Father's Day Gift Guide


In case you didn't know or just need a friendly reminder, Father's Day is almost here! Next weekend we will be celebrating one of the most important (if not the most important) man in our lives. There is no doubt that dads play such an important role in who we are and who we become, and I can speak from experience when I say the bond between father and daughter is a special one. I'm sure many daughters out there would agree. My dad is one of my best friends and favorite people, and I am so blessed to have his constant love and guidance. I love you dad!

Straw Market Bags


I first discovered my love of straw market bags in the French Riviera while roaming through the most incredible open air market. The market was filled with every desirable provision you could imagine - fresh flowers, tables full of the most aromatic spices, handmade soaps, jellies and jams ... I could go on and on. And just so perfectly placed adjacent to the market was the cutest little shop selling the quintessential French straw market bags. The second I laid eyes on the classic straw tote I knew one had to be mine. I didn't care that I still had a week left in Europe or a long trip back to the States, it was coming home with me!
