valentine's gift guide for him

a night at the beach house.

talk about roughing it.

my sister recently bought a house by the beach and got the keys on friday. even though the house was totally bare, we wanted to spend the last weekend there before the kids went back to school this week. so we packed up our sleeping bags, all the necessities (so we thought), and headed out after work. the house is great, the neighbors are friendly, the location is convenient to the stores...i know it's eventually going to be an amazing place to hang out. but that night? i couldn't sleep a wink on the ground, it was cold, we had no coffee maker, and no mirror...eek!

pics and details below.

wearing a fun top from Patty's Closet. you can't go wrong with versatile basic black blouses. i always look for something that sets them apart, like the cute shoulder cut-outs and buttons down the back on this one.

how did you spend the first weekend of 2014?

mini-she cooking burgers on the griddle since

the new stove is on its way.

the burgers were really good, except the girls didn't take into consideration how big the buns were!

this puzzle was our evening entertainment since there was no tv/cable yet.

early morning walk on the beach before heading back to the house for breakfast. the kids cooked for us again...eggs, bacon, and pancakes on the griddle.

this is the north shore's cold raging sea in the winter.

rolled up jeans.

come summer, there will be a lot of cute sandals and flats to show off, so i've been playing around with my cuffs lately...sometimes i like a wide cuff, sometimes thin, or sometimes i like it messily rolled up. bonus is when they have a contrasting color. you can check out my vine clip of JustFab's signature skinny

with a contrasting hem here.
