Summer: Flip flops have found their destination. The season has also given a reason to embrace umbrellas and rain boots.

The charms of the wild rose, new-mown hay, baked bread, buttered popcorn, smell of coffee, frying bacon and the smell of rain hitting dry ground! Everything felt a little bit livelier. Awesome!

A murky weekend is the ideal excuse to pack up a picnic basket and enjoy the great outdoors.

Salt in the air, sun kissed hair. Harley bikers are back. Jazz on the streets, kite surfing, fireworks, festivals, music, night bazaar, movies & popcorns, farmers market, strange flowers, sunglasses, journal, sun hat, country side, beaches, no makeup and the list goes on. I feel summer creepin' in. Every summer has a story. Bliss is the sand between my toes. Some of the best memories are made in flip flops! It’s a smirk, it's a memoir, it's a sip of lemonade... it's summertime!

The sky was back to a milky-grey and the dripping trees were a darker shade of green; but the most striking change— hottest week is gone and the flip flops have found their destination

This is it. The summer guest birds are gone. The last week of summer is upon us and fall is just around the corner. You blinked, and suddenly it’s almost the end of summer! Let’s blame it on September, for getting it a speeding ticket. Bye bye summer time. We enjoyed every single moment! The good, the bad, the beautiful, the ugly, the stunning, the not-so-glamorous and awesome moments. Summer 2013 was pretty incredible! We heart it. The tans will fade, but the memories will last forever.
