Paris is Always a Good Idea

♫ The Teenagers- Streets of Paris ♫ 

Bonjour Tour Eiffel

Hey guys!

It's been a while since my last post....I know..... I need to update more often! 

I have like a gajillion pictures of Paris so far but I'll share a few with you guys of the places I've been to so far. 

It feels so nice to be able to enjoy Paris way longer than the last time I was here, I finally get to see so much more and experience it in the summer! The weather was a little bit rainy and moody when I first arrived but it's actually been quite sunny and beautiful. I'll definitely make an actual blog post of my trip when I get back home but in the mean time I hope you guys enjoy these pictures! I'll try and update with more pictures whenever I get a chance!

But until now bisous :)

PS- I'm still here for a couple more days so if you guys have any recommendations feel free to send them my way!

I don't know about you guys but "life without art is just eh".

I easily get lost into abstract paintings there's just something about these paintings: the swirl, splatters, and mix of colors, along with the mystery behind the artwork. I've always been a fan of art but lately I've been so much into abstract watercolor, oil, or acrylic paintings, they just always capture my attention because I love being in my own artsy state of mind. Lately, I just can't get enough of soft pastels especially the combination of dusty pink, sky blue, and hints of gold. Art inspires me in so many ways and I'm hoping to get back to painting again!

and Artsy for more art inspiration.

Do you guys have any favorite artists?
