I am so happy that Jabbawockeez won America’s Best Dance Crew!

I love to dance and I remember practicing and learning new steps with friends. I used to love any talent show or school performances that required dance or acting. There’s something about practicing and getting a move down and using that in front of everyone.

The thing that I love about the Jabbawockeez is how tight and precise they are with their movements. Which I know from experience takes a lot of practice and dedication to have everyone be in sync. This crew from San Diego uses masks and gloves to add some drama to their performances. Also, I’m not sure but I think their name comes from a Lewis Carroll poem and if that’s true, then I heart them even more.

Plus, their vibe reminds me of some friends and an ex-boyfriend who used to compete in dance-offs. So, it’s very sentimental to me. Here are some performances. Also, check out MTV overdrive for more videos!

Yes, yes we know florals are everywhere!

In nature, on dresses, in your hair.

Perhaps.

There are times that I think I’m very close to being sick of the floral overload with clothes already…or am I? Done right, I can appreciate it. Done wrong…hmm.

These thoughts will not stop me from rocking my thrifted floral dresses and mixing and matching them with interesting patterns and textures, though.

I have realized that I am not sick of seeing gauzy, images with flowers. I’ve added many to the inspiration board.

Case in point, these images from Ellegirl Korea are just romantic and magical enough to keep me inspired.

Is there anything that you might be close to tiring of but still find inspiration in?
