The Circle – IN IT FOR LOVE

summer staples (the circle link up)

Being that its winter here in Brisbane, its nice to dream about summer time in 6 months time and all the things I love about summer…..which isn’t a lot because my favourite season is winter 🙂

So I’m linking up with Kiki from In Its Time and Cassie from Living on Cloud Nine for June’s The Circle Link Up – Summer Staples.

My favourite things for summer aren’t just “stuff”, they are really the moments we end up spending together with people we think are awesome!. Family picnics, park visits, the occasional beach visit, outdoor bbqs and the lovely bright mornings and late lit nights!

Summer Staples - In It For Love

1. Seafolly bag – I bought this beauty over Christmas and still haven’t had a chance to use it. This summer will definitely have to for a beach visit and this little lovely!

2. Birkenstock Sandals – pretty much one of my favourite shoes to wear. These will definitely be out come summertime! I’ve being eyeing off this new style to add to the collection!

3. Kuvings Juicer – with all the juicing we do, I can imagine us in summer enjoying some light and berry fresh juices….love to upgrade to this beauty!!!

4. Tortoise Shell Sunglasses – I always want to change but I never do. Love a tortoise shell pair of glasses and love these!!

5. Floral bikini – Every year I say we will go to the beach more…surely this will help to make me go to the beach more 🙂

6. Maxi Dress – my perfect idea for summer dressing, no fuss outfits!

7. Earrings – I’m not a big jewelry person, but I’ll always have earrings on! Got my eye on these!

8. Sneakers – As well as a comfy pair of sandals, I really love these shoes. Need a new pair as my blue ones are wearing out fast! Really liking this colour though!

9. Nail Polish – I love bright coloured nails for summer but I also have an obsession with natural colours and love this peach colour!

And thats about it for me. Can I just say how absolutely fun it was making a collage like that! Loved it!

The Circle – home essentials

I love this little Link Up by Kiki at In Its Time and her co-host this month Victoria from Through *For* By. I especially love that every month its something different – such a clever idea from a clever lady!

This months is 5-10 essentials and it really got me thinking….but then it stopped me thinking because I was then over thinking….sigh! But I figured, hey – what am I around every day that are things I couldn’t live without….thus my The Circle link up for November…

home essentials
> earrings…not a day goes by that I don’t wear earrings. they sometimes get strewn over the house, but essential!
> ghd…hair straightener is a must for me and my thick unruly locks!
> laptop….love my little lappy. we have such productive (and unproductive) times together.
> husband….because everyone needs a good husband in the home. an essential daily staple 😉
> cook books…we have a lot of cookbooks. hubby has a problem in buying them! But they are so so handy!
> millie cat…because she is adorable and needs to be fed daily. if not, you will know about it and possibly trip over her!
> muesli…hmmm the best thing and comes so in handy when you just need a quick brekky! Essential to have a stock!
> the food stash…the husbands idea & comes in handy on fast days & guest coffee/tea stop overs
> my third hand/iphone….as much as I always try to not use little ifey, he always finds his way into my hands..ooo pretty, okay now I’m distracted!!

Love your twist on this prompt! All essentials indeed. And the “third hand” cracks me up – this happens to me all the time.

I LOVE what you said about your laptop. I have the same love/hate relationship with mine! Love it for blogging and all that, hate it when it keeps me distracted from getting things done. But I think the love is greater! 🙂

And I also love your food stash idea! Such a clever idea that I might have to adopt.

Thanks for linking up! I loved your list!

haha yes it is definitely a love/hate relationship….its so pretty too 🙂
yes it is a good idea and bad again – but its amazing how you actually forget about it. but when people come over and you have them sitting there to go with a nice hot cuppa – its pretty cute so i’ll give him that 😉

thanks for hosting the link up – you guys always do such a good job 🙂
