I Wish I Had...

One of these designs by Chair Couture! How amazing are they? Bringing all the best parts of being outside inside.

Inspiration of the Day: Back to Belly Dance

Yesterday I was looking at some beautiful hip scarves on eBay and I felt a renewed desire to take belly dancing back up after about 4 years of losing all that stomach muscle unfortunately. Ugh it's so much harder now! I started back up watching those Shakira (she's really is an amazing belly dancer) videos that had inspired me so long ago and I got lost browsing all the wonderful costume shops that are online. So maybe this will inspire you too. It's really great exercise and lots of fun (especially wearing the costumes)!
