Every color I love combined into one dress with fringe…I can’t even contain my excitement. And it allowed for the hot pink suede pumps to come out and play again. Do yourself a favor and visit one of my favorite boutiques, Mel & Mimi, and buy this dress. Yourself will thank you. It’s easy, and while it’s patterned, it’s so versatile you’ll find yourself reaching for it and switching up accessories often.

I love Saturdays when we’re home with few plans. We seem to stay on the go, which is also fun, but there’s something to be said about days when you can take your time reading the WSJ, drink multiple cups of coffee and enjoy a casual breakfast at the bakery.

Receiving a gift is always so exciting. Receiving a gift you truly love is simply heart touching. A dear friend was in New Orleans and found this dress and bought simply because she thought it “looked just like me.” I couldn’t agree more, and but I’m most thankful to have friends in my life who are so thoughtful. This little frock also makes me happy because it’s so ladylike, AND it makes me think of a wedding…cake, of course! Didn’t you see all the tiers of the dress. Ah, it really is a happy dress.

Here’s what you can count on for summertime weather in the South: HOT temps, HIGH humidity, and HEAVY rain showers. I spend most days praying for nothing higher than 90 degrees, low humidity and no rain since most of my work days are spent in and out of offices all across northwest Georgia and northeast Alabama. And while the heat and humidity often seems like my worst enemy, it’s really the cold that kills me. And by cold, I mean offices that I spend my time in each day. So, without making this a story where I complain about the bipolar temperatures I encounter every day, I’ll turn this into how much I love mixing textures – even in the summer months.

A pop up rain storm threatened our date at Barnsley Gardens, but spending a few uninterrupted hours with J was exactly what I needed over the weekend. If I’ve learned anything this year, I’ve learned to take what comes your way and savor every moment. And in this moment, I just can’t get enough of this peplum blouse.
