how precious is this dress? the color, the floral, the gingham, the full skirt. i just love it!
i love how simple yet how super cool this necklace is. and the color makes me so happy.
oh my gosh, i really want these shoes. like really really really.
what a perfect summer dress! the colors and embroidery are so pretty. i want to wear this to a picnic on the beach!
i love lightweight, summer scarves. and i love this heart print. and bonus! it is under $20. this will be mine!

i couldn't choose between these two salads, so i had to share them both. find lindsay's recipe here and laurie's here. yum and yum! i will be making both of these in the very near future!

| peter pan collar heart dress |
this dress epitomizes most things i love in a dress. cute collar, bright color, whimsical print, cinched waist. it's all there! so adorable! oh, and did i mention it's under $30?
 |
| mason jar 3 in 1 |
as i'm on the hunt for wedding decor, these popped onto my screen like they were meant for me. i love how clean they look with the fitted wire, and i love how you can put flowers in them, too. i might need to have these!
 |
| gray chevron hobo purse |
it's like the world's cutest skirt with pockets, except it's a purse, and i love it!!
 |
| forget you nude sandals |
again, with weddings on my mind, i found these beauties. (secret, i already have my shoes), but these would be perfect for my sisters to wear!
 |
| 1950s little black dress |
quite the opposite of my first pick, but equally as lovely! i love the simple details and the beautiful shape of this dress.

we had our inaugural scamp trip last weekend for our annual father's day camping trip. the kids had a long day playing outside, and i couldn't help but snap this adorable picture of them sleeping. this was about three hours before henry promptly fell off the top bunk. (here's another pic of where chris and i sleep, or where we eat if it's raining...but normally we leave it as a bed. the sheep is beatrice, our scamp mascot.)

hannah, of tattoos and pearls, is the best. she is funny and honest and witty, and i love her style. this particular post is her in her fabulous new harem pants. i loved them so much, i was inspired to hunt for a pair myself. and i found a pair last night!! yay! thanks for the inspiration (and the daily laughs from reading your blog), hannah!
what are you loving this week?

I need that vintage floral dress!... and an arnold palmer (they really are the best drinks in the summer!).
ReplyDeleteThose lights would be great at a wedding. Love them!
ReplyDeleteso many things to love! : ) I really like that floral dress, the heart scarf and the chevron bag!
ReplyDeleteYou guys rock! I love those wedges and the little lights. I love everything really on this post and it is making me want to shop!
ReplyDeleteWant. Those. Shoes.
ReplyDeleteI love your things-that-I-am-loving posts; they feel like a peek into your closet, which, I think, is secretly one of the top reasons people read blogs: closet peeking. :)

The Oxford wedges are PERFECT! Id also like to have the haircut on the girl with the purple heart dress :)
ReplyDeleteFirst off- last night I made an amazing fruit salad (tooting my own horn here) with mango in it. So.good. I may have already eaten all of my fruit salad. Better than a tub of ice cream I guess.
ReplyDeleteSecond off- Thank you SO much for the blog love! I can't wait to see you in your harem pants. Post soon please! I will try to continue bringing the laughs.:)
Hannah Tattoos and Pearls
OK that vintage dress is gorgeous, and LOVE the chevron bag! And I've been drinking 1/2 lemonade 1/2 iced tea like nobody's business - so refreshing!

I love that black dress. Too bad the vintage sizing is soooo tricky!
ReplyDeletethat dress is lovely. It it was just a tad bigger (and I had a tad more money in my wallet) I would totally scoop it up
ReplyDeleteThat heart print scarf and mason jars are so pretty. I also love that line about how you are extra smitten with your husband this week. So sweet!
ReplyDelete--TS

So many good things in one post! First off, mango is my favorite fruit, hands down, second off, that first vintage floral dress is perfection! xx
ReplyDeleteOoooh, am loving all the dresses! How do you find those things on Etsy? Is it just a random search or do you search for something specific!? Am intrigued!
ReplyDeleteThat scarf is very pretty. And it looks like you've got a lot to love!
ReplyDeleteDon't feel guilty taking photos like that, my mom made a whole pile from me and my brother's nap times when we were little. I still remember this one photo where we were all snoozing during a ride home. Probably the last time I feel asleep in a car, I cant' seem to do it these days. I tried to take naps during long trips to Charleston, but something always keeps me awake.
ReplyDeleteoh the instas are always my fave! :) the nightly family walks sound heavenly. i want the embroidered dress & the gold heels, sigh. somebody's going to have a pretty wedding.
ReplyDeleteThis is always one of my favorite features of you blog--and worn out, but sleeping kids do inspire affection don't they?
ReplyDeleteI love the wedges and the black dress! <3
ReplyDeleteQuite A Looker
I love everything about this entire post. Finally getting to see the scamp inside is what made my day. I love the bunks and the sweet curtain behind them. I want a trailer so bad but am still deciding the best way to go plus I have to take it easy on the husband's wallet for a bit. dawn suitcase vignettes xo
ReplyDeleteMy sister-in-law did those candles-in-mason-jars for her wedding, and hung a few of them in a tree where they had the ceremony. It was beautiful! They only last about 30 minutes though... the y get really hot in there and melt quickly, FYI.
