Good morning, loves! Hope your week is off to a wonderful start.
The summer is winding down on over here and I've been doing everything possible to soak up the last few days of it. The past weekend sunning at the beach and then last night we went out for a lovely al fresco dinner to send the summer off in style. It's been such a wonderful summer and I'm sad to see it go but I'll always have the memories to cherish forever.
How are you all celebrating the end of the season? Or are you already in full on fall mode? And for those of you lucky enough to be entering spring, I plan on living vicariously through you for the next half year or so :)
Enjoy the day, sweets!
xoxo

Since we just got back from the beach I am now saying summer is officially over - although since we came home to pouring rain I already want it back!

I'm slowly getting used to fall, which has not been too hard as the weather has been pretty warm so far. xo
we are celebrating with an end of summer family photo shoot!! :)
i love that outfit in the first photo!!

Sandy a la Mode
A little champagne to start the Autumn - perfect!
It is getting cold here!!!
I like that we actually seem to be easing into the fall instead of it just going from hot to chilly in an instant. I am looking forward to that crisp chill in the morning that will be coming soon :)
Hope you stay dry today Dawn!

I was quite excited to say good-bye to this summer & embrace a new season. My pumpkins & pumpkin spice candle have been out for 2 weeks!
I'm in full Fall mode. Last night my friends and I dined on a cafe terrace and by the end were shivering. Good thing I brought a blazer! Fall is here!
I'm celebrating by finally wearing pants. I couldn't for so long due to the horrible heat!!! And I can't wait to decorate for Halloween!!!! xoox
I am pretty much in full fall mode because Minneapolis is in full fall mode - but that is not too bad because we still have bright sun and some warm afternoons! Hope you are having a good Tuesday!
Much love,
B
I've been planning on living vicariously through those with reversed seasons as well! Every time an Aussie blogger posts about spring I think "thank you." haha
I must say I'm ready for fall, although I will miss your beach pics :)
Sadly I said good bye yesterday when I felt cold in a short sleeve shirt....until next summer!!!
This past week we had a surge of high temps -- 110 degrees which is the hottest I have ever seen San Diego in all my days living here. Our heat wave was the longest ever this year, so I have to admit I'm ready for some cooler temps! Love these images so much!

PS. Thank you so much for your sweet comment on my latest post. You always make me smile!
I am definitely in full fall mode - can't wait for the crisp weather! But I do feel that the summer went by so quickly.
If only I could live in summer permanently, I'd be happy! But the Fall in NYC is pretty special too... so I'm not complaining too much! Hope you have an amazing week!
Hope you are having a great week.
Greetings from Amsterdam.
Love the first pic! I need that dress!
Such a lovely post, Dawn. I'm looking forward to fall so much. I actually hate summer, so I'm extremely happy I have three beautiful seasons to enjoy before summer rolls back around again.
Have a wonderful day!
xoxo
Ahhh girl, you have had a wonderful summer! :) All your travels, a big birthday, so much fun! Normally I'm sad about summer ending, but this year I'm in full fall mode! I'm loving this weather right now - if only it could stay in the high 70's all year long! :) xx
Hi Dawn,
So neat that you are still embracing summer and enjoying a weekend at the beach.
I will share some of my Spring flowers with you.
Enjoy the rest of the week
Hugs

Oh I'm *fully* embracing fall...of course fall in Phoenix isn't much like fall!!! I'm just relieved that I might be able to enjoy the outdoors soon! That ruffled dress is *fantastic*...
I am ready for fall! It's been too humid for me this summer. Bring on the chill -- and thick sweaters! xo style, she wrote
Great photos and post! I love the autumn, hmm maybe it's an age thing, I don't know but I sort of like the most of it. But that said, it is strongly connected to first having a gorgeous and long summer:) xo Caroline
Such beautiful photos...
Your last summer days sound wonderful and well spent.
Hope you're having a great week!
What a lovely way to celebrate the end of the summer; by a al fresco dinner, Dawn! Well, I am assuming this fall because we have no rain yet, but once the rain starts and the cold weather, then will be not that good! Have a lovely day :*
We are fortunate to have change of seasons. Some states.. it's so subtle. I remember growing up in CA and it being 80 during around the holidays! Seattle has had a gorgeous summer. Yesterday it was in the low 80's.. Our green, lush forest is looking dry and I' sure rain will be here soon to replenish and clean things up. Ice and snow will follow.. with lots of darkness.
I'm so glad you are squeezing out every last bit of summer!
I'm always finding it hard to say Bye to summer - but I've started to put the fire on, and that's lovely and cosy :) xoxo
The beginning of fall started over here: rain and low temperatures :(. But I can wear my trenchcoat again :) xoxo
Sounds like a perfect summer and it's time to usher in fall! :)
End of summer! when did it end?? lol i'm celebrating by planning a beautiful 250 person wedding on the hudson river. when wedding season winds down we need a BIG bottle of red! miss you d!
eating al fresco ALL the way right now!!! - i'm pretty much ready for fall this year *gasp* i know, i would of NEVER thought i would of said that either!
Dawn,
This is really a great reminder to savor these last few official days of summer. What a gorgeous week, now that the nasty storm has moved through!
I have to admit, I picked up some pumpkins today and I've been burning my Nest pumpkin candle. I think I'm ready to welcome Fall!
xoxo Elizabeth
Now I've fully embraced it and the cozy feeling
Such romantic pics! LOVE them!
XOXO

i am looking forward to fall, but am trying to get as much out of summer as possible!
Still catching up on my blog reading from vacation. Love these photos!
I'm really trying to get into Fall, pulling out my boots and sweaters - but we keep have 90 degree days which is making it quite hard!
