Sunday Style File: Now & Later


Sundays are meant to be happy, comfortable, relaxing. It starts with what you throw on in the morning. The key is to have attractive "comfort clothes". That way there is no decision over whether to dress cute & uncomfortable vs comfy & slobby.
splendid foldover leggings - these!! perfect for chilly mornings
david galan wristlet - really the white, too
wildfox sweatshirt - perfectly thin, slouchy, & gently worn looking
laundry room bleached jean shorts - where now while it's hot

Today we went to the beach and then all came home and took naps. It was delightful. Now I'm working on getting some things done and organized to start the week, aka a lot of laundry.

Her Style


This street style photo caught my eye hard. Those lace up booties seal the whole deal for me. My mind has kind of switched gears and is now focused on fall fashion. I'm finding that the things I'm scooping up are of the long sleeves and pants variety. Now I need some fresh booties.

These BE & D lace up booties are most definitely my favorite (the black pair, too), with these Sorel booties and these Minnetonkas following closely behind.

Happy Friday!

Drapery Tales


Here at the new house (though we've been here a year so I suppose I can't call it new anymore) I still need window treatments on a lot of our windows. I totally love roman shades, I do, but I really love that there are so many ready made pretty drapes available. Plus they look really good, open or pulled closed. Here are some of my favorite store bought options.

These mantadia curtains are one of my most favorites. Such a custom look.


Here's a look at them in another space.


These navy floral curtains add good pattern to a space...


They're pretty in yellow, too.


Love these vintage style speckled blooms drapes, as seen in Nicole's house.


These fog chevron panels are great if you want to allow a lot of light in and bring in a little pattern.

Velvet drapes are soft and cancel out a lot of light. Here are the velvet curtains that we put up in Fletcher's room.


And I will never ever tire of these french tassel drapes. Only problem is choosing a favorite color.


Pretty windows. Word.

I'm On Keep


I'm a Keeper! Are you? Wondering what it is? It's the new visual marketplace for happy & productive shopping. It's pretty much just like Pinterest, except you "keep" things instead of "pin" them. And the best part - it's based totally on shopping. Yep.

I've been busy creating boutiques based around my favorite things like fashion, furniture, art...



Keep is soooo good for me b/c as much as I would like to blog about everything that I love, I can't. Keep allows me to organize all my favorites in one easy spot just by clicking "keep it" in my toolbar (the process is just like pinterest). So you can follow along and see what I'm loving, too

I hope you will come join! The Keep curators are top notch and find the most unique and awesome things (that you can actually easily buy). Come find me on Keep HERE.
