Hello friends! I'm assuming you've noticed my blog's new look and new name. I've been planning on updating my blog and devoting more of myself to it so I'm really excited to get it all started! "La belle vie" means "beautiful life" in French which is essentially the heart of my blog. In a society that bombards us with daily what they tell us is beautiful, I want my blog to be about rediscovering true beauty and all the little beautiful things we see in everyday life. The two kinds of blogs I've found the most inspiring since I started blogging are personal fashion blogs and healthy living blogs. My ultimate plan is to fuse the two together to form my own personal journey toward health and and self discovery with little stories of my daily adventures and some outfit and food photos along the way. I like the idea of making it more simple and personal just as if I were talking to a friend at the end of the day. So with that said, this coming Wednesday I will officially be changing my URL to labellevie29.blogspot.com and I want all my faithful followers to mark their calenders! I'm still learning the ropes with all the blogger gadgets and gismos so please bear with me as I work toward perfecting the look and feel of La Belle Vie.

One thing that made me smile this week? After a perfectly wretched morning waking up to see that my alarm clock never went off and that I had in fact woken up an hour and a half later than I needed to for work, shattering a wine glass and letting a cat in that is not allowed in my room in my flurry out the door and not having time to tend to either, I was incredibly happy to have a fun filled mid afternoon photo shoot with Jess and Grace on our break. It was St. Patrick's Day and notice that I am the only one decked out in green. You gotta protect yourself, ladies! Also, my sister Chelsea came home for Spring break on Friday and we've been having lots of fun fulfilling her shopping and movie deprivation. Every night we've been doing a double feature which as many of you know is A-okay with me! I can't believe I actually made it through 127 Hours last night and liked it! Of course afterwards we were in need of some comic relief (and eye candy) in the form of Robert Downey Jr. in Due Date. Now that my friends, is a perfect note to end the day on ;)
