things i saw, things i love
It’s been awhile since I’ve done one of these posts! It’s been a long month and we’ve still got another two weeks to go until June! I have been itching for the sun and warmth to come back. I’m done with being cold and I’m more than done with being wet. This post is inspired by the summer girl in me and here’s to hoping 70 degrees comes soon!
How wonderful is this summer shack? I love it! I can just imagine waking up to the warm sunshine, heading out to catch the morning rays. Yes, please. Photo from HousetoHome.
Seeing this bike basket really makes me wish I had a bike. I’ve been having this vision of me on a bike for awhile now. It’s more of a yearning really. Me, biking along the Charles, picnic basket all packet, flowers aplenty. Hair blowing in the wind and the weather is glorious. Maybe one day. One day…….. Via StyleMePretty.
Speaking of bicycles, I came across this idea on Pinterest. How utterly ADORABLE is this idea for a wedding guest book? It’s a fingerprint balloon kit by Etsy shop owner Bluedetoi. When I get married I will have this. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this idea. Precious!!!
Oh HEY! Why not one more bicycle photo! The girl’s obsessed, what’ya going to do? I love the ensemble of pictures here, inspired by the bright spring colors by Jessica Tierney Designs. So happy. And yes, I’ll have some of that ice cream. Please and thank you.
Hello, yellow dress. You are so cute and summery! I would love to pair this with a navy blue cardigan. Seen and loved at eShakti.
My heart smiled when I saw this picture over at Blissful Mediocrity. It reminds me of simpler times and the freedom of summer. So special.
And lastly, here’s a brilliant idea for summer. Raspberry beer cocktail. I’ll have some of that. I love the chalkboard glasses too!
Here’s the recipe:
3/4 cup fresh raspberries*
3 1/2 (12-oz.) bottles beer, chilled
1 (12-oz.) container frozen raspberry lemonade concentrate, thawed
1/2 cup vodka
Have a great weekend!!!
Fabulous
I spotted this fabulous dress in the J.crew window on Greenwich Ave this weekend and felt my heart skip a beat. I’m totally in love with the pattern and color and fabric! Hello, perfect summer fancy! I, of course, skittered my little behind inside the store to try and get my hands on this beauty, only to discover they were out of my size and also out of my price range (no mystery there, but like I always say, a girl can dream).
Perhaps if wishes really do come true this dress will be in my closet at some point in the near future.
LOVE IT.

Isn’t this sweater precious?
This sweater is reason # 89 why I love twitter. One day I was just tweeting along, reading people’s tweets here and there and everywhere and the next thing I knew, this sweater was MINE.
Allllll mine.
Jane from Simple Pretty was having a tag sale and was advertising via her twitter account. She posts clothes and other items through a special blog she has created: Simple Pretty Tag Sale, and it’s from this blogspot that she sells her clothes. Quite a novel idea actually, and she’s got enough followers that this method works.
I should really do this.
I have waaaaaay too many clothes.
Cardigans are specifically my downfall.
I should count how many I have. It would probably make us all sick.
Regardless of how many cardigans I currently own, I went and bought Jane’s cashmere cardigan off her tag sale blog. Because I just plain and simple couldn’t help myself. And although I didn’t really need another cardigan, technically, this golden cashmere beauty was too good to pass up.
So pass it up I didn’t, and happily, it now belongs to me:
I LOVE it. Thanks, Jane!!
