Monday Blues

Good morning, love bugs! Yes, it is Monday again. While I think Mondays can be a bit dreary, sometimes I think they are a good kind of dull, like a peaceful sense of tiredness that naturally follows an exciting weekend. I have termed it the 'Monday blues.' So, take a look at some relaxing blue hues to match the mood of today.


Blue kitchenware.
Blue vintage.

A blue wedding. What a dream.

Blue walls.

Sky blue vintage dress.

Fresh blueberry cake.

Classic blue denim.

Blue shirt, blue jeans.

Blue kitchen.

Blue nature.

Blue scarves. In preparation for the upcoming season.

Blue gate, blue doors.

Matching blue flowers.

Blue accents.

Blue birds, I hope this week starts off on the right note.


XO.

Nice Nails

Good morning, daisies! And a merry Monday to you. I hope your weekends were pleasant, peaceful, and full of smiles. I got to spend a good portion of my weekend with my dear friend Carly and, let me tell you, it has been too too long since we've had a girls' night. We went out to a nice dinner, saw Harry Potter again, and talked each others’ ears off. It was grand.
Another thing I did this weekend was paint my nails. A pretty little violet, summery color. See below.

Endless possibilities

One thing I decided while coloring my nails is this: painting nails is underrated. My friend Chelsea once told me that nail polish is a cheap accessory. And now that I think about it, how true is that?! The right nail color can compliment any outfit, equally as well as jewelry or the right shoes, but without a high cost. Nail polish typically ranges between $2 and $10 (for the really nice kind), and it lasts 1-2 years. Affordable, easy, fun. Win, win, win.


Check out the many avenues of nail polish.
