Blowing Rocks

May 7, 2015 by jessica 4 Comments

05062015-1v2

Jupiter, Fla. is one of my favorite places in the state mostly because of the Blowing Rocks Preserve. It’s got nothing on the jagged coastline of California, but it’s gorgeous in its own right with interesting rock formations and deep turquoise water. Now, I’ll be the first to admit that I was entirely overdressed for this outing. (There’s not a lot of flexibility for midday clothing changes when you’re on vacation and away from the hotel!) That didn’t stop us from kicking off our shoes to stroll along the ocean’s edge until we were ready for lunch at Little Moir’s Food Shack. The small restaurant–with the best seafood ever–is tucked away in an unassuming strip mall. Be sure to order the signature sweet potato-crusted fish. They also have an impressive beer lineup.

While we’re on the topic of must-know info, the earrings I’m wearing are from Emma McKinstry’s summer lineup. She’s pretty much a maestro when it comes to bold enamel jewelry.

The Coveted

CurrentlyCoveting-050715

This week, I’m coveting:

  • An inflatable swan for lazy days in the pool. (The pool we frequent is on the small side, so I won’t actually be able to get away with this.)
  • This beautiful off-the-shoulder dress. Blair wore it last week and it sold out instantly. Some sizes have popped back, so be sure to add it to your wish list to receive an email notification when it’s in stock. (That’s how I snagged a size medium, which should arrive tomorrow.)
  • An understated ring that isn’t short on details.
  • A carefree maxi dress to pack for your next vacation. (It’s only $130!)
  • A cheeky box of matches.
  • Pineapple stud earrings. You know how much I love a cute pineapple motif.
  • Lancome’s Shine Lover Lipstick. I can’t decide between “Effortless Pink” or “French Sourire.”

Lilly in Palm Beach

May 4, 2015 by jessica 15 Comments

Outfit05042015v1

What better place to break out my newest Lilly Pulitzer dress than Palm Beach? We just drove up for the morning to walk around Worth Avenue and pop over to the Lilly Pulitzer store where I bought this tunic as an early birthday gift to myself. I’m completely obsessed with this dress, so much so that I’m considering the other print. It looks scandalously short on the model, but it’s really not that obscene. I’m 5’7″ and I didn’t feel like I was on the verge of flashing anyone…until we went to Delray Beach that afternoon for a quick stroll. Every breeze flirts with the hem!

Bauble of the Week

May 3, 2015 by jessica 2 Comments

bw-050315

Gripoix is a new-to-me French jewelry brand that was founded in 1868 Augustine Gripoix. Instead of using gemstones, colored glass is set into intricate metalwork. This season’s designs, now available for pre-order, are heavily influenced by the Art Deco period. These hoop earrings are my favorite of the collection, but these are a close second.

SIP
Gear up for the Derby today with a julep while you place your bets. If you’re lucky enough to be in Louisville this weekend, check out this guide for the best places to dine. You can also learn how each Derby horse was named here.

TRACK
You may have noticed that Iconosquare recently monetized its analytic capabilities and it’s not exactly affordable at $200 a month. Here are some inexpensive alternatives. (Edit: Iconosquare sent out an email on Saturday admitting that it may have been a little shortsighted to charge so much per month. They’ve gone back to the old version for now.)

LEARN
Hate to break it to you, but the croissant’s origins aren’t actually French. Learn more about the iconic pastry here because everyone loves a know-it-all at brunch.

WEAR
I’m on the hunt for a sexy lariat necklace. I love the length of this version.

CONTOUR
You’re living under a rock if you haven’t heard about contouring yet. I’ve been using the Clinique sculpting stick and this highlighter, but I kind of prefer the French approach to this beauty trend.

COOK
Fresh produce is the best part of summer. Make this asparagus and poached egg salad for brunch.

Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hi Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hit peak bloom right around my birthday on May 30. My mom would fill a large crystal vase with fresh-cut stems, and their scent would waft through the house. 

Now that I live a few hours south and lilac season wraps up earlier, the blooms actually mark the start of my birthday month.

Snapshots from the past week: • Spent quality t Snapshots from the past week:

• Spent quality time with my favorite cat

• Snapped a lot of Lily content

• Drove home with a new lilac in the passenger seat
Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours this year, and the cute Teig Lamp from Schoolhouse is such a charming addition to the space. It’s named for the German word for “dough,” which is perfect for its soft, petite shape.

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.
