- I love the Olympics in general - more about that later this month as we get closer to the games - so I got really psyched when I saw this Gym Class Heroes video for "The Fighter." The gymnast featured in the video, John Orozco, is from the Bronx and did indeed qualify for the Olympic team this weekend in Omaha!
LOVE.
- Shape features plus-sized models (or, as I like to call them, normal looking women) including an opera singer and a private detective sharing what they love about their bodies.
- Reflections on embracing growth (even wrinkles!) from Intentional Adventures.
- Etsy Weddings features Maddie Eisenhart of A Practical Wedding writing about the bridal beauty paradox.
- The Nester's post on the purpose of a workspace is great for those of us who suffer from Magazine-itis, otherwise known as "why can't my house look like a Better Homes and Gardens spread all the time?" My favorite quote from the post: "Messy is real life and getting things done and every day simplicity and it's beautiful."
- Wedding Chicks features an Oregon barn wedding last week that includes so many details I love to see in weddings - cowgirl boots, lace, hydrangeas, and an adorable photo booth.
- If you enjoyed my roundup of library-themed wedding inspiration in June, you'll like the card catalog used to hold escort cards in this rustic yellow and cream wedding also featured on Wedding Chicks - their entries have been so on point lately!
- Ruffled features a Yellow Submarine themed wedding inspiration shoot. If these escort cards don't put a smile on your face, you really need to brush up on your Beatles catalog.
CARE.
- Last but definitely the most important "click" for me today: we are so lucky to have electricity right now and we have had several family members staying with us. Many Virginians do not have power following two terrible wind storms called "derechos" and will not until the end of the week because the power companies are having to spread themselves so thin. There have been seven deaths confirmed and our governor has declared a state of emergency. Please keep families without power- particularly the elderly, young children, pets who may have been left behind when families went to cooling centers, first responders, and electrical workers in your thoughts, as well as those who will not be able to work this week because their businesses are without power.
