M's First Swim Lessons

Hey Finessees!  This summer my husband and I decided to enroll our three year old in preschool swim lessons at the YMCA.  Since it's her first experience in pool we enrolled her in a transition class.  Mom or dad gets in the water with their child.  The child learns to get comfortable in the water and getting their faces wet, how to blow bubbles, and the fundamentals of paddling and kicking.  The goal is to be able to have the child swim unassisted 5ft before moving to the next level.  Here is a pictorial of M's first lesson:

Turquoise Thursday

Hey Finessees!  After a long vacation and mini hiatus, I'M BACK!!!!!!  Here is another feature of the color that I am absolutely obsessed with turquoise.  It's a guest house that I found on House of Turquoise. The functionality and layout of it is on par. The house was designed by Tilman Long Interiors. Excuse me while I swoon.


They used barn doors!

Instagram

Hey Finessess!  There is a plethora of social media outlets out there?  However I think my favorite is Instagram, with Pinterests being a close second.  I am a visual learner, therefore it totally makes sense that I favor the pictoral social media.  Here are a few of my favorites from Instagram:


This chic can style her backside off!  #thatisall


A store in Paris I found years ago.  Style Design Art and Food....#swoon

Because every architecture and interior is as fab as this. Once can get lost on their account for hours!



One of my reality tv show guilty pleasures.  She's a train wreck I cannot turn away from.  I respect her grind and her swimsuit line is on point.  #dontjudgemeforsometimeslikingratchedness
