The Fashion Magpie Kitchen Runner 2

Ho-hum, a helter-skelter of fantasies today, beginning with the elegant, lived-in feel of these runner-lined kitchens above and below:

I am contemplating stealing the look with this, thisthis, or this, all of which are under $100 — I figure a kitchen is not the place to splurge on a rug that will soon be dotted with oil, dirt, spills, and I favor the two that can be tossed in the washing machine!

I’m swooning over the Delft blue-and-white china in the snap above — even though I’ve made a personal commitment to sticking with white plates for the most part (I get so bored of patterns!), I’m dying over the look above, and love this set of four vintage plates (only $25!), this Spode collection, or this picturesque set (or this vintage set!).  And speaking of blue and white, how about this set of chinoiserie bud vases (on sale!)!?  Maybe huddled around this ginger jar (also on sale)?  Would make such a chic tablescape!

For those of us coveting the Chanel vibe without the pricetag, I had to do a quadruple take at these flats (love them in the pink or black and white!), which are currently on sale for under $100 with code FRIENDS40.

I love the casual chic of a striped tee.  I now own several Kule t-shirts in the modern long cut (love — also, select colorways and styles are marked down here!), but there’s always room for more, and this is discounted (more sizes here).  I also love this striped t-dress.

I’ve been teetering on the edge of ordering a label-less straw market tote a la Francaise, and the snap above did me in: I’m ordering this or this.  (Read the reviews!)  Debating about handle length…

The snap above is a reminder of the timeless style of a classic Polo oxford — currently on sale with an extra 25% off!

If I could only legitimize the purchase of an oversized champagne tub like the one above — this or this would do the trick….

Overall, the moodboard above conjures a full of languid summer days in comfortable, chic duds like this striped jumpsuit, this sweet lace dress, and this striped midi.

Unrelated to anything, I’m on the hunt for a cute dog treat jar — maybe this or this (personalized!) or this?

P.S.  Some reflections on loss.
