Summer Starts Here

 What I wore yesterday...

Loosely based on this Pinterest Inspiration:

 The concept I took was mixing a striped top with the floral print bottoms. And the thick necklaces.. I love how the muted grey tones of the stripes and floral print goes together... And it was such a comfy outfit... These Soludos sandals have become so comfortable after use...

THE WEEKEND:
The reason I have no outfits for this weekend is because it was a super low key and relaxing casual weekend for us.
Friday we spent the day at the beach (after I worked for 4.5 hours in the morning) just the kids and I...
I bought a new half tent and a cot and it was very comfortable... What sucked was I forgot my book!

Then Friday NIGHT took the princess to a jr. theater play to see the show adopted from the beloved series of books we read couple years ago... And the 7 PM show was 'wear your PJs night' so here she is in her night gown! :)

Saturday and Sunday the kids had playdates and then my friend brought 'build your own spring roll' ingredients and the kids gobbled them up...

Apple Festival

 This was my outfit on Sunday... Mixing up floral prints in different colors was inspired by this ad:

 This top is so comfy. It has a cotton back and sleeve hems and the front is silky...

 Long black feather earrings blend in the hair in the just the right way...

WEEKEND:
Had a fun weekend. Saturday was spent driving 1.5 hours each way inland to a town called Julian to pick apples with a group of friends. The kids love this activity and eat so many apples along the way.
Sunday we had Turkish school followed by swimming with grandparents and dinner at home.
The diet is going great. Buying all organic is quite expansive but sure tastes sooo much better. Both my hubby felt pretty good about surviving the apple pie activity of Saturday without cheating at all!

I am also going to start doing a weekly feature on Monday linking to Monday Mingle featuring one lovely lady each week styled in wonderful and comfortable Kika Paprika clothes. Look for that post before end of day today!
