I know what my next home will look like!

It has been popping in front of me. Do I really?

Do I really want THAT simple? 

THAT modern? 

THAT different?

YES! I want simple, and bright, and clean.

I  WANT space allowing me to be ME. 

MY next HOME has been popping in front of my eyes 

here it is

It all started with Alexandra Schulman's photograph on INSTAGRAM 

Ah the shapes, the ligne, the simplicity of it! 

I'd be light like a feather

and FREE to imagine myself

Then it was Kasey's photo 

(one of my favorite bloggers who turned her life around, the same time my life turned and now is turning again!)

Followed by my one of my style icon's home 

(the other one is Ines)

CINDY'S

HERE

Oh yes, I can do with a clean slate!

All white house ... by the beach

Do I lovE  a house by the beach!

Do I lovE me white!

Yes I do! 

When I found this home on TUMBLR my heart skipped a beat.

I love the sofas

The wooden armchairs 

(I have a pair that can be perfectly transformed)

The throw

and most of all the bedroom

Happy 4th of July !

An American Dream Home in Cape Cod

This morning I went with my eldest for a quick shopping trip. She needed a pair of trousers, as she had ended up her youngest brother's old pair that no longer fitted. Anyhow. In the shop I saw me a lovely t-shirt with a stamp that read Cape Cod. As I am a good mother, I didn't buy the t-shirt, but invested in a cotton dress and jacket for my eldest who, I think deserves any penny for all her efforts.

 ( I did see a lovely rope bracelet, too. sigh!)

So,

The next best thing is to look for real Cape Cod and All-American summer homes

and

even better

to share them here on my blog. 

This is my favorite.

Fairview is one of the most spectacular properties in Woods Hole and arguably on the whole east coast.

I love sunny and airy and beautiful views.
