~ AH I had so much fun wearing these Island Company cover-ups during a girls weekend out on a friend’s boat! 4 of my favorite women at IHYC spoiled me and made me feel SO loved and special by throwing me a special “going away dinner” (details on all of that soon…check back this week!)! It was so magical…the most amazing dinner I’ve ever had and lots of Veuve Clicquot and Spiked Seltzer!

Immediately after I shot these cover-ups, a friend wanted to try one on! I’ve been getting SO MANY compliments on them. Do I look happy in them?! Because they definitely make me feel happier. Something about Island Company’s motto…oh, you know…”Quit your job, buy a ticket, get a tan, fall in love, never return”…has been really on point with my life plan lately. Well, at least the first 3 are already checked off 🙂 I can’t make any promises on the last 2.

I’m also loving this monogrammed hat from United Monograms! I LOVE a good floppy hat and the navy monogram is so subtle and perfect on it! This will definitely be a “forever hat” in my wardrobe and I’m so excited about it!

Do you have any fun summer stories? I’ve been staying pretty local with my adventures lately…trying to soak in this beautiful place that I live in and trying to spend as much time with the people that I really love! It turns out that my happy place right now is where I live, and I’m doing my best not to take a single day for granted!

Gratefully with love,
