a mélange of finds + favorites
- Leather journal / sketchbook - this handmade journal would make a great companion on lazy days and summer road trips... it's from Etsy's Daniel Heywood
- Crème brûlée - with Bastille Day (France's National Holiday, le 14 juillet) coming up this weekend, Chronicle Books is having a giveaway to win a load of French-inspired goodies. All you have to do is pin (I pinned this crème brûlée - the recipe is from Rachel Khoo's The Little Paris Kitchen recipe book).
- Huile Prodigieuse - after reading about this lauded dry oil everywhere, I wanted to find out if it lived up to the hype so I picked up a bottle last summer in France. In short,... in does. It makes your skin feel soft and silky and smells divine, like a sunlit escape.

I love that journal! It's gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it? The leather looks so supple too. I have a soft spot for papeterie and paper goods...
DeleteWhat a lovely triptych. And, oh! that journal! Love it. (Visiting from Little Things Thursday.)
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by Dotti :)
DeleteLove the leather journal. I have a similar one and no matter what it is that strikes me a fancy to write I feel very Hemingwaynian. :)
ReplyDeleteHa! So true Marie-Angelique, I feel the same way :)
DeleteLoving that journal as well -- at least, I'm in love with the thought of having a journal that I would actually use. So very chic! :)
