Hello Summer!






This particular trip to the beach was actually taken a couple of weeks ago, so forgive me.  However, nothing says summer like the BEACH.  Oh the joy of living in Southern California, where the weather is warm and the beaches are plenty.  Although my 16 month old son is still not used to it and is yet unable to fully enjoy the beach, he will learn to love it.  Hope everyone had a great start to their summer!

Friday's Favorite-Shirtwaist Dress


I recently saw this picture on Elle's Daily Street Chic e-mails that get sent to me, well, daily.  I love the timeless elegance and chicness a good shirtwaist dress brings.  It is so versatile and can be worn on many different occassions and can be styled in various ways.

This particular person's dress is not vintage, but takes such vintage elements.  She combines her vintage-esque Oscar de la Renta dress with a vintage scarf, a roach pin, and some tall stilettos. She looks amazing!  I have many shirtwaist dresses in my closet, some vintage, some not, but this picture makes me want to go buy another one on Etsy and a pretty scarf to match it.

The weather was a bit gloomy at 7 a.m.

Isn't she a cutie?

When I get a porch, I want this on it!



This made me want to have another baby!

Gorgeous window frames for sale!

Sorry for the unedited pictures.  I still have more to share about the fun day!
