Sunday
I spent the past 5 days in Amsterdam discovering all things adorable and Dutch. What a wonderful city. There is so much to uncover and adorable treasures to hunt for! Have you been on vacation lately? It’s always a nice change of pace to get out of where you live for a bit, no?
I’m going to tell you about places like here and here or here and here that I found in Amsterdam within the next week or so, so stay tuned!
Riding a bike in Amsterdam is so much less stressful than riding one in Paris…. the cars respect you!
. . . . .
Today I’ve been listening to this and this.
I’m obsessed with my new teapot from here and oodles of tea I got here.
Have you seen the cute bike accessories from Kitsch Kitchen?
A glimpse at la vie à l’américaine through the lens of Making Magique. I’m feelin’ a pinch of nostalgia!
I’m drooling over Olivia’s most recent cupcake recipe.
Watching the Olympics is always so fun, and staple in my television watching habits every 4 years.
This time last year I was in New York scarfing down cupcakes at Butter Lane.
Still not over how gosh darn cute these are.
A glimpse of Zandvoort
I have lucked out with the weather in the Netherlands this week, it’s been hot and sunny!
Yesterday we took the train to Zandvoort to hang out at the beach a bit in the sun. It was wonderful and finally felt like summer. I’m pretty sure a large portion of the population of Holland was there, as it was quite crowded!
I’m loving discovering Amsterdam oh so much and can’t wait to share my finds on here with you.
Until then, I’ll see you on Twitter, Pinterest and Facebook!
Couronne de fleurs
How much more girly girl can one get while spending a weekend in the countryside?
These crowns were made with miss Olivia of Oh la la livia, as were some of these shots above! More photos from this amazing weekend are in store!
Oh, Little Pont Au
Last Sunday Louis and I drove up to Pont Audemer, where I studied abroad when I was 16 for a year. This Normandy town is just so charming and full of adorables: flowers and canals and colombage. It’s always refreshing to go back and remember the strolls down rue de la République or running to the boulangerie in between classes. It seems so long ago.
This previous weekend we headed down to Montargis for the weekend with some friends. Stay tuned for pictures of probably what is the most picturesque weekend in this year so far!
How are your summer weekends? Enjoying some sun rays?
