Birman cats.
Listening to music I haven’t listened to in a long, long time and falling in love with it all over again.
Bright Star. ♥ Again. (Why yes, I am obsessed!)
Cliched sailor-style tattoos.
The colour magenta.
Christmas lights that are still on in the middle of January.
Brilliant ideas in the middle of the night.
Homemade blueberry muffins fresh from the oven when the tops are still crunchy.
Snow! (Snow never gets old in my books, and is always happiness inducing.)
Receiving a response to a message I sent Coco Rocha. “Oh you’re sweet. I’ll tweet about it after 7pm! Xoxo” Saving that forever!
Eating so many Sweet Tarts your tongue becomes tingly for hours.
Discovering my Dad also likes Natalie Portman.

It’s hard to believe that 2009 and this decade are already coming to a close! It’s unreal to think back on the Y2K hoopla – that was ten years ago now!

Welcome to The One Hundredth – my 100th post! I’m so thrilled! It’s hard to believe that only 3.5 months ago, I reached 50 posts. And a few short months before that, back in dreary February, I revived this itty bitty little blog from its year-long hiatus. I’m so glad that I did, too. In fact, knowing how much this blog and the people I’ve met through it mean to me now, I only wish I would have brought it back to life much sooner. Hello, sappiness. ;)
But anyhow, when faced with the task of coming up with “the perfect” topic to celebrate the 100 post mark, I had so many different ideas of what to do, but nothing seemed quite right. Until I found the photograph below. And then it just clicked. After all, that’s what this blog is all about in the first place: anything and everything that I love and find inspiring. My favourite things.

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes,
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes,
Silver white winters that melt into springs,
These are a few of my favourite things…

Gemma Ward
Because she will always be my favourite model. ♥ I wish her all the best pursuing her dreams. (Send her love!) And she was wonderful in The Black Balloon. I’m bummed it STILL isn’t released on DVD in North America.

La Roux
Because I’m addicted to Bulletproof. And Fascination. And Tiger Lily. And… the whole album.
