Off to the Beach~

The summer lookbook from CHANCE Co. makes me want to escape to the nearest beach ASAP. 
Let's just close our eyes & feel the sea breeze for a moment... 'Is it Friday yet???'
I really want to stock up on their featherweight cotton stripe boatneck tops!
.
Inspired by nature...this Stone Mat from Miasole is made out of felt & fleece.
This plush floor mat would certainly add a Spa-like-feel to any bathroom!
...sea salt in your bathtub anyone?

    All those beach photos are great but when I think of the beach I think of ALL COVERED IN SAND- like all of us and everything.

  2. Yes, please. I want to be covered in sand and sea salt. I didn't get to beach yet this year.... I need to. I must. I will die soon if I don't. Even if it's the Jersey shore! (gasp) I just need some ocean calm and soothing surf sounds....

  10. We headed out the beach yesterday, after picking up a friend's daughter from school, stashed a bikini in my bag for her, and a pic-nic too.
    The dolphins were dancing close to shore, the seal was somersaulting, and the pelicans were doing the high dive. The best kind of after school special.

    Cheers!

  12. That stone mat looks so real, Lenore Nevermore! I'd love to own one. When I was a boy I used to walk barefoot on stones like that in streams near my home. Thank you for sharing, dear friend Lenore!

  18. How far to the beach for you Lenore?
    Haven't been to one for ages myself.
    Last time a gull pooped on my head.
    Yes really.
    Since then I've heard that it's lucky.

  29. I was just going to comment about those stones and how awesomely warm they must feel when I saw the stone rug! How cool is THAT?!
    Now I have to make one..

  30. The photographs are so good! Sort of Visconti of the 21st century. Beaches and people dressed, in clear colours, and hats, not really very sunny, bring a very special atmosphere. Funny, the hot sun is the toughest thing of summer!

  31. I could seriously own 50 of these shirts.
