summer recap

may summer
 
In May, we started the summer off to a great start. Souwan and I did a lot of yard work. We added tons of mulch, planted flowers and started a vegetable garden.
 
We attended  a great Kentucky Derby party at the Kilted Buffalo.
 
Souwan and I got out to the lake to watch the Dragon Boat Festival.
 
Then, we traveled out to the coast for my cousin Tom's graduation at East Carolina University.
 
 
june summer
 
In June, we celebrated our first anniversary as husband and wife at the beach. We enjoyed boardwalk at the beach, swimming and the sun time.
 
Souwan had a blast at the car show in our downtown.
 
Our friend Allison treated us to ice cream at her favorite new shop.
 
Our garden vegetables were growing very nicely in June. Our first garden did great! Can't wait to plant more vegetables for the fall.
 
july summer
 
We're wrapping up our summer in July. It's not over yet! We celebrated fourth of July with huge fireworks put on by our friend and cousins.
 
Souwan treated me to lunch date at Childress vineyard. I adore the seafood soup and the margarita slush drink. 
 
My cousin's were baptized and we got to visit my uncle's garden. We picked a bag full of blueberries from his garden.
 
Our church had a tomato sandwich dinner. Everyone found out Souwan was not a fan of tomatoes.
 
Souwan and I watched the first market chef at our favorite place... the farmer's market.
 
Last, we visited Souwan's family in Alabama. It was great to see everyone again!
 
 
The next few weeks of summer will be busy with more trips to the beach, mountain, and my girlfriend's wedding! I'm excited. I hope you are enjoying summer and all summer things!

outfit of the day: casual denim shorts and sperry's

what i wore: cynthia rowley tee, american eagle shorts, thrifted belt, juicy couture bracelet, belk's charm bracelet, old navy aviator shades, sperry's top-sider boat shoes. I wore this out for a few errands with the fiance. My car battery needed replacing, I have worn that thing out. Ex. leaving it on while taking naps during lunch. Don't do this ladies. Ha! This look is so comfy and definitely a repeat when I'm running around town.

outfit of the day: fall favorites

These outfit posts were from last years' blog posts. You maybe wondering why? I have been consuming soup and cough drops for the past 5 days-I have been sick with a cold. Instead I have a flashback of my look from fall last year. I'm looking forward to showing you all new looks and innovating new with old pieces from my closet. ļ»æ

makeup monday: blush shades

I'm wearing Maybelline Mineral Power in Rose I'm wearing Mark. blush from natural palette Blush colors: from left to right E.L.F in Coral Mark. Natural Palette Mark. Clutch on the go palette Maybelline dream bouncy blush in pink frosting Maybelline minerals power in rose Mark. Clutch on the go palette (2nd color) My many different blush color choices thru the seasons. I choose coral and neutral colors during the summer and when the fall/winter come I change to pinks and rose colors. My skin is a medium tone and rose/pink colors look best. If you are a lighter skin tone (like Emma Stone or Rachel McAdams) I would go with apricot to coral pink colors for a natural look. Hope you have a magnificent week! ļ»æ
