Inspiring Woman

Rebel Wilson 

Bold, Brave and Beautiful.

Every time I see Rebel she keeps me wanting more. The hilarious 28 year old actress and comedienne bodes from Australia (as evidenced by this picture of Rebel hanging with Kangaroos) and has legitimately been stealing scenes in every movie role she gets.  

Yes, Rebel is her given name. But she's not the only one that lucked out in the name department. Her siblings names are Liberty, Ryot and Annachi, so kudos to her parents for staying consistent! In 2013 she is pairing up with Mark Walberg for her next role in Pain and Gain and I can't wait to see her flex those comedic muscles once again. Want a taste? Educate yourself with these videos!

Enjoy and happy Friday!

Tray Chic

How fun are trays? With so many ways to use them, from organizing baubles, to setting up mini bars, de-cluttering coffee tables or keeping nightstands tidy.

Whats your Tray Style?

Let the shenanigans begin...

Bringing on the boom. Sharing, connecting, community. These are the ideas behind The Color Boom. I'm a big communicator with lots of debt from attending graduate school to foster that passion into something productive, counseling. However the dress code in most therapy offices can be rather... restrictive, and many procrastinated hours were spent browsing online for what I would rather be wearing. And while I always managed to be able to add at least a tiny boom of color to my office outfits, my love for style was still feeling untapped. What better way to unleash and share than by staking a claim to my own little slice of the internet. Join me as I share with you things that make me smile, and of course lots and lots of color.
