dreamy

although it's only been a few weeks since we got back from portugal, it already feels like forever. now i'm stuck in this dreamy mindset and can't stop thinking about where to go next... my thoughts are filled with images of wooded paths, patches of sunlight in lush forests, open meadows, secret swimming holes, tousled hair, crochet and lace.

love this home









This is just a seasonal summer home, but it still looks so lived in. I love the starkness of crisp white mixed with the organic knotted wood blocks, the industrial kitchen that still manages to feel warm, the pops of black and white throughout, brighty airy spaces and wide open windows.

Savage Beauty









These are just a few pieces from the Alexander McQueen exhibit at the MET showing until August 4th.. Oh how I wish I could go... The exhibit features pieces meant to show the "contrasting opposites" in his collections.

I'm drawn the most to the Romantic Primitivism and Romantic Gothic and Cabinet of Curiosities.
Organized by the Costume Institute, this is definitely not one to miss... if you're in the area.

Love.
