because i am the most indecisive person ever

I changed the blog up again last night!!! And I know what you're thinking, Brooke didn't you just change it a little bit ago?! The answer is yes, I had. But here is the deal: I am not sure why I even picked the other layout in the first place. Yes, it was super cute and crisp, but it had pink on it... I don't even like the color pink. It was just too girly for me. Do you ever finally commit to a decision and then know right away it was probably the wrong one.  Yeahhh, that was my last blog layout.

When I was debating last time it was between the old template and this new one and as soon as I purchased the pink one I knew I would regret it.... and I did. At least once a week I would go back and look at this pretty black and white design and think to myself, Gee self, that's the one you should have picked. So I finally gave in last night and I am super happy I did.

Good news is, I think this one is here to stay for a long little while. My girl, Kelly, at Pink + Lola designed this template too and it was only $25.00 on her Etsy shop.  I mean really, you can't say no to those prices!

This decision process got me thinking about how indecisive I can be and how much the ManFriend hates it. You can ask Bradley he can't stand the fact that I can never make up my mind. Our conversations often times go like this:

Bradley:  Brooke, what do you want for dinner? 'I don't care,' is not an option.
Brooke: Oh, I don't know. It doesn't matter to me.... (see what I did there, I didn't say 'I don't care')
Bradley: You are horrible at making decisions. I want a new girlfriend. 

Bradley: Brooke, what do you want to do today? 
Brooke: I am up for anything, you decide. 
Bradley: Uggggggh. FIFA it is then.

I have also noticed, my indecisiveness does not discriminate on the size of the decision.  It can be something as big as what my next car should be or where my next apartment should be to something as small as how I should cut my hair or whether we should have chicken or beef for dinner.

I don't know why, but I just have a really hard time committing to him things.  Sometimes, it is because I honestly don't have a preference, while other times it is because I am afraid I will regret the choice I made.  Probably not the best way to approach life, but what are you going to do?!

Either way, I am happy with this new layout even if it took a little while to get here! We'll have to see how long it lasts :)

Tuesday Tunesday + New Design

Everyone - come see how good I look my blog looks!!!!

She got a face life yesterday. Kelly from Pink + Lola hooked me up with a super affordable and crisp, pre-made template for my blog and it makes me happy :) Plus, it was actually easy to install it on my own - which is saying something, because I am by no means tech savvy when it comes html coding and whatnot. I hate clutter and this blog design really cleans everything up, as well as puts all my social media outlets all in one tidy area so it is super easy to hop on over and follow me on Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram, and Bloglovin' now.

The only thing I may change is the pink color, but for now I am enjoying the touch of girly - as long as I tell myself it is more coral than pink it's not even a little bit coral, I know! Anyway, if you're looking for a new blog design for a great price head on over to Pink + Lola.


And now let's enjoy some music shall we?!


Jamestown Revival :: Fur Coat Blues
First World Problem Blues as they call it.  Also, check out the stache on the blondie. #epic




Lewis Watson :: Sink Or Swim 
This little youngin' reminds me of a baby Ed Sheeran or something precious like that.




Jessie Ware :: Wildest Moments
Mark my words: Jessie Ware is going to be one of the next big things to come out of the UK.  I mean she even makes singing in a cab sound good.




CHVRCHES :: Recover
Bands are getting smart these days.  Take CHVRCHES, it's actually pronounced 'churches', but they spell it with a V so it is easy to find when you search on google. Plus, they are Scottish Electropop and that's just cool.




The Deep Dark Woods :: Ballad of Frank Dupree 
Going to be honest with you, this song is long.  Like 10 mins long, but don't let that scare you off.  It's one of those songs that's so enjoyable you don't even notice the length. Plus, the guy that plays the keyboard is pretty badass.




Allen Stone :: Celebrate Tonight 
I can't say enough good things about Allen Stone.  He is just so fantastic live even if he is a goof ball.  Here is his latest music video that just aired yesterday. Get it while it's hot! 





Thoa & The Get Down Stay Down :: Holy Roller 
I want love and the aftermath. Love those lyrics. I think this song is going to be right up Creshea's alley.





Tootles!
