Soaking up the Summer???

Photobucket

Good morning, loves! How are you all doing today? I'm doing great and loving every second of this gorgeous weather we're having. It seriously feels like summer.

Sandals and sundresses are out, people are sunbathing in the parks, and all of the restaurant patios are wide open and packed with some very happy people. Now I just hope it stays this way.

Hope you're all enjoying some lovely weather as well!

And before I go, I'd like to announce the winner of the Shopbop $100 gift card giveaway. It's Katie from Fashion's Maven!

Congrats Katie! Please email me and I'll be sure to get it on it's way to you.
And thank you all for taking part!

xoxo

    We've been having changing weather lately, one day rain, one day sunshine. But it's been warm enough to enjoy it anyway. :)

    Are you serious!!?? I'm super jealous! My friends back home in Toronto are saying that the weather is like summer too but over here in France it's still winter...actually, it's more like fall. France apparently has 1 season all year round and that season is fall.

    Oh I am so jealous of your warm weather!! It has been so cold here - it even snowed a bit yesterday, but at least it didn't stick. It is supposed to warm up this weekend and I cannot wait!
    Much love,

    Hi Dawn! Love these images ... that first one reminds me of a lazy summer afternoon where you just plop down on the grass to read a magazine and soak up some rays. And congratulations to the lucky winner! How fun!

    Can't tell you how happy I am to be heading into warm weather days!!! Have a lovely week, sweets! xox
