A Dose of Pretty

{The Pacific Palisades (aka, where Beverly Hills meets the ocean) is always a good idea.}

The past few weeks went by like a blur of busyness. From our move for the summer to our trip to New Orleans, each day felt like it rushed by faster than expected. What I loved most, though, was taking the time to truly savor the little moments, even amidst the chaos. I loved that we spent time exploring our neighborhood before the move – let’s just say that San Clemente and San Juan Capistrano are such cute towns I must go back to visit {and, um, how had I not gone there before?!}, while the Pacific Palisades fulfills my lifelong dream of finding a city where “Beverly Hills meets the ocean.”

I also enjoyed getting to explore my 33rd state {I’ve now, officially, been to 33 states and 33 countries}, where I happened to fly to a literal day after our move ended. While I was a bit exhausted {to say in the least} in NOLA – and came back to still stuffed suitcases {and, to be honest, some there is still a bit left to unpack} – I was very grateful to get to explore Louisiana and see another southern state just a few weeks after our family reunion in Charleston.

This weekend I’m thrilled to go visit beautiful Lake Tahoe with a picnic lunch, and celebrate Father’s Day with a yummy dinner + lots of board games. I hope you have a great one as well and enjoy our last few days of spring {even if it already feels like summer in California}. x

{My new favorite candle embraces the sweet spices found in chai (fun fact: chai is the Hindi and Sanskrit word for tea).}
{A gorgeous day in San Clemente that showcases SoCal’s May gray/ June gloom, perfectly.}
{Deep pink roses that have fully embraced the “think pink” Barbiecore trend.}
