Eye Candy {times two}

This post is a little disjointed, but I wanted to throw a few things in today!
In between working at Pottery Barn, I've been spending time sourcing some e-designs for Cristin from Simplified Bee, who's being so kind and letting me intern for her for the summer! Spending some time online surfing around beautiful images and products, somehow or another led me to Southern Living. Not a stranger to me, this is definitely one of my favorite magazines, so it's just bonus that they have stunning images online, too! If the South is anything like this magazine, I know for a fact I could live happily ever after there.  

Look at the eye candy I found!


Authentic lighting in a cozy Master:

Secret reading nook: 

Peaceful blue retreat: 

Dreamy tall ceilings:  

There are no words for this space: 

And now for some more Eye Candy...hehe (:
If you read my post yesterday, you know I had an eventful weekend! The little surprise I got yesterday was my beautiful first car, that I'm SUPER thankful for!



Hyundai Elantra


I need a name for her...currently my name list consists of Skylar, because the color of the car is "Sky Blue".  Suggestions welcome (:
Happy Monday!
Love,
Photobucket

    Yay! Congrats on the new car lady! :) We almost bought the Elantra when we were car shopping the other month... and then we realized with a baby we could use the extra space so went up to the Sonata. LOVE the Elantra though and hope you do too! Enjoy!

    I think another choice could be Robin because it looks like it is robins egg blue. Or Perry if it is more periwinkle blue.
