Take a Chance

via Pinterest
Wise words from Katy Perry to start your week.
I'm taking a chance on design school, on moving to the big city (of Toronto), on living in a house with 5 girls I've never met, and most importantly on PURSUING MY DREAMS. 

I'm so excited for what the present  holds.
I hope you all have a blessed week!

By Invitation Only: Dream Day..


I am sure that many of you could have imagined where my dream day would take me.. Paris of course.   This time with the Mr.  we have not been to Paris together for over 10 years and I think a day spent with him there would be just dreamy.  We would wake up to this view and have our Pain au chocolat for breakfast with a tall glass of juice.

We would then wander the palace and gardens at Versailles, where he would of course take me on a row boat on the water while I relaxed and we could chat (uninterrupted- this is a luxury).
 

We would then picnic on the grass with baguettes, fresh fruit, cheeses and wine.  Once full we would lay back and find shapes in the passing clouds.
 

After a relaxing train ride back to the city we would window shop and go into some of my favorites for a real treat- Astier de Villate and always something vintage and memorable.


A nice visit to Merci would be a great idea too.. maybe a little light reading while we have a pick me up in the cafe.
 

A little more shopping.

A before dinner snack with a great view of the rooftops of Paris.


Finally a beautiful view of the city at sunset from Tour Eiffel.
 

 What do you dream of?

Please take a moment to visit the other ladies and see what their dream days hold..

Small Town Girl, Big City Dreams

Welcome everyone! (Feels a bit silly saying this when I am fully aware that no one knows my blog exists...yet).

I've decided to start blogging as a way of exploring the new direction that my life has taken the past year and a half.
Okay... so the story goes like this:
Summer of 2010, I was living what some might call a content life. It was ordinary, comfortable, and I didn't question the path that I was taking in my personal life or in my professional life. I was on track to getting my undergrad degree and continuing on to teacher's college, I didn't give it much thought.

And then, one day, when I totally wasn't looking for it, I met someone who taught me (word for word), that "you can't live life afraid of your own shadow".

Well, let me tell you something folks. He was right. Since that conversation I've done a lot of thinking about what it is that I want in life. And what I want, is to become an Interior Designer.

Before then, I had only been on a plane once when I was very small. I had not been to another Canadian province other than the one I live in. Since then, I've flown by myself three times to Halifax and back. I've completed a portfolio and been accepted to the design school of my dreams.

In other words, I am well on my way to leaving my beloved small town behind, and trying to make it in the big city. This is my journey, and I invite you along to see how it all turns out!

Love always,
Tiffany Leigh

ps. Everything here is still under major construction, but I hope to get it all more or less sorted out over the Christmas break. Feedback and comments always welcome :)

Dreaming {by invitation}




Dreams are such a fun thing.  I have so many but there is one that keeps jumping out at me.  I think it maybe more of a wish than a dream but I am truly not sure what the difference is any more.

 I dream of having a wonderful place in France to spend time in with my family, when I say time I mean real time where we eat together outside, we cook together, take hikes and walks and learn about the surrounding areas.  A home base to travel to new worlds together, just us, just for fun!


This beautiful home would be filled with my favorite of all favorites!  Astier de Villatte dishes and furnishings mixed with amazing French finds from Brocantes and local artisans.  Things would be striped down and natural just like the surroundings and the food.  It would be amazing we would cook and read.


We would ride bikes around just so we could see everything and stop anywhere. 


Eating outside as often as possible would be the norm..


My mind might even be free enough to have time to create some new classics based on old methods.


 

I would have the time and patience to learn how to draw and possibly paint.



A girl can dream right!

What about you what do you dream about?



Please take a minute to stop by and see everyone who participated today!!
