Pretty {tough} Monday Favorites

Been experiencing one tough week after another that's why I haven't been online as much I would have wanted to lately. But that's all water under the bridge now. I kept on saying that there's gotta be a rainbow behind all those clouds and true enough, looks like I'm looking at a better future once the next two weeks are over. Finally! The power of words and positive thinking at its finest indeed! Anyway, I've saved and collected quite a few lovely things from all over once again, so in the tradition of Monday favorites, I'm sharing them today to hopefully add a little dose of pretty and inspiration to your day too. Hope you're having a nice Monday! Let's show this day who's the real boss! :)

I'm tough like Monday morning. Like this print so much!

This photo reminds me of my upcoming 27th birthday. Yes, somebody's getting so old. Taking five days off work starting tomorrow (yay), but will most likely celebrate alone at home. Oh, the perks of living abroad! :(

Speaking of birthdays, how cool would it feel like waking up with these pretty colorful hope balloons on my birthday?

This adorable little kitty will be me in a few days (I hope). Finally getting my first ever pair of eyeglasses. It still bugs me that I no longer have perfect eyesight. :(

This lovely necklace screams me.

In a perfect world.

Nights are getting colder here in Dubai. Really need to invest in lots of comfy and cute pajamas like these ones.

Lovin' today's Google Doodle's tribute to Ada Lovelace. Smart girls rock!
