Big Moon

One of the best things about summer is that I can take outfit photos pretty much everyday. I can come home from work, eat dinner, then go to the beach and take photos at my leisure without worrying about it being dark or cold.

I can even catch beautiful sights like a rising moon at sunset.

I love summer.

  2. Summer is perfect for that exact reason! There just seems to be a little extra time and the temperatures are so ideal. :D

    This top is so pretty! It reminds me of mermaids and seaweed... in a totally good way. :)

  5. Wow, that last shot is beautiful! You're such a talented photographer. I may have complained some about the heat, but I love the long days--I wish it stayed light like this forever! Gorgeous look, I love that printed top!

  6. Aw I love summer too! I'll take unbearable heat to unbearable cold any day! And I love the extra light in the day as well. These are beautiful pictures as always Lydia--especially the last one! And I love the pockets on your skirt too!

  7. I'm glad one of us likes the summer! Although seeing these gorgeous photos makes me miss New Haven (even the weather) just a little bit. And, of course, you look gorgeous as always!

  9. Love the green paisley shirt! And oh, yes, I love summer too, only thing is that I wish I did not get weird prickly heat all over because of over exposure to the sun!

  29. That last photo is fantastic. I was just marveling at how delightfully light it is still at 9 o'clock... I've got to stay out late one night because soon enough it will be dark all the time again.

    Also, this shirt is totally fantastic. You've gotten quite a few amazing new pieces lately!

  30. I love how you paired the bold blues with the neutral skirt - great combo!

  31. I love summer for the same reason. The extra daylight is great for outfit photos and for spending time outdoors in the evenings. I love how you styled your paisley shirt.

  32. I am coming to piece with this summer, mainly because I have to, and it also helps that it hasn't been as hot at the last couple of Summers, plus we visit the pool almost every other day so that helps me keep cool. I wish I had a beach close to my house though, do you ever go swimming? =)

  33. Love this casual outfit! It makes you want to go outside and enjoy the breeze.

  34. You look absolutely lovely as always! I've adored your style ever since I came across your blog, but lately you have been killin' it girl! You always look so amazing and well put together! I'm inspired!

  35. I love summer too although I would like some sunshine to go with the lighter nights over here.
    I love that simple but stylish look.

  36. Cute blog! I absolutely love your style. The colors in this shirt look amazing!

  37. Lucky, lucky style blogger to have the beach close by in summer. I'm so jealous I can't stand myself...lol.

    I recently thrifted a similar skirt (with Megan Mae Daily during our blogger meetup), but can't wear it until the weather is cooler (or not 100 degrees :) I will be looking for a similar shirt to yours - absolutely love the pattern, esp down the button front.
