Things I'm Loving

I'm so happy this weekend is Memorial Day.  I'm headed to see my best friend Grace in Houston this Friday, and I can't wait to hit up all of my favorite H-town spots (Lupe Tortilla... Kuhl-Linscomb... Tiny Boxwoods... Anvil... The Menil).  It'll be nice to get out of town for a bit and go back to a place I used to call home.  I'm sorry my blog posting has been so sporadic these days.  I keep wondering if my days of blogging are coming to a close.  The inspiration is all still there, the desire to share is still on the surface... but for some reason it's become increasingly hard for me to formulate a thought-provoking blog post.  So, at least for now, I can't promise any sort of structure in my posting schedule- or even any structure in my posts themselves- but I do still plan to be in touch here and there as the mood strikes me.  Today's post is a random compilation of things I dig right now...

Nail inspo (for all you New Yorkers, my favorite nail spot is The Gel Bar):

Swimsuit season is here, and I adore this Tularosa Sofia One Piece, $93:

This shop has an incredible stock of great rugs. I have my eye on this Turkish Rug, 7' x 10', $625:

Pair of white grasscloth nightstands:

Smoking slippers by Soludos:

An embroidered romper (this one is cute, too) in a punchy cherry paired with a straw handbag:

Poul Henningsen pendant in variations of pink:

And lastly, a quote that's hitting home this week:

A few other honorable mentions.... Esther Perel's podcast, this book, the Kips Bay Showhouse (go before it closes May 31st!), this nursery, this exhibit.

XOXO,

Sam
