Hi Friends! It's that time! Time for the Monthly Musings Linkup with Patty and me!
This month we are talking all things Late Summer Fashion and Fun and we are answering these questions...
Soooo...here...we...go....
1. Summer travel- where you have been and what trips are still coming up?
Unfortunately no travel for us this summer...tight time...we need to go visit colleges too but I am afraid that won't be happening until the spring...stay tuned! We enjoyed 4th of July weekend at our friends' lake house and a few ladies are going back up there in a few weeks for a concert and overnight :)
2. Favorite things you have done so far this summer?
4th of July Weekend at the Lake- an overnight in Boston while the kids were at Lana Del Rey and lots of walking and reading and driving around with the top down...all simple but holding onto these days while my girls are at home
3. Share Your Go To Outfits This Summer
You would laugh but my go-to this summer is athletic leggings, a tank top and sneakers...I throw on a cardigan for business meetings on video and then throw on a suit or dress for in person meetings...that is pretty much it! Once in awhile, I am getting out and get to throw on a sundress or pants with a tank...pretty basic and boring... AND I stink at taking pics of my outfits...I resolve to get better at this..maybe I should aim for the Fall?
4. Summer Accessories You Are Never Without?
Sunglasses and Flip Flops!
5. Share Your Go To Shoes This Summer
I have been LIVING IN my Nike Vomero 17s- so comfy- so much support- excellent cross trainer AND stylish FTW!
6. Share Anything Spontaneous You Did This Summer- Big or Small
Ummm....nothing? Gosh I sound so boring...not really myself right now...hope I get my spark and fun back come fall....BUT YET our friends just invited us to go to the Red Sox Yankees Game at Fenway on Sunday night and we said YES...OMG so so excited! Very spontaneous...unexpected....and getting me fired up...woohoo!
7. Have You Seen Any Summer Movies Yet?
Negative
8. Favorite Summer Sweet Treat?
Blueberry Pie Ice Cream from Pete's Scoop in a nearby town here...delish!
9. Summer Slow Down or Ready For Fall?
Usually I say Summer Slow Down BUT this year I am verrryyy excited about some great things that could happen this fall so can I say both? HA!!
10. Ready for Back To School?
I really am this year- really am and for good reasons :)
and here is our schedule for the rest of the year if you wanna join in on the fun!
The baseball game with friends sounds really fun as does a return to the lake house. I never take pictures of just me wearing my outfits- I used pictures from the summer that showed me in my summer uniform (of sorts!). I´m glad you´re looking forward to the fall. Have a great Thursday!
ReplyDeleteOMG that ice cream looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteAnd a trip to the ballpark is always fun! As much as I hate the Yankees (thanks to my grandpa), I will have to say Go Yanks, since the Sox are nipping at the Royals heels for the final wild card spot. With a lot of baseball left to play.
I agree, this summer has felt a bit different. I'm sorry you aren't feeling your sparkle right now. I hope it comes back soon! The baseball game sounds so fun!! Enjoy!!!
ReplyDeleteI totally forgot that we went to our friends' lake house for a day - should have said that was one of my favorites! We had a great time swimming and jet skiing.
ReplyDeleteDitto on the sunglasses - a summer must have! Thanks for hosting Monthly Musings.
ReplyDeleteThis was such a fun topic this month and I enjoyed reading your answers. I love your sunglasses and sneakers. Have a nice weekend Holly.
ReplyDeleteThe baseball game sounds like fun! Some seasons are tougher than other for lots of reasons. And some who seem sparkly on line are struggling behind the scenes too. Work and kids and work and bills can be boring at times, but that's life and we have to just push through, which you seem to be doing very well. I think you seem pretty sparkly here on the blog : ) Have a great time at the game!
ReplyDeleteLoved this and the game sounds so fun! I am a Yankees fan, but either way, watching those 2 teams play is classic baseball. Thanks for hosting this!
ReplyDeleteHave the Best time at the game this weekend. Go Red Sox!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat ice cream looks delicious! My summer outfits have been very similar!
ReplyDeleteThe ice cream looks so good! I'm sorry this summer sounds like it hasn't been the best for you, but you are such a positive example of finding joy in the small things. Here's hoping your fall is the best ever!
