Candles

Candles are something that I always like to have burning at home because they set the mood for a room as soon as you walk into it. They immediate relax me when I've had a stressful day and are the perfect way to create a welcoming home.  I tend to go for more natural or clean smelling scents such as beach sand or fresh linen in warmer months and pine around Christmas time.  Over the years I've found that I keep coming back to the same brands time and time again.  I'm always disappointed when a candle is either too strong or doesn't throw a scent at all. The candles listed below are by far the best that I have come across.

Bike Ride Through Watch Hill

While looking through my camera roll on my way back from Florida earlier this week, I stumbled across these photos and realized I never put them on the blog! These were taken about a year ago when my friends, Kiel, Sarah, and Dave, and I spent the day in Watch Hill. Sarah had to shoot the Lilly Pulitzer suite at the Watch Hill Inn. When we were done we spent the day riding these cute Lilly Pulitzer bikes around town and finished with a late lunch at the Ocean House.

Home Crush of the Month: An "Eothen" Reproduction

I don't think you could get more perfect than this month's Home Crush. As soon I saw this home, I was obsessed. As beautiful as it is, it's the location that truly got my attention.
