Apologies for yesterday’s radio silence, I blame summer. But I have a great round up of new things for today!

rockie bag, navy sandals, yellow dress, blue print dress, black dress,

black top, pom basket, floral dress, chambray dress, colorblock flats,

green dress, stripe dress, pink floral dress, black flare dress

 

Soooo that off the shoulder green dress is under $90 and it’s the prettiest shade! I just ordered that flare sleeve black dress (and will probably need to wear it with my favorite pair of spanx shorts, seriously thought they’re the best) as well as that black top! Really loving that pink floral dress at the bottom, and that cold shoulder floral dress, too.

It was the families in the pool painting that caught my eye while browsing around Etsy tonight. Then it was the swim team practice piece that cinched my love for Jorey Hurley’s art (possibly due to my evenings spent at the pool for Lilly’s swim team practice and meets…). I love the colors, and each piece is visually impactful.

I’m so excited to share my friend Haley Mathewe’s new art site! She’s a Charleston artist with a background in costume design and fashion retail – so Haley’s main field of subject is naturally the female form!

One of Charleston’s favorite past times is gathering for a good party. We love to sit and visit. Sometimes we throw it together and t’s super casual, and other times we put on the ritz. And very few put on the ritz as well as my friend Calder Clark!

Calder & Mrs. John L. Strong (Manhattan’s notorious & century old stationer) threw a beautiful dinner party at Sarah Hamlin Hasting’s amazing home (look back at her home tour here) to celebrate the stationer’s expansion to Charleston!

I love this floral piece below, and when I mentioned it to Calder she said that a beautiful antique sculpture like this is just poised (and literally made) for fresh blooms.

These passed trays of homemade truffles by Cru Catering was my most favorite part of the dinner :) What a cute idea!
