You might know that I’ve had a fascination with white vests for a while lately. I’ve talked about them frequently enough. So when I spotted this white vest at Target (YES!) I didn’t think twice. It looks high end and I even like it better than many of the designer versions I’ve seen lately. So happy with this buy!

Really loving my new Mother bleached out jeans. They have the simplest ankle fray at the bottom and are just comfy and cute. I went up a size in these because I hate wearing tight anything when it’s so hot outside. The color is right for summer (don’t you love the indigo shows up on the edges?).

Under the vest is my Splendid drape tank. It’s legit – love the swing to it. Comes in black, as well and is a reasonable price.

In case you’re wondering, these pictures were taken in downtown Summerville, SC. If you’re ever in that area you must stop by the children’s book shop A Very Little Bookstore. The owner is a delight and chooses the most amazing collection of books that I have ever seen.

I headed upstate South Carolina to Spartanburg a couple of weeks ago to visit my good friend Jane Pope. She’s one of the best that there ever was, y’all. A beautiful person, on the inside and out. I was there for a Land of Nod photo shoot for their August issue. I helped Jane design a playroom (and by “helped” I mean did very little) for her sweet kiddos and the Land of Nod team came in to shoot it for the catalogue. Can’t wait for it to come out and show you everything.

 

While I was there I obviously begged Jane to swing me by her jewelry studio. It’s not a secret that I’m a HUGE fan of her work. Well, upon stepping in I was taken aback. She’s been holding out on us. That studio up there is exquisite and dreamy. I snapped a few pictures with my iPhone so I could show y’all.

 

Here’s Jane.

Looking in the earrings glass case. On top is my favorite pair of earrings of hers that I own – her mismatched stud earrings. You don’t have to mix and match them though – she sells them in any combo you want. Also I wish I would have thought to move a pair of her lips earrings in the shot. I gifted, like, 8 pairs of them for Christmas this past year. They’re the cutest.

A few of her amazing rings. I’m getting into rings finally. They’re so fun to mix and match.

A few delicate necklaces. That slate necklace with the teeny diamonds is my favorite. I think. Well at this moment anyway, hard to choose.

This was not a posed shot. She really did get a call while we were there and I just loved the scene. Her art collection in there is so good!

More pretty rings!

Inspiration boards always intrigue me. I could have spent an hour just talking about it with her.

Thanks, Jane, for taking me by your studio and letting me share it here. I hope y’all enjoyed the little iPhone tour of one of my most talented friends. You can view the Jane Pope Jewelry online shop right here.

Photo bomb day. We had an amazing time in Naples, FL. I think I mentioned that it’s one of my most favorite places. I’ve grown up going there and just think it’s really special. Maybe because of my memories of riding bikes through my grandparent’s neighborhood with my cousins. Or collecting shells in the morning. Maybe because of all the ice cream I once inhaled. Or the excitement of being 13 and going shopping with my Granny wondering if maybe, just maybe she might buy me something. All of these memories make me happy and I’ve been feeling very nostalgic for those days. So it was nice to get down there with my family last week. In case you’re wondering, we stayed at the Ritz – we love that place!

Correction. I like these. Just a few things for Monday, right? Gonna work on that vacation post today, too.

 

For now, some favorite things I’ve seen around the last couple of days… Dying over those totes. Aren’t they beautiful?

 

Those Michael Kors camel slingbacks are amazing. And you could live in that neon embroidered LWD. And the Elizabeth & James floral dress would be so great for events this summer.

Happy Weekend. Y’all have a nice Father’s Day? We flew home from Naples today so it sorta feels like Josh got gypped. We’ll probably make it up next weekend or something. But we did have an amazing week in Florida together, so there’s that. I’ll try to get a picture post up tomorrow or Tuesday.

 

Meanwhile, how amazing is this girl’s outfit? This is a clickable image, so just scroll over it for the links to all the products.
