Happy weekend

And it’s here – the Friday we’ve been waiting since Monday is finally happening today! Am I the only one so crazy about this day or there are more like me out there? Anyway, it’s been a long week (just like they all are) and I’m thrilled the weekend is a mere few-hours-period away! What are you plans for the weekend? Something I’ve been meaning to ask you since forever – how do you cope with the insanely hot weather (40+ degrees C around here! (cca 105 F)), are you enjoying some pool time or a real seaside vacation?

I hope you’ll definitely enjoy your weekend, see you next week!

The pictures might not be in sync with the post, but I just loved how cute these flowers are and how can I resist such beauty? Here’s another one:

Happy weekend, loves! xo

By the sea

Today I’m dreaming about living by the sea, in a  chic villa where modern meets timeless vibes of untouched. Even more if living by the sea means living in Greece, on one of their stunning islands that to me feel the biggest treasure the world has. Greek style has something special to it that leaves me in awe every time I see the houses there, color palettes, textures and patterns. Don’t you feel the same? While we’re at it, Santorini still remains my ultimate dream destination, but today I’m all about Tinos – another island with amazing villas!

Call me cupcake

I have to first of all warn you that if you’re hungry/craving something sweet, this post isn’t for you (well it is, but it can be potentially harmful to your state of mind). And secondly, no – I didn’t actually ask you to call me cupcake – this is the name of the food blog that will leave you drooling big time. Linda, the girl behind the blog, loves to bake and she’s good at it – the gorgeous cupcakes, cakes, macaroons she’s making are too pretty to be eaten! So people, deliciousness alert – you’ve been told :)

Cute tea tables

I came across these tables the other day and couldn’t help but sharing my find with you. The tables are so pretty and small yet so functional! They can hold a tea cup or a cookie stand and that’s all, but the design is so amazing that I think I would without second thoughts purchase some of that loveliness! Check them out:

Nursery inspiration

And I’m back with another baby-related post. I have been writing about baby clothes and sharing plenty of inspiration on my Pinterest board, so it’s the right time to share some nursery ideas. Lately I’m very much into elephants and I like everything that has an elephant on it, that’s why it made sense to me that the dream nursery for my baby will be elephant themed (aren’t they the cutest beings ever?!). So here it is the inspiration board, with all the sources:

1 – dresser, 2 – rug, 3 – elephant night lamp, 4 – wallpaper, 5 – crib, 6 – mobile, 7 – rocker, 8 – ottoman, 9 – apple poster, 10 – pear poster.

Have a great Tuesday! xo

Happy weekend & an update

TGIF! Another week is (almost) behind us, another weekend is awaiting to be enjoyed! Don’t you love Fridays?

Before signing off I wanted to give you a photo update on my pregnancy, since so many of you asked for it :). Another reason is that I’m thinking to become a bit more personal with this blog, meaning that I might be sharing more bits of my life with all of you (there will be plenty of fun moments when the baby arrives and I want to share those joyful moments with you – my virtual family).

I’m now 27 weeks and we’re both feeling great. Thanks to all for your support :)

California vintage home

When I saw this home my heart skipped a bit, it was a feeling one has when seeing ‘the one’, whether person, home, couch or things like that. It’s light, cozy, modern yet vintage and it has lots and lots of adorable colors and patterns. It felt like the one for me, because I could easily see myself living there, cooking in a mint kitchen, seating on coral vintage dining chairs or just hanging out in a living room with an awesome rug! What’s your say: yay or nay for vintage homes?

Raspberry & aqua nursery

You know I’m a sucker for bright colors, don’t you? I can’t help myself when I see a good color duo done right, especially when it’s a nursery we’re speaking about (is there anything cuter than a stylish kid’s room?). So perhaps you’ve seen this one already, but I’ll anyway take the chance and share it with you. Done is raspberry and aqua blue, with an accent chevron wall this baby room feels airy and just perfect for a happy girl (not so sure about how would a little guy react when seeing pinks and reds ha!).

Back to reality

Well, hello friends! As I told you on my Facebook page, the lack of posts these past weeks was because I took a break and went to vacation – to Italy to be more precise. We had an amazing 10-day trip visiting Trieste, Venice, Florence, Pisa, San Gimignano and of course enjoying Tuscany – the most picturesque region on Earth. It was awesome to just disconnect from the outside world and enjoy the little things Italy has to offer: gelato (supposedly the best in the world), various pizzas and pastas that are equally delicious etc., but also to get to know the huge, historical value of this country. It was tough to come back to reality, but good thing we have lots of pictures we can stare at now, when our vacation is over :).

Have you visited Italy? If so, where did you go and what would you highlight (Florence’s palaces are my absolute favorite)?

Do you dare?

Ok, I know the title is too dramatic, but who cares when this is exactly what I want to ask you – do you dare going bold color/pattern-wise when it comes to decorating? Do you dare painting your ceiling, staircase, front door the fun and not the traditional way? Although I keep posting about all these colorful interiors I’m not sure I would dare doing it in my home, you know what I mean? So that’s why I’m asking you – would you do it or you’re like me – a passive witness of how other people have the guts to be different (oh, that was so dramatic again!) :)?
