Spring with J.McLaughlin
Last Saturday I headed up to my girlfriends baby shower in Tampa – which was SO cute. I’m so happy for her! And afterwards, sweet Sara of (The Sara Magnolia) shot this fun look for J.McLaughlin. I am in love with this bamboo clutch. Definitely coming with me on our summer vacations. And the sleeveless […]
blue and white tablescape dreaming
I am loving my sisters wedding registry. It’s filled with blue and white, and I can hardly stand it. It’s a good time to be engaged! This color scheme for a tablescape seems so fitting for summer… and in my opinion, all of the time. I first discovered Aerin for William Sonoma on […]
Hostess gift giving guide
Now that my sisters three showers are all done, I thought I’d share some of the hostess gifts my sister, my mom, and I help pull together. We tried to tie in aspects of the shower theme into the gifts. Gift giving is something we all really enjoy, so we had a ton of fun putting together […]

Janie and Jack for Easter
{lamb photos by Nikki Duyn} It’s silly but I’ve been in love with lambs since birth. So about a month ago I posted on Facebook about my dream of the boys with lambs for Easter, and we got to see baby goats (which are so cute!). I became a little obsessed and called craigslist adds, […]

St. Augustine in 24 hours
Monday, Tuck and I rode up to St. Augustine for a photo shoot for Fall 2017 with one of our favorite companies — Bella Bliss. It was a fun kick off for his Spring Break! I missed this place so much. I actually went to Flagler College, which is across from the Casa Monica (where we […]
Disney during Spring break
On Tuesday I picked up tuck from school, and surprised him by telling him “we’re going to disney world”! Everyday tuck has a report with a couple categories, and you can get green, yellow or red lights. All school year, every day, he’s had all green lights. Sorry this sounds braggy, but I’m really proud […]

Before and After // DIY reupholster dining chairs
Back in February I stumbled upon these chairs, for $6.99(!!), and couldn’t pass them up! I had a few people request to see how they ended up. So here they are! After taking off the covers, with JBs electric screw driver, I used white lacquer spray paint. It took a lot of coats, and five cans. So about a […]

one last marrakech post
Taking you on one last Marrakech journey through some iphone photos (: So I know I did a whole post about Shopping in Marrakech. But I posted prematurely. We made friends with some locals and they gave me additional tips… after that, I was a bit of a shrew! Here’s some additional things I learned: […]
Easter dressing in Blue & White
{affiliate links are used in this post} I’m just starting to think about Easter around here. Something I usually do in February- because this is truly one of the BEST holidays there is. Jesus defeating death and giving us all eternal life, bunnies, spring baby animals, and big brunches with family. Hooray for Bunny season […]

Jemma El Fnaa by night. It’s so crazy there! busy is an understatement. Fun to watch it all from a rooftop. my cute friend danielle had this made custom for her, with a berber carpet in the back! It took about a day to finish, and fit her perfectly! we met some new local […]
le jardin majorelle
{top is old lilly pulitzer // pants are old nordstrom rack // sunglasses are h&m // shoes are target} Loved our afternoon at Yves Saint Laurent’s garden. This was the french painter, Jacques Majorelle’s home, but after his death it went to ruin. Yves Saint Laurent bought it just before it was to be bulldozed […]
kasbah du toubkal
On Friday we visited kasbah du toubkal, which gives you a pretty view of the atlas mountains. We rode mules up there for lunch and shopping. It was beautiful, even though we didn’t have a very clear day. The clouds would roll in and out, giving us glimpses of snow capped mountains. It was such […]
Afternoon at the Royal Mansour
Yesterday I decided I’d do the traditional moroccan treatment, a hammam. It is an hour long (or more) process of having someone scrub all the dead skin of you. Everyone we’ve met does it at least once a week. My skin definitely feels great after having it done yesterday. At the Royal Mansour! I’ve pretty much […]
shopping in marrakech
Shopping in Marrakech is a total and complete dream for someone like me. I love to shop, and I can’t ever explain why I like what I like, but it’s a total thrill to find things you’ve only dreamed of for a fraction of a price you’d get back home. I am basically the worst […]
