I’m not sure what it is this week, but I’m wild about neutrals at the moment. Maybe it’s this week’s real party features (here and here) that did it? Because both boast the most elegant of neutral color palettes while feeling beautifully festive and full of cheer. I’m also apparently crushing on polka dots and …

I’m not exaggerating even a touch when I say that July 4th is absolutely one of my most favorite days of the year. It’s something about the sunshine, the patriotic swaying of flags and the fireworks. Oh, the fireworks! It’s every bit a magical combination if you ask me. Not surprisingly, my pinning tendencies are …
If you were to ask me what my favorite way to spend my time is, I will always answer the same way. Quite simply put, it’s with no makeup on, dirty flip flop feet, cozied up next to a campfire by the lake with my best people. This is how I grew up. In a …
I have this odd relationship with shades of pink. See, sometimes I love pink like it’s my job. Other times, I really could leave it or take it…generally leave it. Lately I’ve been having a major pink and coral moment. It might be because I’m considering giving my desk a wash of glossy coral to …

Are you guys sick of hearing me complain about the weather yet? Because I’m getting sick of myself. I’m not usually one to bemoan Mother Nature, but seriously. It’s pushing mid-April and yesterday I was dodging snowflakes. Snowflakes, people. All of this to say, I probably shouldn’t be surprised that I’m pinning everything bright and …
Recently I’ve had all things nautical on my mind as I’ve been working on a few projects with a certain seaside vibe that I just love. And, well, rumor has it that spring may eventually show up and with it hopefully warm afternoons on the lake. Be sure to follow along on Pinterest for more …
With Easter this week I find myself pinning all kinds of pretty spring things. Flowers, cocktails, little bunny place cards. You know. All those spring essentials you can’t live without. In particular, this fresh citrusy cocktail with loads of grapefruit sounds pretty amazing for that first spring evening when it’s possible to dine al fresco. …

Do you ever have those moments where you realize you’re constantly drawn to (and pinning) the same colors over and over again? That’s happening for me right now. Blue and white. I’m all over it! I have always been particularly enamored with this classic pairing of colors, but lately it seems my love affair has …
This week it’s all I can do not to spend all of my time digging through the incredible photos of newly launched Entouriste. One of my closest friends, Ami of Elizabeth Anne Designs, brought her passion for travel to life with the most beautiful new travel site, designed from top to bottom to inspire you …
Over the past few years I’ve had a growing love affair with the chic, effortless look of all black and white design. Paired with a bold punch of graphic pattern?
