The Royal Wedding

The wait is over, William and Catherine are married!
They were married at 11:00 a.m. in London England (5:00 a.m. here), the Queen has given the couple the title of Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and they will live in Wales.
Did you watch it? If so you can recap all you saw, if not this is the wedding of William and Catherine! It was truly a fairy-tale wedding <3
A very sweet couple.

An adorable couple.



A royal couple.


The lovely Queen of England in one of her hats ;)



William and Harry... Harry is still single ;)

"...with this ring I thee wed..."



I loved the little subtle looks William and Catherine passed between each other throughout the ceremony. They leave the Abbey man and wife!


I was stunned by her dress. I loved everything about it; the train, the sleeves... everything <3


The wedding procession back to Buckingham palace...


And the long awaited kiss... my thoughts


PERFECT!






And this is so so cute, William drives his new bride to the party in their own car ;)


I am hoping that her gown will inspire women to ditch the strapless (after all you have to have the perfect body in order to wear one... and most women don't),

and that weddings will be so much more wonderfully important.


I hope this will be a wedding and marriage to remember <3

Just because I wanted to

I love books. So naturally I love bookshelves, and around the 'world wide web' you come across things you like.
Hence this post :D
This is from a dream! One of those bookshelves you find in a old house, with a ladder to climb on... and a nice couch where you can sit and have coffee or something.

If I ever live in a house with slanted ceilings... I am totally building this!


"Honey where is that book?" Oh! To have so many books in your house that you can't find the one your looking for... sigh...

I see this in a NY crib or something :) I don't just want one of these for my kids... I want one for me too!





Interesting... I wonder how this works? So that I can do it in my house.Imagine a finished basement filled with bookshelves like this, instead of video games, ping-pong and pool tables! How wonderful would that be?! You have to click on this picture and blow it up to really see what this is like.


Anyway, I have a lot of idea's for my own house someday... I wonder if my husband will be a book nut like me? Or will I have to lock him in the library for a while?


Thanks for reading my rantings :D

Beastly: Review

Kyle Kinsbury (Alex Pettyfer) has it all; good looks, wealth, the hot girlfriend even a popular newscaster dad. He even openly says he's got it all, and tells everyone that good looking, rich people get it better. But at the prom, Kyle's cruel self comes forth again and plays a mean trick on Kendra (the school witch), and she's had enough. So she puts him under a curse... to be as aggressively unattractive on the outside as he is on the inside. He has one year to find someone to love him, or stay like this forever! So Kyle goes into hiding. Just like the Phantom of the Opera, or the Hunch-back of Notra Dame. And changes his name to Hunter. Time is ticking. He's still a jerk. Until Lindy (Vanessa Hudgens) comes into his life, and his house.
He's protecting her from her addict dad, trying all the time to make her fall in love with him.
It seems to be working...
She's changing him, he's completely in love with her... He even builds her a greenhouse on the roof, just because she likes roses! What a romantic! Sigh...



Living like a princess, she still feels like a prisoner. And when her dad overdoses and ends in the hospital, Kyle (or Hunter) lets her leave. Is he jeopardizing the whole thing, and will he stay the way he is forever or will she come back to him?


(By the way her clothes are soooo cute :D)

Like I said :)


I truly liked this movie.

An adaption from Beauty and the Beast (my favorite, so maybe that's why I liked it so much?)

and the book written by Alex Finn (I do not recommend reading the book, as it was slightly more sensual than the movie)

Rated PG-13 for language including crude comments, brief violence and some thematic material.


I personally would buy this movie, but I would recommend watching it on clearplay clearplay.com
