Folk Festival

This is what I wore to our big horseback riding and wine tasting trip on Sunday!

The inspiration was from the H&M Catalog:

Funny how I purchased two kimonos including the one I am wearing here 2 years ago and now they are totally in fashion and popping up all over….








Wore booties for horseback riding and switched to wooden platforms afterwards…

SUNDAY:
Had an amazing trip with friends on Sunday. Started ridiculously early and my wonderful husband volunteered to be the designated driver and picked up our 3 other couple friends from their houses and we headed to Temecula for our 9 AM horseback riding….
If you can believe it 4 of our friends (including my husband) had never been on a horse before! Me, the girl from Turkey that lead a city life had been on it 3 other times, always on some adventure tour in a foreign country. So I was less nervous and smart enough to ask for a well behaved horse as I had my moments with horses that loved to lead and ran ahead of guides.
The ride was nice and peaceful. And even though it sucked to get up so early we were happy we were doing the early ride before the weather got super hot and dusty.
Unfortunately though the ride was not as pleasant as it was for us for one of our friends. His saddle was not buckled in correctly and he slid off of his horse. We were too ahead to see it but heard about it. He was a trooper and got back on it but we could see that horse was at war with herself during the whole ride trying to turn and bite him and whipping her head and tail constantly. We all kept our horses at a distance to avoid him spooking ours.

After the ride and after we cleaned up our friends wounds we headed to our scheduled champagne brunch at a winery nearby. We took our time and enjoyed the food and company for quite a while.

That was followed by two tastings and time just flew by.

The trip ended with a very classy trip to 'Del Taco' before heading back to San Diego back to our kids and family responsibilities.

What a great escape….

Sandstorm

 Today's outfit was inspired by this look from the H&M Catalog, which I thought was quite basic and boring but it came out quite cute actually...

I think my cross graphic tee and longer cardi and the ikat print leggings look even cooler…










I 'could have' kept the heels on but I just knew it would be too much and good thing cause I ended up going costco shopping. So I wore my super cool and chic flats instead. Except these flats have the feel of heels and look just as cool I think….

TODAY:
Went to my Dr. appointment while my mom kept my daughter. Then really quickly fit in a costco shopping. We have snack duty for baseball this Saturday so it was good to get that shopping done.
Had lunch at mom's and picked up my daughter and came home to unload the groceries and tidy up the house. Then it was picking up son and taking them both to the Dr to get their continuous cough and runny nose checked. That took forever. Add picking up prescriptions to that and I was exhausted by the time we got home and that is with skipping swimming!
My sister and brother in law came over and we cooked dinner together by pooling our ingredients and had a great dinner.
