Greystone Mansion Beverly Hills



I am rich. It doesn't have a thing to do with money. Being rich is a state of mind and I have a sky mentality because that's where I plan to leave my footprint.  I think rich experiences make life taste like dessert on a gold plate with a platinum fork. I live every day like its my birthday.  I love beautiful places and positive people. If you are a well wisher and genuine, we can be friends:-)
I expose my son to all that life has to offer and let him look through my rainbow colored glasses and drink from my cup that overflows with infinite possibilities. it is never to early to teach a child the importance of big dreams. I recently had an opportunity to spend the day at the Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills.  I don't turn down opportunities to be in amazing settings and what a splendid time I had!
There are lots of photos because the scenery and this type of beauty needs to be documented. I hope you enjoy the photos. What are some of your favorite scenic spots? 

Every where my foot treads...

Anywhere worth going usually requires a climb





Everything is within your reach, but sometimes you 
have to just go get it

Sometimes I strut like there's music playing

What the world needs now and can never have enough of is love, sweet love.

Sometimes you don't know the path until you start walking

I love a pretty maxi dress and they are so comfortable. A blog buddy of mine Fashion  du Jour  said that the maxi dress is like the swiss army knife of  fashion. I could not agree more:-) Do you like maxi dresses?



Pretty shiny and sparkly. I love these bracelets! Nothing like a little sparkle. Do you agree?



I just want to spread my wings


I absolutely love these earrings by Mimi Boutique. Gorgeous and so versatile I can wear them with a variety of ensembles.
Dress: System Boutique, Shoes: Private Boutique, Earrings: Gifted by Mimi Boutique, Bracelets: Los Angeles Fashion District





Even with my sunglasses on, the sun is still shining boldly and brightly. You and I are like that too. When you bring light, people can try, but they cant put a shade over you. You will still shine.


You might get tired, but God will renew your strength

There is something good around the corner. I feel it...


Have an amazing day!

  1. Beautiful setting.

    I love maxi dresses and I love the way you look in your selection. I don't think I could wear it because of the plunging neckline and the backless aspect but it does look FABULOUS on you. I love your sandals too.
