Beat the Summer Heat with these 6 things

July 20, 2023 · In: Interior Design

We bought our first school supplies this week, a fact which seems utterly displaced when record high heat is on the forecast, but, alas, we are rolling with the reality of summer coming to an end for our kids.  We, however, are determined to hold on to summer as long as possible!  

We planned one last quick trip to Miami to grab some rays, sit by the pool, and put our toes in the sand before reality starts to catch up with us!  So, this weekend I’ve got some outfit planning to do for a modern vacay in the summer heat.  I need to pamper my nails a bit, which is always a good excuse to sit still, read a book, and sip on my coffee, which will preferably be a cinnamon toast cream coffee (I’ll add the recipe for you!  It’s great iced as well!) 

This week I’ve been having major clarity on what I want for our home and particularly when it is related to the back yard.  We’ve FINALLY gotten some initial plans and it’s looking very promising, so I plan to dive into my Pinterest a bit more and see just how many unreasonable requests I can make of our budget!  🙂

Some of the smaller tasks on my own list are hanging the new art we got (and the mirrors!) and committing to some new bathroom sconces.  There are so many beautiful options!

So, I will sign off, my lovely friends and bid you a wonderful weekend full of summer heat, lots of time with your loved ones, and maybe even a few minutes to pamper yourself! xxV

Comment TREE to get the link!!! 🎄 ✨ 

Sorry to break from fall for a minute but the Grand Duchess is BACK IN STOCK!! I waited a year to get mine last year and they sold out so fast that I couldn’t get more for our own home or projects so I already bought two more!! They are WORTH THE HYPE!! I’m tearing up just thinking about how pretty it is with the twinkling lights (& Jack is trying to convince me to put them up now! Haha!)

But seriously, this tree is 1/5 of the price of the designer versions and is truly exquisite!

Ok! I’ll stop talking so you can go get yours!  Yipppeeeee!!!!!

Comment SHOP to get the links & more styling hacks!! 

Guys! I’m so pumped! I love creating a living space meant to dine in and that’s what we’ve created here! It’s luxe, warm, inviting, smells incredible and gives a sense that you want to linger forever!

Oh, and did I mention that it’s loaded with budget friendly finds & styling hacks? We’ve used everything from dinnerware from Amazon to glassware from IKEA to little marble bowls loaded with little nuts & treats from @hmhome !! 

The baskets, hurricanes, and bowls overflowing with wood and pine cones definitely give a nod to the fall season as do the warm brown velvet curtains (another Amazon find!) 

The only question we have to answer is- what’s for dinner?!
