Hyannis the Port

Greetings from the Cape!  We are in Hyannis & departing tomorrow for Nantucket for the weekend.


Have you seen these adorable DIY monogrammed straw bags?  Perfect for beach / pool this summer.

I am so in love with these hot pink Lilly arm chairs I can hardly contain myself.  Should I order a few and ship to my storage unit?  That seems criminal.


I'm off for an evening stroll through lanes filled with beauties like these...

VA is for lovers

Hi there from the wonderful state of Virginia!  I flew down from Cape Cod last night for a wedding this afternoon on a farm. 

A little country inspiration for you on this sunny saturday.

Working for the Weekend

I recently spent 48 hours in Charleston.  You can read all about it on my photography blog!

Writing two blogs, my budding photography business, a full time job & a holiday in South America has proven to be quite the challenge for me.  Houndstooth and Lace has definitely been put at the bottom of the priority list lately.  I always wonder how anyone keeps up with full time jobs, full time blogging and full time life....any pointers would be most welcome.

Memorial Day weekend has been busy for me.  We have our boss on board.  We started in Newport and cruised over to Cuttyhunk for a night at anchor.  I had never been there before and it is pretty lovely.  It is so green and natural with smooth rocks scattered on the shore.  Apparently there is a population of around 60 people!  There is no airport there but you can reach the island via ferry or private boat.

Due to the fog we decided to come back to Newport instead of making the trek over to Block Island.  Our guests depart this afternoon and I plan on going on a run around Newport.   I hope everyone has enjoyed the long weekend!  Can't wait to live vicariously through all your blogs! X
