late summer at the lake house

Hooray! Twisted Moss has been featured on the Front Page recently! I love the rustic and warm feeling from this treasury. Check out all the gorgeous items here.

easy like sunday morning

Sundays, in all their beauty, are filled with laziness and indulgence. I love waking up late and trying different brunch spots with my boyfriend. How do you spend your Sundays?

Enjoy your Sunday lovelies! xo

P.S. Here's a little shop update - plenty of gorgeous dresses!

to the max

The maxi skirt may be one of my favorite trends this upcoming fall. The lengthy skirt is less form-fitting alternative and the best part about the maxi skirt is that it only requires a few easy pieces to create the look. With the different styles for these skirts you have the option to dress up or go casual. Jersey maxi skirts paired with a simple tee is a great way to start. For a more romantic take, try the drapey and flowy version à la Kate Bosworth. So from mini to max, would you wear the long skirt trend?

I love lazy summer days! I’m about to take a break and squeeze some reading time and make a fruit salad. Here are the latest from the shop, enjoy lovelies.

i left my heart in sf

A sweet and short trip to San Francisco. We’ve been here countless times and this city never disappoints. We spent most of our time exploring and eating around places we’ve missed during our last visit. If you plan on visiting, make sure you give these places a try:

- House of Prime Rib: The cut is on par with Lawry’s, but I like this place better because of the sides and the au jous.

- Swan Oyster Depot: The menu is limited, but everything is really good. My favorite was the Kumamoto Oysters.

- R&G Lounge: Solid chinese food. You must try their signature dish, the salt and pepper crab.

- Tommaso Ristorante Italiano: Tastiest italian spot in North Beach. The fresh spinach and shaved parmesan pizza will literally melt in your mouth.
