Totally Toile

One pattern I'll never tire of is toile. I think some rooms take it a bit overboard, but I love it in doses, just like in these rooms:
 
Love this kid's room!





How do you feel about toile? Have a great day!

I need your help!

 
Every summer, I make a list of books I want to read, but this summer, I'm at a loss. I haven't really been keeping a running list like I usually do, and have no idea of anything I want to read! If y'all could leave me some suggestions, I'd be so appreciative!
 
Thanks, y'all!

Loving

Here are some things I'm loving this week: 

 
I tried this beer in a variety pack I put together at a local grocery store, and I love it! It has an apple taste, which will be perfect for fall! I can't wait to enjoy it on cool October nights.
 

I bought this color, E-nuf is E-nuf, at Target a few days ago and love the red pop it provides. My nails look so cheery!
 

I'm loving returning my summer drink at Starbucks, an Iced Venti 2-Splenda Black Tea. It's perfect for the hot weather.
 
(On my wishlist)

I love that I started working this week, and I can afford to return to my "summer lifestyle," as my parents call it haha. I miss getting regular mani/pedis and buying whatever my heart desires during the year, since I don't work!
 
From a margarita date with the bestie earlier this week.

I love being home and reuniting with all of my best friends! Although I love my school, there really is nothing like being home! 

What are y'all loving this week? Have a great day!

Man Candy

I don't know about y'all, but I need a mid-week pick-me-up, and what better way to achieve that than through a man candy post? Here are some of the hottest guys in Hollywood, in my opinion:
 
Luke Bryan

Chuck Bass
 
Ryan Gosling, which I think is 80% because of The Notebook.

Ryan Reynolds

Josh Duhamel


Channing Tatum

Scott Porter
 
Matthew McConaughey

Who makes the top of your list? Have a wonderful Wednesday!

A Different Kind of Summer


This summer will be a bit different for me. For the past 4 summers, I've nannied, so I've hung out for a couple of weeks before the kids got out of school, then worked until it was time for me to go back to school. Of course, the kids got on my nerves at times, but even then I realized how lucky I was to hang out at home with the kids, take them to their country club, and do fun activities with them. This summer, I have a "big girl" internship, which is a bit bittersweet. Of course, I'm excited to soak up everything I can from my internship, which is at a small marketing firm, but I will miss my nannying job, for sure!
 

I'll also be taking three classes this summer (!!!)--2 at night and one online, so this summer will be packed. My internship is full-time and started less than a week after I got home, and will go until the day before I head back to SC. I'm a bit nervous, but excited for this summer. I can't believe this is the last summer before I'm in the real world. It's crazy to think that this time next year, I will have graduated and will hopefully have a real job. I'm so excited to start this new chapter in my life, but it's also very scary! I feel incredibly blessed for the opportunities I have been given--both this summer and all of my previous summers--but it will definitely be different. I'm hoping to find a weekend to head to the beach, and of course lay out at least a couple of weekends. It will definitely be a transition, but one I'm looking forward to! Look out world, here I come!

How did y'all deal with the beginning of your transition into the "real world?" Have a fabulous day!

All White

I love color, and since I'm obviously not married and have only decorated my own space (i.e. my bedroom/dorm rooms for the past few years), I tend to decorate using lots of pink. However, lately I have become obsessed with all white rooms. Something about them just seems so airy, yet elegant. I don't know if I'll ever have an entirely white room, but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy looking at them. Here are some of my favorite inspiration images:
 
Don't you just want to curl up in this comfy white bed?

Love this little sunroom!

I love the idea of a black and white photo wall.

Amazing

Such a pretty, airy lake house bedroom!

So elegant.

DREAM closet!

Do you love the all-white look? Have a wonderful day!
