The Weekend & Other Things

Hi, sweet friends!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I can honestly say that I did absolutely nothing (except for church on Sunday). Millie and I hung around the house just enjoying each other's company, watching movies, cleaning, painting nails, and getting ready for the week ahead. It was positively delightful! I often forget the wonderful feeling of doing nothing. Over the past two years, I haven't been able to enjoy much me-time, school consumed most of my down time. This weekend proved how thankful I am to be finished with graduate school and now be able to relish in the little moments at home.

{I found the perfect bucket to display some of my New Orleans goodies. It's a fantastic addition to my office space, and quite the conversation piece.}

{For the past two weeks I've been toting around this new Kate Spade set that my mama so kindly purchased for me on our beach getaway. The subtle color blocking is perfect for spring and summer.}

{I also found this fantastic serving platter and appetizer plates in the 'Cocktails, Anyone?' pattern at the Kate Spade outlet. This is possibly my favorite purchase from the trip. Now I just need you all over for a party!}

{My Lilly Pulitzer Summer 2011 catalog came in the mail on Friday. Part of my weekend was spent drooling over and highlighting pieces that must be added to my collection.}

{I think I finally created the perfect little arrangement for some of my favorite scents (the others sit on my dresser). There's something so feminine about putting your perfumes on display.}


**



{Do you put the tags that come on your purchases on display? The Kate Spade insert in my new bag and those charming Lilly tags were too pretty to toss.}


**



{I know spring is here and summer is just around the corner when I change my nail color every week. This week it's OPI 'Shorts Story'- the brightest pink ever without being neon.}


**



{I'm so looking forward to tying this pretty new scarf on an old bag this summer to spice things up a bit!}

{I finally created an ideal spot for showcasing some of my favorite bracelets. It's amazing what a fun display can do for your morning routine.}
