Happy Monday Lovecats! I know, it’s been a million years, but this summer has been a blast and I’ve been soaking up every minute of it. …And Saturday was just the tip of the iceberg. Yes, that’s me and Emily Henderson standing in front of her gorgeous fireplace in her mountain house that she recently …
Sunday House Crush // 50’s Charmer on the Lanes in Lake Arrowhead
Lovecats, this is MY HOUSE… & I’m still crushing HARD on it! The last two weeks have been insane. I decided it was time to make the move… Called my realtor and by the following week already had a showing. Two days later, a photographer was here then another showing after that. It was listed …
Sunday House Crush // The Perfect Lake House
This home is incredible. It’s large but so inviting, and so cozy… I think beyond the magical views of the lake and the windows themselves within the architecture of the home, it’s decorated and styled impeccably (for the space). It could just be styled really well for the photos, or maybe it’s both, but whatever …
Sunday House Crush // Lake Arrowhead Waterfront Estate
This home is the epitome of the cliched saying LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION! BECAUSE O.M.G. The location is INCREDIBLE. Much like my favorite peninsula home, its got it’s own private location on the lake, though not as much land/property as the peninsula house, it’s quite beautiful, and I love the stairs down to the shore. There …
Sunday House Crush // New-Old World Charm Custom Mountain Home
This home is really amazing. I mean, stunning. It’s completely custom and on a HUGE private cul-de-sac all to itself, within a gated community. I happened to find my way into this community with my mom a few weeks ago and shot photos at this very house (which I’ll post later this week)… although at …
Don’t Go Breakin’ My Heart Cuz It’s the Only One I Got
Sponsored by Zappos What I’m Wearing… * Shoes: Trotters Lizzie from Zappos * Vintage leopard blouse (see how I’ve worn it in the past here) * Vintage oversized cardigan (seen here earlier this year and here a hundred years ago) * Jeans by AG (seen here – WITH HEELS and seen here with boots) * …
Sunday House Crush // On the Golf Course
I’ve never really been one who had any desire to live on or near a golf course, although when once thinking about moving to Palm Springs (before realizing that I’d have to move elsewhere for the Summer due to my skin actually melting off of my bones in the 120 degree heat), there were a …
Sunday House Crush // Castle In the Forest in Lake Arrowhead
Backyard view of the Castle in the Forest I’ve been wanting to bring back my Sunday House Crush posts lately but haven’t really found anything that has been knocking my socks off… UNTIL NOW. This house/estate is officially called the Castle in the Forest, and while I have driven by it before, yesterday, as part …
Take Your Old Life – Then You Put a Line Through It
What I’m Wearing… * Free People Love of My life Dress in light blue (I have it in black too, see me wearing it here) – there’s a cute floral option as well, but the fabric is different. I’m always on the fence about buying it too. * Winette sunglasses by Barton Perreira – from …
That Fall Feeling // Momentary Oneness with the Universe
I know it’s still technically summer, and I’m generally not one to rush into the colder months, but it felt like fall today in a way that sort of reassured me that everything is falling into place… well, hopefully. I guess we have to accept that life has a certain uncertainty and uncontrollable chaos where …
Dogwood Tavern Renovation Stage 1 // Opening Up The Space
I SO wish I could have shared the renovation of the old Royal Oak into Dogwood Tavern with you in real time, but alas, I was forbidden. I ONLY wish I had not listened and done it anyway because I think these would have been a lot more fun to see as they were taking …
Sunday House Crush // Retro ’70s Time Capsule Cabin
Lately my Sunday House Crushes fall more into the quaint and quirky far-more-affordable-Airbnb-possibility than the incredible lakeside mansions I was falling for last year… and maybe if I delve into it a little bit deeper, it will give me a bigger glimpse at where my head is at… but until then, I’ll just keep it …
Sunday House Crush // Perfect Little Airbnb Cabin in Lake Arrowhead
This is just the cutest little cabin, I can’t even stand it! I love the exterior and the land and the interior is already adorable but has potential to be even better. I’d snatch this up in a second for an Airbnb if I had the cash right now because I love it and the …
Sunday House Crush // Fairytale Fortress
Way up high on the mountain, this newly built home looks like a fortress straight out of a fairytale, and I kind of LOVE IT! It borders between magical and haunting in a way, and I just love the way it looks in the snow! It’s the perfect winter mountain home for those who want …
It Finally Happened! Dogwood Tavern is Officially OPEN!!!
We quietly opened our doors last Saturday night and Dogwood Tavern quickly went from the space we’ve been renovating for over a year, causing so much stress we could barely manage to see straight, to a place that was alive and full of happy people and music and I couldn’t stop smiling all night long …
