Outfit:
Lou and Grey dress (Shalom Shuk, Burlington VT), $3.00, Marimekko bag (gifted)
Lou and Grey’s tagline is “Clothing for a Comfortably Confident Life”. This dress is the definition of comfort, while still being versatile enough to wear to work or play! I matched it with a fun, printed, signature Marimekko bag that my mom got for me in Finland to add some color and pizzaz.
Have you heard of athleisure? It’s the fashion trend that makes it acceptable and stylish to wear leggings and fresh sneaks anywhere and everywhere. Sporty spice knew what was up! Who needs uncomfortable heels, dresses that ride up, or stiff jeans when you can show up to an event in complete stretchy heaven? Well, I still like to dress up (and spend less), but it’s cool that athleticism is “in” outside of the gym! Way to go fashionistas of the world!
Occasion: peach picking!
Who knew peach picking existed in Vermont? I certainly didn’t! I went to Shelburne Orchards to experience the wonders of it all for my first time! My friend said to me, “you haven’t truly experienced summer if you haven’t been peach picking”. He was right! There is nothing better than plucking a picture perfect peach right off the tree! It was not necessarily cheap, but those peaches were so delicious, it was worth every penny! Not to mention the cider donuts fresh out of the oven! There is still time to get your peach picking on before they are completely replaced by apples! Check it out!
