dress up

Just love a reason to don a dress.
Kayce Hughes has a "dress up" challenge going on now.
I love this sort of challenge, a cool dress, a sweet sandal, sunglasses and a straw bag.
Are you up to the "dress up" challenge?
Take a look over here and tell me your favorite dress?

creating space

Would you like to create more space for HAPPINESS?
The secret is in giving room.
Sometimes all we have to do is make a little room.
Have you read this book?

Are you creating space in your life for happiness or are you suffocating it by hoarding or holding on to things that are taking up space?
Summer is a time for giving space and adding a little creativity.

medicine man and woman

For years my dear husband and I have been sharing one sink and one medicine cabinet.
I chose to have a his and hers sink and cabinet for our master bath.
I found them here.
I can't wait to have a his and hers sink!
Medicine man and woman.
Our vanity from here is a wall mounted floating one with under mount sinks and wall mounted faucets.
The bath is all white.
I even found a whimsical chandelier that looks like water drops.
I look forward to showing it to you in a few more weeks.

happy birthday seleta

Wishing our dear friend Seleta a beautiful birthday today. We know how she loves to rock all white and ride life with a little more fun, more fashion and always includes her family and friends in the fun! Stop here a wish Seleta a happy day. I was looking all over for an image of a gal all in white on a horse, so this pretty lady in the blue waters will have to suffice. After all she does live near the beach.

in the pink


Congrats to the "The Buzz" - randomly selected by my daughter from a slip of paper out of a hat! They chose "Pink Garden" (image above) from "Chez Jolly"
which suits these flower girls all the way!
Hope each of you have a beautiful weekend in the pink.

perk me up

Let's just say my friday was frisky!
My dog ran into my elbow when the plumber arrived. Ouch.
There is dust everywhere from the renovation along with boxes and an upside down home.
Feeling like I need an infusion of energy to stay the course so I have been
saving these images to give me a perk-me-up!
I am just crazy about the clear and cheerful colors of this art and no-calorie too.
Happy weekend dear people.
When things are frantic, what do you turn to for a perk-me-up?

are we there

Being one of seven, can you imagine family vacations and the many mouths spouting "Are we there yet?" I need a mug like this while I juggle this home renovation. Part of the journey is the fun of getting there.

How many times this summer have you been asked this question?

a piece of toast


How would you like to wake up to a piece of toast like this smiley one?
I am looking for a vintage toast holder to restore order to my incoming snail mail and a sundry of items, bills etc.
Love this brassy one too for my hubby's desk.
Letters stored like this. Everything in it's place.
Keys on a hook sure make it easy to find.
This one for storing photos and miscellaneous pieces of life.
toasting each of you for a happy day!

images 2, 4, 5 found here "This is Glamorous"

cool colours

if you were a colour, what would you be?
love all these shades of lovely greens and cool watery blues found over here.
I am gathering pretty shades for my home.

Monaco love

Monaco is all about love these days.
Did you see Princess Charlene?
I adored her dress, designed by Armani.
Congratulations to Prince Albert and Princess Charlene of Monaco.
Did you follow the wedding?
Best wishes to them both for a happy marriage.
My sister-in-law attended and I cannot wait to hear all about it.
