what are you up to? anything fun? my son and i are hanging out later, looking veeeery forward to chill time with him and catching up. i'm devouring this book series lately, on to another one this weekend.(sooo good!). i'm on the hunt for some quiet pillow patterns for my bedroom. these are kind of soothing, these are a top pick too.

i plan on putting my feet up a bit this weekend, tasting my coffee and sleeping in. i hope that your weekend is everything you want it to be! and it's friday saturday, so some fun finds from around the world wide web:

a gorgeous kimono jumpsuit.

rattan handbag love.

this bedroom just looks so inviting to me.

in the market for vintage lighting? how about these 1950's italian sconces.

vacation inspiration.

a summer on the go highlighter.

& i've been into very shiny things lately fashion-wise too, so of course i want this.

the secret to the best ice cream sandwiches (plus her writing is just the best!).

how beautiful for summer outdoor entertaining!

would be pretty sitting on this.

wanting a set of these wooden coffee cups.

this step table lamp.

modern for magazines.

i'm not big into clocks, but this one is clean and unobtrusive.

for the kitchen (or for making amazing cheese boards!).

a veeeery cool commercial space.

pretty in pink.

still on the hunt for a unique summer outdoor seating collection? i pick this.

fab find, this danish home collection.

i'll take one of everything.

this just makes me smile.

enjoy!

playing with words

liking these snippets saved from pinterest text boards, just for fun...

enjoy!

artist feature: mark borthwick

one of the things that i love playing with the most when it comes to apps like instagram is light. so speaking to that, i'm completely inspired today by the dreamy color splashed photography of mark borthwick...

how about you? do you love playing with light filters too? there is something magical about the way light transforms a scene or setting. i love this today. enjoy!

savoring summer

10 luxurious ways to savor summer outside...and amazing higher end company finds to boot.

if you are entertaining or hosting an amazing summer social, i've rounded up some really fabulous pieces, summer outdoor wow tables and seating, from classic to downright sleek and modern.

images 4 & 5 light up (what?!)...so imagine your landscaped lawn leading out to a farm, or the ocean or any one of these carefully placed in a commercial swanky cocktail setting?! so fun! and there is something so special about summer in white. don't you think? enjoy!

having myself a quiet sunday morning. feeling ryan adams, acoustic guitar music and dancing around the house to all of it...

what are you up to? anything fun? i'm in the mood to try some new summer recipes, (see some below) i get in a rut eating the same meals, feel like branching out! i also just signed up for netflix, so i have a feeling i'll be binge watching my favorite show.

in between that i hope to finish this book (if you are in the market for a juicy summer reading series, this guy is legit! you can't stop reading), i'll be looking for a new summer wine and sleeeeeeeping in.

and it's friday saturday, so some fun finds from around the world wide web:

loving this basket bag.

might try this fresh ginger lemonade recipe this weekend.

a wow barrette.

would mix these & these all over a summer cottage.

serious summer skirt love. see how it looks on her too.

now this is camping.

this before & after!

a too cool stool. and that rug!

this stool too (and it's on sale!).

this summer i've been on a serious rhubarb kick, so this looks delish!

i'd also like to try grilling lettuce!

this entrance, that door color.

these leopard sheets are just so fun.

complete white wow.

a sleek floor lamp.

a cool coffee travel kit.

i went to newport recently and had THE best cheese board i've possibly ever had, here. would love to recreate it on my own, on this.

it's been a grey week in my part of the world but sun is on the horizon, yes! sunday might be a swimming/beach day for me. i love swimming in the ocean in the summer months, as much as i can. there is something transformative about it, it revives me somehow.

i'm also on the hunt for some new planters. i have plants outgrowing current pots but i'm picky, i like finding out of the ordinary planters. are you the same? in between that i'll be playing with my new hair cut, which went something like this! i love it! hey, have yourself a fun weekend!

and it's friday saturday, so some fun finds from around the world wide web:

a beautiful installation.

pretty in black and white.

how fun is this rose bun cuff?

serious about this coffee table. just so gorgeous!

dreamy interior styling.

delish!

and i guess this is for real...but really reminds me of this.

sconce love (and such a great price!).

these antonio acrylic chairs are amazing.

would be so beautiful for outdoor entertaining on a summer night.

just bought these tailored summer shorts in light birch.

loving this dining table for small spaces.

wonderfully dramatic gold earrings.

an impressive new tile line coming to out soon.

this tepee chair in blush looks so comfy.

6 eye catching restaurants.

these colors for summer.

veeeery into this clay color lately so i'm loving this maxi dress.

this pinecone table lamp.

has to be one of the most amazing bathroom makeovers. (check out the slide with the ceiling fan!)

oh & i listened to a great podcast on the train this week. about nyc principal ballet dancer wendy whelan of her 30 year career and about retiring from such a visible position. it speaks to identity, longevity, the rarity of knowing what you were meant to do.
