Time to get inspired...

Am I right, girls? I don't know about any of you, but I have been on a rollercoaster this summer. One minute I'm floating high on a social cloud and the next minute I am getting a "no thank you" email from a potential employer.

("No thanks to YOU!" is what I really want to say...) Luckily, I refrain ;)

Anyway, the blog has officially been on the backburner because I have yet to let myself get inspired. I think the lack of day-to-day interaction with the outside world has caused me to be closed-minded to all of the love, beauty and fun that surrounds me on a daily basis. I mean, how bad can things really be? Summer is my favorite time of the year, I can call a friend on a moment's notice and I have been able to see my family any old time I want. Now that, my friends, is inspiring. So with my change in attitude (thanks to lots of encouraging emails, calls and prayers) I have decided to post a few of my recent inspirations.



(Special thanks to Kate M. and Design*Sponge for a perfect interior representation of things that I love!)

My gals over at Life Giggles never cease to entertain (or inspire!) and they pointed me in the direction of this blog, that will now be a daily staple in my online endeavors.

Zoe's Kitchen in Dallas just so happens to have the best chicken salad sandwhich that I have ever tasted (sorry Kitchen Door) and when paired with an iced tea, it can make doves cry. It's the simple pleasures, right?

While we're at it, why don't we just throw these in? This movie, this dress, this summer nailpolish, and this baby.

And of course, what could be more inspiring than wedded bliss? Congratulations to the Schmid's!
