While I am originally from the Midwest I am a nomad by nature. A wanderer & a drifter, traveling through space & time searching for inspiration. I rove through it all wearing ruby slippers just in case I happen to stumble upon a yellow brick road. The inspiring images, video, and text that I collect during my travels will be displayed here with each day representing a new “theme”. Enjoy, but don’t wander off too far because I hope we meet again soon. Your dear friend, Melanie -Twitter. -Flickr. -Youtube. -Pinterest. -Platinum Blonde Life (Fashion & Beauty Blog). -Formspring. -One Girl Show (My Art Blog) -Deviant Art Note about the images here: I make every attempt to credit the original source of all images illustrations & photos featured here with click through links. Some have been posted from other blogs, in which case the blog that previously posted the image may be credited. P.S. This is true even for my own images which typically link directly back to my flickr or deviant art accounts.
