I inherited these brass candle holders from my great aunt, and, when I saw they had a clear mark on them, I decided to look it up. I found the same exact ones on several vintage sites — some are a steal, some are absurdly expensive. Take your pick!

I’ve been informed that, no, white jeans do not count as wearing wide leg, so, here I am, continuing to resist jean trends over here 💁‍♀️

Block print dresses from Etsy are my trick to feeling pulled together but even more comfortable than if I was in athleisure.

Labor Day is starting early for me! Taking off on two trips tomorrow (okay, work trips, but still), and excited to explore two Virginia towns. One I’ve only passed through and one that’s an all-time favorite of mine. But, for now, a quick flashback to a few weekends ago in Warm Springs.

Found a few of this @farmrio dress on secondhand sites!

#LTKSeasonal

Richmond for about 7 hours today to judge the beauty and style category for the Virginia Living Made in Virginia awards. Just enough time to debut this bold dress (because being a style judge merited bringing some style).

Hi there!

You’ve come to the right place if you historic homes, vintage and antique finds, timeless style, dressed up at home entertaining, and easy weekend getaways to classic properties on the East Coast and beyond. I love collecting too much glassware, finding new latte recipes, and tending to (overwatering) my garden. I’m a writer and designer, and I share both here when I remember to.

I’m thrilled you’re following along!

The daybed life is the life for me ☀️

We’ve ordered from Samplize several times already in this house. When we were deciding on hall colors, Samplize was a lifesaver. My contractor was adamant that once he’d prepared the walls, no additional paint should go on or it could cause flashing even once painted. Samplize was the only was to test out colors beyond a tiny swatch. I ordered tons of whites and a few wild card colors for the hallway, and it was one of those wild card colors that ended up being our choice (Nelson Blue). Had we not used Samplize, we probably would have gone with a neutral.

We used it again in the dining room, where we were between a slew of different blue-greens. I wanted to get just the right color — not too vivid, not too muted. We put about 8 different Samplize samples up initially, then narrowed it down day-by-day until we landed on Stratton Blue (starting to see a color theme here?).

With the front of the house, I wanted to take extra precautions not to get flashing and I didn’t want to mess up the color choice because that’s an expensive mistake to make. I put the colors up and left them for about a week, looking at them each time I went out the front door to take in the hues at different times of day and in different weather.

#LTKHome

Really nailed the Victorian ghost look with this one 💙 But, really, I’ve been wearing this super lightweight nightgown multiple times a week this summer. So pretty and SO comfortable.

If the forecast is going to be 97 degrees, at least take me back to Palm Beach 🌴

Adding a little extra glow to our balcony with this @graypantsstudio LED Wick candle ✨ It perfectly lights up our balcony for evening happy hours (though it’s the real MVP as my night light when I go to bed too late…). Definitely a splurge, but so well designed.

This feels like the exact vibe I want to cultivate all summer long — perfect spring temperatures, flowy white sundress, wildflowers, and sunny skies included ☀️

Frolicking on the Virginia mountains on a perfect 75-degree late May afternoon. This pretty and lightweight @walkerandwade dress is the stuff of summertime dreams 🤍

Classic + simple

#LTKSeasonal

In my Ina Garten era.

#LTKFestival

Coastal season has begun, and these @frankandeileen pieces are basically the capsule wardrobe of coastal.

#LTKSeasonal

This gorgeous blue and white dress is comfy for wearing around the house, chic with gold earring and sandals, and it’s on sale for $40!

#LTKfindsunder50 #LTKSeasonal

This is my “come over here and spill the tea” look, and I plan on wearing some variation of this every day until fall. I’m usually in cotton dresses during the week, but this beautiful silk number from @nataliemartincollection is the perfect dressed up caftan option. Totally timeless and luxuriously comfortable.

#LTKSeasonal

Mid-May and I’m still in jeans and long-sleeve tops? This is my kind of spring. And, yes, I’ve found the perfect pair of white jeans — the Galway jeans from @frankandeileen are incredibly comfy, wide leg but not flare, and have a casually sophisticated look. I’ve worn them with heeled sandals for a night out and flats for day. Definitely an “I’m wearing them no less than three times a week” spring and summer item.

#LTKSeasonal

Glassware can match without ~matching~. These Highgate lowball tumblers and drinking glasses from @smithhonig all have the same intricate detailing but I mixed up the jewel tones for a richly colorful look. I added in sage linen napkins, also from @smithhonig, to tie the look in with the room. It feels deep and saturated, but still vibrant enough for spring and summer.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKhome

Block print summer begins.

Keeping coastal grandmother a thing this year

#LTKSeasonal

These white jeans are going to be my summer staple 🙌

#LTKSeasonal

Ended up with a dreary day in DC, but I’ll be back here for a hopefully sunny day next week to open the pool and, hopefully, put this darling matching block print cover up + tote from @rockflowerpaper to use 💙

I used Samplize samples when I chose the blue-green for my dining room, so I was back at it for the exterior of the house. This decision felt SUPER weighty because, if we got it wrong, that’s a $$$ decision. I ordered 8 samples from Samplize ranging from a dark sage green to a blue-green gray. It was a super quick process to narrow it down to three, then I left those up all week (through torrential downpours!). Coming home to the big samples all week gave me a better idea of what the colors would look like than if I just stood outside with swatches. On the last morning, we went with the dark horse candidate — one I threw in my Samplize cart on a whim. And it looks GORGEOUS on the house. Truly a night and day transformation (though every time I say that, I think actually the house looks like night now, whereas it was day yelllow before...).

Also, I’ve linked all the colors we ended up using on LTK! There’s both @sherwinwilliams and @benjaminmoore in there — @samplize has both, along with a bunch of other brands!

#ad — after using @samplize before on my own!

#LTKhome

The perfect lightweight dress for that first warm spring day. Love this little cotton number from @never_a_wallflower 🩵
