a condensed version of my weekend: link up

I love weekends like these, where we have Monday holidays. They are so absolutely wonderful. We get to wake up on Monday and think, oh I don’t have to work today! How wonderful is that?!

I love how feminine they look-I don’t understand their name either. I especially love them when they are paired with buttons right-down-the-middle. It screams Paris and makes me feel like I’m back there already. Walking those bumpy cobbled streets, smelling the fresh flowers as you pass by every other store, hearing the locals speak French-and, gosh-darn-it you can’t understand a lick… Read More
