if we start a petition do you think she will show us some more???

check out a practical wedding today and get a little peek into east side bride's wedding, which in case you hadn't noticed is nowhere to be found on the internets. also in the little post are a few pretty amazing picks for hair adornments, that is if you can manage to take your eyes off of her and h-town.

i put brown sugar and cocoa in my coffee this morning


and can i say that it was wonderful? and when i say wonderful i mean maybe i am going to be doing this daily for a very long time.

new color obsessions ... and i mean OBSESSIONS

it happens to me a lot. i get a tickling for a particular combination of colors and all of a sudden my every day life is transformed. recently i had been really feeling the kellly green and dark grey ... but this weekend it changed, in the blink of an eye ...


hello my dear grey, bright blue and wee bit of red (um i guess this post should have made me realize that things were changing). i have been seriously thinking about painting our currently non-existent dining room chairs in a blue just a bit darker than the one above, but then toggle back and forth between grey and chalkboard paint as well. oh the choices. maybe i will just go ahead and change ppp's colors and call it a day?

sneaker love

i am a sneaker girl deep down and forever. i love sneakers ... LOVE them. i guess i love all sorts of shoes, but really it is a good pair of sneakers that will hold my attention and be the receivers of most of my admiration and shoe time. so when i came across these you can imagine how excited i was.


how i would love to have either pair for my endless days of spring ... put them together with a sun dress and call it a day. yes please, i do think that i would like that. now if only they would appear on the website!

the nike liberty blazer supposedly available here ...

have a lovely weekend my dears.


mas and i are spending the weekend completing the second course (out of three) for our sailing certification program. woohoo. i do kinda wish that the weather was a bit on the warmer side as the ocean isn't as forgiving as the land ... but it being february and all, i won't complain.

happy days to all of you and i will see you monday. a few click worthy links below.

followed by a new blog discovery

gretchen mist

i just found a dead white spider in my favorite decorative branch and it kinda freaked me out. but then i also just found gretchen mist and she kinda made me happy. i love mixed media collages and anything landscape(ish). view her etsy shop here.
