Style Scouting: Vol. 234

Thanks for stopping by for this week’s Style Scouting. My Sunday post where I share the random stuff that captured my attention or inspired me that I found online.

As the saying goes… Spring has sprung.

Colors are popping up everywhere I look. It is so nice to see after the drab colors of the winter months.

It has also been very windy which is making the pollen blow into every nook and cranny both outside and inside! It can get annoying, but is something we have to put up with for a couple of weeks every year when spring arrives since we have lots of trees around.

Ed was out doing yard work yesterday and came in with yellow all over him. Achooo! Hope you are enjoying spring weather where you live.

    Loved so many of these, D!!! I especially loved that 200 year old home, and I am STILL smiling over the 80s stuff. Funny about PB offering all the girlie girl pinks…….I think the Barbie movie success is hitting PB now I guess. It’s pretty. Thanks for the great scouting!!

  2. Wonderful ideas you found/shared as usual. SOOO excited for the potsticker salad ( will likely use less oil and add some aquafaba) but what a fun way to add up some extra veggies and make potstickers an entree salad using cabbage and in anticipation of spring . Speaking of spring, your nods to the garden were inspiring also.
