

(HAVE A FANTASTIC WEEKEND!)
