I kinda dig this: video
Good morning! The end of the week always brings a certain vigorous lust for life, if you will. I’m feeling enamored with the whole concept of the “weekend” even though I need to spend it packing and cleaning. Alas, I’m sure I’ll be able to fit in some pool time and DD-ing. Right now I’m…
Listening to Local Natives – cannot get enough, especially Shape Shifter, Stranger Things & Cubism Dream.
Craving pancakes…especially Blueberry Pancakes…
Loving my new mini George Foreman.
Perusing fun home guides from LadyLux

I love this band. Say hello to a concert via NPR.
This weekend, as wonderful as it was, was not enough to fully energize me for this week of work, changes, responsibilities.
Today, I’m listening to NPR’s best songs of 2010 thus far…
daydreaming about a “real” vacation, maybe to here?
and lusting after these beautiful white dresses found here
On the cusp of a weekend with my sweet, sweet beau in extremely warm weather listening to music incessantly.
I hope you enjoy this first weekend in June (one of the best months, in my opinion) no matter what you’re doing.
photos from captivate me, le love, so about what I said and wakarusa
So Wakarusa is coming up in less than 10 days and we don’t even have our tent/sleeping bags/anything together. That will all come…I’m hoping, but most importantly, what does one wear to a music festival. The good thing about a hippy-dippy-trippy music fest is that it is exactly that! Free-flowing moo-moos + hat, sunglasses and piles of necklaces = totally acceptable. Here are some pics from last year.
It looks like I wore little dresses, headbands, sunglasses, flippy-floppies, earrings and my handy-dandy fanny-pack. I plan on utilizing what worked last year and incorporating a few affordable new things I will use all summer.
Flowy, Flattering Dresses
1 Gingham Tube Dress 2 Mustard Floral Dress 3 Vintage Floral Dress 4 Orange knit dress All happen to be from Forever21
Headgear

On the feets

I must share these photos from the wedding in the delta, mentioned here and here. It was lovely and fun and seemed so effortless, although I’m sure it wasn’t! It all took place on Lake Chicot in Robert’s hometown of Lake Village. There are so many dying towns in South Arkansas but this doesn’t feel like one of them. The people are friendly, they know how to throw a party and they eat hella good.
The backyard, tables, flowers and lake.
The extended dock
The bride’s father, Mr. Paul, fished out a hat that had gone astray.
The partaaay
Flip-flop basket, best idea ever!
The cake
Bride & Groom
Amazing music
More amazing music…The revivalists, straight from NOLA.
Me, Robert and his lovely mom
First of all, I can’t stop listening to this:
As I mentioned, Mom and I are going to visit little brother in Charleston, SC. I’ve just checked the forecast and it looks like we’re in store for sunny days and balmy nights (yes!).
Here is what I believe to be essential for a 5 day/4 night trip to the beach!
