Pillows of Summer

HOME





Pottery Barn Starfish Pillow- Old
Flip Flop Pillow
(I just looked at this website (Seaside Inspired) so many cute things!)

Decorative pillows are great for any room.  I have loved these great sayings to brighten up my beach living room. 

Pottery Barn has some of the best things for the home.  I am addicted to their catalog and website.  Right now, I don't "need" furniture or any of their great items, but I couldn't pass up on these stripe pillows.  Some of the colors are on sale!
All of these pillows paired so well with my green couch.

Tomorrow is Friday!  I hope you all have something to look forward to.  I am trying to get in a trip to the mall with my mom and hopefully some pool time.

What is in the Beach Bag




Trina Turk Beach Towel
Monogrammed Hat
Book- That Night, Chevy Stevens

I am in love with this tote and the color options are endless.  It is perfect for the beach. You cannot go wrong with it.  
Now a day on the beach isn't complete without a great printed towel, a hat, and a good book.  

What is always in your beach bag?
Are you reading a good "beach read?"  Let me know I will need a new book soon.

Nothing Beats a Day at the Beach

Or in my case 5 days at the beach.  Sorry I have been missing on the blog lately, but I was on vacation.  It feels so good to say the word vacation. 

I can honestly say that the beach is where I belong.  In my college years during the summers I used to set alarms to get up and head to the pool or beach, now I set an alarm to head into work.  What is going on here? (I guess its a grown up thing)

So anyway, this past week I packed up my bags and headed to the beach.


Traveling over the Bay Bridge felt great, just to get over to the eastern shore was so exciting.


I was so ready to get to the beach (Ocean City) and put my feet in the sand.  Now Ocean City is not my normal beach trip, but right now anywhere is sand and sea works for me!


We walked the Ocean City, Md boardwalk one night.  That is one spot for great people watching!


But all I wanted to do was put my chair in the sand, relax and read my book.  Nothing is better!  Just to sit and do nothing felt so great.  No work, no problems.



But all good vacations seem to come to end, at least for now.  So when leaving OC, I drove up through Bethany Beach, Delaware.  Bethany is one of my favorite places, I spent 21 summers there growing up and it will always hold a special place in my heart.


Bye totem pole, bye beach.

So with that I head back home and back over the bridge.


And now the hardest part was today.  Heading back to work on a Monday.

I hope everyone enjoyed the holiday and had safe travels. I really can't get over the fact that it is July already.  Does anyone know where this summer is going and why so fast? And what do you all think about the larger pictures?
