big jumps

a catchy little ditty
for a bit of mid-week inspiration..




i'm going through lots of creative changes right now..
(completely self-inflicted changes)
..pushing myself to explore my photography
in new and exciting ways
(oh so new and exciting to me)
and i find that the words to this song
are really inspiring and just right there
where i am
right now

because to me
truly living a creative life involves
taking chances
going on explorations
(inside and outside ourselves)
and
moving (jumping) beyond that comfortable place
and into the place
that gives you goose bumps
(you know the one..the scary one..where you feel most alive)

hope to see you there.

al fresco


if i could have it my way





i'd eat outside each and every day




..and bathe too
(it's true)

everything's more adventurous out in the fresh air.
don't you think?


(merci mrs. french)

happy friday kids!



there have been
lots of parties and gatherings this summer
and they have me thinking of themes for one that i'd like to throw
(besides my 'game day' for which i am gathering the likes of
bocce ball, badminton and croquet..but more about that another time..)






something old fashioned..retro..with vintage hats..
maybe with piles of them at the front door
for guests to choose from..



with good old fashioned refreshments..
singapore slings, gin fizzes, mint julips,
(and maybe a few shirley temples)
out in the garden

{postroadvintage}

under strings of paper lanterns

with lots of ella and louie playing



which hat would you pick to wear?


it's summertime
it's friday
here's to doing something festive..

and wishing you a happy happy weekend!
