{Kingsdown by the sea luxury fisherman's cottage}

If I was say in the UK today I would have no problem going to the unspoilt and quintessentially English seaside village known as Kingsdown by the sea to stay in the above home. They do rent it out you know. It is located just steps from the sea and has easy access to London just incase one would want to hop on the train and visit the lovely Helena. Isn't it so charming?

P.S. - Happy Weekend!

AHHH relax

I have been trying to nail down some accommodations for our upcoming trip to the beach and boy do I ever have coastal fever. I really do LOVE what is going on in the above photo but it didn't end there so for a bonus how about some images that came from a tiny beach cottage getaway, owned by West Elm's creative director. I love how relaxed this space is...just like how I want to feel when I first lay eyes on the ocean next month.

Happy Friday Folks!

{spanish cottages and the parker hotel} PALM SPRINGS

(above via Dumbwit Tellher}

I went crazy for the Dumbwit Tellher post yesterday on Palm Springs. In fact I can't wait for the next part of her post. What got me though was the above Spanish cottage @ the Viceroy. I AM A SUCKER for Spanish cottages and stripes.

I would even consider (in my dreams) the below Palm Springs home offered by Landa-Stevens.

Then after persuing the Parker hotel in Palm Springs I was quite enjoying taking a virtual tour of the hotel via their website. Want to see...

Alright who is in for a Palm Springs trip? Should be nice this time of year:-)
