♥… hike up the draping skirt of your T-Bags String Halter Long Dress, take the hand of a cute boy, and plunge straight into a cool fountain? Remember darlings, lots of splashing is an absolute necessity!
♥…give into the protests of your unused green thumb and grow a garden full of delicate daisies? In the words of Beverly Nichols, “To be overcome by the fragrance of flowers is a delectable form of defeat.”
♥…step into Proenza Schouler’s Platform High Heel Sandals and spend the afternoon practicing your catwalk? Don’t forget to take a cue from Madonna and…Vogue!
♥…replace each and every meal with fresh strawberries and homemade whipped cream? Face it, my loves; no one can argue against the fact that such a delicacy is just as healthy as it is scrummy!
♥…slip into Nanette Lepore’s Saloon Gal Dress, step into your front yard, and spin around and around, watching the skirt billow out elegantly around you?
Fashionably yours!
Thanks to We ♥ It for the picture.

Love the Nanette Lepore dress- so cute! :)
We grow a garden of zinnias in our yard, and the beauty it attracts is so worth it ... gold finches, green jewel hummingbirds, monarch butterflies, not to mention pretty bouquets for the house!
Fresh strawberries is an absolute MUST in the summer months :) Have a great day and I hope that stomach virus is gone for good!
I'm all about those strawberries...I know what I'm having for lunch!
Why don't I!? Love this lady!
I love my daisies! And strawberries and whipped cream go perfectly with hot summer days!
Love the sandals and dress--I'll take one of each!
I'm using my green fingers these days and have been growing tuilips in my garden.
And life would be perfect if I replaced every meal with strawberries.
:) Bueatiful! Love it so fun! xxx
I'll be making a splash tomorrow! Handsome and I are sneaking into a quary to take a sunrise swim... If you don't hear from me for a few days then we got caught and come bail me out!!!

Love that fountain idea! I'm heading back east next week and it's supposed to be stupid hot so I just might find myself splish-splashing away.

wonderful tips darling!! hope youre having a nice week so far- that photo is so summery and fun.
today i had strawberries for dessert. i love it when the food you eat is free- and from the garden. then its obviously healthy..
picking for 2 hours- well it wasn't that wonderful.. but neccessary.. the berries grow so fast- and mom is gonna make jam for the whole family- so i need to help her pick pick pick ;)
take care
xx ediot
yes, please! Strawberries and whip cream all day is a must sometimes and sounds divine on a day like today - I might have to add a bottle of bubbly though too ;-)
It is ridiculously hot in nyc this week!
Strawberries and cream sound so good right now!
i want to do them all right away!
haha! i am not a good cat walk "walker" so i would definitely need to spend an afternoon practicing!
omg now I am CRAVING strawberries and whipped cream! That sounds absolutley amazing right now!
And it had to be homemade whipped cream. Cool whip is super gross.
I've always wanted to run through a fountain... now if I only knew where one was?! I'm also now seriously craving strawberries and cream :)
I'm loving those proenza schouler platforms. and one of my favorite things to do in the yard is spin! it's so fun to get all dizzy underneath the blue sky on a nice summer day!
:)
xoxo
Yey for why don't you posts!
I love the saloon gal dress!

I love that your say scrummy! So cute! And I just received a package of Sherrie's Berries. Best chocolate dipped strawberries in the world.
I'd love to own a big billowy skirt. Not so much for practical wearing, but for twirling and the like.
I love the bohemian vibe of that platform sandals. And I have always dream of growing my flower garden but I don't have a green thumb when it comes to flowering plants... someday I wish I can... I think I will.
Have a great day Erika! xoxo
why don't I?! Why I think I should!!!! Anything with extra sugar and strawberries is a must for me!
stay classy,
madeleine
I definitely need more strawberries in my life!
I am positively in LOVE with that Nanette Lepore dress! What a pretty, sunny shade and a fun shape.

Love the strawberries idea- I had them in my oatmeal this morning, it was delicious. Also, I have always wanted a garden - love that green thumb idea and the quote!
What a charming list of things...how i would love to dip into a fountain right now, its soo hot in nyc!!
Kisses,
Stephanie
Yes, yes, and yes! I love this weekly post--and that image with those fab glasses is also divine. Hoping your week is going great!

Hehe, thanks for that wonderful inspiration!! I know what I'll be doing today:-)
I adore the T-Bags dress -- who cannot with such a fun print?
I think I'd like to first eat a HUGE bowlful of strawberries and cream -- yummy! -- and then go dancing in the fountain with the cute boy :)
I love that photo. I hope you've had a great week. I certainly have. Thanks for your comment on my Taylor Lautner post. I appreciate it. I got so many wonderful comments on that post. Enjoy the upcoming weekend.
The fountain, the boy + strawberries and whipped cream all make for a wonderful Wednesday in my book!
I don't know why i love this shot.
Why?

If only I could grow daisies. I missed the green thumb, mine is black. I kill every plant. Oh well.
But I'd love to eat strawberries for every meal. Mmmm!
i love it when you do this kind of posts!!!
Running through a fountain with my girlfriend sounds amazing on days like today. it's been ROASTING on the East Coast! Love these suggestions :)
hope all is well, Erika!!
