Springtime elegance

Light-Light, let there be light!

Let the perfume of Spring and grass and blooms come in from the window. 

Let the air be full of love and fireworks and opportunities that we are preared to grasp. 

Let there be blooms and hope and the beginning of a new sea breeze...

1. When this time of the year comes, I feel the urge to brighten up, to bring in flowers and pastels. This year I am sooo fond of baby blue! 

I need clean sheets 

and a cozy bed 

fluffy and feathery 

for light feathery dreams

And I dream of all those moments of peace and happiness

the simple things that make the heart appreciate 

the beat of life

Welcome Spring!

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!

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

Saturday Blog Loving: Kauai Glamour

Kasey Hill Buick has been a perenial inspiration for me.

First 

I read her blog. It was colorful and honest and full of adventures in the city, reporting from life in Chicago where she built a very cosy bohemia-meets-France home,

before it turned into this minimal chic that you can find here.

Then

she and her family faced some serious relocation trouble 

that I shared at abput the same period of time.

Not knowing it, she stood by me and 

with her example she helped me 

face my own challenges with optimism and some gusto.

Now

she and her family live happily in Kauai

and 

I am glad to report that she has started her own business,

Kampahola

Being a camper myself, 

a Boy Scout Leader 

and a family camper for years,

I appreciate her offer!

In her own words, Kauai Glamping Outfitters is

 a luxury camping outfitting company located on the Island of Kauai, Hawaii. We reserve the campsite, set up the tent just steps from the beach. Our tents are canvas bell {sibley} tents, made to stand up to the sometimes wet weather we get here on the north shore of Kauai. 

Kauai Glamping Outfitters luxury tent accommodations are a memorable way to spend the night or weekend....or as we like to call it......Camp Aloha.

Wanderlusters, we welcome you with big Aloha.

Swim in the sea

I read this post 

about a book that sounded interesting, 

and it trully must be a feast of the eyes, 

an island of fantasy.

But

and his home

And i loved it

His book is called

Great Houses, Modern Aristocrats
