Angel in the Park

Did we all have fun watching the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show last night?  I actually missed it due to my boyfriend's obsession with Sons of Anarchy, but it is DVR'd and I can't wait to watch it.  Alessandra Ambrosio is one of my favorite models, and of course she is most famous as her role as VS Angel.  But I am swooning over these shots of her in Vogue Brazil.  Accompanied by Brazilian actor Rodrigo Santoro, they might just be the most picturesque couple to ever be styled in a fashion editorial, don't you think?

My Heart Belongs To A Leo Jansen

The past few days have been a whirlwind!  My parents bought a new house, and needless to say we've all been very excited.  The house itself is so pretty, and the icing on the cake is the fact that the previous owner left lots of fun things for us to go through.  After a little digging around my mom found a painting that is perfect.   My new room is going to be elegant, and this print complemented it in all the right ways.  It inspires so much, specifically feminine beauty.  Without being erotic, cliche, or tacky (which so many nude portraits can be) it captures all the things I wanted my new room to be - a place to get ready and indulge in all things girly.  After a little research I found out that the painting is by Leo Jansen a Dutch artist who specialized in portraits.  I'm obsessed, to say the least, and I'm now reallllly excited to get some ultra girly things for my room and self.  Take a look at what I have in mind below.
