I’m trying to figure out a way to live inside the Simon Pearce summer catalog. It’s full of gorgeous and inspirational images that make me want one of everything they’re selling. I’ve been carrying the catalog with me everywhere I go as a sort of reference guide. It’s prettier than most shelter magazines! (Even Martha Stewart agrees: she recently featured items from the Simon Pearce Corinth line in a segment about arranging peonies.)

and i’m adding the simon pearce book, a way of living, to my amazon wishlist.
I love this outfit + would wear it everywhere; every day. See the full Helmut Lang resort collection at Style.com.

School’s out and summer is in full swing. We have a full weekend of baseball games ahead of us (which actually kicked off last night). As summer usually passes in a flash when there are sports/kids involved, I’m hoping this year is a little slower than usual. More time being; less time frantically doing. (And plenty of time for enjoying.)
On with the Five:
- iPhone 151/365
- untitled
- last peony
- Beginnings and ends are fluid
- i love…
I’m always sad when peony season ends, but I noticed that my hydrangeas are coming on strong. Something to look forward to. See you Monday.
Two shopping items of note to close out the week. First, Suann relaunched her simplesong design site this week and it’s beautiful! I blissfully clicked through her portfolios as it was fun to see what she’s been up to of late. (Lots of pretty paper is what.) Don’t miss her updated shop section where you’ll find plenty of charming paper goods from personalized to ready-made. Second, ADAM (maker of fantastic tee shirts as well as my favorite resort collection for 2011 so far) has offered simple + pretty readers 15% off orders placed at shopadam.com through June 30! Simply enter “simplepretty” as the promotional code, and happy shopping!

Francisco Costa and I are of one mind when it comes to the components of a pretty dress: muted, understated color? check. tailored, subtle details? check. American minimalism at its best. (Okay, so we diverge a bit when it comes to shoes, but I’m willing to overlook it.) See the full Calvin Klein resort collection at Style.com.
