So far this has been such a mellow summer. None of those so-hot-I-can't-think days of sweaty necks and unbearable sunshine when you just want to crawl into an icebox and take a siesta. Just lots of mild, cloudy days and almost cool nights. We've barely even run our AC! But today the mugginess set in and the air was heavy with humidity. We stopped to take a couple of photos on our walk back from buying fruits and veggies at the Farmers Market and the sky started spitting a little afternoon shower. Even as I write this I can still hear the drops pinging on our tin roof. It's making me a bit drowsy so I better get to work on that pile of dresses that needs to be mended for this week's shop update.
P.S. We're heading out to see The Half Blood Prince tonight. I'm such a Harry Potter nerd. Anyone seen it already? Did you like it?
sucha sweet and simple look, I may go see Transformers 2 while everone else is at Harry Potter. :-)

ReplyDeleteyea I loved the new HP, I saw it at midnight so I kind of need to view it again in normal time haha but from what I did comprehend in the early hours of the morning, it was quite good

ReplyDeletelove your camisole! i want it!
ReplyDeleteIf you call yourself a Harry Potter nerd, I'm right with you. I still haven't seen the movie yet and it's killing me! Regardless, your look is wonderful. You're such a pretty girl. xo
ReplyDeletejust saw it! I personally loved it, but its so sad that tehre are only two more left
ReplyDeletei'm dreaming of summers like that...here in socal it's not the same. i'm dying to hang around in a cotton cami in a garden as the afternoon thundershowers gather. mmmmm.
ReplyDeleteI saw it yesterday, and it was actually very good! The effects and sets are way better than the previous ones, and of course the plot is a little different (but that was to be expected). But the stand out was definitely the acting. Tom Felton brought it, and the other kids were much improved.
ReplyDeleteNice!Love ur braids hair alot :D
ReplyDeleteand those shoes look amazing!
Love ur style!!
ohhhh hot and humid is so good! you are dressed so perfectly for it! that tank top is amazzzing!
