much love monday.

i like to use monday as a way to reflect on the previous week, to start anew, and to send a little love into the world.  won't you join me?    

today i am grateful for: 

what a whirlwind weekend, but we got so much work done at our cottage and it's really starting to come together (and we're all grateful for that, because sis's wedding is just 33 days away!).  

pictures worth a thousand words:
  

 {could sit and watch the lake for hours from the 2nd floor balcony - and i intend to, when the work is done!}

 {oh the yardwork.  but so much progress made this weekend!}

 {sleepy pup on the porch}

 {pretty little touches in my bedroom}

{testing cocktail recipes for sis's wedding}

 

this week's blog love:

• how amazing does catherine of the lifestyled look in this feathered tutu, paired with menswear no less?! a fabulous combo.  also adored her post on gazebo mornings - i'd like one of those today.
• wit and whistle now makes rubber stamps!  yes, please.
• when it comes to eyewear, hip hip gin gin wants to know: are you a marilyn, an audrey, or a jackie?
• great table decor inspiration from papery & cakery.
• so glad his & hers shared these hilarious and spot-on illustrations of fashion icons created for refinery 29.

here's to another grateful and love-filled week.
