Happy Friday! I’ve been a little MIA this week with some craziness at work, but I’m here now! I had the opportunity to stop into the Coach showroom to see the Pre-Fall 2013 collection (which is AMAZING by the way) yesterday. I’ll share some more about that with you guys over the weekend but for now here are my pinterest loves from this week, because let’s be real… one is never too busy for pinning:

 I.II.III.IV

I just discovered a Tumblr called Grounded on the Daily and I can’t get enough. Not only is Nicole Miyuki ridiculously talented, but she somehow chooses the absolute best quotes to work with. I was feeling a bit down yesterday, and this helped bring a smile to my face. I know you want to look at her portfolio, so go do it!

Sometimes I feel like my own worst enemy. You know the whole, “there’s nothing holding me back but me” kind of thing. In my case it’s so true. Remember when I told you about my goal setting? This weekend my plan is to sit down and go through the list with a fine tooth comb. What are the things that mean the most to me and what is a realistic expectation of myself? Sometimes I get these crazy ideas in my head and I write them down only to find myself dissapointed when they never come to fruition. This weekend is going to change that for good… mark my words (and this is totally not one of those crazy ideas, I swear)!

Happy Wednesday! Do you have a long weekend? Today is my Thursday because we have this Friday off and I can’t wait for the weekend. Lately I’m spending a lot of time writing my goals out on paper. Some get crossed off and re-written and many will never be achieved, but I always keep one written down so I don’t forget: “be the best version of yourself”. This illustration by Molly Jacques (who is fantastic) captures just that. Get out there and be a first rate version of yourself today and everyday, because you’ll never get anywhere attempting to follow someone else’s lead.

Happy Friday! Do you ever have one of those days where you find yourself wishing for things to change and something better to come along? Well, it’s time to take your life into your own hands. If I’ve realized anything over the past year it’s that you need to make your own happiness. Don’t sit around hoping for better things or you’ll find yourself a few years later wishing you had that time back. On that note, everyone enjoy your weekend as much as possible!
