As I mentioned in a previous post - I painted an old bookcase a tropical blue color this weekend.
I love having new pieces in my house ... I just look at it and smile.
I am slowly basing all of my living room design on these two Beach Boys album covers.
Here's more fun buys to make that happen ... I'm sensing a beach theme these past few weeks.
I can't help it ... I have so.cal in my heart but live in the tundra of no.minn

I'm adding this top because I think it's uber cute and I want to figure out how to make it.

Drive safe

This post is for my friend who got in a motorcycle accident this weekend. He suffered a broken arm, was air lifted to a hospital ... and worried my sister and I half to death when he never showed up in town like he was supposed to. Big sigh that he is home safe now!

summertime ...can't come fast enough

with record lows here today I can't help but continue to fight the weather and opt for a skirt as often as I can ... if only I could wear flip flops too!

out by the sea

Not only is today Super Tuesday ... and Fat Tuesday ... it's also my BF's BDay. So in honor of him I dedicate this post to his second love [after me of course] The Lost Pearl pictured here last summer on our way to the Apostle Islands. Can't wait to head that direction again SOON.
So to my sailor love ... nautical, beach, ocean, sea inspired things for living.
