"The Lid Trick": How Simple Actions Can Bring Us Back

Have you ever smelled a familiar scent, or come across a forgotten object in your house and have been transported back to a specific moment in time? Or maybe you were reminded of someone special in your life? I've recently had that moment while I was putting the lid on one of my Yankee Candle jars. (Bear with me, I know this sounds odd.) But, the act of putting that lid on brought me back a few years to my senior year of college and I instantly remembered the man who was with me the first time I learned about "the lid trick". Intrigued? Read on...

p.s- If you've never seen the 2004 movie,"Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", starring Jim Carey and Kate Winslet (amongst a list of other big names), I recommend you watch it! It's amazing and I'm sure Carey's character has a lot of "lid trick" moments in the film ^_^.

A-MAZ-ING!!

Have you seen Judith Hill on The Voice yet? Holy Crap, she's amazing! And that hair!! Love, love, love. I can't wait to see more of her! Take a listen to her version of "What a Girl Wants" by Christina Aguilera.

Angel Wings Photoshoot

I recently modeled in a photo shoot with photographer Miguel Rosario. He used a light trick to "draw" angel wings onto me. I couldn't begin to describe how he did this, so watch the video to see the behind the scenes footage!

HAPPY EASTER!!

I hope you are all having a very Happy Easter Sunday! (I am ^_^) My mom is so cute, she still gives us Easter baskets lol! This year however, she got creative and gave my sister and I purses instead of the traditional basket. I love that idea!! I equally love the neon-colored accessory trend. What do you think? Have an amazing Sunday!

Ok, so here we go again... This is my umpteenth attempt at creating a blog, and this time I'm finally going to devote the time to keeping it up. I'm sure it will become a random mash up of all the things I find interesting and beautiful in life... and if you find that you enjoy that, please follow and feel free to comment! But most of all... Enjoy!!
