Whimsical bath


I love the whimsical feel in this bath.  The sink put me over the edge.  I think that little bit of softness makes this room feel so great.  Wishing you a wonderful Saturday!  Is it really fall?  I am not so sure here in California it is 90 today.

feeling fall in greige...








This space makes me think of fall with the warm fire burning and the soft colors of their eclectic mix it is just perfection!  This is the home of Todd Fiscus and Rob Dailey in Texas.  I have seen some pretty amazing homes from Texas although I have never been.  I really love how this home mixes old and new with ease and elegance. 

For more on their home visit here.

greige love... in a Citroen




Would this not be amazing to drive through the countryside with the top open and a fabulous picnic in the trunk?  I can just imagine it!  


How is the week going so far~ it has been quite busy here but I am excited for a fun girls weekend, breakfast with friends and some time to relax and maybe do a little shopping for things I really don't need.  Maybe even finish the book I am reading.

Oh and there were a few questions from yesterdays lifestyle board- just drop me an email and I will point you where you need to be...

Farm to table {a wonderful evening}



On Saturday I was lucky enough to attend a wonderful dinner hosted by Andrea @ French Basketeer.  It was a beautiful evening with perfect weather and an amazing meal.  We were welcomed by the candle lit stairway and walked into the heart of the space, a covered loggia.  Everything was just perfect from the rosemary in the ice buckets (I will be using that one thank you very much!) to the singer who entertained us for the evening.  


A beautiful table with vintage dishes, silverware and linens.




 It is all in the details...  the water bottles were to die for!  These are the Christian Lacroix glass bottles for Evian. 











Andrea made a wonderful meal that I am still telling my family about.  I must make that Burrata with peach and tomato.  


I will say that the desert table was my next favorite.  Each creation was a wonderful temptress, and the display was really perfection.


It was so perfect to get a chance to talk with Andrea after the meal and meet her sweet little babies.  Andrea, it was beautiful and the food was fantastic, thank you for including me!   

I love a good party and this one was filled with a great group, great food and in a beautiful setting.  I think that each time we visit with another we have the opportunity to learn so much and take a bit of that experience along with us to share with others. It is also an amazing thing to meet people through blogging and be invited into their lives and homes in such a special way, who would have guessed what a small world this has become.

John Derian in Cape Cod













What a wonderful holiday retreat!  Simple and clean with a great mix of vintage in each space.  I love the natural state of the walls and the vintage textiles.  I hope you are getting ready to enjoy the long weekend with some fun activities!  We have a few parties to attend so it should be a great mix of just hanging out and visiting with friends and family.

Collected office...




As the holiday weekend approaches it is all I can do to keep myself thinking about work..  This little office would be filled with too many distractions but it is pretty amazing!  I love the mix and match and all of the great vintage pieces.

What are your plans for the long weekend?

Bits of Blue..










It can be a really good feeling to get a project on the side of the bar that is completed.  Last week I spent most of my time running around finishing this and 4 other projects up.  These are a few of my favorite views from this one.  I love the splashes of blue even if I cannot commit to a color myself, I truly deeply love this blue.  This project was really fun to mix in the vintage details here and there giving it a little bit more of an eclectic feeling.

I hope you are looking forward to a wonderful new week - I know I am.  There are a lot of finishing details for behind the scenes and new projects to begin!
