HOMES AND SPACES

aren’t all of these spaces amazing?  i love looking at amazing homes and spaces online just about as much as i love being in a room with 25 wriggly little puppies.  you know, A LOT.  i haven’t been sharing our own home because a.) there hasn’t been a whole lot of progress and b.) i’ve got something else up my sleeve for sharing. but i promise, it’s coming one day and it’ll be well worth the wait!  for now, click through and check out more of these spaces for some inspiration:  1  /  2  /  3  (and see more interiors and exteriors that get me excited here!)

LACE DRESS, MEET ARMY JACKET

i just love the mix of super girly with a bit of tomboy.  case in point: this white lacy dress with sheer bits (does it get more girly?) and this army boyfriend jacket.  they are, in my opinion, meant to be best friends. and can we talk about my new sunnies?  i’m obsessed with them.  karen walker can do no wrong in my book.  lastly, i haven’t been to the hairdresser yet this year.  and in fact, i think my last visit was late last summer, which means i’m slowly creeping up on a year.  i’ve been doing my own trims, letting the color just be.  and i pretend it’s part of my master plan.  but here’s the truth:  I AM SO LAZY ABOUT MY HAIR IT’S SHAMEFUL.  please tell me i’m not the only one!  xx- sarah

PEACH AND PISTACHIO {COCONUT MILK} ICE CREAM

it hit 120 degrees here on saturday.  for those of you operating in celsius that equates to roughly THE TEMPERATURE OF THE SUN.  the one and only thing that will make a girl feel better about living on the sun: peach and pistachio coconut milk ice cream.  yes, it’s a taste of heaven. and so easy to make, no heat involved, cleanup is a breeze, etc.   and i promise you it tastes like ice cream, not some half-assed ice cream wannabe.  actual creamy, sweet, rich, ice cream.  except no cow udders were involved in the production.  brilliant, right!? if it’s hot where you are, make this.  if it’s warm where you are, make this.  if you like eating things that taste like heaven, make this.  until tomorrow, xx- sarah  {more after the jump}
