OOTD ~ Washday observations...

It's wash day again here in our Humble Bungalow.
Mondays more frequently are washing, ironing and domestics days...


OOTD
Club Monaco jeans
Monoprix grey linen Tee
silver necklace from Paris


This inexpensive Parisian necklace gets lots of compliments.

I love white and silver together...
so icy and cool.


Our white orchid is in bloom again..this must be the 4th year that it has re-bloomed.
Orchids, the window sill variety are a great bargain...just a wee bit more than a bouquet and they continue to perform for years. 
I water mine every Monday.


Our grey and black back door rug... from Target.


The Christmas cactus is looking healthy.
It usually blooms twice a year and not always at Christmas!


Mr. HB and I both spent a lazy day on the boat this weekend.
We read our books and the cats snoozed...


I bought a new mat for the galley.


and some new melamine plates designed by Nicole Miller.
Home Sense and Winners are the source of the nautical inspired accents pieces for our boat.

Chester


The view from here...


There were many opportunities to reflect...
remember 
and honour the memory of our Fathers
both gone but not forgotten...


I'll be starting this book soon...



I want to learn how to make a French omellete...
I need to find a non stick pan first.

The time has come to say adieu

There are linens to launder and cottons to iron...

OOTD ~ Sailor Style

I cobbled together a crazy sailor style outfit this morning...
it's a busy day of domestics here in The Humble Bungalow.

I've been doing laundry since about 8:30 am.
Eradicating dirt should appear on the top of my CV!


It's a Blue OOTD all the way down to the toes.
The Tommy Hilfiger watch is waterproof so good for actioning domestics or wearing on the boat.


This might be what Lisa calls "Tomboy Style."
Do you read Lisa's blog?
I do and did you know that I started blogging because of her?
She was super helpful and supportive and she really knows her way around the technical area of computing.
She knows a lot about the WASP way of life which I personally find fascinating...

These comfy GAP capri length sailor pants are so soft.
They must be as old as the hills...
or they've been laundered dozens if not hundreds of times...
well I am given to exaggerate a bit!

The striped top is the one I purchased at COS in The Marais district in Paris this May...
Paris, France I was there just over a month ago.

Here are some images captured from my trip...all themed Blues.











It's Father's Day on Sunday and I'll be remembering my Dad,
honouring my husband, the Father of my children 
and son who is the father of two and soon to be 3.

Hope that you have a lovely weekend.
