Are you ready for Spring?    I know I am!  Bring on the warmer weather, shorter sleeves and open toed shoes.  Although it’s been Spring for a few weeks now, it really hasn’t felt like it until last weekend.  (I celebrated by going to the beach!)  I finally feel like I can put away my sweaters and scarves, and start wearing all those cute Spring pieces I’ve been buying up.  Take a look at some of my favorite fashion looks for Spring:

Top 9 Coastal Spring Planters

It’s that time of the year again, to repot or newly pot our lovely little plant babies.  I personally like to give them some cute outfits to wear.  Which is why I recently picked up one of these seafoam pots from Anthropolgie.  (see below)  It fits right in with my coastal turquoise home and I love the combo of polished and rough textures that this pot offers.  Check it out along with some of my other top coastal planters for Spring!

Meatless Monday Recipe : Creamy Sweet Onion Sauce and Gnocchi

Are you guys ready for another Meatless Monday recipe?  My creamy sweet onion sauce is super thick and creamy but also completely diary-free!  I made this as a side dish for Easter and it was devoured right away.  Did I also mention that it’s really easy to make?  The whole recipe (gnocchi included) only takes about 20 minutes to make but tastes like it took an hour.  When I originally made this I added some sautéed spinach but feel free to add whatever veggies you’d like or even none at all.  Grab the recipe below:

Ingredients:

• 2 packages dried gnocchi
• 1 large sweet onion
• 1/3 cup cashews
• 1 large clove of garlic or two small
• 1 cup water (more if you don’t want it so thick)
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 1/4 tsp paprika
• 1/8 tsp dried parsley
• black pepper to taste
• red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions:

1. Peel the onion and chop into segments.  Use your food processor to chop into smaller pieces.
2. Sautée the onion with the olive oil until browned.
3. While the onion is cooking, bowl water and cook the gnocchi according to instructions on package.  Set cooked gnocchi aside.
4. Once you’ve finished cooking the onion, add all ingredients (except gnocchi) into the food processor and blend.
5. Pour the sauce over the gnocchi and voila, dinner is served!

Australian Beach Shack Home Tour

So technically this isn’t exactly a “shack” but it is a gorgeous white beach house that you won’t want to miss seeing!  I love the openness of the space and how light-filled it is with just a few pops of yellow and aqua.  This is a really fun and simple beach home.  I’ve spotted a few pieces that I’d love to have in my own home and even some ways that I can rearrange the items I already have to up my beachy home vibes!  Take the tour:

That fridge is the cutest!!

 

 

 

 

Aqua lights in the kitchen? Yes please!

 

 

 

I love using cutting boards as practical decor

 

This instantly got me wondering if I had any chairs I could spray paint aqua…

Spring Hair Inspiration

This morning I wanted to share some Spring hair inspiration.  The beginning of every season is always a good time to refresh your hairstyle.  For Spring, since it’s a pretty busy season for me, I typically lean towards quick hairstyles that don’t require much time but still look cute.  One of my favorites is the top knot with the added twist of a small braid.  It looks chic and only requires minimal effort!
