Julia Roberts - Cruiser Bicycle - Eat,Pray,Love

via electra blog

Julia is riding on a cruiser bicycle. The scene of course is from the movie Eat, Pray, Love.
Ah, how lovely riding your bicycle down a county road and past fields of green...
Hope I enjoy the movie, I plan on seeing it over this weekend.
Hey, everyone have a great weekend too!

{have a wonderful weekend + links}

. . . late saturday afternoon and after last weekend's whirlwind trip to nyc, slowing things down just a little and happily spending much-needed time at home . . . there are no cases to pack or flights to catch, only long and leisurely conversations over dinners in favourite restaurants, late mornings sipping coffee and flipping through glossy magazines and warm nights under falling stars . . .

hope you're having a perfectly wonderful weekend and that it's beautiful where you are,
xo

Awe TGIF!
Haha Wow this was a really long week...
I'm so tired..
How are you?
Did you have a good week?
Well Happy Inspiration Friday!

Which is the title of the first book out of many I've been planning on writing.
I've also been planning to write a music album to go along with the book.
The Song I posted above is the Title Track I wrote for of the music album.
and the Images above are a pretty good representation of the mood of the book and album to me.
Well i hope you like the images and the song!

OFF THE RECORD

Last few weeks just passed away so fast...Summer is ending and most of my summer was spent in the city and at suada or taksim.I have been in a progress of looking at myself and what I really want to do to be more happy and positive and away from stress.I realized that I love travelling and vacations-not people.So I decided to travel thru all my vacation.And I planned on a huge trip.I am going to Italy this weekend for 8 days.I will be travelling to Milan,Florence,Rome and Venice.When I'm back I'll immediately leave Istanbul and go to our summer house.I will spend 2-3 days there then I will go to Çeşme and meet my friends there.We will stay in Çeşme for about 5 days or 6.Then I'll be back to Istanbul.And, after 1.5 weeks I will go to Barcelona.I will stay there for about 4 days.And then I will be back in town and I will focus on Istanbul and hot spots.


I'm 100% sure I will have so much fun, especially in Çeşme with my favorite friends.And I can't wait to see Italy-its my first time visiting the country.I've been reading all history and art stuff on Italy and now its time.


I am leaving everything far behind.Good or bad.I never look back.So I won't look back when I'm back in town.I don't care what had influence on me good or bad.I don't really care.And I don't really care anything at all.I just love the life I live and every day of my life.Its my life and I depend on me.Thats the best part.I decide what I do,what I buy,where I go,what I drink and eat,what I enjoy.Its all my own.its my life.and its damn good.


I won't be writing for 2 weeks.I'm officially off the record.


I know I won't be the same person after all those travelling.I know.and ...I started to like it.

{hello & a few things . . .}

. . . hello! a quiet evening after a busy late-summer day, a little exhausted and beautifully so, after an amazingly productive start to the week and already it feels as if time is slipping away . . . and drowning, drowning in e-mails and a little overwhelmed -- if you have written and have not received a response, please take no offense, and click here . . .

hope you're having a perfectly wonderful week so far,

{decor inspiration: endless summer}

. . . can never resist the elegance of french doors, especially when they are flung open to the intoxicating sounds of the ocean and the last fading days of summer -- and every year around this time, striped rugs and ceiling beams and the charm of a quaint beachside cottage is overwhelmingly alluring . . .

{design inspiration: wooden laptop cases}

. . . quite smitten with these streamlined and beautifully elegant wooden laptop cases with leather lining -- a wonderful combination of natural elements and technology, and a perfect mix of rustic and modern . . .

{p.s.} & speaking of wood: decals
