{falling for fall: mustard + gold}

. . . a weekend spent in the country and has become clear that leaves are falling and there's no turning back -- and everywhere, shades of mustard and gold . . .

{happy weekend!}

. . . this weekend is windswept hair and toes in the sand, picnics on the beach and the city behind us . . . ahead: the last golden days of summer . . .

Have a beautiful, beautiful weekend, everyone!

{happy june + links}

There's a feeling of promise in the air, intermingling -- between the hydrangeas, wisteria and lilacs -- with the softest, faintest scent of blossoming perfume . . .

Happy June!

{spent daydreaming}

Chalky, chalky dove grays, pinks, and lavenders, as calm and serene as a rare afternoon spent daydreaming . . .
