Summer Breeze

What a wonderful weekend! It was the perfect mix of being productive and having fun, which is totally my favorite! On Saturday, Ryan and I went to a fun little cookout turned bourbon tasting. It was such a relaxing and easy day, and that’s what summer is all about! I wore this adorable little blue striped dress for the day and snapped a few pics in the neighborhood before having some beers and grilling out.
I absolutely love the way this blue striped dress fits. It’s such a great silhouette: form-fitting at the top and loose from the waist down. I always identify my style as comfortable and feminine, and this dress is just that! The ruffle at the bottom and bow on the side are so adorable, yet not too cutesy and girly. The print is one of my summer favorites. You can never go wrong with blue and white stripes!
After eating and hanging out for hours, we decided to do a blind bourbon tasting. As I’ve mentioned a few times, I have been getting into bourbon for the past year or so. I definitely know a thing or two, but let me tell you, I can not guess what I’m drinking in a blind taste test! LOL! I got all 4 of them wrong. Oh well, it was fun and surprising to find that the group favorite was actually the cheapest bottle! Later that night, I hung out with my sister for some wonderful family time.
After having a ton of fun–and dranks–on Saturday, I spent Sunday lounging, selling some of my old furniture (new living room update coming soon!), posting on Instagram, and writing this post. The perfect blend of being productive and relaxing, if you ask me! Now it’s time for a movie.
What’s your ideal weekend?

Absolutely LOVE striped! They add such a fun, yet sophisticated vibe to any look and this dress is beyond cute! Love how you styled it with that straw bag – practically the perfect summer look!
