Another busy week. I feel like I blinked and suddenly it was Friday afternoon. Thought it would be nice to share a few pretty things for your weekend.
1. I’ve been sourcing living room pics for a project and ran across the beautiful portfolio of designer Ashley Whittaker. Perfect Saturday morning coffee design inspiration material. You’ll recognize some of the images, as she’s been published quite a bit. Love the neo-traditional vibe and liberal use of color in all of her spaces. Her feminine style and color palette reminds me of another long-time fave, Ruthie Sommers. I would consider tarring and feathering myself then running down the street like a banshee to have any one of these rooms. Kidding. Sort of.

2. And speaking of good coffee material, I love this glass coffee mug with its gold lettering. And it actually looks comfortable to hold. Great way to start the day in style.
3. Picked up this long cardi on clearance at Target this week – it’s super comfy and looks great with skinnies, leggings, or even a fitted tee dress. Love that you have the option to button it a lot or a little when more coverage is needed. Yesterday I wore mine with leggings, boots, and a black plaid scarf over my ballet gear before/after class and was surprised when I received several compliments. I ordered the XS and didn’t find it too snug at all. Usually the x-smalls are for peeps with 12 year old adolescent-boy figures. Not the case on this one.
We plan to stay home and enjoy some downtime since it’s an extended weekend. Who can resist relaxing movie nights and bundling up for a big bonfire with homemade s’mores? That’s our kids’ new favorite family activity these days. Not to mention Downton comes on Sunday night…weeee! I’ll be back after the holiday. Hope you enjoy your long weekend!
