La Vie en Rose


"La Vie en Rose." What an interesting idea: to see our lives everyday through rose colored glasses. I recently purchased this print off Etsy and have enjoyed waking up to it every morning. It's my daily reminder to see the beauty in everything, even when your day gives you little to appreciate. So far this is the only thing hanging on my bare wall. I've been in my apartment for almost a year now, and this poor print is still the only piece I have hung. It's time for me to take off my rose colored glasses for a second, so I can actually see the sadness of the lone hanging. Weekend project: frame the maps I have for this wall! What do all of you think of this print and the idea of seeing life through rose colored glasses? I think it's quite lovely! Hope you all made it through the midweek hump. On to the weekend! xx

  1. I definitely believe in a "La Vie en Rose" approach to life. Sometimes we tend to take things for granted but when we step back and put on those rose colored glasses, it makes us realize how lucky we really are. Once we do that, we can truly appreciate and enjoy the great things in our lives. Of course, once in a while we have to be realists and deal with the everyday stuff like bills, emptying the dishwasher (my least favorite activity!), deadlines, etc. But even those things can be minimized and made more pleasant with a little humor and romantic view on life :).
