5 Things Jolie-Miette Lovess

Hello lovelies (:

I've seen this "5 things I Love" all over the blogging world, so I thought I'd try it out. (No promises that it'll be permanent, I just like the idea (:)

1. She and Him

Just today I found this band by accident. Does the dame look familiar at all? She and Him lead singer happens to be Zooey Deschanel! I was so psyched when I found that she had a band (I adore her "Fabric of Life" commercial,) so I had to add her to this top 5. Isn't she adorable? She is the definition of all the styles I love - chic, classy and VINTAGE.

2. Reading

I've had a bit of a craving for knowledge lately; I can't help but check out a book that looks interesting to me. I have I'm not sure how many books checked out - pray that I don't lose any; I can't afford to buy a new one!
Anyway - my next book review will be about an essay I have been trying to finish for 2 months now: "The Architecture of Happiness" by Alain de Botton. It is a beautiful essay (novella?) about the way architecture affects our daily lives - to put it simply. Its magnificent (:

3. ModCloth Bookstore

I have found many intriguing notebooks (I'm a bit of a hog . . .) to say the least, but most importantly I have found interesting light-reading books for myself to check out when I feel like it. Plus - it brings about inspiration to my next posts (;

4. Europe

I love Europe. I love its' history, and how it shows with all its buildings and roads. It is enchanting to me, and I wish to someday live in their culture; I want to see what its like to live their easy-going way, rather than America's 'go-go-go' way. I love working hard, but they seem to have the right kind of mixture of life over there (:

5. Art

I love art. I love everything about art. If I had a choice, I'd sit in a class all day learning about different kinds of art and how to do it, and then I'd go out and apply what I learned every chance I got. I would live, breathe, EAT art (okay, maybe not EAT it, unless it was something like the above picture (:) I just love art. Its a big passion of mine, and I'm very blessed to have grown up (partly) around it!
