Five Things

Today I’m feeling especially grateful for the ins and outs of everyday life – the beautiful weather, my loved ones, my health. Tragedy hits us all in unexpectedly poignant ways. We never know when a routine experience can change our lives forever. It’s important to savor happy moments and tell people how much you appreciate them. Here are five things I’m thankful for today.

(Spring)

Would You Wear? {Turbans}

Women of the western world have been dabbling in turban-wear for quite a while. But, if you’re acquainted with the Man Repeller, you know that turbans are not one of the most attractive things you can wear (according to men…but who cares!). However, it is easy, fashionable and a fabulous way to disguise unwashed hair. Personally I love it but have not tried it. For some reason, I feel like it looks better with a tan (doesn’t everything?). PS – I discovered airbrush spray tanning. Life changer. I digress. What do you think of turbans? My final thought is that it takes a chic person to make the turban look chic.

So…what do you think? Will you try it? I think this last image convinces me the most.

Love in Bloom

I love these pictures. They have such a honeymoon vibe, don’t you think? In addition to the lovely clothing and adorable couple, this editorial makes me want three things: shorts season, vintage luggage and a macaroon.

A Walk in the Park

I’m loving this spread with the gorgeous hair, textures and furs. It reminds me of the kind of weather we can look forward to. Lots of barren trees but green poking through everywhere.

Loafer Love

I’ve been wanting some loafers to transfer me into Spring and I think these (in any number of colors) will do the trick.

Dreaming of Spring

scotchandscones: 

I am daydreaming of Springtime and all of the lovely things it brings. Fresh oysters, champagne celebrations, patios, later sunsets, wearing shorts, getting a little sun, Spring flowers, farmer’s markets…ahh.
