Sometimes all you need in life is a reminder to take joy in the little things around you. Last week I had a week off and completely unplugged for the majority of it. I felt so much more inspired to write when it wasn’t a last minute chore and spent long car journeys doing one of my favourite things… just thinking.
I thought I’d share the last slices of summer with you this morning before the frenzy of Autumn begins…
Throwing on a beaded dress for a wedding that was just made for dancing…
A new ‘Find’ for my mantle [Find similar here]
Channeling the magic of Stonehenge…
Beach combing…
Remembering that I’m happiest by the sea…
What little things have you been enjoying lately?
Love,
Rebecca

What a lovely lift me up simple post for a Wednesday. Hope the sea stays with you today.
I like this post a lot!! After a SERIOUSLY hectic summer full of amazing activities and moving house etc etc it really was the little things that mattered. For example, after moving in on the 1st July, my husband and I have sat down and eaten dinner together on our new dining table just once. Once!!!
You can keep your tickets to the Games, Lady Gaga, walking over the O2, cocktails, victory parades, fancy pants restaurants, weddings, parties and trips. That is actually way more important.
Three weeks and counting and life will be back to normal and we may get to eat together again…. Maybe?
THIS. After the summer of Olympics and Paralympics on the TV and also being v. busy, we had dinner at the dining room table for the first time in months on Monday! Was lovely and long overdue
P.s. I love that dress! That’s Friday Frock-worthy!?!?
I saw this dress on facebook and loved it. We may have to start a share wardrobe for wedding day attire because we all go to so many and have so many fabulous parties.
In three days I will be here and I can’t WAIT

I’ve been really loving seeing actual courgettes being grown in my garden and then having to give them to people at work as I have too many! I can grow things!
Also I have to confess that I also saw the photo of your white dress on FB last night and also Pete’s shirt that he wore to the same do and I couldn’t decide which one i loved more!
xoxo
’tis a great shirt!!!
Love the dress, where is it from?

PS: Love this post – the hubs and i were just talking on the weekends how the small things make us happy – like having the time on the weekends to visit homebase!!? xx
Having a hint of period pain after 10 months without periods is one of those small things that give me joy at the moment, as we’ve been trying for a baby for months with no success… Who’d have thought that I would so desperately miss the one thing that we all seem to hate?!
Btw, totally agree with Victoria – gorgeous dress!
Ooh love the purple heels you’re wearing with the dress Rebecca, where are they from?!
Nine West Anita – bought them this summer for a different wedding and wore them to my friends wedding with that blue ted baker ballgown-esque dress
