Anyone else craving some Monday morning inspiration? I’ve had this photo saved for weeks now and find myself just staring at it, and every time I do, I think I discover something new about it that I love. You’ve also probably seen it before (it’s a famous shot from @stevenharrisarchitects on the interwebs right now!), but hopefully it also ignites your creativity today! It’s just too good not to share! #makeastatement #interiorinspo — #interiorforinspo #interiormilk #simplystyleyourspace #pocketofmyhome #howyouhome #bhghome #lovelysquares #homesweethome #homedesign #decor #homedecoration #design #interiordecor #interiorstyle #dailydecordetail mystylishspace #passionforinterior #interiorsnapshot #stellarspaces #currentdesignsituation #lovewhereyoudwell #hometohave #mydomaine #inmydomaine
Can't believe it... I dropped her off at her first day of kindergarten today. Did I cry? Yep. But it may have been more at the realization that I’m actually old enough to have a kid in kindergarten than it was about dropping her off 🙀. I was so distracted with emotions that I’m fairly certain I forgot half of the requests on the school supplies list, but I did partner with @rothys to be sure Parker had some stylish footwear to accompany her! So, we can check shoes off of her supplies list! #rothys #ad
In honor of this little nuggets upcoming 2nd birthday... I’m just over here scrolling through baby photos of her and borderline ugly crying at how big she is now 👶🏻😭! #sidneysloane #lifegivingsquares #our_everyday_moments
Fun fact: It was years after we were married before Eric ever saw me in a pair of jeans! No, I wasn’t parading around NYC pants free (although some do!)... I was just more a skirt and dress girl even though I wasn’t even that girly. I just couldn’t creatively put together outfits that involved pants. Now, I can mostly be found living in pants and even wear dresses over them. Funny how personal style changes and evolves! . . . . #fashiondaily #outfitideas #casualstyle #outfitinspiration #whatiwear #wiw #whatiweartoday #outfitshare #nashvillestyles #lotd #styleinspiration #minimalstyle #streetstyleluxe #momstyle #nashville #whowhatwearing #wiwtoday #whowhatwear #stylegram #nydj #anthrostyle
There’s a slew of summer markets going on around town today, and even though I’m solo parenting, I’m packing up a bag of snacks that would rival Thanksgiving dinner to occupy my children and taking full advantage of this summer Saturday! - - #thatsdarling #darlingweekend #darlingmovement #flashesofdelight #mytinyatlas #dscolor #morningslikethese #oneofthebunch #peoplescreatives #livethelittlethings #thehappynow #postitfortheaesthetic #theeverygirl #lifegivingsquares #alwayschasingmagic #homesweethome #interiorforinspo #interiormilk #simplystyleyourspace #pocketofmyhome #howyouhome #bhghome #lovelysquares
Rolling into the weekend with a bag of kale from the farmers market and a great flashback photo of #sidneysloane’s chunky thighs. I hope everyone has come to never expect a Nordstrom Anniversary sale recap from me... I’m a failure in that blogging department 😉👍🏻! My fav girls to trust for those selections are @seeannajane, @lizadams and @pencilandpaperco. Go check out their top picks! All I have to offer are baby thighs for you today!
Rosé and oysters and fresh air and good company... it’s what summer is made of! Can I just live on a boat that also has a bar and the best lobster rolls?! . . . . #oneofthebunch #peoplescreatives #livethelittlethings #thehappynow #postitfortheaesthetic #lifegivingsquares #alwayschasingmagic #mytinyatlas #mydomainetravels #momentslikethese #thepursuitofjoyproject #nothingisordinary #liveauthentic #abmlifeiscolorful #acolorstory #girlsthatwander #darlingescapes #seemycity #wonderful_places #embracingtheseasons #chasingfacades #thisisnewyorkcity #streetsofnewyork #dametravelerfoodie #fineinteriors #prettyrestaurantinteriors #inspiremyinstagram #momentsofmine
Can we all agree that having a holiday smack dab in the middle of the week just totally throws everything off? Next time, let’s just make it a 5 day holiday weekend! 👍🏻🇺🇸 #pursuepretty #goopgo #adventuresofanthro
How many woven baskets is too many? I find them each so unique that it’s hard to just have one! #summervibes #todossantos #hotelsancristobal
Each morning brings a new day full of opportunities for my two mini tornados to create some serious messes. It’s like the kids just can’t help themselves. Why not turn this yogurt into a face mask? Who wants clean sheets when you can have dirty sheets? It’s such a test of your patience to enjoy the moments and not always follow them around with a broom and wet wipe in hand! It helps to have a reliable solution to all the mess these kids can create, so I partnered with @LGUSA to praise them for their cutting edge washers that give me peace of mind... especially when yogurt face masks are involved! #LifesGood #GetDirty #ad
Politics aside, I don’t think anyone can imagine having their family torn apart. Let alone, children separated from their mothers. Helpless and innocent children. I read one mother’s account that the officers told her they were merely taking her 5 yr old son for a bath... only to then tell her 20 min later that she’ll never see her son again. It sends me into a panic just at the thought of it. I’m out of words so I’ve linked to some admirable organizations fighting for these families and children’s rights in my Stories. Also, the brilliant @cupofjo has an eloquent and thoughtful post outlining what’s happening, why it’s happening and all of the ways to volunteer, donate and take action. #familiesbelongtogether @supportkind @raicestexas @theyoungcenter @together.rising @borderangelsofficial
I may be minimal in my color preferences, but I’m a maximalist in my jewelry. Always. More is more is more! #mystyle #outfittoday
Hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend! Why can’t every weekend be three days? #todossantos #hotelsancristobal #girlswhowander #cntraveler
Even if I tried to recreate this reading and fireplace nook in my house, it wouldn’t be the same. Between the artwork, the chandelier and the dried wax on the candelabra... and don’t even get me started on the cement tile! There’s a simplicity and also a magicalness to it... and I would expect nothing less from the brilliant @bunkhousehotels! 👏🏻❤️ #hotelsancristobal #cntraveler #meettheworld #girlswhowander #bunkhousehotels
The key to wearing an all-white outfit is to be sure you’re thousands of miles away from your children and their spaghetti sauce covered hands! (I also really missed those tiny hands 👧🏼👶🏻) #whatiweartoday #outfitshare
