I’m not exactly sure what I’d use these for or where I’d hang them, but I love them. They’re probably best utilized at events but they’d be cute strung around a patio or deck or even together with little white lights or maybe hanging from a brown wood fence, or like beaded curteins to create …
I was that annoying girl who loved high school. Correction: I was that even more annoying girl who loved going to school because she got to see all of her friends and be social and hang out and talk through her classes. I rarely missed school because I feared missing out on some important social …
After being bundled up in layer upon layer of clothing, I cannot WAIT for warmer days with less of the aforementioned, layers. Also, being lake-dwellers now, Spring and Summer are more like month-long events here vs seasons, so it’s really the first time in my life I’ve begun thinking about and cultivating what I’m “planning …
I love when something can be used in so many ways, for so many purposes, and not just as fashion, but as decor as well. Scroll to the end to see how I’ve used and worn this fun and versatile {and sparkly} accessory. I mean, think of all the uses! How would you use/wear it? …

Find me on Instagram to see these in real time. Â Â 1. Just okay waves…2. I tried these large spongy, bendy, sticks in my damp, un-brushed hair, to see if I could get messy beach waves without heat. It didn’t really give me the results I wanted, but I used only 4 curlers. I’ll give it …

I thought I’d complete my nature-inspired week of posting {except for the one inside my closet} with what I think are GORGEOUS photos of tree bark and tree stumps. I took them the other day on one of our walks and couldn’t get over the color and richness of each of them in person and …
As you may have guessed, I was inspired by Monday’s post: Decorating with Branches, and decided to create a little branch nail art manicure, which could also be construed as Cherry Blossoms due to the pink flowers I added. I love that this manicure is in line with all the pale nails we saw on …
I’m driving down to LA tomorrow for another little filming session with Tide & BlogHer, and while I have a million and one other things to do, I’m pulling red carpet looks from my closet to translate into wearable Spring style. Here are a few closeup shots of my {messy} closet {at the moment} and …
For taking walks, I bundle up like there’s no tomorrow. And usually, because I wear fingerless gloves OR I keep taking my damn hand OUT OF my glove to take photos, my fingertips feel like they’re going to fall off by the time we get back. And then I usually say something ridiculous to the …
Lake House Pinterest Board via French GreyI have been known to, on more than one occasion, spy an amazingly large fallen tree branch while outside, decide it’s perfection, drag it home, wash it, and use it as decor in my own house. Note the word “fallen”, as I would never cut a tree and steal …
Find me on Instagram to see these in real time. It was a short week that began fun with friends who came to visit Sun-Monday and left just in time to miss the snow storm that kept us indoors for much of the remaining week. People who are used to actual snow storms wouldn’t probably …
Sometimes… everything I am and everything I do is just a distraction to keep my mind from the darkness. It’s not that it doesn’t work, because it does. I stay busy. I focus on how to grow my business, how to create art, how to feed my passionate soul, how to be happy, and in …
A few weeks ago, after what seemed like a never-ending decor battle with my console table design layout {I know, so dramatic}, I decided that the wall above it, which is part of it, needed something that was pretty enough to draw attention but not so much as to distract the eye. It seemed like …
