Kissing again


Did we not just have the most beautiful weekend? It felt exactly as summer should, and as quickly as this first week of June has just passed by, I know I'm in trouble. I want summer to go as slowly as possible, but with so many busy weekends ahead of me, I fear I will once again fail at savoring summer. 

I want early morning walks, trips to the beach, dining al fresco, picnics, day trips, fireworks, concerts and late nights, tons of ice cream...

What do you want most this summer?

  2. Summer truly feels slipping away already even not started properly. Hope we'll have many beautiful summer days and evenings to spend in style, like you did with this gorgeous look. Oh, that Tee is just so adorable and seem to work with anything what you pair with. Great piece to have in wardrobe.

  17. Well unfortunately our whole weekend was chilly and rainy. But the rest of the week promises to be sunny and warm! I love this tee so much. Looks great with the military jacket and graphic skirt!

  18. Nice skirt. I like the way the stripes are all over the place.

  19. A beach trip! I feel that if I don't go to the beach at least once each summer, it's a fail. Also, I've been wanting to do this for ages and maybe this summer I finally will- see a movie in Bryant Park!

  20. I love that J.Crew T-Shirt. I like your mix of dressy and casual.

  32. Aaah, those sound like such lovely summer things to do, Miss Lydia! I myself am looking forward to taking lots of pictures, just straight up relaxing and reading tons of books in my cozy papasan chair, and maybe going on a few hikes and bike rides. I'm glad my job is pretty low-key this year (I can't work on illustrations more than 10 hours a week, which is nice that I have a limit lol) and also that my job isn't working out at a hot pool. That pool job the last three summers paid pretty nice, but it was hot, exhausting, and took 5 hours out of my day and basically rendered that day useless. XD

    Woop, I'm rambling! Anywho, I love that olive jacket yet again. And that skirt is so fun--very postmodern!

  33. I love this outfit! I wear a very similar one with the same skirt, tee, jacket combo. I hope you get to enjoy summer! It's a little longer down here in the south. We usually get summer through mid September!

  34. What an adorable skirt!! I love the print! How fun. This is such a cute look! I want to go to the beach the most this summer, but it sadly isn't going to happen.

  35. Oh, those elusive summer days... the ones we dream of, that we see in movies but so rarely happen because life gets in the way. I know just how you feel and summer isn't even my season! Although this year, like every year, I'm hoping for beautiful weather... which is never guaranteed in the Pacific Northwest, no matter what the season. I'm loving this (mostly) black and white look on you. You've reminded me that I need more black and white prints in my wardrobe ;)
    xox,

  36. That bag <3 YASSSS! Haha! Love this entire look! As for what I want more of this summer, I definitely have to say the BEACH! I live in North Texas so there aren't any beaches here. I really want to take a trip to the coast and soak in some sun :)
