I’ve ridden a horse exactly one time in my life and I hated every minute of it, but that doesn’t mean I’m not fond of equestrian style so long as it stays in my closet and far, far away from the ranch. I’m kicking myself for not snagging this shirt dress with the recent Friends & Fans promotion.

Not many of us can afford a Marni necklace, but we can all snag the look of the brand’s signature ribbon-tie bauble for much less with this Topshop piece.

And, I’m happy to report that my biggest annual event (a B2B expo and the reason I haven’t been posting often over the last few weeks) went swimmingly yesterday! Months of stress and working weekends paid off and now I’m ready for another vacation. (Isn’t that always the truth?) We’re considering a long weekend in Puerto Rico, which is surprisingly affordable in November.

    So glad your big expo went swimmingly! Now it is totally time for you to head down to a warm wear destination and get your swim on. I’m also loving equestrian but I’m crazy allergic to horses. I pretty much NEED that bag. It is amazing.

    Congrats everything went so well! I think heading off on a long weekend somewhere tropical would be the perfect reward.

    Loving those booties, I think I need to see them right side up 😉

      But they didn’t fit that way! 😉 (And I’m looking for a cheaper alternative. They’re so expensive, but great for inspiration.)

    I love that bag and the sweater! I’ve only ridden a horse once too…and maybe a pony at a birthday party, haha

Snapshots from our recent trip to Philadelphia. Snapshots from our recent trip to Philadelphia. 

Everyone we met in Philly apologized for their gruff nature, despite no one actually living up to that stereotype. 😂
There’s nothing like having a vacation coming up There’s nothing like having a vacation coming up to motivate you to tackle a list of chores and deep clean the house.
It’s so nice to be home after a whirlwind week. It’s so nice to be home after a whirlwind week. We flew out to Philadelphia last Friday for a few days of exploring. It was our first time in the City of Brotherly Love and we loved every minute of it from the architecture to the restaurants, and most of all: the welcoming and friendly people. After that, we had one night at home before a flight to Denver to celebrate my cousin’s wedding. We got back to Madison late last night and have spent the day puttering around the house, getting caught up on laundry, grocery shopping, harvesting the season’s first tomatoes from the garden, and admiring just how much the hydrangeas have grown in the course of a week.
I always get a kick out of comparing views of our I always get a kick out of comparing views of our home today to the photos I took during our home inspection. (Swipe to see our main bedroom then!) While I knew the house had potential, it was hard to look past some of the owner’s “design” choices. Though, it looks like the room was destined to have a warm-toned quilt. 😂

P.S. @schoolhouse just released new colors of their popular Stillwater Floral Quilt!

And, for those interested, I’ve linked my bedroom items here: https://liketk.it/5iC8R

Back in December, we booked @therobeychicago for a Back in December, we booked @therobeychicago for a couple nights in the summer and our long awaited anticipation of lounging by the rooftop pool was finally fulfilled last weekend. It also inadvertently became the weekend I made Dave eat a cheeseburger every day, between @redhotranchchicago, @eatmottst, and @smallcheval. There are worst ways to spend a weekend.

Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until la Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until late last year when we finally bought a bed, mattress, and a set of sheets. We used some of our own extra bedding (tucking in the generous overhang of our king blankets under the queen-sized mattress) and old bedside lamps from our bedroom: functional, but not quite the charming space I’d envisioned.
 
That started to change when I purchased the Popcorn Grid Coverlet from Schoolhouse — an item I’d been eyeing for years — plus some graphic floral pillows. Then came a bright blue round cushion and the sweetest Teig lamp, both generously gifted by Schoolhouse, and the room finally started to come together.
