a brand new month . . .

With a new month and week upon us - it feels like a fresh start. Spring cleaning has been accomplished, the laundry is folded and put away and the entire apartment smells like a garden thanks to the flowers Natalie gave me. What makes this week even more special is Eric finally gets from spring training. 

A few things I'm loving this week - the new issue of Kinfolk (which is stunning and beautiful), blooms to mark the beginning of spring and a brand new bottle of Rodin hand lotion. 

I hope all of you have a creative and productive week ahead.

a brand new week . . .

After an incredible Saturday photographing our apartment the rest of the weekend was all about enjoying some time at home due to the rainy weather. It was delightful.

A few things inspiring me this week - the first issue of Kinfolk was the perfect read before Thanksgiving, blooms for the house (anemones and paper whites), and lastly a trip to Heath Ceramics to pick up a few presents and some dish ware for the apartment.

I hope all of you have a lovely week ahead whether you're prepping for Thanksgiving, traveling to visit family or staying close to home. I can't wait for the holiday weekend - it's going to be so fun!

Cheers to a wonderful short week of work!

a brand new week . . .

I can't believe Monday is already here - this weekend went by entirely too fast! The past few days I was able to catch up on all the NYFW shows, all of which make me want to skip over winter and jump straight into spring. Quality time at home was ever so lovely - making brunch, tiding up the apartment and just being plan old lazy. What did all of you do this weekend?

Here are a few of my favorites from this week . . . I couldn't and still can't put down the September issue of British Vogue - it's filled with fall fashion that has me dreaming up outfits for the chilly months ahead. I'm in L-O-V-E with my the necklace that came in the mail from Joslyn - she and her girlies are uber talented. I've been wearing my favorite leopard Kate Spade flats from last fall almost every single day - they are my go-to shoe for every occasion. This moleskine notepad goes with me everywhere just in case inspiration comes while walking around the city or I'm sitting in a cafe. And lastly, I took a little trip to Birch to pick up some blooms for the house that make it smell oh-so-good.

Hope all of you have a lovely week ahead. I hope it goes by fast because we're off on a little vacation later this week!

I'm Loving . . .

For me there's nothing better than filling your house with fresh blooms - they instantly make a home look polished and cheery. Going into my favorite flower shops is like a little treat that is totally worth every penny.

The cool color palette of this home shot by Lonny is right up my alley. It's incredibly serene and peaceful.

I've been coveting this clutch for quite some time now - it's the perfect size and the color will go with any ensemble I throw together in the morning. It can even go from day to night. Don't worry, I've already added it to my wish list.

Are you constantly looking for summer salad inspiration? I certainly am. Eric is always asking me to mix it up a little. This salad by Sparkling Ink caught my eye due to its vibrate colors, but it looks delicious. I'll be heading to the farmers market to pick up the ingredients to make it - let's hope it gets Eric's stamp of approval.

Lately I've been completely in love with the idea of creating a little inspiration photo collage with things that have inspired me throughout the week - I'm toying with the idea of adding it as a weekly blog post. This photo in particular made me want to do it even more. Would this be something you would want to see? I think it could be fun!

What are you loving this week? Is there a ensemble that got you to be creative in your closet? A room that made you daydream? I'd love to know.

TGIF!

Our days are currently being filled with lots sunshine and I couldn't be happier - it calls for spending more time outside (I'll find any excuse to be in the sun), finding a sun filled corner of my apartment to enjoy reading a good book or perhaps my new Vogue Living and a hike over in the headlands. I'm quite excited for the next few days off . I'll be putting on my comfy weekend wardrobe, stripes are a must and embrace every ray of sunshine (even if it's a little breezy).

Have a fabulous weekend everyone and I hope it's already off to a fantastic start!

xo,

Caitlin

happy may day!

Today brings back so many incredible memories of when I was a little girl. I used to bundle little bouquets of flowers together for our friends and neighbors - going door to door delivering them. Flowers have a special place in my heart. They bring so much joy, happiness and life into a room. So, be sure to pop on over to your local grocery store or flower shop from some lovely blooms. Have a wonderful May day lovelies!
