end of august...












This past weekend I headed up to a little lakeside town called Kincardine, to visit a friend before Summer's end. I've been many times before as a child with my family, with memories of tall grass and sandy beaches, a beautiful cottage with little hideaway crawl spaces, and a back yard full of sand and forest where many an adventure was imagined. I loved the place, and was so happy to return this Summer! The water was an amazing shade of turquoise – so odd for a lake you'd think! The breeze was strong, the water was the perfect temperature, and the sun was shining all day. Even the country drive on the way up was wonderful. I knew it would be the perfect place to test out some more Diana Mini film and I'm so glad I did. I managed to capture some lovely colour and perfect memories of the day... I already can't wait to go back.

As we head into September tomorrow though, I hope you've all had a lovely Summer so far and enjoy the rest while you can!

Also today, I'm guest posting over on La Dolce Vita blog for Paloma's wonderful "10 Things I Can't Live Without" series. Check it out here. Thanks for including me Paloma!

striped wool...


I have fallen in love with this striped sweater from Stella McCartney... it's the perfect thickness of stripes, with that gorgeous camel colour.* I'm really liking her hairstyle too.

*If only it wasn't $1300.

comfy cozy...



There's something about an extra fluffy blanket that just makes a bed look so comfy cozy any time of year... I'm definitely saving these two pics for inspiration in my own bedroom. Of course, I'm always a fan of light cream and white decor as well... Hope you've all had a wonderful day, it's been crazy here lately, so I'm off to bed early tonight!

fall inspiration :: filippa k...







Even though it's absolutely boiling out this week, I'm still having thoughts of what kind of pieces i'd like to pick up for Fall. Stumbled upon Filippa K recently, who has me coveting these pieces in perfect neutral shades... along with a little sparkle, a short tweed jacket and cozy woolen knits... *swoon... and with a company "based on the concepts of style, simplicity, and quality" how can you go wrong?

woodland crest...



Stumbled upon these adorable wedding invites over on Oh So Beautiful Paper today. I love the crest design and the little animal details... so cute. The styling of the photos is gorgeous too... yummy macarons and peachy-pink, white flowers with a pink and gold tea cup & saucer. Perfect! The work is by Mitchell & Dent - Aussie stationers who have just created a whole new line, which you can check out here...

late summer sun...




This weekend is supposed to be absolutely gorgeous, just in time for the last one of August... wishing I was tucked away in this grand country home for the next two days though... amongst stunningly detailed architecture, gorgeous landscaped grounds, and a hidden away seating area that's most definitely Secret Garden worthy...
