Sensual Start

PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket

Good Monday morning, lovelies! How was your weekend? Mine was wonderful. Lots of lounging around and I also got to watch a bunch of movies. I'm on the quest to see all of the best picture nominees before the Oscars.

Despite the lazy weekend I still find myself wishing for another day off. I think it has something to do with this time of year. No matter how much rest I get I still yearn for more.

So I'll take it slow this morning. Lots of prettiness and pampering before I head out to face the week.

Hope you all have a lovely day! xoxo

Beautiful photos. Saw No Strings Attached last eve. Loved Ashton, despite graphic sexual language. Call me old fashioned. But, he was ADORABLE. I'm sure his popularity rating will definitely go up with this role, and he can act. Beautiful use of eye expression. A cutie. ~ xox Alexandra

It's the weather, Dawn. It makes us want to hibernate... I think those bears are onto something! Love Rosebud salve... such a great little item for so many things and the price can't be beat! xo

I LOVE Rosebud Salve. I probably have 20 tins spread around the house.

Stacey said...

Awww, such pretty images to face this new week-thank you! Happy Monday to you too! XX

Sounds like the PERFECT weekend. It's obvious you still need a bit more "re-charging" time.

Darling Dawn, don't forget to pop over to my blog to enter our competition for a gorgeous ring from our boutique; a win just might perk your winter up!

I love all the subdued hues here's, so soft and pretty on my screen. When I shift my eyes to my planner, there are lots of hard lines and garish highlighter colors screaming at me! I've got to get a hand lotion tube that looks like the one here :) Luxury is small doses is where I get my kicks these days XOXO

classiq said...

Beautiful selection of pictures. I'd also like to see all the nominated movies before the Oscars, but unfortunately some of them will hit our theaters after the awards. Have a lovely week!

I am still off today and tomorrow for a stomach bug. though, I do enjoy stay at my comfy home!
Guess it's because of the weather: here in Italy it has been snowing for the whole weekend. Althought today is sunny, it's still pretty cold.

Hugs

Lindsey Regan Thorne @ be pretty said...

Sounds like a wonderful weekend and I couldn't agree more... why can't the "weekends" include one more day... by the time Saturday evening rolls around I find myself depressed about Monday! Love the imagery!

So Pretty! Just what I need to begin to dive into more work (just a few more hours, please--pretty please!). I especially love gorgeous shots of perfume bottles. Very luxurious!

Lana {lanalou style} said...

STYLE'N said...

I agee-why does the it feel like the weekends just fly by? And what a great idea about the movies...I am so behind these days. I have not even seen Black Swan yet : (

Your posts are always so beautiful and the pictures provide me with so much inspriation.

Like you this time of year all I really want to do is rest and I feel like no matter how much I get I want more.

Annie said...

I agree - I feel like I need 3 day weekends at the least lately, even after just having a little vacation.. :) I'm looking forward to catching up on your posts today!

Brittany H. said...

You know, does anyone ever feel the weekend is long enough? I sure don't! Pampering and prettiness sounds like the best way to head off the work week.

love love love that first photo!

Unknown said...

I want those black pumps. And whoever determined the five-day-work-week vs. two-day-weekend was a masochist. I'm just saying...sounds like you had a heavenly weekend!

Dawn said...

Gorgeous post...how about this crazy weather again this week? I don't like warmer weather because I am pasty white and burn like paper in the sun but I sure could go for a lovely Spring morning on my deck with no bugs to bother me as I scour the latest mags. and sip my coffee. How about you? Hope its a good week for you. Dawn XX

Julie-Inspired said...

We see so many movies...but always, always miss the ones that win! This year, I'm definitely seeing them:) Your weekend sounded perfect I did a lot of the same...cleaning, lounging and walking the pups.

ryan said...

This post makes me want to lingerie shop! Such beautiful things. Maybe you will get lucky and get a snow day tomorrow or Wed? xoxo

Jaime @ laviejaime said...
