Weekend Recap

We had friends in town from San Fran this weekend so we did a lot of running around, eating and enjoying the beautiful summer weather.
In preparation for our guests I got some stuff done around the house finally. Including a little styling for our bookshelves with my new goodies from Zhush (gold urchin and white buddha)
 How gorgeous is that water? It was turquoise on Saturday. Looks like the Caribbean with that one little boat out there on the left.

Totally in love with this little tree. Its call Rose of Sharon and it only blooms once a year in August, but its well worth it when it does. The bright purple flowers are ridiculous.  

When on an evening boat cruise through some serious clouds.

I can’t believe how quickly summer is going by. In the next four weeks we have a wedding in Colorado, a weekend in Michigan with family and a week long trip to the Greek Islands that I am counting down the seconds to!

Loving this makeover project from HGTV Magazine that Jamie Meares (of Furbish fame) did. Its gorgeous. So fun and colorful (image above)

This little PJ set is exactly what I want right now. Pajamas have never been something I’ve invested in, but I think I need to start.
Jessie’s new tumblr is too fun to get lost in. Music, interiors, and lots of pretty.

Erin’s birthday post on the things she needs vs the things she wants hit a chord with me. There is always so much to want, but much more important things to need.

These peeks into Paula’s Charleston home are gorgeous. So liveable but still so put together. I love the look.

Smitten Kitchen is a relatively new-to-me food blog that I have gotten completely lost in. I love discovering new recipes.
