Energy Healing & Link Up On the Edge #145
Have you ever been caught in a negative energy vortex? This just happened to me over the past few days. From maybe Friday until Tuesday. At first, you think it is just a bad day, but then the bad day turns into multiple consecutive bad days. Just a whole bunch of negative stuff piling on top of more negative stuff. Nothing tragic really. Things that are more just of the irritating nature which become super frustrating after more and more piles on. Suddenly you realize that you are the one attracting the negativity. Because this is the way the Law of Attraction works. One negative thing you can easily rise…

EvaTrends Green Giraffes, Polka Dots & Link Up On the Edge #143
If you read my post on Tuesday, you already know that I began my week in a state of exhaustion. And that state has only persisted. It’s like I simply cannot get one step ahead of the game this week. I am writing blog posts hours after I generally have them scheduled to publish. I have not joined any link parties all week. My email inbox is overloaded with unanswered messages. I have not slept well in days and I am running on about 4 hours of disrupted sleep a night. But sometimes, we have weeks like these. And next week is a new week and I will approach it…

Sparkle with Diamonds & Link Up On the Edge #142
I never was a girl who needed fancy things. Sure, I love clothes and shoes and jewelry and all things related to fashion, but I never much cared for spending piles of money on high end items. Show me a clearance rack and I’ll spend some bucks and bring home a load of pretty things. Pretty things that are pretty cheap. But every once in a while a girl needs to be spoiled. And one of the best ways for spoiling a girl is with diamonds, isn’t it? Now to be clear, I don’t need diamonds. I mean, no one really needs diamonds. But diamonds have this strange quality of…

About Blogging and Link Ups & Link Up On the Edge #141
I am reading a lot of buzz around the world of blogging about link ups and the new Inlinkz formatting and such. Lots of bloggers are having issues setting the link parties and the time at which they go live. Others are having problems adding their posts to the parties with the new formatting. So far, I have not had too much trouble creating the parties or joining them. My only issue currently is that I am being charged twice a month for the service. For those of you who do not host link parties, you may not be aware that there is a fee associated with hosting these parties.…

It’s All in the Details & Ageless Style Link Up
Can I just tell you how excited I was when Debbie of Fashion Fairy Dust reached out to me last month and invited me to join her and the other fabulous ladies of Ageless Style for March’s link up? I did a little happy dance…in my head mostly because I’m not much of a dancer. But I definitely smiled a great giant grin of elation and promptly accepted the invitation with enthusiasm. For those of you who may be unfamiliar with the Ageless Style Link Up, it is a monthly blogger collaboration series with a link up where nine of the most stylish and amazing bloggers come together to showcase…

Circus Vibes with Rosegal & Link Up On the Edge #43
Since my last two posts were a bit on the deeper side, I am sticking with a straight outfit post today. This is mostly because my brain gets wiped out when I get too intense. So on with it…how freaking adorable is this dress from Rosegal? *This is a sponsored post. As always, all thoughts and opinions are completely my own. If you have been following my blog, then you already know that I have a bit of an obsession lately with vintage-inspired dresses. You also know that I like to keep things on the edge. When I saw this bright mint colored dress with the big, bold stripes and…

The Reality of Fantasy
Fantasies. We all have them. At some point in our lives everyone engages in fantasy. I am going to be bold and even say that at some point on a daily basis most people have thoughts that would classify as fantasy. Even if for the briefest of moments. We fantasize about all sorts of things…from the benign and harmless to the crazy and potentially dangerous. We have dark fantasies, light fantasies, unrealistic ones, and ones that could very easily become reality. The subject of fantasy has been surfacing in discussions all around me recently. Usually when this happens, when a subject presents itself to me over and over again in…

To Dye or Not To Dye and #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #17
To dye or not to dye? That is my question. Do you or don’t you? I do. Oh, I do. And I have for most of my life. Here’s the scoop. I dyed my hair various shades of bright colors (green, red, blue, pink, purple) way back before it was cool. In fact, during my teenage years, I was labeled as a weirdo with my ever-changing rainbow locks. My genetically predetermined hair color was a boring shade of brown and I hated it. And as much as I hated it, I had an equal and opposite reaction in my love for dying my hair unnatural colors. Call it rebellion. Call…
