Welcome to this week’s Wednesday Watch List, where I share the random things that captured my attention and stole my heart over the past week!

Wednesday Watch List 051116

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5

1 – I posted this living room image on Instagram over the weekend and haven’t stopped thinking about it since.  You can see the rest of the space here. I was also able to find some similar looking blue glass vases.

2 – I found this cute white tasseled top and had to have it. Isn’t it perfect for summer? I’m also loving this scalloped bathing suit that looks so much like the really pricey designer alternative!

3 – I ordered two of these blue and white striped throws last week and I think they’ll be perfect to toss over the backs of our dark leather living room chairs. The price was unreal, so when I was buying my palm tree drink floats, I knew the throws had to go in my cart as well. I also couldn’t resist these pineapple ice cube molds, this oblong woven tray, or these popsicle molds – so perfect for summer!

4 – Confession time: I am completely hosed now that summer is almost here. I have yet to lose any of the weight I’ve gained and now I’m in a bit of a panic mode as the pool nears completion. I came across this post by Gray Malin (one of my all-time favorite photographers – see here, here and here) about a jump-start eating plan to lose weight. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve tried to steer clear of fad diets and ‘instant’ results-type of eating plans, and prefer to try and alter the way we eat in general. But, I need some quick help so I thought I’d give it a try. We’ll also be implementing our favorite workout for losing weight, once I’m back from Houston later this week.

5 – Pretty Shibori pillow covers in three colors at an affordable price.

    Sara, have you tried 21 Day Fix or 21 Day Fix Extreme in regards to losing the weight by summer? Because it’s only 3 weeks I’m pretty sure you’ll be able to accomplish your goal in time for when your pool is done. The eating plan is super easy and the result is amazing for just 30 minutes of workout. It’s my Go To fitness and eating plan if I’m trying to lose weight. The best part is it’s not a Fad Diet or a No Pain No Gain workout. Best of luck!
