Shelter Cove

 Outfit Details: Dress: Vintage - Antiqued // Scarf & Shoes: Thrifted







Hello Darlings, 

Well it's just about mid-week and my vacation is in full force.  I've been doing not much more than soaking up sunshine and gulping up moments by the water.  Who here could happily live on vacation all year long? - I swear I most certainly feel like I could at times,  but I suppose it might get a bit monotonous after awhile.  Anyhow, after a oyster po boy and crawfish bisque dinner in the evening - it was so lovely to take a wee stroll through the charming little Shelter Cove with my mom - which is a sweet handful of shops and restaurants and such on the water.  I'm kind of a sucker for Dawson's Creek-esque looking seaside towns like that.    Enough said:)

How about your week?  Any vacations in the near future?  Do share.


Love Bunches,

  8. Seriously these pictures look like they came from the time period of the dress! They are perfect!!! I love it!

    We're going to go visit my friends in South Jersey and in Maine. They are our favorite vacations that we take, though I've never really traveled much elsewhere anyway.

  19. Oh gosh, this dress is slightly reminiscent of Minnie Mouse, which let me tell you, is something I think is quite splendid. Your vacation sounds lovely, and well relaxing! Hope you're enjoying every second of it.

  23. You look gorgeous & this place seems absolutely dreamy. What a perfect dockside dress, I love that its polka dots yet still so nautical, since usually I equate nautical with stripes. I too sometimes wish I could be on vacation permanently, but then again I was only working very part time last year and felt pretty aimless, so you probably just want what you don't have! I'm assuming that's your beautiful mama too, how nice to get to see a little snippet of family! I hope you are having a wonderful day & hope you have more vacay pics coming!
