Than it got me thinking: why have I had this aversion to <a href="http://the-margaret-files.blogspot.com/search/label/pink" target="_blank">pink</a> (<i>or most colors for that matter</i>) of late? Buying the dress, wearing it loud and proud, YOLO. File as color bomb.<div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>yup, dats me 10 years apart</i></span></div>
<br />
Last weekend, I got my passport photo taken for the first time in 10 years. <i>10 years</i>. I was flipping through my old passport - with stamps from 10 countries including my Italian Visa - and it got me meditating on the how much I can't stand to stay in one place for too long - even if it just means a weekend getaway. I think about where my mind goes when I'm not focused on work, life or anything of any importance; and it always goes straight to where the next ticket will take me.<br />
<br />
This might be a good time to mention that I also partially stalk the Instagram feeds of <a href="http://instagram.com/margaret__zhang" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">@margaret__zhang</a>, <a href="http://instagram.com/lusttforlife" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">@lusttforlife</a>, <a href="http://instagram.com/garypeppergirl" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">@garypeppergirl</a> & <a href="http://instagram.com/blisskatherine" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">@blisskatherine</a> not because I particularly like their style (<i>scratch that, yeah I do</i>) but because they also have some of the dreamiest, <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/themargaretfile/pins/" target="_blank">Pinterest</a>-worthy travel photos around.<br />
<br />
I've been to some pretty incredible places in my life thus far and I'm still not quite sure where the next 10 years will take me, but I really hope that it's to a whole lot more places that I've never seen before (<i>and maybe back to a few that are calling my name.</i>) File as wanderlust.<br />

One of the projects that I feel I'm always tragically failing at has to be to bring more <a href="http://the-margaret-files.blogspot.com/search/label/Art" target="_blank">art</a> into my <a href="http://the-margaret-files.blogspot.com/search/label/Home" target="_blank">home</a>. While my last two places in Berkeley each had their own rotating gallery walls and a few DIY hangings, this newer (<i>and by new I mean I've lived here for almost 14 months now...</i>) place didn't quite get the same wall art love. I've <a href="http://the-margaret-files.blogspot.com/2014/01/update-nothing-impress-no-one.html" target="_blank">put up a few finds</a> from Melrose Trading Post, but it's still not the curated collection that I've dreamt it to be.<br />
<br />
And with Valentine's day right around the corner (<i>hashtag</i> <i>treating self</i>) I'm feeling totally inspired to add a few more pieces to my walls. Whether it be one of the perfectly adorable art prints from <a href="http://bit.ly/MintedArtPrints" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Minted</a> (<i>fave new find for when you're feeling Etsy-ed out</i>) or a 3 dimensional DIY install like the <a href="http://bit.ly/1gjNkL5" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">heart</a> above (<i><a href="http://bit.ly/1fWCDzv" target="_blank">via Minted's equally lovely blog Julep</a></i>) it'll be the perfect way to show my place a little love. File as home, sugar.<br />

Yeah, yeah it's been a while since I've posted here. Chalk it up to the fact that I've moved on to a new role with the insanely-just-a-smidge-too-cool-for-me Malibu-based company Planet Blue and have spent the majority of my weekends unplugging from my digital domain. Seriously upping my game as I type... As always though, I had to come back if not just to share what I'm currently obsessing over (and have been <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/themargaretfile/" target="_blank">pinning</a> like mad.)

I didn't even realize the <b>Emmy's</b> were actually happening until circa a few hours ago (I don't have a TV so it's not <i>that</i> surprising) and while I could use this space here to rant about how so fucking boring award show red carpets have become (<i>best dressed/worst dressed</i> <i>snore</i>), I'd rather dream about an outfit that I could only imagine walking at the LA-award show circuit.

<br />
Acting as a one woman incubus for the viral plague (<i>JK, but not really; *sniffle*</i>) I've spent a considerable amount of time these past few days going back and forth to my bathroom (<i>why I don't just bring the tissue box into my room, I'm still not sure</i>) and let's just say after too many hours of that combined with a massive <a href="http://the-margaret-files.blogspot.com/2013/09/lets-talk-about-pins-baby.html" target="_blank">Pin Binge</a>, I had an epiphany about my home priorities. Here goes: the majority of my day is spent at work (<i>not perusing Instagram <u>all</u> day</i>) and the little time that I <i>am</i> at home, it's spent either in the bathroom or at my vanity getting ready in the morning, or taking a deliciously long bath or shower before I crawl into bed. Now, that's a lot of time in my minuscule excuse for a bathroom (<i>hey, it has a window!</i>) so what's the harm on splurging on a bathroom accessory that makes everything that much more lovely? Enter: the <a href="http://www.horchow.com/p/Missoni-Home-Homer-Bath-Towels/cprod94610012/?eVar4=You%20May%20Also%20Like" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Missoni bath towel</a>. You will be mine someday, and you <i>will</i> love whatever bathroom I put you in. File as Italian dreams.<br />

Let's talk about the <b>Pin Binge</b> I've been on recently. <i>Like</i> <i>really</i>, I feel like I need to join a support group for pin sinners. But what can I say? It's the perfect place to store all my future plans (<i>and by that I mean travel mostly</i>) not to mention where I can seed endless amounts of inspo for work and other projects. I've fallen into the hole that is Pinterest and I don't want to get out. File as 12 steps.<br />

For the first time in about 4 weeks (hence the hiatus), I've got my own apartment all to myself with no guests, no itineraries and absolutely nothing to do. <i>Absofuckinglutely nothing to do</i>. In the meantime while I recoup from what was an awesomely amazing month and a half, I feel compelled to share a few end of summer inspo images that I had no idea what to do with. File as all over the place.<br />

<b>Confession</b>: I used to constantly make fun of one of my closest friends (<i>#sorrynotsorry</i>) for wearing his stinky Birkenstocks circa high school with literally every outfit and to places where sandals are definitely not considered shoes (<i>at least for dudes</i>) until I shamed him so much that he was compelled to change into a less offensive shoe when he was around me. Fast forward a few years later, and I'm totally lusting for a pair of Birks of my own. (<i>Trust me, he was the first to know of this new obsession as well as the first to support me.</i>). And<i> </i>with the new ugly shoe resurgence (<a href="http://www.refinery29.com/2013/06/48781/ugly-shoes" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><i>thanks Refinery 29 for this article</i></a>) I'm feeling like I'm definitely not alone in the universe. So adding to my <a href="http://the-margaret-files.blogspot.com/2013/08/grunge-is-good.html" target="_blank">grunge wishlist</a> will have to be a pair of black on black stocks. Now if only I had the modern Santa Monica compound to go with it - aren't they one and the same? File as one day.<br />
<br />
<i>UPDATE: Stop the presses, even <a href="http://theglitterguide.com/2013/08/14/on-our-radar-birkenstocks/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">more support of Birkenstocks</a> has emerged!! ...feeling a little behind the trend at this moment. But really, I don't give two hoots. Hashtag time to go shopping.</i><br />
