Aerin recalls how her grandmother truly believed in the importance of following your dream and working hard to achieve it. This quote, in particular, from the cosmetics maven is exactly the type of motivation needed on a Monday: </div><div style="text-align: center;">“Whatever you do, do it well with dedication and passion.” </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhGwX9JqGsJgzQMPh2EgKmpZxfM1AvSNlWuDKwdZo60Y6xeXCwYEM7quBEwy9M57fop_1KFTTEXOUt-QF69mF1oCuURva16iPlM9XNOG_Zjzad2zV9pbgqSQu2cRrri_JQh3ZbFvoSJ8U/s1600/estee_hero21.jpg" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhS8QGIRXzwWAlmkAzcPnJdUqyonvrV8XFMdt6Q5-dTKHt8kZtvUG7_Edou4oL510913kskQtsM6fs-KF8yub8AQlwjz5bGfnMa23B5Za3IJQ1SGdhGZPV34SOhWhEu79BeTaLnKRuFmF0/s1600/Picture+675.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhS8QGIRXzwWAlmkAzcPnJdUqyonvrV8XFMdt6Q5-dTKHt8kZtvUG7_Edou4oL510913kskQtsM6fs-KF8yub8AQlwjz5bGfnMa23B5Za3IJQ1SGdhGZPV34SOhWhEu79BeTaLnKRuFmF0/s1600/Picture+675.png" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiePPzSsGY4BLbO2vqSF2U1_CgBGpku6jjBwXwGCO6RWT2TMMA2rIX99QHkUcnHFWoS4lUcOFsSB6sm_ZUJQ55mfQq580c8Dk07J2KkyWnXzqJN5kt2CGxCjfHBPwlXk6pby3U0djvoOSQ/s1600/Picture+677.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiePPzSsGY4BLbO2vqSF2U1_CgBGpku6jjBwXwGCO6RWT2TMMA2rIX99QHkUcnHFWoS4lUcOFsSB6sm_ZUJQ55mfQq580c8Dk07J2KkyWnXzqJN5kt2CGxCjfHBPwlXk6pby3U0djvoOSQ/s1600/Picture+677.png" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhG96n-cAdmDzD1aCMLNZuX4RBa-vdjC1r-86z-yCygfitTADqV4ODPutB3gVwvujH7F_OQYUXsouWDz6hv180XqEP5tuWDJgHmorf9BQn8r4qSYNTbD6MF6eLQotvbpmPPQabPpWMClAc/s1600/Picture+676.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhG96n-cAdmDzD1aCMLNZuX4RBa-vdjC1r-86z-yCygfitTADqV4ODPutB3gVwvujH7F_OQYUXsouWDz6hv180XqEP5tuWDJgHmorf9BQn8r4qSYNTbD6MF6eLQotvbpmPPQabPpWMClAc/s1600/Picture+676.png" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFLkDKjxkKjDkEGr_8ElSdngjt-Zbw_980HjYVUMNf_Zs5D7ycWOZWkl4ifjXeS9tm6few-Qs-QrbVixZy1FpU7BvqLEBznwiXC4kXBT2ghL3UaoPColA6DcDPdGQ0aK3Rl3fJxuYDjLQ/s1600/simplifying.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFLkDKjxkKjDkEGr_8ElSdngjt-Zbw_980HjYVUMNf_Zs5D7ycWOZWkl4ifjXeS9tm6few-Qs-QrbVixZy1FpU7BvqLEBznwiXC4kXBT2ghL3UaoPColA6DcDPdGQ0aK3Rl3fJxuYDjLQ/s1600/simplifying.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPqvanXio2PmQFBsKoqla_LML-jFzxaOoWXtwcU6rlim3jH2Afbz_5_CwpjSXbRNCbnVWisZu-RM6TS8Cf9SP8tnrCmRORq5CDlGu36y6FQK9QFLmF4bqneXnpVUmGDMXgYS_x6NWtutA/s1600/new_home_slider.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPqvanXio2PmQFBsKoqla_LML-jFzxaOoWXtwcU6rlim3jH2Afbz_5_CwpjSXbRNCbnVWisZu-RM6TS8Cf9SP8tnrCmRORq5CDlGu36y6FQK9QFLmF4bqneXnpVUmGDMXgYS_x6NWtutA/s1600/new_home_slider.jpg" /></a></div></div>

For me, it's really more of a gut reaction, and even this can change quite often.  However, there are some style constants in my life. I know without a doubt that I prefer white kitchens, regardless of the actual design era it's designed in.  I love the clean, pristine calm that only a white kitchen can deliver.  Of course I can appreciate other types and colors in kitchens when done well...I just know for my life, a white kitchen works best.  And, while it's a pretty broad category, maybe even a stretch...it's one of the few decor aspects that I can confidently claim without feeling fickle or waffling, ever.
