Summer Market

Here is the final installment of my vacation photos. One of our Vineyard adventures involved this adorable farmer's market, which had everything from homemade jam to beautiful flowers. 

Although it is shocking for me to admit, this clutch was the only handbag I brought on this trip! Usually I would bring a few different ones, just to have the choice. But I just recently received this green clutch from a wonderful family friend, and thought that vacation would be a lovely time to try it out. In general, I am not a huge fan of clutches because they constantly occupy one of my hands. However, I think this one is very cute and I will still use it from time to time.

I hope you have enjoyed these vacation outfits!

Coastal Prep

Hello lovelies! This is part two of three in my installation of vacation posts. Now, I will admit that this outfit is a bit on the preppy side for me. Normally I stick to a more vintage style. But we were going out to a nice restaurant for dinner, and I could not resist the idea of going out to the harbor in this summery ensemble. 

These photos were taken by my wonderful best friend Erin, who I am posing with in the eighth picture. She and her family were so nice to invite me on their annual trip, and I am so happy I got to experience all these amazing moments and sights with them.

I hope you enjoy your day! xo

Hello darlings! I hope you are all having a wonderful Saturday!

Earlier this month, I promised to post outfit photos from my vacation on Martha's Vineyard, and I finally have them for you! 

My best friend's family was staying just four houses down from this pretty beach, so this was where we did our first vacation photo shoot. 

I have to say that as much as I LOVE this shirt, my favorite part of the outfit is the silver starfish necklace! I have been wanting one for quite some time, and I finally found the perfect one on the Vineyard. And at half of it's original price, it was clearly meant to be!

GREEN AND PINK: A WINNING COMBINATION

This was probably the best summer day I could have asked for. My friend Liv and I took a long walk through one of our favorite ocean-front towns, and took today's blog pictures in this lovely park. The weather was absolutely perfect. We treated ourselves to a new pair of jeans each (mine are white skinnies with ankle zippers), dinner at a nearby restaurant, and some soft serve coconut ice cream- yum! I am definitely looking forward to more wonderful summer afternoons like this one.

OUT IN THE GARDEN

I think this bag is so adorable. The size does not make it the most functional purse in the world, but it is fine if you just need to take a few essentials on your journey. This blouse also happens to be one of my favorites, because I love the sea foam color.

This park is so beautiful. It is one of my favorite places to go in the summer, because there are so many paths to explore. My best friend and I were lucky to escape the thunder storm which came not too long after we left.

The necklace I'm wearing was made by a friend of my former Pastor's, in Kenya. It has always held special value to me because I love to think about the way he had it sent all the way to me. 

Enjoy this beautiful summery day!

THE JOYS OF SUMMER

My best friend does not give herself enough credit as a photographer. She took these lovely photos of me in her yard this afternoon. I've missed this blog a lot, and I decided that now that I have my own computer it's time to start posting again!

Yesterday I picked up this denim skirt at a clothing sale at a neighbor's house. Foolishly, I did not try it on before I bought it, but I found that it fits just fine when worn with a belt and a tucked-in shirt. I will be posting much more often from now on!

The color of these tights is a bit hard to describe- they are sort of a burnt reddish-orange. It was very nice out today, which makes me super happy! Hopefully spring is just around the corner.
