Embracing a Classic

All of us gals have a type. In men do you swoon over the strong silent type or a bearded hipster?or maybe the tall,dark and handsome guy floats your boat. In clothing do you favor a traditional blazer? or perhaps a bohemian maxi dress? or perhaps town and country boots are more your style. In houses do you peruse Zillow for a neat cape cod,or a stately colonial,or maybe a stone tudor?
For me I don't have so much a type as a color. I brake for white with black trim.


Over the years Southern Living has featured some beauties.




In blog land there are some really gorgeous homes but the white clapboards with black shutter homes make my heart go pitter patter
Susan Branch's blog and home are both truly endearing.


Joan's labor of love is an inspiration to many.


And didn't we all go along with Bunny's affair with this house?


And one of our all time favorite movies featured this charming home in a lead role.


And Dallas Ft. Worth area has its' share of lovelies.




So I've decided to embrace my type. For my new forever house I'm going white and black!
