random OG inspiration

 

"I'm not like most designers who have to

set sail on an exotic getaway to get inspired.

Most of the time, it's on my walk to work,

or sitting in the subway and seeing something

random or out of context."

~Alexander Wang

 

How about you?

Is inspiration random for you?

Let's give RANDOM a whirl today

FOR NO GOOD REASON.

Maybe, just maybe it will tingle your jingles.

makes one want to pack it up and move

to the city?

8 Spring Pick Me Ups

O  N  E    G  I  R  L

is stoked

SPRING is HERE

and

summer's on deck.

 

 

Here are just a few pick-me-ups to keep us thriving

in this season of RENEWAL and PROMISE.

via

1.

Upgrade the contents of your closet.

It's the perfect time to let go of

some of the stuff you haven't

 been wearing and donate

it to a good cause.

 

Then stop into OG for some

great buys and replenishing!

2.

Tidy up the joint.

Organization does not have to be complicated.

A few hooks.

A couple boxes to hide the littles.

Ahhhhhhhh, that feels nice.

3.

Indulge in some fresh blooms.

Sure, we can live without them.

But bringing life and color into the

spaces we spend time is a small

act of kindness to ourselves.

Ummmmm...this is a painting, dudes. by Cheryl Kelley.

4.

Join the joy ride.

Ride with the top down

and the music blaring.

If that doesn't sizzle your bacon

or make you feel ALIVE,

add ice cream.

And cotton candy as necessary!

St. James Hotel - Paris

5.

Get comfy in the boudoir.

Spring is such an awesome season to shed

the heavy duvet and pull on fresh

new sheets and pillows.

6.

Do something different with your hair.

Switch it up.

Change your part.

Chop it off or

try extenstions.

7.

Laugh even more everyday.

We are living in tense times.

There are all sorts of stresses

and heartaches and sucky moments

when gratitude is hard to find

and peace eludes us.

Which is why we must fight to

keep a sense of humor.

Keep deepening those laugh lines.

Keep tickling the brain

and smiling

til the

cheeks

ache.

 

 

 

8.

Let love drive away fear.

It's risky.

It's honorable.

It looks good on you.

 

One Girl wishes you a prosperous spring
and a very happy weekend, friends.

Peace.

So how 'bout some free lovin' 60's
flower child inspiration to get
us all in the mood?

wild wasteland

Yeah, baby, yeahhhhhh.
Here are 7 ideas get you bloomin.

idea no. 1...WEAR A DARING LIP COLOR

Lovin this modern take on flower power
with dramatic red lips and wild hair.
 

via

idea no. 2...DARK GLASSES WORK WITH THE LOOK

One Girl is crazy about Vanessa Mooney
designed jewelry, and these next
few images were lifted from
their gorgeous blog.




idea no. 3...BRAIDS and HIPPIE SKIRTS

Both pixies and crazy long hair
were fashionable in the Sixties,
and braids pair perfectly with boho chic
clothing and prairie skirts with a hippie vibe.



idea no. 4...BE TOO LAZY TO BRAID. PIN ON A CORSAGE.

A girl doesn't always have time
for braids or styling.
This works with any length of hair, btw.



idea no. 5...STEP INTO ONE GIRL FOR FAB

We've got tons of options for wardrobe,
and a wristful of bangles will never
go out of style.



idea no. 6...COLORS OF THE RAINBOW

How boring would it be if
flowers came in just one hue???
Flower children aren't careful
about matching colors either.




idea no. 7...HEADBANDS

You've been seeing them on everybody,
and they just have fun written all over 'em.


 

One bonus idea for capturing flower power...
find peace within yourself so you
are able to genuinely apply it
to your daily life.

This is how we change the world, friends.

 

 

 

brand new days

 

A blanket of snow still covers us
in the heartland, and I for one
am not wishing it away
tooooo soon since
I have come to
enjoy it in
healthy
new
ways
(hello, snowboarding!)
as I savor so many beautiful
brand new days.

Brand new days mean
brand new
OPPORTUNITIES.
 

 

 

BRAND NEW PLACES
TO EXPLORE.
 

 

BRAND NEW BAGS?
Oh, heck ya.

 

BRAND NEW WAYS
TO EXPRESS
INDIVIDUALITY...

BRAND NEW FRIENDS
AND LOVE TO SHARE.

I hope you are looking to your future
of brand new days, and a brand new
spring season with anticipation
and optimism.
