I've done my fair share of adventuring this summer, which makes me happy. My mom and I have wanted to go to the
Finger Lakes Lavender Festival at Lockwood Lavender Farm for a few years now and we finally made it out this year! It was actually a bit smaller than I was expecting, but it was a beautiful day and we had a lot of fun. I
really hate taking photos in public, but I managed to get past my self-consciousness for a few shots.
It was too hot, sunny, and crowded to spend much time on getting the perfect photo, but I wanted to at least capture the perfect dress! This purple gingham number from Hearts and Found couldn't have been better for the occasion (and the heat). It's definitely a scene-stealer, for sure! I'd been wanting to try this Dolly style for a while, and even though I was apprehensive it wouldn't work on me due to my bust, I was very pleasantly surprised at the result. I think the structure of the dress makes it a bit short-waisted on my frame, but it's really comfy and low maintenance.

After we had our fill of the festival, we wanted to walk around Skaneateles. Unfortunately, everyone else had the same idea. We couldn't even find a place to park! We eventually had to give up and decided to stop over at
Mirbeau for a little snack. I'd love to stay there sometime! The garden is so beautiful there. All in all, it was a really nice way to spend the day with my mom and be surrounded by nature.
Have a great start to your week!
I was at a hot air balloon festival this past weekend and had the exact same experience - SO hot and SO many people! We did our best with photos (you know I saved my UV hot air balloon dress for this!) but yeah, it was just craziness! Love filling my summer with adventures - glad you have had some good ones!!!
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing!
ReplyDeleteI love this dress on you! I just recently blogged the same colour and fabric from Hearts and Found but in a different style dress! Here's the link: https://missmillacherry.blogspot.com.au/2017/08/purple-gingham.html
