And the crown goes to...

Me, you and a wiener!!!! I know, your thinking what?? I'm getting to that, I promise I have a point! You know what I love about being young and just starting out, not to mention broke? Its that you have to be creative. Come on, I know you have to remember those days. I miss them and I am truly inspired by some of what I see out there. Bri over at Me, you and a wiener is officially the queen of DIY's! She can take something that is nothing and turn it into something fabulous. Makes me wonder why you would ever want to pay full price for something just for a name when you can do the same thing Bri does! Talk about a Chic Streak!! Here are a few of my fav's! She is my kinda girl!!! Do we have any DIYer's out there? If so I want to hear from you, what's your latest project?

Hugs and Kisses!

Death of an era!!!!

This was not my intended post for today but I'm sad! The last of Hollywood royalty is gone with the death of Elizabeth Taylor this morning. I just loved watching old movies with my mother as I was growing up. Dame Elizabeth was always one of my favorites. The way she carried herself and the clothes she wore was just too perfect and she made you proud to be a woman! I feel as though this officially makes me old (which, by the way, is something I will nevah be)!!! So as we bid adieu...here are some of my fav's!

Spring Has Sprung!!!

At least I hope so. down here in the south our spring always starts in March/April. We do usually have a cold spell around Easter but its still spring. Tyler has a fantastic Azalea Trails coming up and if you've never seen it you just don't know what your missing...but I'll do a post on that later. All this springyness has me thinking about outdoors...gardens, flowerbeds, outdoor rooms, patios, porches...you get the jist! I absolutely love some of these and I have always wanted an outdoor bedroom! What do you think...any plans for you outdoor area? I'm really wanting to work outside today!!

Hugs and Kisses!

Let the sun shine in!!!

Ok...been sick! That so stinks!!! Especially since we are having the most beautiful weather around here. Windy, but the sun is shining and spring is here! Of course that actually makes being sick even worse! So thought I'd bring the sunshine in...hope you enjoy them as much as I did. They made me smile and that ultimately made me feel better! Tulips are my favorite flower! Love the pink shades on those blue and white lamps, would not have thought of that one! The cottages and bright colors make me want to be outside in a garden or just sitting with a big ole glass of sweet tea reading under a shade tree! you know us southerner's make the best ever sweet tea! What makes you smile, what's your idea of spring, what do you do to feel better?

Wild Wednesday's!

Wild Wednesday's! thats right...from now on that's what Wednesday is all about here at Chic Streak! Wild about color! I so enjoyed the little pick me up from the honeysuckle post that I decided we should have a color day. Hump day sounded like the perfect day for it too. Something to get us out of our rut, push us on thru til the end of the week, recharge, revive and reinspire!!!!! Sounds great doesn't it...think we can get all that from color? Ok, ok...maybe not ALL that but by gosh its sure worth a try! Especially since we're iced in again here! Picaso said, "color like features, follow the changes of the emotions." So here goes nothing...let me know what you think and if you do get something out of it. Is there a color you'd like to see and get some inspiration from? Happy hump day!!!!
