Happy Tuesday, loves!

When Brad and I were in Nashville a couple weeks ago we had the most incredible dinner at this local establishment. The best part of the meal (aside from the pineapple mojito!) was a gourmet gruyere, hickory bacon macaroni and cheese- of which both of us desperately needed a second helping. Since then, I can't get this quote out of my head. 

Isn't it just perfectly fitting?!

{summer inspiration: a perfect picnic}

. . . if you have been reading for a while, you will know about a certain and undying love for summer afternoon picnics, as well as for the fun accessories that go along with such romantic afternoons, and this picnic hamper from spanish fashion label loewe could not be lovelier -- gold-rimmed china and gilded flatware, all held together with perfect pink accents -- add a little champagne and a dashing companion, and the world falls away . . .

. . . happened upon the portfolio of lifestyle photographer and london-based new zealander, michael paul, and fell in to a world of chevron floors and beds with silk canopies, champagne and pearls on gilt marble tables and the most beautifully atmospheric play of light and shadow . . .
