Want an excuse to buy yourself flowers?

February 19, 2013

I'm SO not a morning person. I seriously snooze my alarm no less than 5 times every weekday morning. If there is alarm on the weekends (sacrilege!) it gets the same amount of snooze button loving. I was even diagnosed with a sleep disorder (posted here) which validated years of feeling like I was a crazy hypochondriac because I never feel rested when I wake up. Long story short, I hate mornings.

Did you know that research was conducted by the smart folks at Harvard that fresh flowers in your home can reduce anxiety and improve your mood, particularly in those who wouldn't categorise themselves as 'morning people'. Hello! I think I need some more flowers!

Currently i'm obsessed with orange roses. I've never liked orange much but for the last few months every time i've seen orange roses i've had to buy them...


 and that's my perfect segway into this week's list for the 52 List Project! 



What are your favourite flowers? Tell me in the comments!

  5. Hey girl! I followed you awhile back from For Lauren and Lauren and just wanted to say hi! The morning alarm situation made me giggle but also made me want to read your sleep disorder post because I never feel rested when I wake up either. Ever. I have been wanting to get fresh flowers for so long and just haven't spent the money on them. Now you made me really want some! Yours are so pretty. My favorite flowers are Tulips!
