A Tribute to Summer

Ah, Summer.  Dear readers, it's just around the bend!  We (at least I) have been counting down since spring break (10 WEEKS AGO!!) and it is so close, I can smell the sunscreen in the air.  Are we excited? I think yes!

I currently have no interest in studying anymore for my French final (vraiment!), so I'm letting my mind drift to thoughts of the happiest season there is... and since I've noticed a build up of 'summer pictures' on my Pinterest lately I just thought I'd share a few (okay, a lot) to evoke some mid-finals week perspective... because WE ARE ALMOST OUT AND FREE!!  Get excited!!  

So what does summer bring to mind?  I'm about to show you. By category :)

(...Can you tell I'm excited?)


FUN!  The unbeatable joy of being carefree.  Barbecues, parties, beach days...

THE BEACH!  Whether you like to splash in the waves or lounge surf side, there's nothing like a day at the beach.  

                                                   

SWIMSUITS!  And not speedos, mind you.  Summer is bikini season!

                 

FASHION!  Shorts, dresses, skirts!  Easy and breezy.

(And don't forget to flaunt those legs!)

A shout out to the marvelous Cat and her colorblocking!! ;)

the devastatingly glamorous glamorai

have you noticed there has been a lot of orange... not sure if thats just this season or just me :)

is this not the spitting image of our lovely bird-of-a-feather Catherine??   

really just for fun!

TRAVEL!  What better time to explore?

HOLIDAYS!  For us Americans, we have Independence Day and Memorial Day. God Bless America!

FOOD!  Namely, anything frozen/slushy/fruity.  Especially in Texas!  

 

HAIR!  Now's the time to play with color, braids (I'm talking to YOU kelly and kayla my dears), and headbands.  

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST... Don't forget to do a little bit of this

And like Ms. Bardott, jump for joy and JUST HAVE FUN!

Well, that's all for now dear readers. I hope you've enjoyed these pictures and they've sparked some happy thoughts of summer!  Keep reading :)
