She’s a phenomenal woman! Here are some inspiring words from her Oprah Interview:

“I’ve learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.”

“I’ve learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you’ll miss them when they’re gone from your life.”

“I’ve learned that making a “living” is not the same thing as “making a life.”

“I’ve learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.”

“I’ve learned that you shouldn’t go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back.”

“I’ve learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.”

“I’ve learned that even when I have pains, I don’t have to be one.”

“I’ve learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone.
People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.”

“I’ve learned that I still have a lot to learn.”

“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

Love this picture. love. love. love.

Drew Barrymore wore this lovely number in the movie Music and Lyrics. I have forever been twitterpated ever since.

Then there’s the tunic dress! Here’s one from Isabel Marant’s runway show, billowy yet figure-flattering:

And one from Kate Moss’ TopShop collection. She can do no wrong fashion-wise! (but is that a shirt or a dress????)

I got a new motorcycle jacket from Urban Outfitters yesterday! I love it. The fit is perfect, the color is unusal and cool (stone gray) and it’s soft and sexy.

This picture inspired me:

Here’s the jacket. Motorcycle chicks are hot. Too bad I don’t have a bike!

Here’s my dream bike:

Thanks for these discoveries Joanna!

I want to start wearing these! But where??? Hmmm, maybe church? ( photos via Cup of Jo)
