As I mentioned last Saturday, one of my favorite Summer activities is going to garage sales on weekend mornings. Fortunately, my fiance T. share this same passion and that’s how I know we’re a match made in heaven. We have the same stamina and persistence when it comes to digging through other people’s trash in order to find what we’ll deem treasures.
What are some of your favorite summer time activities and what do you look forward to come weekend? S.
I love the colour of your Birkenstocks. I have three pairs – one which dates back to 2003 and I can’t bear to part with them.
I actually just had a garage sale yesterday and have to say if you would have come to mine you would have defnitely won “best dressed”. This is such a great, casual, pulled together outfit.
Jane – I know! I love how comfortable they are. These blue ones were a gift and I’m so happy with what my friend picked out for me!
Kimberly – oooh, I would have loved to be at your garage sale, I’m sure there were some treasures to be found there!

I LOVE love those birks as well – I had a pair for two years that I wore through and just bought another pair to replace them in silver (in addition to the nude pair I also own). They’re the best summer sandals! And the outfit you’ve put together compliments them so well!

very pretty look
I love all the blues in this outfit. Perfect outfit for a casual summer outing.
