appreciation of Art

The older I get the more I appreciate art and the mind behind it. 







"fumi nakamura" is amazing. If I had the $ you would see one of these in my house. 








this is the new it girl "carmen" I think she is beautiful - what makes me sad is that models used to sell clothes not sex... 


I love you bear. period.

Being Bold

Oh man these pictures inspired me so much. I was on "this" website way to long! 

I think I am going to paint my living room trim light cloudy Blue. so peaceful



I love that storage and those chairs and the wallpaper. I also want that picture



nice comfortable sitting room. chairs are one of weaknesses ladies :)



I want this



why can't I have the guts to do wallpaper?



I'm going to paint my oven knobs red! and then steal that hanging light



I love how the patterns and colors look great together. pillows, lampshades, sheets. all of it!



again...wallpaper



okay so this is color I've been trying to find for my walls. a little lighter peach would be perfecto! love all those pillows



placement of frames 



I really like the bold choice of the arch wall painting...oh and the pillows
 good night

mix and match living

When different patterns and color schemes end up matching and looking great. here are some great examples. 



i may need to get a Green pillow



 great wall color and chairs and pillows



how do they make that chair with 2 different greens work? that glass table rocks



brown,black,turquoise,pink....and yes



I love how this set up is behind the couch



I have always loved wall paper



okay this works



now I really dig everything about this room. cow rug. pillows. letters. picture placement. 


 I love black walls but I'm too scared to take that risk. it's tempting though when I see these:



black



feels


so


clean.

all these black rooms blow me away.

Have fun moving your living room furniture around now :)

Style:it's a way

Let's try a different approach ladies and gentlemen. First off stop showing so much skin ladies, leave it for the warrior so he can discover for you, because if you find the right one he will do it. Guys pull up your pants.

wool stuffed mattress



that picture is actually a jigsaw puzzle. how great to put something together and then admire it...hmmm that's a concept. and of course the angle of the art seems perfect for the eye




perfect eating for the 5 kids I want to have

IF SOMEONE CROSSES YOUR PATH





We are here with enjoyment yet the smallest thing will find a place in our existence and bury itself. Sometimes this thing will bury itself so deep that it needs space to grow, so it will find more space to grow. It's like roots from an Oak tree. It takes a group of men with machines to tear it out of the ground.  This small thing has planted itself in our space, our body, my body, starts to spread throughout. It finally has nowhere else to go so it starts to show through the eyes. Once it shows through your eyes, the whole can see it. The great thing about God is he will send people with machines to do their job. Only they are unseen. That's how I want to be worked on is by the unseen. Not in a hospital or getting injected with anything or alcohol or gossip, anger, lies, any of these things which bury themselves deep and go to "work" and clearly increases what can be seen. Faith, perseverance, not being embarrassed by the word. No reason to pardon his name.
I will be diligent in prayer.


the word




machines



Get ready to fight the good fight!

Style Confidence


. I always say you're going to get judged no matter what... so just be creative, fresh - comfortable





If you haven't discovered "balmain" you're missing out.



I love this "miumiu" suit. it actually fits.






dig dig dig "this" blazer







it's simple: guy's don't be afraid to dress how you want. I think it gives you that much more confidence. If other guys or girls make fun of you it's because they have no sense of style anyways

Mens Boots: A good idea



I love me some boots. I'm not sure which of these I'm ordering but it will be one or 2 of these! Feel free to let me know your opinion. This is my favorite season to wear clothes! To bad it doesn't get little colder in L.A.
















These last 3 are from "schmoove" Definitely worth checking out. I really dig the 3rd ones above





I've mentioned "allsaints" before. If you haven't looked at their online store...your loss.
I think these are the ones I'm getting

















If "johnvarvatosweren't too pricey I would have em all










I leave you with some boots from the 19th century. Boy have times changed.





Graduates of the West Point


I think it's a good idea to have a pair of any of these boots on hand.
