Lawrence is so Lovely

One of my very favorite things is finding new and wonderful vintage inspired sites! 


Lawrence is a lovely little site just launch by the beautiful Frankie Zmetra. 


This site has an array of feminine pieces from the 20's to 90's and every decade in between. To get a little more perspective on the woman behind the shoppe, check out her inspiration tumblr.

A Really Good Friday

My mister planned an extra special day for our Good Friday holiday this year. I told him early in the week that I just wanted to relax on my day off and did not want to do ANY planning for the weekend. I am the perpetual planner of most events and parties with friends and family. So sometimes I just want to take a vacation from planning vacations!! 

The mister succeeded in perfect style with a lovely holiday afternoon full of delight!! He surprised me with a trip to the Dallas Arboretum  complete with champagne and yummies. 


We had an incredible afternoon laying on our cozy blanket eating and sharing secrets. I felt transported to my own little garden filled with hidden nooks and countless flora. 


What did you do for the holiday? Do you have any special plans for the Easter weekend? I would love to hear all about them!!!

He carried them through the snow

sen·ti·men·tal/ˌsentəˈmentl/Adjective

1. Of or prompted by feelings of tenderness, sadness, or nostalgia.

Anyone who knows me, knows that I am a bit of a sentimental soul and there are two things that evoke my sentiment without fail. Flowers and snow.

This week both showed up at my doorstep and warmed my heart beyond compare. I grew up in the midwest so the snow always brings a childlike joy with its chill. For a brief moment, I got a little lost this week in the falling flakes and the nostalgia.

My mister delivered the second half of the delightful day, a precious bundle of hydrangeas. The unexpected lovelies were the perfect compliment to the perfect day.
