Breakfast with Justina Blakeney







“I tend to wake up early–before the rest of my household wakes up (my husband and cat) and so breakfast-time is my quiet time. I become pensive and think about what I want to accomplish during my day. I wish the l’il Boomba in my belly a good morning. I have my earl grey tea with a teaspoon of twitter and a splash of a magazine to get connected and inspired. I take my prenatal vitamins with a little OJ, and then enjoy a later breakfast with the boys when they wake up. I feel fresh and alert in the mornings, grateful for the opportunity to enjoy another day.”
Justina Blakeney is a designer and consultant.


I am in love with these bright colours. So bright and classy. Love your series :)

The colours in this post are so rich, and Justine’s house is just gorgeous – so full of texture and detail.

Thank you thank you thank you! I know a few years from I am truly going to cherish these photos–as I have a feeling my quiet, pensive ‘quiet’ time won;t be so quiet anymore with a toddler running around. Ha! Thank you B–for so beautifully capturing this special time in my life and in the life of my growing family. With love, ~J

Just found your blog via Joy the Baker–what beautiful photos! May I be totally nosy and ask where your mug is from…? It’s (almost) as gorgeous as you!

Hi Caroline! Thanks for the sweet compliment! It’s not at all nosy to ask about the mug–but unless you live in Mexico, I fear my answer won’t be too helpful! I got the mug at a little ceramic shop in Cabo San Lucas–it was so big and so pretty I had to have it! Sometimes this site has similar mugs in their in inventory!
