Summer Snapshots


Happy Friday beautiful ones! I wanted to share some of my favorite summer moments with you and some of the things I love the most about this time of year. I also want to thank Tyesha Brown author of the fabulous blog Diary of a Chic Mommy for featuring me on her Friday blogger feature. You can check it out here
This time of year if the time I love to be outdoors. You will often find me and my son dining Al Fresco at one of my favorite bistros or having picnics in the park.  Music festivals, food events, art gallery openings, fashion events, farmers markets, chasing food trucks, thrifting in the city and devouring Gelato all make me smile and are a big part of my summer. During the winter months when it is cold, I tend to hibernate a little more. What do you love about summer? What are your favorite things to do?


Summer is a great excuse to wear bold colors, although I don't need an excuse LOL

Eat Ice Cream!


Wear Gorgeous Shades of Neon

Wear flirty dresses and sexy sandals

Drink icy cold orange crush!


Wear cute sunglasses:-)

Make a color block dessert:-) Get my recipe here


Eat Sorbet sandwiches. Never had one? try my recipe here


Wear big floppy hats (see more here)

Chase the ice cream truck! What? you don't do that too? You thought it was only for kids under 12? No!!!! Chasing Ice Cream trucks is for kids from 1-102.  Read about my Chicken and Waffle Ice Cream from the ice cream truck here



Wear gorgeous colors on your nails

smile! It's summertime!

  1. You hit the nail on the head for all of the great things about summer. The only thing I have to add is that I love running through the sprinkler with my son. Relaxing at/in a pool or getting wet on a hot day is so much fun.

    Great pictures! I love your yellow heels!! I want a pair! =D

  6. I just love being outdoors any chance I can. I enjoy picnics the most. There are so many simple things we can do during the summer that won't break the bank.

    Love your photos. They really are refreshing as Jeimy said.

  10. Cute pictures! You are definitely right, I do not need a reason to wear bold colors in winter months either. In DC it always feels like a walking funeral during the colder months. I love to wear something bold to throw people off :)

  11. I like the closeup of your stacked bracelets, with your gorgeous smile in the background. Summer is the best time to be outdoors and I'm glad you're seizing the day! A bit part of my summer revolves around sports (so I'm not usually looking blog-worthy haha) - beach volleyball, running, rollerblading, biking...I love it!! Now that the Olympics have started I'm torn between watching to watch incredible feats of athleticism and cheer on my country, and be outdoors enjoying our short summer season.

  17. Another great post from you. I just love these snapshots! Another thing I like about summer is going for walks at night...when the sun goes down in the summer it is still pretty warm with a fresh breeze. Oh and vacations and family reunions...lol.
