New Beginnings


Oh this is how it starts, lightning strikes the heart
Goes off like a gun, brighter than the sun
It’s official, I’ve finally begun my foray into blogging after months, well years, of always saying that I should start.  Working in an art museum, I’m surrounded by masterpieces daily, but what I love most is the simple pleasures I find in all things creative and cultural (fine art, music, food, fashion, and travel) that ultimately reflect my personal aesthetic.

A native South Floridian, turned New Yorker, and transformed, yet again, to a Southern Belle in North Carolina, I have an unique, aesthetic flare (think bamboo furniture and Ikat prints, mixed with Indie concert posters and industrial metal accents, and finally touched off with shabby-chic, distressed pieces).  I know, its a lot to take in.  But these mixed styles create the spaces that I love, and, most importantly, remind me of the all the places I’ve called “home.”

So I hope you’ll enjoy this new beginning for me: a look into some of the simple trinkets & truths that inspire me daily.
