Hey friends! I’m back with more Tommy Bahama/Self Magazine goodness today in part three of my four post series where I share some Spring/Summer beachy fashion inspiration and exercises to get you in shape for my new favorite sport-stand up paddle boarding! {Play catch up here and here if you missed}
Ok, let’s start with these pants. Crazy good, RIGHT?! I’m pretty much wearing them non-stop. High waisted, comfortable, adorable- they check all my boxes. And on beach days, with this top, I’m just thinking it doesn’t get much cuter (except those two girls running into the ocean with their floaties!) Click through for the second part of the post- exercises to work that upper body! Hope you love! xx- Sarah {Photos: Lou Mora}
Happy Friday my friends! For those of you celebrating a long weekend- horray! I hope you’ve got some fun on the books! We’re in the middle of house projects (we may never again NOT be in the middle of house projects, I’ve come to realize). Good thing we like good project! HA! But we’ve also got some time with friends and some other fun ahead. Lastly, I just want to thank you. Thank you for showing up here and reading. Or just looking… I know that there are those of you who just look at the photos and bounce- I’m grateful for you too. And below, some links I rounded up for your weekend entertainment. I love them, I hope you will too! xx- Sarah {image via}
The most effortless outfits are always my favorite. Case in point- this romper. It’s a throw-on piece, it’ll always work and can be dressed up or down. Layered with a jacket it’s my go-to for these May grey days we’re having where it starts out gloomy and cold but mid morning turns into a perfectly sunny beautiful day! And the Lulu Frost traveler pin (which happens to be my new favorite accessory) adds the perfect little pop to the waistband, don’t you think? Happy styling my friends! See you mañana. xx- Sarah
SHOP THIS OUTFIT: romper: Joie (on sale!), shoes: Joie (also on sale!), bag: Chloe, pin: Lulu Frost, sunnies: Karen Walker (similar)
Stone fruits are coming into season, hallelujah! Cherries are my favorite of all of them- and since they’re so expensive and in season for such a short time they’re like juicy, extra-coveted little gems to me! The amount of flavor in each one reminds me how magical this world is- how incredible it is that the earth provides us with such a vast amount of things to eat, taste, enjoy. We’re lucky ones!
This salad is a mixture of farmer’s market finds- apricots, cherries, heaps of mint, sheep’s milk feta, quinoa and pistachios. So much flavor, so light and perfect for Spring, so beautiful to look at. Magical indeed. Recipe below, I hope you love! xx- Sarah
Hey friends! I’m back again with more Tommy Bahama/SELF goodness! Is this romper not the cutest?! And so, so comfortable- I can’t help but wish everything I put on was this easy breezy! As promised I’m providing a full body workout in these four posts we’re producing, so after the jump you’ll find today’s portion- and it’s all about the ABS! Having a strong core is so important with stand up paddle boarding, so I’ve been working mine like crazy to get in shape. I figure the stronger I am, the longer I can be out on the water having fun and getting in what I consider to be a sneaky workout (one that doesn’t feel like it)! Click through for the rest and work out those abs with me!!! (Here is last week’s post, in case you’re interested!) xx- Sarah {Photos: Lou Mora}
Hi friends! Today I’m SO excited to be partnering with Pottery Barn to share some progress on our living space! As I think I mentioned earlier, when we sold the Palm Springs house the buyers purchased some of the furniture from us. It actually worked out pretty well so that we weren’t starting completely from scratch but also didn’t move into our current home with a bunch of items that wouldn’t work! So, as you can see- we have so many of the pieces from our old living room that we’ve been able to make work in this new house!
I’ve been looking for the perfect ways to update the space to make it feel fresh and new- some smaller changes that would make the couch feel different- and I fell head over heels for these Pottery Barn hand woven pillow covers that add so much warmth and coziness to the couch. I was really looking for some texture to play off the vintage fabric of the colorful pillows we brought along. I also added this cable knit throw which is possibly THE SOFTEST THING TO EVER LAY UPON MY BODY. I’m not being dramatic. It’s legitimately softer than kittens and I think I might have to buy another so that Lou and I aren’t wrestling over who gets to snuggle up in it every night. I’m very aware- not a bad problem to have! I have plans for a few last updates to this part of the room for down the road- and replacing the coffee table is at the top of the list. So looking forward to it all coming together the way I imagine and sharing the final product with you when we’re able to make it happen. Click through to see more of the room!
OK, now for the most exciting part! Pottery Barn is hosting a contest for one lucky winner to receive $1000 gift card to shop for their own Spring refresh! For a chance to win, upload a photo to Instagram OR to the Pottery Barn site and hashtag it #mypotterybarn (you may also be featured on the PB Instagram!) You have until June 10th to enter, so hop to it! Oooooh, I so hope it’s one of you who wins!!! I’m also simultaneously very jealous of that winner! GOOD LUCK MY FRIENDS!! xx- Sarah
