StyleBurbia

So, you thought I fell off the face of the earth and had shuttered StyleBurbia? I can't blame you. I've been working my tail off and let me tell you, working a ton during the summer is SO NOT FUN. It is even harder because summer is my favorite time of year (besides Christmas).  I should be catching lightning bugs and eating ice cream with the boys and sipping wine with the hubs on our porch while the light lasts well until the night. I am not at all happy about this, but what can you do? So, forgive my infrequent posts and know that it will get better as soon as my work schedule improves. So, here's a quick update on what's been going on via my Instagram feed. Follow me { here }. Happy July 4th! A view of the Freedom Tower and a little Lady Liberty love. Another reason to celebrate?

Hello there friends. It snowed last night AGAIN.  It's still cold today.  It's still grey, but there are a few signs of spring that are keeping me going until spring finally appears. 1- Bulbs poking their heads out of the ground in the StyleBurbia garden (which are now covered with snow). I'm especially excited about the daffodils that Hayden and I planted this fall. 2- A little vacation we have planned to a warm destination that will help bridge the gap to spring.  3- There's just something about this time of year that makes you feel like you can start anew and reinvent yourself. I'm thinking maybe new hair cut and color and wearing a bit more makeup to give myself a new look. 4- Spring trends in fashion and home decor.  Here are some of the trends that I'm loving: MINTY, MINTY, MINTY Asos blouse with folded collar Joe Fresh jeans now available at JC Penney Leather School Boy bag from Joe Fresh ...

So, here's what the pool at the new house looks like now: From the files of StyleBurbia From the files of StyleBurbia Instead of having a safe, strong cover, it has what I like to call a death trap.  So we need to replace that and we also need to replace the lovely, sagging vinyl liner.  It definitely needs some TLC, which it should be receiving shortly.  In the mean time, I am daydreaming about all of the great parties we're going to have over the summer (if we make it into the house- fingers crossed).  I'm planning my pool party outfits- colorful one pieces, floppy hats and super flowy and breezy coverups.  I'm thinking of what outdoor plates and glassware to add to the small collection that I currently have and I'm thinking of all the cocktails and food I'm going to serve.  So, until I can have one of these parties, let's look at some of my inspiration below: Happy Summer!!
