I've always saved pictures from magazines, collected newspaper clippings, made playlists for motivation, created collages, written down quotations from books, movies, everyday life, amoung many other things, throughout my life because some things are so incredible to me that I have to document it.

I recently got a binder and filled it with pages of magazines and newspaper articles - I should show it to you all sometime.

I also created a folder on my computer titled "Inspiration". This folder includes photography, pictures of amazing rooms, skies, just everything and anything that especially strikes my attention and makes me smile a little.

I have to admit that this idea was kind of - I don't want to say "taken" or "borrowed" - maybe inspired (? :D) by Ohmakemeup. This girl has some mad creativity and such an amazing blog - it's definately one of my favorites.

So I'll be a copy cat and post pictures that are under my Inspiration folder <3. PS - I do NOT own any of these photos.
















[This last photo is actually by Adam - he's my crush of the moment <3 I absolutely adore him & his videos, and his photography is spectacular]
