Let us make the flowers our bed, and the
Sky our blanket, and rest our heads together
Upon pillows of soft hay.
Sky our blanket, and rest our heads together
Upon pillows of soft hay.
Let us relax after the day's toil, and listen
To the provoking murmur of the brook.
To the provoking murmur of the brook.

My perfect serene moment.... a white crochet hammock between two weeping willow trees next to a lake, a slight cool breeze that lightly swing a dainty windchime for some sound along with the leaves blowing softly through the air, and me wearing the “met you by chance striped tank” and “flowers of the field floral skirt” with the “inner beauty indie flower hairclip” in my hair, while napping with my two beautiful baby boys; my oldest tucked under my arm and my little one sound asleep on my chest....what a dream come true!

A picnik in the park on a sunny summer day with my darling Husband and my beautiful baby girl crawling and giggling as she tries to chase our little 10 lb. black shi-poo, Drake. I would wear the "symphony of silver bells chiffon top" with a cute pair of jean shorts, navy polka-dot cloche hat, and nude wedges.

My perfect serene moment? Laying on the dock by the lake with a blanket, a good book, a camera, and music.
I would style the 'Whisper Something Sweet Lace Cardi' with a pair of denim shorts & oxford shoes for a walk on the pier.
Laying on the green grass with my sweetheart with the sun shining on my face. I would wear the "be my sweet pea ruffle top" with the "sherlock holmes houndstooth skirt" :)
It would be going to the local old-fashioned deli with my best friend for ice cream. I would wear the “sweet ocean air appliqué chiffon top,” because it is so beautifully flowy. I would pair it with my favorite khaki shorts and leather strappy sandals. I would style it with a cream-colored headband through my curled hair and a chunky wooden bangle on my arm. It would be a deliciously serene moment.
My perfect Sunlit Serenity finds me outside a café in Downtown Denver. I’m wearing the “breakfast in bed” floral dress and the “plethora of peaches” that blush just as rosy as the berries and fruit in the shops. I might need to slip out of the “lacey lullaby” lace jacket; it has been one of the million sunny, gorgeous days in Colorado. But I leave the “sunshine dance” sunglasses on, of course.
It would begin in my favorite city, Charleston,sc. I would be wearing my adorable striped swimsuit with the red bows and floppy tan hat!
Laying on the beach with my two adorable baby boys and my tall, dark and handsome husband!!
My perfect moment of serenity is in a hammock stretched out in the sultry shade of the porch, lying next to old childhood friends with mint juleps in hand, reminiscing, or just swinging in soft silence. I would wear the streams of sweet dreams crochet tunic and the flowers for florence botanical shorts, my Chelsea Crew "Frieda" sandals kicked off on the stairs.
My perfectly serene moment involves a hot bubble bath, a good book (the history of love by nicole krauss), and some riesling.
I'd style the lovely "watching the sun rise floral applique top" tucked into a high waisted midi skirt with pleats, a flower crown, and cut out wedges.

My perfect serene day would be laying with my significant other in a hammock near the river. Listening to Billy Holiday and the sounds of nature. Feeling the sun shining on my face. A slight breeze that forces me to close my eyes and breath deep and get lost in the moment. No worries, no cares. Just nature and two lovers.
I would wear the "from the clouds ruffled dress". Its light and beautiful and pure looking. I'd wear the paprika lexington indie necklace for a bit of vintage. I absolutely adore the boggle floral lace up flats. These would be perfectly vintage with my white ruffled dress.
My serenity moment would be kissing my husband outside during a sunshower so I could feel the sun and the rain on my face. I'd be wearing the dizzy love applique top and the running on luck pleated shorts in white, with the pristine adelaide pendant necklace and the strolling through the park woven wedges.
In the quiet of the family reunion’s Canadian cottage, with my cousin playing the piano in the parlor, we relax on the porch. Grandma’s rocking gently to the music, her eyes half closed. Her weathered hands clasp a delicate teacup. My sister swings slowly; cousin Sean is drawing in his sketchbook. I’m sitting with my favorite book forgotten in my lap. I cannot bring myself to read a fairytale when I’m already in one.
I would wear the "sweet ocean air applique chiffon top" with the "pristine adelaide pendant necklace," jeans and no shoes.
hollikids@yahoo.com
rain. wool blanket. loafers. tea: wearing the follow me home lace cardigan.
Perfectly Serene...Watching a fire die down amongst friends.
My perfectly serene moment would be in the summer time walking through a meadow in the summer time, or walking down a lovely dirt road with no sounds except those of mother nature <3. I would top it off by wearing the "flowers of the field floral skirt" and the "streams of sweet dreams tunic"...
lmtrask@live.com
Laying with my husband on a homemade quilt in the backyard at night, looking at the stars and hearing the hum of cicadas over Neil Young's Harvest Moon playing in the background. Id be wearing the 'follow me home lace cardigan' with the 'fairytale floral anklets' to keep my toes warm :)
Walking the shoreline of a beach at dusk, the sun stretching its red-orange-yellow rays across the sky, emilia's charm leather cutout heels (in beige) in one hand, the other entwined with the fingers of the significant other.
Dream Outfit for the Day:
Watching the Sun Rise Floral Top (for its delicate feminine-ness) paired with Running on Luck Pleated Shorts (perfect for playing some beach tag), accentuated with the Garden Treasure necklace (completes the outfit). :)
My perfect serene moment would be at Ripponlea Estate, a beautiful old house and sorrounding gardens just outside Melbourne. I would wander through the ferns and roses wearing the "watching the sun rise floral applique top" paired with a flowy skirt and sandals, perfect garden adventure wear.
My perfectly serene moment would be walking around the streets of Key West with my boyfriend recreating our first trip together... I'd wear the "sweet ocean air applique chiffon top" with a khaki or white flowy skirt and the "ruthenia meadows assymetrical necklace" with its matching earrings to add some sparkle. Just perfect.

My most perfect serene moment includes a picnic, Central Park, and my boyfriend. We try to have a picnic there at least 4-5 times every summer and I'm always the most at ease when we're laying down on a blanket looking up at the beauty that is Central Park. The follow me home lace cardigan would be perfect for a day that includes relaxing, food, and love. :)
A day filled with family and friends of course; one in which day turns to night without anyone noticing. Lemonade, laughter and smiles that can't be removed even if you try.
I'd be comfy in the serendipity floral maxi and sunshine straw hat. And, as a redhead, I'd be wearing my number one accessory: sunscreen :)
My serene moment is sitting back home in Saskatchewan during the warm dry summer , sitting in one of my granpa's fields with my sketchbook in hand my jack russel oreo following me and a simple blanket to sit on while i sketch ... i see myself wearing the follow-me-home-lace-cardigan with denim shorts , a pendant , and a pair of vintage cowboy boots .
My most perfect serene moment would be a picnic on the beach with the fiance - in the Sweet Summer Day ruffle detail dress with gold sandals, and a gold California bracelet. :)
A Touch of Vintage gray & ano liosia earrings with sandals and a cardigan... a visit to a favorite museum in San Francisco then lunch at my favorite Vietnamese restaurant with my husband our 2 sweet boys... Maybe more fog than sunshine in SF in the summer, and maybe not so serene with the children in tow, but lots of fun and my perfect day, none the less!
my perfect serene moment is sitting by a a windy prairie in the facade of my old wooden house, watching the grass softly dancing with the wind while having a glass of tea.
I really want to go back home badly.
I would style it with lovely "tell me darling racerback crochet dress" and let the wind blow myself up
---
My perfect serene moment would be in a forest clearing with the bright sun all around me. I would have a favourite book and my favourite person, my hubby, with me.
Of course the wonderful "live in sunshine straw hat" would keep my serene moment from being ruined with a burnt nose :)
A perfect serene moment is sitting curled up next to my boyfriend, with his arms around me, on the beach, watching the waves. I adore the tell me darling racerback crochet dress and would style it with some high heels, a long necklace and a light cardigan.
Sitting underneath an apple tree in an orchard just before sunset, with the late afternoon sunlight streaming through the trees ... a book in hand, a carton of chocolate milk in the other, and a plate of brownies by my side -- pure bliss!
I'd be wearing the "streams of sweet dreams crochet tunic" with the "dear ocean town trousers".
I would pair the the world is brighter with you coral dress with a pair of brown espadrille sandals and a straw hat while I sit on a cliff along the Pacific coast and watch the waves crash.
My serene moment is exactly as is pictured on page 23. Late afternoon on the dock, the sun angled in brilliant yellows, the wild grass catching fire in its streaming honey, and my "live in sunshine straw hat" shades me to see it all.
My serene moment - in the middle of the mountains at a turquoise lake with my sister doing yoga on the beach (i'm so not graceful, lol) while my 1 1/2 year old niece discovers the joy of sand digging for the first time - so cute!
The roxanne swimsuit & crochet vest would be so lovely for that. :)
my serene moment would be a picnik on a field full of red poppys in the evening. he would kiss me, say cute things and ask me to marry him...
in my dream of the serene moment i wear the "the world is brighter with you coral dress", because even the name of the dress fits perfect! or the "tell me darling racerback crochet dress" because it's so lovely! and the lovely "euphrosyne-of-kiev-bracelet"! ♥
I really hope i'll win!

I am at a quiet beach, enjoying mild temperatures, lounging on a large comfy papasan, sipping on some refreshing sangria, reading a Jane Austen book, and listening to the gentle waves as they roll toward the pristine sand. Of course, I'll be styling in a simple, romantic and comfortable ensemble of "watching the sun rise floral applique top" and "dear ocean town trousers." Oh, and bare feet. :)
oh my serene moment would be a picnic in the garden with my love, eating strawberrys and cupcake, and kissing all the day!
tell me darling racerback crochet dress - is my dream! (size M) with lacey touch scalloped bralette in black
Serenity is sometimes a slice of cool honeydew melon amidst the humidity of a summer midnight spent lounging with friends. Other times, the slow drone of an advertising plane over a small, solitary figure tucked into a beach chair some warm morning. The morning daydreaming floral top works as a beach coverup with a big pale sunhat and sandals while doubling as a casual summer top with faded jean cutoffs, brown oxfords and a nude headscarf.
My perfect serene moment is lying on my back in the gras listening to the wind rushing through the trees and listening to the birds sing. It would be more perfect if I was wearing the oceanside stripes haltertop, that fitts the moment perfectly.
Warm summer evening with a cool breeze on the beach where I spent my childhood summers. The sun just going down fills the sky with colors and there are little boats bobbing on the water and a big portion of hot fish and chips to share with everyone. Followed by a sneak up to the big field of horses.
Wearing
draped and dazzle applique top'
'whisper something sweet lace cardi'
'strolling through the park woven wedges'
nice pair of shorts
colorful summery jewelry
serenity=water. Whether it be being at our old apartment at the beach, being in Florence by the Arno with my beau, or stuffing my face at a quite couples only picnic by the lake, as long as there's water and by husband, I'm serene. And to make it all the more gorgeous: the "morning daydreaming floral top"or the "sweet ocean air applique chiffon top" please :)
I imagine me in the Sunlit Serenity 20 outfit walking between dunes along the beach of the North Sea because I adore Holland seaside and dunes :-)feeling harmony and sweet serenity with nature and myself!
Thank you for the chance!

Laying in a hammock in my garden with a glass of mojito, my man near me and listening to Miles Davis. I would love to wear Oceanside stripes halter top with the Running on luck pleated shorts and the gorgeous red bracelet.
my fave lookbook yet! swoon! perfectly serene moment for me:
wading into the ocean on a beautiful sunny day with a gentle breeze...not a care in the world to have to rush off too. xoxo
Serene moment... Soaking in the sun and breathing in the ocean air while walking on the beach with my husband and kids, collecting shells and playing in the surf. I'd be wearing the Roxane striped two piece swimsuit.
Since you're based in SoCal, you probably know of it - I would go for a sunlit brunch at Aroma in Studio City. I love how part of the cafe is in a bookstore, and then it spills out into a lovely patio that gets the perfect amount of sun each day. I'll be there, sipping an iced latte, wearing the Be My Sweet Pea ruffle top, with the navy blue shorts and a blue flower in my hair.

Growing up in the country, the most serene moment I have ever found was in walking down the country lane, with a soft breeze and the sun on my shoulders. All you could hear was the wind.
With my Sweet ocean air chiffon Top and touch of vintage lace skirt i would sit on the edge of the ocean with my husband and his guitar. Together we would watch the sun descend while we played music. He would accompany my vocals and we would make beautiful music together along with the sounds of the wind, water, and birds.
reading a book outside on a 75-degree day, and wearing the oceanside stripes halter, flowers of the field floral skirt, and strolling through the park wedges.
My perfectly serene day would be spent lounging at the tiny beach at a quiet local park in our town, reading a good book, and just listening to the sound of the waves and the breeze rustling the trees. I would wear the a touch of vintage lace skirt in gray with a gray rosette tank I have and my favorite pair of gray flip-flops. Feminine and simple.

My perfectly serene moment will be next year laying by a beach or pool in the Keys with a cocktail next to my husband! i will be wearing the live in sunshine straw hat with my favorite bikini!
Lying under an umbrella on a quiet beach in Delaware, holding hands with the love of my life, just being together, listening to the waves...and of course I'd be wearing that darling Roxanne two-piece swimsuit! And red lip gloss. :)
Sailing on the bay, good food, good wine, good company, and my camera. I like the draped and dazzle applique top with the running on luck navy shorts, topped with the live in sunshine straw hat to block the sun and the london fields chain bracelet. :)
on the family's sailboat off the coast of Virginia 3 weeks from now, sailing in my oceanside tank, white shorts and wide-brimmed straw hat. A delicious picnic dinner of salami sandwiches, fresh fruit salad and fizzy drinks sparkling in glass bottles. Then my daughter is below deck being rocked to sleep by the gentle waves and the bf and I are enjoying a bottle of wine and watching the sunset.
Listening to the rain while curled beneath a weathered quilt, reading a novel and sipping a Martinelli's.
The Streams of Sweet Dreams Crochet Tunic in Sunlit Serentity 9 group is so delicately feminine and a delightful summer piece.
My perfect serene moment...
Strolling the brick streets of downtown Annapolis and browsing its quaint shops. Afternoon drinks would be along the water, watching the boats float in and out while enjoying the bay breeze. All would be done while wearing the Breakfast in Bed floral dress with the Whisper Something Sweet lace cardi to ward off the breeze.
My serene moment would be sitting in the patio of the Glen Oaks in Big Sur playing Scrabble with my husband in front of the fireplace. I would wear the swept me off my feet chambray dress with no shoes, a glass of wine, and a big smile.
My perfect serene moment would be shared with my sister. She moved to Austin 2 years ago, while I stayed in Kentucky. She is flying in for a friend's wedding in July, and I can see myself enjoying the wedding and taking in the beautiful scenery with her, all while wearing the Flowers of the Field skirt and Rolling in the Evening Breeze top. Wearing that outfit would make a picture perfect moment with my best friend that much sweeter.
The look on pages 60-61 is my absolute favorite!
My serene moment is laying on a hammock by the beach somewhere tropical with my wonderful boyfriend.
My perfect serene moment is sitting on the grass, reading a book in the late afternoon. There would be light breezes to help cool me down. I would be wearing running on luck pleated navy shorts, resting in the hammock sandals, and a wistful crochet vest on top of a walk on the beach ruffle trim top.
Watching the summer fireworks on the grass at night with good food and lazily sipping some nice chilled wine ^^ And most importantly, it's the people you're with that make it an even better moment.
I would don the "swept me off my feet chambray dress" with some flat sandals - perfect summer feel :D
My serene moment would be on the deck at a cabin in Lake Tahoe in summertime, with a glass of red wine and my husband, watching our son play. I'd be wearing the sweet as a rose floral shorts, with the castaway salmon striped sweater
and especially for you gray espadrille wedges.
My serene moment is when I would bring a nice Conan Doyle read by the Toronto Islands among the small beaches, the pier and the lighthouse. I would be wearing "Be my sweet pea" ruffle top with "Sherlock Holmes houndstooth" skirt in reflection of the book I'm reading!
My serene moment would be wearing the Aspiring Aurora one-piece bathing suit and the day in the sunshine hat on Maui. I would stroll to a beachsite massage hut and get a relaxing massage to the sound of REAL ocean waves and birdsongs. THEN I'd grab a frozen drink and head to a lounge chair in the sand. Lying there, the sun would soak into every pore until I felt like I had never been so relaxed in my life. Before long, my eyes would open to a beautiful tropical sunset. Serene indeed!
My perfect serene moment is being on my honeymoon this July after I marry my wonderful fiance. I'd be wearing the "Along the Shoreline" cardigan over my swimsuit after we had a picnic dinner on the beach. We'd snuggle closer, watching the sunset and enjoying the beautiful start of our life together.
My favorite serene spot is on Daniel's Island. Right on the shore past the dunes with the light house in sight. Sitting in a beach chair sketching the scenery in my notebook, listening to the music of the waves crashing.
I would wear: darling daydreamer floral sheer tank, running on luck pleated shorts in white, thessaly meadows indie necklace, chelsea crew frieda sandals, with the twirl me around headband in natural.
:)
My serene day would be taking a walk to the prairie near my apartment to explore the curving paths and hidden stream, take pictures of the wild life, and let the breeze blow my hair.
I would wear the "Morning Daydreaming" top, with denim shorts, leather sandals, and lacy scarf in my hair.
oh i like!
Would love to wear the outfit on page 19 (with the rosebuds in bloom floral tank) while sipping café au lait and eating beignets at the Cafe du Monde in New Orleans' French Quarter.
Gathering dandelion puff bouquets with my first beau, kiss, and love in the mountains of Vermont. A dandelion puff battle would shortly ensue...we would leave the field laughing and our hair coated with seeds.
I would like to be wearing "A touch of vintage lace skirt" with a slouchy sleeveless tank, a necklace gifted to me by my boyfriend, and a pair of Oxfords.
C:
The sun would open her face and peek out from over the mountain tops. I would slip on my skirt and eyelet top(Sunlit Serenity 14), and go on a serene walk through the outdoors with the warm sun on my skin, and a smile in my heart, feeling as if the whole world is on my side. I would feel butterflies landing on my outstretched fingers, and see clouds moving through the soft sky like fluffy sheep on a field of blue.
I would take my boy out for gelato wearing a floral romper, strappy wedges and the nimbus cloud bow purse in pink.
My perfect serene moment is a memory. It was one of those magical nights in my country when the sun never sets. My friends and I climbed up on the top of the tower silo on our farm. We stayed up all night drinking champagne and trusting each other with secrets, while the world went quiet, but never dark.
“Flowers for Florence” botanical shorts, paired with a simple blouse and a cute headband, perfect!
a serene moment can be everything, it peeks around sometimes. I love when it happens but at the same time, you can't force it and that's what I love about it!
Oh and in a perfect moment I would wear the chambray dress!
My perfect serene moment would be reading a good book on my favorite comfy couch in the living room. I would wear the oceanside stripes halter top with a simple pair of shorts and sandals.
I would be perfectly serene in a silent moment by the beach. I'd be standing with my hands in those of someone special, and the sight of the sunset would take all of our words away.
One of my favorite pieces from the collection is the flowers from florence botanical garden shorts. I'd style them with a sheer button-up top, tall, strappy wedges and a floral bangle.
For my perfect sunlight serenity day, I would like to have my husband with me, back from Afghanistan. I dream about a sunny day, on the Abrahams hills in Quebec City, my hometown. I would lay on his laps, closing my eyes and letting him play in my hair. I imagine wearing the flowers for florence botanical shorts and the watching the sun rise floral applique top so I could go back home on my old bicycle. But I'm just dreaming...because he's not coming back soon...

My perfect serene day would surprisingly be watching a summer night's thunderstorm on the couch, peering out of my large glass window. I would be wrapped in a blanket and sipping coffee, gazing as the raindrops slide down the window. I would be wearing the darling daydream floral sheer tank, my absolute favorite item from the lookbook.
My perfect serene day would be playing guitar all day on the beach, without any worries. I would go swim with fish and tan all day.
For this day, I can imagine easily math the flutter through the night sheer top with some white shorts in jean and a ample hat, like the live in sunshine straw hat!
Having a picnic outdoors with my daughter and my husband in the sunshine. I would wear the pocket full of posies skirt, rolling in the evening breeze eyelet top, and pick-a-posey light green cardi.
walking along the beach with my husband. I'd love a cute breezy dress to wear!
My perfectly serene moment would be a beautiful warm day walking along the water just around sunset, hearing the sounds of nature and nothing else. I'd wear the rolling in the breeze eyelet top with the I like you a latte polka dot skirt accented by the passionate heart applique belt with strappy wedges and a tiered pearl necklace.
I think my perfectly serene moment would be walking barefoot with my husband along the shore of a beach in late afternoon as the sun is starting to go down. I would wear a knee-length simple and airy white dress, a floppy hat, and the erythrina flower necklace!
My perfect serene day was on a school trip to Hawai'i. We stayed at a camp on the beach, and one morning I woke up really early and no one was awake. I sat on the beach, listening to the crashing of waves and bird songs as the sky slowly filled with light. I would style my favorite item, the wishful thinking crochet vest, with a floral bustier, high waisted denim cutoffs, and ray-ban wayfarers.
Lying on an oversized towel in my garden on a sunny day. Nothing beats the sun on your face and lying down making daisy chains. The ultimate serenity.

My serene day would be getting together with my good friends that I haven't seen in years! We would meet up at a Starbucks and catch up on the the things we haven't talked about over coffee. For this occasion, I'd wear the "Swept me of my feet chambray dress" and "soaking in the sun espadrille wedges." :)
dressed in my from the clouds ruffled dress with small town hearts watercolored short blazer
and olivia lane ruffle slingback wedges, i would be nestled into my husband's chest on a picnic blanket under a huge australian gum tree while the children frolic in the warm lakeside water licking sorbets!
My perfectly serene moments happen every day when I am flying around the house working or immersed in reading for graduate class, and my husband puts his arms around me and holds on for a few minutes. Without him, I would simply forget to be serene.
Here are some favorite items, and I think I would wear them everywhere with everything: the world is brighter with you coral dress, within the garden walls floral trench jacket by Ark & Co., floral whispers cream wedges
My serene moment happened one summer night after the last rain drop fell and the only noise I heard were the trickling of rain water down from the roof. I was sitting on the porch with my feet up and eyes closed...
My serene moment would have me reading in the sun on a lazy afternoon. My boyfriend will have fallen asleep on our picnic blanket beside me and a gentle breeze keeps me from getting too warm. I would wear the 'I'd rather be dreaming tank in navy' with cut off shorts and gladiator sandals.
My serene moment would be sunbathing on a boat in the middle of a quiet lake with my husband lying by my side and sipping on a frozen peach lemonade. I see me wearing the "roxanne striped two piece swimsuit" and the "live in sunshine straw hat" Aaahhh
My perfectly serene summer day would involve GETTING LOST and AWAY from the nasty heat I live in. Anything with the boy isn't too bad either. But a nice long drive, with lots of great coffee and some laughs sounds amazing as well.
To wear!?
I'd go with Sunlit Serenity piece number 7, all the way. Eventually, I'll have to kick the heels off though ;]
My perfect serene moment would be a walk by the beach, hand in hand with my fiance. The sun showering us with its warmth and the waves slowly covers our bare-feet while we walk. All I can hear is his voice and the sound of the breeze and the waves.
I would be wearing the beautiful and relaxing "tell me darling racerback crochet dress" and "isolde's legacy indie bow headband by Petit Plume", with a beautiful lace shawl to cover my bare shoulders.
http://deewardani.blogspot.com/
The moment would be laying on a blanket on a warm sandy beach after swimming in the sea for a reeeeally long time, wearing the 'aspiring aurora' bathing suit. When I'm completely dry and warm all over, I'd go for a walk along the beach, wearing the 'tell me darling' dress and 'whisper something sweet' cardi if it gets too windy; looking for pretty seaglass and seashells
Sitting in the grass, whatching the Tuscan sunset, smelling the lavender, the pasta that is being cooked and the grass you're sitting on.
That moment after a hot summerday when you realise it's cooling down at last and the sky is turning pink and purple.
That moment when you know tomorrow will be an as perfect day as today has been and imagining a life being like this.
That moment when you don't have anything to worry about, nothing on your mind but the fact that you're still wearing that "audrey navy polka dot two piece swimsuit" and your "I'll stand by you crochet back tunic" and deciding that you'll wear the "slow on sunday morning dress" for dinner although it is evening and you have no idea which day of the week it is.
In short that moment that is so perfect that you don't realise how perfect it is until later because everything is so perfect that you don't realise it at all.
(sorry for possible mistakes, English is not my mother tongue)
My serene moment would be watching the sun set on the beach with my sweetheart.
I would style the "Breakfast in bed floral dress" with the "Lacey lullaby jacket". Paired with this would be the "resting in the hammock sandals "Clarissa's charisma flower headband".
My Serenity Moment would take place on the sandy shores of a quiet lake. The fading light of a summer evening would dance off the glassy waters.
I'd wear the oceanside stripes halter top and running on luck pleated shorts in navy. I would also need the live in sunshine straw hat to complete my look.
My serene moment is sitting on the beach with my husband & baby girl watching what I call a sequined sunset-the moment the sun reaches the horizon an explosion of brightness occurs, like sequins bursting. It is my time to reflect how blessed I am-when nature and my world collide.
I'd wear "follow me home lace cardigan" over "darling daydreamer floral sheer tank" with "running on luck pleated navy shorts" and no shoes.

A perfectly serene moment for myself would be enjoying a cup of hot tea on the back porch while I slowly drink in the fading colours of the sunset. I love the Chelsea Crew "Susan" oxfords. I have a sundress and straw hat that would complement it perfectly!
I am at my most serene when I have a coffee and I get to drive around town looking for great bargains. I love to unwind and shut off my brain and just pick through aisles and racks of clothes and piece together new outfits :) :) :)
sitting on a beach in the sunset...watching the waves lap against the shore...listening to a baby's laugh on the towel beside me...taking endless pictures of every giggle... =)
i would wear...with bare feet, the i'd rather be dreaming navy tank with a wistful dreaming crochet vest and my good ol' faded jean shorts, and my hair loose around my shoulders. yum.
Taking my sweet daughter outside to run around in the grass barefoot. She runs to me with all smiles and I scoop her up as she babbles 'mama'. I wrap 'follow me home lace cardigan' around us both which will be hers one day.
White sandy beach, the sound of crashing waves, my girls laughing, and a cold pina colada in hand... no where to be, nothing to do.. just relaxing for as long as I want to... ooohh I can picture it now!!
My perfect serene moment is when I am drinking a cup of coffee in the streets of my hometown before I head to work. I am wearing the "running on luck white pleated shorts" with my previous purchases from ruche- my favorite light green cardigan and navy blue top from the last lookbook. I finish my outfit with the flower sandals that are close to selling out. Overall, I feel great enough to start my day and this moment of sereneness is something I enjoy!
My most serene moments are when I paddle the canoe out to the middle of our pond. I relax against the bow of the boat and read while nature (literally!)sings around me.
Sunlit Serenity would be the Sunlit Serenity look #9 (Either one!): easy, breezy, and comfortable.
Sitting under a gazebo on a rainy day reading a book and listening to the raindrops fall.
I'd wear the "I'd rather be dreaming navy tank" with "whisper something sweet lace cardi" and "dear ocean town trousers." For shoes I'd wear "restricted 'sprinkle' sandals"
I'd wear the "from the clouds ruffled dress" with a pair of nude sandals walking through a wonderful art museum soaking in the inspiration and beauty on a beautiful day, followed by some delicious crepes for lunch! Delicious food and beautiful art relax me the most.
It would definitely be a weekend at the beach, wearing something vintage and lacy with a flowing floral skirt and pretty espadrille sandals! Ahhhh, now I'm ready for a vacation. Er...and shopping!
My serene, happy place is walking down the cobblestone streets in Wilmington NC with my iced latte, checking out the antiques- wearing my "tell me darling racerback crochet dress" with my red wedges and red beads. The ocean air and warm humidity just does it for me!
Serenity is simple at my house- vintage lawnchair, iced coffee and sidewalk chalk for my two boys! Of course while I am sunning I need something as bright as their creations, so I would pick style 23- bright blue swimsuit and big floppy hat! This way I will not mind if I get a little wet when I hose them clean! <3
Well my personal perfectly serene moment was when I held my baby girl in my arms after being in labor for 21 hours. It was magical.
However if I had any other serene moment I would most likely pair it with a nice straw hat, embellished tank, high waist full skirt with belt and sandals. And it would probably be at Disney World :)
Gabi from Savannah, TX
Sitting in the sand at sunset with my man and his guitar. Perfection!
My serene moment is sitting in the sun in my back yard, drinking a glass of wine and reading a good book.
Nothin' beats the idea of lazing in a seaside hammock with a good book and some unsweetened iced tea while feelin sweet in a "swept me off my feet chambray dress" and bare feet :)

My Serene moment would be a peaceful and relaxing day at the bookstore. Sitting by the window while it is pouring outside, I am drinking a hot cup of coffee, reading some sweet and romantic novel. I listen to the soft and calming sounds of the rain outside and hear the hushed murmur of the people talking around me as i am engulfed in my book.
Curling up on the beach with a blanket, picnic breakfast, and well-worn copy of Robinson Crusoe is my idea of the perfectly serene moment. Early in the morning, the sand is cool to the touch and, with the big crowds still hours away, I could walk along the beach alone and content, holding onto my Live in the Sunshine Straw Hat and imagining I'm Crusoe as I watch my sandy footprints fade with the tide.

My perfect serene moment would be me driving to a remote place away from the city with only me, a cup of java, my iPod filled with indie music, and my camera where I would stop as many stops as I desire on the way to find that perfect snapshot. It's hard to just stop as I please when I drive with my husband. I don't think he has the patience for that.
For this I would wear the halter top and the pleated short shown on Serenity 10. Under it, I would put on the roxanne striped two piece swim suit so that when I'm done snapping, I could call up my bff to meet me at a beach nearby for some sun bathing and catch up on life.

My serene moment would be: On a not so sunny day on an isolated lush green beach, my husband and me sitting in front of the ocean and digging our feet into the cool sand.

To go along with it, I will be wearing a large cream straw hat with a bright sunflower on it and a big fabric tote bag. Time will freeze as we get lost in each other in this moment forever.
My perfect serene moment would be lying on the deck of a sailing boat with my boyfriend... enjoying the sun, the breeze and jumping in the water from time to time to refresh ourselves.

my perfect serene moment: taking a nice long stroll, just as the sun is coming up, before everyone is up and about. my usual route has me cutting across the dewy field. i love how the crinkle of the grass cuts through the morning silence, and how the world seems to wake up with every step i take. the blowing wind is peppered with birdcalls; you get the odd dog barking. it is slightly chilly and my feet get a little damp, but it's lovely all the same. i would wear the draped and dazzled applique top with the touch of vintage skirt in gray: simple, comfy and flowy.

Of course my man would be beside me breaking the silence only to share in the beauty surrounding us.

My serene moment is getting gelato with my boyfriend during the summer and sitting down at the park to eat, take in the summer breeze and spend quality time together. I'd wear the Across the Deep Blue Sea dress, Decadent Domori hat and Restricted Sprinkle sandals.
For a perfect summer day, I'd enjoy a tall glass of unsweetened sun tea by the breezy bay.

Okay, one of my favorite serene moments was getting to travel with my husband before we had kids (now 2 and 5 year old boys). One particular stop was in Cinque Terre, Italy. One late afternoon, we went to a tiny, outdoor cafe overlooking the ocean. We played cards while snacking on kalamata olives and sipping drinks. Time seemed to dissolve with the setting of the sun and the softening ocean breezes. It was quiet, still, and beautiful all around, and we just enjoyed that moment in time with one another, letting the rust colored sky, distant clinking dinner plates being set, and the salty, rustling waves soothe us. That memory has made that location one of our favorite places we traveled, and we were blessed to go to many wonderful places together.
I would wear the BEAUTIFUL "dizzy love applique top" with any pair of your fun white or khaki shorts. I would have a perfect seaside shoe, such as an espadrille or woven wedge sandal. I automatically thought of the dizzy love top, not only because it is one of my favorites, but because the name so well describes the moment--dizzy with love for my hubby and the fullness of my senses in that beautiful, romantic moment in time.
Walking along the beach with my live in sunshine straw hat, and that all dashing aspiring aurora one piece bathing suite. Dig my toes in the sand, staring off into the summer sunset; building a small fire pit with my friends. Roasting marshmellows and drinking organic tea, as the sun eliminates our moments. I'd wear the wistful dreamy vest to keep the stormy breeze away, and await the moon lit skies to guide us into this magical night.
My perfectly serene moment would take place on the beach where white sand meets clear turquoise waters and white rocky cliffs of the Mediterranean in Cassis, France. Not another person in sight, and just an hour or so before sunset, my husband would be serenading me with gentle guitar melodies on his Martin acoustic. We'd relax on the white sandy beach in the fading sunshine, curled up on a blanket with some baguettes, brie, Nutella, and a few bottles of wine. I'd lounge barefoot sweetly in the Serendipity Moment floral maxi, my long hair loosely braided across my shoulder under the Shores of Panama floppy hat. The Follow Me Home lace cardigan and Flower Strung Thong Sandals would be tossed to the side, waiting for the moment the sun finally eclipses the sea, and the cool salt breeze begins to chill us.
Serenity. In my hammock after hours of driving my body melts into my hammock and almost forget my feet are even there! The sun bleached rope of the hammock blend in perfectly with my strolling through the park woven wedges. The bay breeze is the perfect combination of the salty nautical air and the fresh water mixing. The same with my skirt and belt, wearing the cheyenne autumn wide woven belt and the in line with you striped skirt, reminding me of the ropes on the sail boat and the whimsical nautical stripes. As the sun starts to set I snuggle into my weightless hammock as and the evening breeze sets in and my rolling in the evening breeze eyelet top turns from white to gold in setting sun, and I want to hold on to the peaceful moment forever, in my serenity.
Perfect serene moment, laying on a blanket by the river in the late afternoon sun in my swept me off my feet chambray dress, fingers playing with my new citrus delight beaded necklace, as soft music plays in the background and I watch my husband and puppy play nearby.
My perfectly serene moment happens everytime I smell lilacs blooming in my yard. They remind me of my mom:)

I would wear, " in a bed of roses strapless dress" with the "courageous love ruched cardi" on top. I would pare this outfit with some red or black heals a flower in my hair and some curls to match!
In the green sunlight, under the honey-smelling chestnut tree, I'm twanging on my baroque lute's strings. My sweet love's head is on my knees. We've just had a picnic, and he gently fell asleep, listening to the music. In front of us, the river is flowing. End of the day. The moment is perfectly serene, I am wearing my mom's the word floral dress with an old porcelain brooch, a Ruche flower clip in my hair, and no shoes.
Gaaah, I'm wrong on the name of my dress. It's not the mom's word floral dress (that I oredered today, hence my error), it is the from the from the clouds dress :D
Sitting on my flight to Tx staring out at the white billowy clouds as we flew thru them.
Book, beer, breeze, sun, deck, ocean, floppy hat.
