Summer Interlude

Jul 15, 2011


Hey loves, I still need to write up a Travel Journal entry on our fabulous time spent in the city of Versailles and, of course, Paris ... but for now, I thought I'd share a glimpse of my summer with you. It's been filled with glorious flea marketing, beautiful European towns and villages, crazygorgeous vintage cars, fun dinner parties and learning new {+ delicious} recipes. Things have been a little hectic as my honey is getting ready to go on business leave for six months {ahhhh, it kills me just to write that} but I think it's made me savor this sweet summer even more. I'll be chatting more soon! xo.

Above: Metz, France }{ Can never get enough of that incredible country ...

How's your summer been?

  2. Your blue nail polish goes perfectly well with that beautiful ring! I have a smaller version of the ring which I lost last year. (I'm pretty sure you were inspired by Kate's engagement ring?) :D Where did you buy it?

  4. Pat: Thanks. My ring is actually an old family heirloom so there was no inspiration there but I do find it funny that everyone thinks it's inspired by Kate. ;o)

  5. I would love to go to France and Belgium. Do you speak both languages or were you able to get around fine with English only?
