Dream Pool For Swimming in the Summer

April 2, 2011
  • Share
Backyard with a large pool, grassy lawn, lounge chairs, and a wall made of plants

I want to be here.  I do. This is my dream pool. Wouldn’t this be a great place to spend a weekend day? Pool for swimming and gazing, green lawn for walking barefoot, hedges for privacy and a lush backdrop, umbrellas for shade and lounger chairs for lounging. Oh, I would need butler service too to make it complete… 🙂

Today is my beauty day…facial, hair, nails and anything else I might do to pretty up a bit. One must take time to maintain! Right?

Where is your ideal weekend spot? What are your weekend plans? Any decorating in the mix?

Happy Saturday!

    my ideal weekend spot is anywhere with friends and family! But ideally, in a warm place that look a lot like your picture! I live in NYC though, so it takes a little escaping. your blog is so inspirational! New Follower!

    best, tamra

    Very lush and serene!
    I could spend a whole weekend lounging there… who cares about hair and nails if you can hang here… 🙂

    So glad you found and shared this! That’s the Hampton’s garden of designer Laura Day (of Laura Day Living), and one of our favorite photographers, Nancy Nolan, took the pic. Beautiful house too.

    I need to be lying beside this pool! Really and truly I do. Since that’s not happening in my world any time soon, I think I’m going to go take a nap and dream about lying beside this pool.

    Stylishly yours,
    Kalyn

    Reminds me a lot of the Viceroy Santa Monica. One of the best Sunday Brunches in LA…& the best when your a guest and can relax by the pool after wards with the LA Times.

    Less is more. I love simple, rectangular pools surrounded by glass. This is the pool I would build at my own home.

You are not going to feel motivated every day. AndYou are not going to feel motivated every day. And you don’t have to.
Some days you’ll feel inspired and everything seems to click. Other days, you’ll question what you’re doing and wonder if any of it is actually working.
The important thing is not to mistake a slow day for a step backward.
You can keep going even when the motivation isn’t there. Some days, showing up is the progress.
Save this for the days when you need the reminder. 🤍

The best parts of Paris might not be on your itineThe best parts of Paris might not be on your itinerary. 🇫🇷
Some of my favorite travel moments are the ones you don’t plan: the pretty street you turn onto, the café you notice while walking by, the building you stop to look at for no particular reason.
So if you’re planning a Paris trip, don’t fill every hour. Leave room to wander.

Sometimes the problem isn’t the work. It’s where ySometimes the problem isn’t the work. It’s where you’re doing it.
So today, I took my work somewhere else. ☕️💻
A little change of scenery, a different view, a few hours away from my usual desk and somehow the workday felt a little lighter.
I’ve found that working somewhere else can be a nice reset when I’m feeling stuck, uninspired, or just too used to the same routine. It’s not necessarily about being more productive; sometimes it’s just about making the day feel different.
A little workday change of scenery with me. 🤍
Would you take your work somewhere else for the day?

A great parquet floor doesn’t just ground a room. A great parquet floor doesn’t just ground a room. It tells you everything about the history of the space. The patina, the pattern, the way light moves across it. These are the rooms that prove good bones never go out of style.
What’s your favorite parquet pattern?
