Tina; Oh My this is spot on. It is over 100 here in Austin today and I was just thinking I needed to go find a nice shady spot for late afternoon aperitif. Hope you're doing well.

I'm definitely ready for my cocktail...or at least a glass of chardonnay. Any one of these candle lit spots would be perfect...even the city one is beyond fabulous! Cheers!
ReplyDeleteI'll take any patio on the beach. Anywhere. Just on the beach.
ReplyDeleteThe images are all so beautiful, but as I was scrolling down, the words you started you post with today kept going through my head. All of those families who lost their homes, it makes me feel blessed and appreciative of our small patio.
ReplyDeleteElsa Soyers and Catlin Creer are two of my absolute favorites, they both invoke immediate thoughts of a stress-free environment, a blissful place to be in the flesh and in the spirit. More than anything, this made me realize how much we need to move forward with a water feature of some kind for the yard!
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful post, anything near the water is something I am going to fall in love with!

Sounds like the perfect evening to me, and yes, flat shoes are a must for cocktails and lawn traipsing, hehe!
ReplyDeleteOooh... so many beautiful images! I love those stools with the nailhead trim in the Elsa Soyers photo.
ReplyDeleteOh me oh my. As I started viewing this post I kept mental note of my favourite images...after about the 6th image I realized that I really like ALL of them! They are all so gorgeous, dreamy material for my imagination :) Good thing I didn't read this one during the work day haha
ReplyDeleteMy prayers are with these people, too. My heart is breaking for so many people who are suffering from all of these events..floods, earthquakes, tornados....I just hope we don't get a hurricane this summer. God bless each and every one of them.
ReplyDeleteI love all of the terraces and plan on doing something with mine.. thanks for the inspiration!
My thoughts and prayers are with them too.
ReplyDeleteThose spaces are truly amazing! I'm ready for cocktails! Thank you for all of your sweet comments!
...I will be there!!

ReplyDeleteTina I want to crash your cocktail party! Wow you always find the most magical settings... What can I say, you have the best taste ever!
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you for the lovely message you left me, and again I am so happy you been to Rio, so you know how beautiful it is... I actually left Rio 7 years ago and have been living in US for all this time (and only coming to Rio for short trips to visit family like 3 times a year). Then a few months ago I quit my job and decided to spend 5 months in Rio with my family... and now that my long vacation is ending I am already so sad... It will be really hard to leave this time, but like you said LA is special too, and that is where my boyfriend is! So wish me luck my friend and if you ever in LA let me know!
Hugs & kisses from Rio!
