Have a SWEET weekend!

Happiness is.......

A few things that make me deliriously happy.....


* The smell of rain in the desert.
* Waking up to puppy kisses.
* The first sip of a perfectly foamy latte.
* Driving with the windows rolled down and the music turned up.
* Wind on my face and sun on my shoulders.
* Diving into a crystal clear blue ocean.
* Staring down the white face of a mountain armed with nothing but a board and determination.
* The moment I realize I'm embarking on an incredible adventure.

Free People catalog in Paris and my daily french fix

As I am obsessed with all things Parisian right now, I was thrilled to come upon this post from Sarah Shirley's Style Diary, including images and a video shot of the new Free People (LOVE!) catalog.

Love for Lou and Lee

Tuesday just got cuter! Imagine my delight at coming across these beautiful, one-of-a-kind creations from Lou and Lee this morning. With the Coachella Valley Music Festival fast approaching these headbands will be perfect for dressing up my do while roughing it in the desert. Check out the twin sisters Etsy shop. Headbands and clips start at $14. Just browsing through will brighten up your day. I promise!

Puppies and Sunshine. Playing hooky in a '73 Scout

Well, what was I to do? I woke up, the sun was shining, and I had two very rambunctious Labradors who were chomping at the bit to get outside. The only solution was to load up the Scout and take to cruising the cliffs in Palos Verdes. (Wind in your hair and tunes included!)

Numero Uno

Welcome to the maiden voyage. Let's get this blog party started with an inspiration board of amazing photogs from Cheyenne Ellis. These, my dears, are the essence of Jane in her gypsy world. And the reason I started this bloggity blog. I wouldn't mind living in any one of these worlds. Here are a few gypsy rules to live by. Let's go.....

First off, if you've never hitch hiked before....do it.
Just be picky.......

Say, 'yes' to long walks in the woods....

Take caution when napping on your snowboard at the top of the mountain. Napping at the bottom is always fine.....

Never ever wear socks in the grass....or white for that matter...

Always be down for a girl's only adventure....

Always be down for a solo adventure....
