We headed northbound to Santa Barbara late Friday afternoon and weekends up there just hit different. It always feels a bit like a reset—slower mornings, nowhere to be, and plenty of space to just be.
We took a long walk along the beach, the kind that starts with “let’s just go for a few minutes” and somehow turns into let’s also walk to grab a coffee. Barefoot, salty air, easy conversation… my favorite kind of time.
In between all of that, we squeezed in a few last-minute touches at The Bungalow, getting it ready for vacation rentals (it’ll be listed this week!)— assembling outdoor furniture and adding some small touches here and there…
As the day wound down, we ended up at our go-to spot for sunset cocktails (because of course). The light was unreal, the mood was relaxed, and it felt like one of those moments you don’t want to rush through.
Nothing big, nothing busy—just a really good Santa Barbara weekend, captured in a few snaps.
Hope everyone has a great week ahead 🤍

I wore these silk and lace shorts for a photo shoot with Beek last week and they’re perfect for spring and summer….
Love these ivory loafers from Beek for spring… and they look like they would be so comfortable. (ITSYBITSYINDULGENCES10 for 10% off)
My favorite kitten heel sandals have been restocked… they’re under $50 and so comfortable. I bought them 2 summers ago and they’re perfect for warmer temps.
This cashmere cardigan (I own it in grey) is the perfect weight for the spring season ahead… while still being a great winter layer.
I’m testing out Vivrelle, where you can borrow designer handbags… ordered The Row shoulder bag and can’t wait to test it out. If you’ve been curious, ITSYBITSY will give you your first month free.
