Are you planning any fun activities this spring and summer? One of my favorite things to do is reading outside (when there are no bugs nearby) with a glass of iced tea and chips. When I was in Austin, my brothers and I stumbled across a farmers' market. There are a bunch near me and I really want to start going to them more regularly.
Fields of Flowers
Flowers, flowers, flowers! They're everywhere and they're beautiful. Pretty pink petals are all over the grass and flowers of all colors have sprouted. If you're going to be inspired by flowers, you have to go for something feminine: a pale pink printed dress, a floral necklace, yellow flats, and a yellow backpack. Or put on a blue peter pan collar top, a floral midi skirt, a moon necklace, and black loafers.
Farmers' Market Shopping
Who doesn't enjoy some Saturday afternoon farmers' market shopping? Picking up fresh seasonal fruits and veggies as well as pretty flowers, handmade soap, and delicious chocolate is always a good time. Wear a casual look: a striped tee, jeans, a black watch, and black pumps. Or throw on something a bit girly: a red cardigan, a black printed dress, pink bracelets, and nude flats.
Picnic Time
Picnics are the best, aren't they? I'm all about spending time with people I love, whether it's a significant other, friends, or family, surrounded by fresh food and cold drinks and maybe some grilled burgers (or veggie burgers). Throw on a plaid shirt, a long necklace, jeans, and teal sneakers, or a gray cardigan, a pink dress, blue bracelets, a floral backpack, and black wedges.
Reading Outside
Grab a new book (or an old favorite), a cold drink, some cookies or chips or a fruit salad, and head outside. Relaxing in a hammock would be ideal (le duh), but I also love reading by the pool or at a bench in a park or sitting outside a Starbucks. Go casual and chic: a pale pink jacket, a gray tee, black high-waisted jeans, and beige booties. Or put on a purple blazer, a black dress, gold rings, and brown heels.
