I am finally home from a crazy round of travel. Cincinnati to see my Dad for Father’s Day, South of France for a project, and then back to Cleveland with my Mom to see my 92 year old grandmother. It was a LOT! My body still hurts and I am still catching up on sleep. I will share more details on Cannes/Nice as well as a roundup of June later this week in my weekly email.

I got my first haircut since February this week and it feels so good. I have been keeping my hair healthy and it is growing so long. I wrote a post all about my hair here since it is one of the most frequently searched topics. Who knew?!
Next Saturday, July 7 is the blog’s 2 year anniversary!! Can you believe I have been blogging for two straight years? I can’t! I need help deciding how to celebrate. I am thinking of a giveaway…! Thoughts?
The dress in the above photo of me is one of my Summer Staples, I literally wear, wash, repeat.
I finished “The Lost Vintage” while traveling and I am ready to discuss. Has anyone else read it yet? I just ordered “Beautiful Exiles” which has to do with a love affair with Hemingway.
When I started the blog two years ago, I was in search of a picnic basket for my launch party. I couldn’t find one anywhere unless it was $500. Now they are everywhere. I think Target has a great selection. They have this cute complete set for under $100.

I had the pleasure of meeting Sharon Santoni of the blog, “My French Country Home” here in Chicago this past week. She is the sweetest and has so much energy. She has an amazing blog and I hope to grow up to be more like her! She offers a subscription box called “My Stylish French Box” that is hand curated with luxurious French Brands delivered right to your door. The August Box is almost SOLD OUT and the theme is French Cuisine. I can’t wait to see what is inside. You can order yours here!
