creative inspirations

Inspiration {for creativity} is everywhere.

movie sets + fashions
hip cafés
a plant on a window sill
the petals of a flower
street art
new insight from a real friend
a pink sky
holding your daughter's hand (no matter her age)
a photograph or piece of art that connects with your soul


*****


Sometimes we just need to remind ourselves to look around, experience the moment, and see the art in the every day. I just came across an Andy Warhol quote I love, "There is beauty in everything, just not everybody sees it."

Be the one who sees it.

Here are a few things that have inspired me recently ...



* A fresh snowfall in NC (+ this photo of my back-porch by my daughter)



* Cool cafés + Plant obsessions 
(Currently obsessed with plants + coffee cafés, like this one in Charlotte's Atherton Mill & Market.
Do share any must-see sweet spots you've discovered.)

* Simple chic Black 
+ White style
(read my recent blog post here)



* Re-discovering inspiration {like these amazing images from an ELLE magazine spread featuring Julia Roberts - Eat, Pray, Love}. The old issue is sitting on the top of a heap of favorite magazines on a bookshelf in my home office {which btw is currently a catastrophe). Though life is messy, having beautiful inspiration at close hand reminds us of our need to create {and our need to eat, pray & love.}
