One of my favorite things about springtime is being able to eat outside. Dining alfresco makes me feel like I’m at a charming cafe in Paris. I feel so glamorous yet relaxed and comfortable at the same time. No joke, I eat almost every meal outside on my balcony when it’s warm out. It’s such a beautiful little break in the day.
So yesterday, Johnny and I walked around downtown Roswell. It’s a quaint little area about 15-20 minutes away from our Atlanta home. There are cute shops and tons of little restaurants, all with outdoor seating. We decided on this Italian place, Tutto, and enjoyed the outdoor dining area all to ourselves. I resisted my urge to order a glass of sparkling rosé since I still had so much work to do later on.

I wore this button down dress and some comfortable flats since I knew we’d be walking around. I brought my baby Chanel and added a pink lip for a little spring pastel accent. It was so nice to take a break and walk around outside. Usually I’m in front of the computer all day so I really appreciated being able to get out. I’m hoping I get to do it a lot more often now that we’re hitting the 70s!
Do you enjoy eating al fresco?

i live 5 minutes from the square. It’s one of my favorite places to wander around.

Oh nice! If I lived 5 minutes from there I’d probably take all my outfit photos there. It’s such a cute area!

Love the baby Chanel!! Yes, getting out is very refreshing… sometimes we have to force ourselves to do it!

Thank you! And so true! I have to make it a point to get outside today. Even if it is just to have a quick bite 🙂

Dining al fresco is the absolute best part of warm weather! It’s so nice to be able to be outside in the fresh air and I agree, it always makes me think about being in a little European cafe!

Yes I love dining al fresco! I always try to sit out on the patio or in the courtyard of a restaurant when it’s nice out!
And very cute outfit btw! Perfect for going out to lunch!

Thank you!! And I’m the same way. I would rather wait to sit outside than sit indoors!
