Homebar Inspiration

Inspo Board

1234

I am in this particular phase of summer where everyone around me is  wrapping up summertime and planning for their projects next year. Although we are still in vacation, I can feel things slowing down a little bit and moving towards what I like to call “The September Vibe”.

I have been catching up with a bunch of friends lately, telling eachother our vacation and it has been great. And for those little gathering parties, I have to say, a good homebar is a must!

I decided to create this inspiration board to share how I would personally style mine. As you may have seen in other posts, I love a good minimalist decoration. So really, sharing my must haves in a inspo board was kind of hard, but I stumbled upon all these pictures which really are a good reflection of what you would be able see on top of my homebar.

Here are my personal must haves:

Nice Furniture: I found this bar stool on Chairish.com, a website that is specialized in vintage furniture. They have gorgeous pieces that I highly invite you to check out.

Fresh Plants: Having some fresh plants, flowers OR – a single jumbo leaf in a vase. I saw that on a recent post from apairandasparediy.com and I absolutely loved it. It is just so simple, chic and it really is not that hard to find.

Drinks and Snacks: If I was to entertain a small group or just a friend or two, I would definitely chill around the bar with a bottle of wine, cheese, some nuts and fresh fruit. Because I mean you know.. you have to treat yourself 😉

Cosy Lighting: Another must-have for me are those long hanging lights. I think they dress up the room so nicely, and if you want a more cosy room, turning all the bigger lights off and leaving these on, gives such a nice atmosphere.

How would you personally style your home bar?

Health – Soups!

Hey guys!

I hope you are all doing very fine.

I have been looking at some delicious looking recipes and ideas of snacks. The ones that made me want to try them the most were salads! However because it is still kind of cold, I decided to start sharing with you some soups (creamy ones are my fave)!

Yummy kind of Healthy Snacks

Hello!

Well.. I cannot lie to you. These are not going to be the most healthy snacks ever, but the main idea is that they are something else than chips/candies/cookies (well and they are not BAD for you) .

Before getting more hungry let me show these little treasures!

This one is the most healthy snack that I am going to share today. I looove cucumbers! Actually for people who like cucumbers this is not an unusual snack so I should have no reason to be sharing this like crazy. But the fact is that when I saw this pic I realized that it had been a while since the last time I ate some! And OMG… with salt and pepper.. maybe a touch of squeezed lemon.. HUMM!
So if you want to go healthy, there you go!

Now a bit less healthy but definitley the coolest to eat in front of your TV 😉 – ROASTED ALMONDS! HOW YUMMY IS THAT?
I absolutely love almonds, pecan, nuts, pistachios. I cannot say anything more because I am starting to get very very hungry.
I never tries almonds roasted with rosemary but I am sure they are delicious! Definitely need to make some (here).

Now moving to SWEET POTATOE! I am cra-zy about sweet potatoes. I think it is just so good and perfect for the fall/winter time. I usually eat them in a very simple way with with meat meals. But what if, I spiced them a bit following these steps?

Keeping the sweet potatoe theme, I also found this very cool way of eating them! Check it out here.

& Now I think I need to go cook dinner.

XOXO,

Musings 7

Today’s Song!

Hey guys! I hope you are having an amazing week end and that you are excited for the 7th post of My Musings! As always, 1 fashion, 1 food, 1 fun (OMG – I think today’s fun pic is soooo cute)

 Okay, I know bubble necklaces have been in since last summer, I think? Anyways, I don’t own one myself but I absolutely love it. And while trying to find a cool pic to show you my newfavorite accessory, look what I found…

Image

AAAH, new versions of bubble necklaces! I did not know these exist! How cute they are with those tiny touch of colors to add to any outfit! My favorite one may be the turquoise! What’s yours? 🙂

Image

 Next! I have been extremely obsessed with grape! It is one of my favorite fruits ever! I love cutting them in half (eventually taking of the seeds out) and eating them as a snack. But some weeks ago, I found this on Pinterest and I went like OMG, this must be so good with creamed cheese on some crackers. Yummy… Can almost get that salty/sweet flavor right now!

CANNOT COMMENT  THIS BECAUSE I AM MELTING
