What I wore: Welcome June

June came so soon! 

Hard to believe we are half way through this year already,

time sure does fly faster the older you get. I was having a conversation with my sister about cars.. (funny i know) and how in my head a '2000 model car' to me sounds brand new... and really its 12 years old!!! hahah puts my little old 1997 car under the "antique" label.. hahah jkjk.

The weather has been so so nice here in the south.  I thought for sure we'd miss our spring and head straight to hot and humid 90 degree days in february!! But, we've had an amazing spring.. and now we are still having some nice 75 degree days sprinkled in the hot ones! So so great, makes me happy!

Went to the monthly antique mart at Metrolina this weekend.. just to look, got some cool scissors but that's all. It just felt so nice to walk around and feel the breeze! 

Here's what i wore:

 

 top: h&m

shorts: 7 for all man kind 

boots: mossimo

bag: tignanello

season

I am trying not to wish away the warmth and sunshine, because Lord knows i need it to keep me sane.  But I cant stop thinking about fall, and leaves, and home made soups and layers and fall time goodness!!!  These pictures make me giddy for autumn.  Meanwhile, I've got the fan full blast and my jean shorts on. 

Happy Thursday!

he's home, hallelujah.

It's not normal yet.

I don't think it will ever be like it was before.

Because it's better.

Distance makes the heart grow fonder.

Glad he's home.

Glad it's summer time in Charlotte.

Thankful for this new season,  my heart needed it.

The winds have changed, the Lord is good.

photos from monday night, we walked to the park and swung on the swings :) i love our little street.
hope your week is sweet and filled with hope.
Cause a lot of times hope is hard to find, but this week is filled with it and it makes me so happy!
love,

The Ocean

I've been dreaming of sand and sunshine.

I have already started planning 2 beach trips in 2 months!

So excited i can hardly wait!

and my birthday is so soon, i have so much to look forward to.

Im honestly more of an umbrella and a book on the beach kind of girl, but i do love relaxing there. It's just a major ordeal to cover every inch of my skin in spf75! haha ( i burn like a baby )

But looking at these photos makes for a dreamy afternoon.

Hope you're having a great weekend.

I wonder what kind of beach adventures everyone else will be taking!
