much love monday.

i like to use monday as a way to reflect on the previous week, to start anew, and to send a little love into the world.  won't you join me?    

today i am grateful for:

the first of 3 weddings in 4 weeks! 

pictures worth a thousand words:

{took advantage of jess lc's flash sale & added the cross body to my bag collection - perfect travel pair, i think!}

{oh hello, searswillis tower!  my goodness, you're tall}

{mason jar flowers from a northern michigan flower stand - i always buy from them on my way back to chi}

{picnic with c at ravinia for LOTR accompanied by the CSO}

{c's cousin's wedding in saratoga springs, ny}

{a day at the races with c's family!}

this week's blog love:

• i already knew sophie of the littlest things had amazing style.  but this round-up of her sicily trip ensembles is just beyond.  very lazy chic!
• mixtapes & cupcake's features kate beckinsale's sultry editorial for mean magazine.
• an interesting spin on what it means to be "green" by home (half humorous, half serious!).
• plush palate has sheryl crow's hollywood estate, and it's pretty darn fabulous.  see the rest, including the stunning landscaping, here.
• alaina of live creating yourself needs a disco ball in her apartment.  i concur!
• events like this one in nyc, captured by the divine jamie of from me to you, keeps my faith in humanity (lol).

here's to another grateful and love-filled week.
