Look Linger Love

Good Monday morning. Here’s another random Life Lately post…

I’ve moved one of my ladders to our mudroom entry and it now showcases some of my favorite throws.

Oysters and fried yumminess with girlfriends at Leons.

This guy. This shirt.

My friend Mandy sent over the cutest summer surprise from her fun shop, Waiting on Martha. Josh and I have been playing the roll up backgammon game (the other side is checkers) a lot.

Loving this piece by my new friend and Charleston artist, Raven Roxanne. I snapped this when I visited Redux last week.

Black and white pumps. I nearly bought them a couple of weeks ago. Couldn’t stop thinking about them, so I went back for them. So excited about these. I feel like they’ll be a pair that will be cool in 20 years, too. A great shape with other color options, too.

Flowers for a friend.

Lilly’s ridiculously cute bathroom vanity that I’ll probably always be envious of. When we remodeled our house a couple of years ago I had it in my head that this was what I wanted for Lil. It didn’t exist, so we found a metal vanity base, had our painters lacquer it this pink, and then had a marble top made for it.

We had a Folly day with our friends Adam & Anna while they stayed out there last week. Was fun to visit that side of Charleston that I rarely get over to.

Really loving the Goldbug Line at Croghan’s downtown. Designed by Charleston’s (and Croghan’s own) Mariana Hay.

Lounging in these pants with this Biscuit bedding.

Pretty Charleston walk with my friend Olivia.

On Thursday Josh and I headed to Hilton Head. He had a work conference and I tagged along. We ended up cutting the trip short and came home Friday night, but it was a nice little getaway.

Some of my beach things, this basket, this bikini, these sunglasses, and some sunscreen.

On our drive home we stopped in at the Carolina Cider Co. I always stop when I’m on 17, it’s the cutest.

And so we had pie for breakfast this weekend…

Our family has been busy enjoying summer. I can’t believe it’s already near August. I mean!! Where did it go? So I thought I’d share another life lately post. This isn’t even close to a complete picture, but here are a few snaps on my phone in random order.

My friend Mackenzie sent over some pretty new office supplies from her Design Darling shop. I especially love these periwinkle pens, the ksny planners, and that cute foil print.

In love with my Ladies at the Beach print.

Y’all know I’m a long time devoted fan of Callie’s Biscuits. Well they opened up a restaurant downtown, called Little Hot Biscuit, and it’s amazing.

My kids are obsessed (beyond obsessed) with their Chomp Stix. If you have kids I can’t recommend them enough.

Working on a little project for Southern Living and here are a couple of sneak peeks!

Some pretty Charleston scenes…

The kids doing what they do best, jumping. I need to replace those glass toppers on the coffee tables. Thinking maybe some square trays would be good.

My friend Sidney’s shop Eclectic Charleston looking gorgeous as always.

Some pool time with the kids.

I stopped by the Troubadour showroom for their 50% off sale. Crazy good deals – online too! Use “Spring50” at checkout.

Flowers for a friend beautifully designed by Out Of Hand.

I found a look alike to these sandals by Steve Madden. 3 color options.

Loving these glasses and pitcher that I found at Open Door Shop.

The kids got their hair cut last week. Lilly loves to go downtown and do this, it’s so sweet. Afterwards we went for donuts, to the museum, and then to Taco Boy for lunch.

Two weekends ago Josh and I went to Union Provisions with some friends. It’s beautiful inside. I didn’t have anything that blew me away but I did enjoy everything I ate. It’s tapas style. Def worth stopping in though, I think lunch would be great with all the light pouring in.

I co-hosted a baby shower last night for a good friend who’s having a boy. I wore this Steven Alan dress, very similar one right here on sale for $70. Also, similar ladder right here. I have two of these in my house and love them for throws, towels…

Happy Monday!

My life according to instagram… So I always feel torn on whether or not to do these posts, but I have no idea if y’all follow my instagram or not?! And these posts usually get a good response when I do them… If you hate it (or love it) please speak up.

Yesterday I took over Glitter Guide’s feed sharing some of my favorite things about Charleston! So much fun. Here’s what else is new.

My new art by Sally! I swear one of these days I’ll get it all up on my walls. What the heck is my deal anyway, right now they’re all leaning here and there in my house.

The prettiest flowers are blooming in Charleston right now.

Yummy breakfast at Park Cafe.

The kids laying on the afghan my great grandmother made. So special to me.

Our fireworks situation this past weekend for the 4th.

My favorite pair of kicks! Rug, too.

Stopped into Hampden and fell in love with the stripey bags.

I admit I might have a problem with umbrellas but I just couldn’t pass this baby up. It was on sale! And see, Lilly likes it. At least I didn’t buy it in every color.

Pretty new maxi dress for summer.

Follow along on my insta.
