Hello, this is Leigh from Marvelous Kiddo, and I'm so honored to be here!
When I got to thinking about a theme for this post, I couldn't get my mind off the winding-down of Summer. I love this bridge season we're in here in the North East United States, when I'm trying my best to relish the muggy, numbered days of August, yet I just can't help getting a little excited about the crisper time that will soon arrive.
With this in mind, I've assembled a series of images and things that inspire and excite me by evoking a sense of the delicious last days of Summer and the beckoning of Autumn.
I want to buy them, make them, be there right now.
This gorgeous line of sustainably-made children's clothing
This deliciously cluttered loft
This versatile, reversible ring sling
This breathtaking setting for a meal
These perfect little Minnetonkas
These magical votive lanterns made of orange peels
This adorable handmade costume
This vision of a fun weekend retreat
What are you feeling these days?
i loooooove that chakra skirt. and pretty much all the other links.
ReplyDeleteI am going to miss summer! It's always filled with fun times for everyone. I'm ambivalent about autumn. I wish summer could stay longer though. My daughter wants to go places with water still.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Leigh! These past few days I've been loving the late August sun setting over the lake- we go to the beach and collect rocks and just listen to the waves, run our fingers through the sand. Any colors and all colors of an autumn-is-nearing beach is my favorite right now!

Fall is my favorite time of the year, but it's just starting to get really hot here- so it definitely doesn't feel ready to say goodbye to summer, quite yet.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure I'll get there quickly when my kids return to school next week:).
love, love, love this list. i'm wishing that first outfit was available for mamas and not just baby girls!
ReplyDeleteI SO want that teepee. We have the perfect spot for one, and I need to get it before our nieces and our friends kids get too old to play in it!
ReplyDeletei've been feeling SO not ready for summer to end, and even anxious about the inevitability. so this helps. thank you!
ReplyDeleteThat skirt is adorable! Love all the pictures!
ReplyDeleteThat handmade costume too!!
Here in SD we are only on about day 3 of proper summer, so we are not ready for fall at all! hoping for lots more sunshine here ...
ReplyDeletethat little girls outfit is just too cute.
ReplyDeleteI believe that I need a teepee in my life.
