Marimekko Goodies...



Guess what I got when I was in LA {at Reform School to be exact}?


One lovely Fokus mug and one fun Kippis bowl. I have been eyeing that mug for so very long. My little sister, who usually tries to stop me from purchasing things like this actually encouraged me to get it. I hope some of these other great items, like that tablecloth and that tray will come home with me one day too...

Doors and Entries...


Perfection. I keep wanting to do something bold in our entry hall.

Alex Eben Meyer's Home from Design*Sponge


I have had this house in my inspiration file for a while. I think I like it because it has a similar feel to my house. And it looks lived in, not staged.

Paired Down Loft....




Very inspiring space. I love that it is clean and simple but not TOO sparse.

This is how my summer needs to look...


The last few months have been um...trying. I have had enough. I have decided that July is Jessica month. No more tests, no more working overtime, no more stress or drama. Just relaxing, blogging, crafting, spending time with my friends, laying by the pool, exercising...only things and people that make me happy. We kicked the month off with a little sangria girls night last night.

Now who is with me? Do you have inspiration pics that illustrate how you want the rest of your summer to look? Send them on over...this could be fun.

Black, White, and Yellow Bedroom


I am guessing that Sommarhus means that this fantastic room is from some fantastic Swedish summer house. Irregardless, I love it.

Black, White, and Yellow Bedding from Bliss Living


I am often asked the question , "Where can I get black, white, and yellow bedding?" I have to say, it isn't an easy question to answer, because I haven't found many sources myself. Bliss Living just made it a little bit easier with their new collection. Although I am not in need of any more bedding myself, I might just have to get that shower curtain...

Goodies from Toast



Goodies from Toast...Don't they always have the best stuff?
{Side note} I scored a yellow enamel plate with a black rim at an antiques store this weekend...I love it!
