This is my third and final look that I scored with my Chippmunk gift card! I know several of the girls opted to spend their gift card on one full look or even just one piece, but I wanted to get the most for my money so I opted to get 3 dresses and a cardigan. This dress was a bit of a reach for me in terms of the pattern and color palette, but I'm in love with it! It was a surprising fabric/feel (very satin-y vs. the cotton I expected) and it was definitely for the best. I was totally won over by the pattern and colors once I put it on. That tiny pop of turquoise at the bottom of the skirt totally sealed the deal. I knew I had to add my rust-colored cardigan. I'm a fan of matchy matchy at times! A nice oversized "carryall" tote was a nice pairing, too. This is the IZOD bag I picked up on clearance a couple of month's back. I brought it with us to the beach this week because it's the perfect beach bag. These colors are more of an Autumn color palette, I know, but it was sort of nice for a grey/gloomy day in mid-Summer.

Today I'm hoping to work on my tan and check out a few of the recommended places in town. I spent some time thumbing through Yelp to find a few establishments that looked interesting enough to pop into. If all else fails we've got an amazing lake just around the bend, and we're hoping to rent some canoes + kayaks! I'm hoping our photos of this place do it justice because it's unreal! So so gorgeous! We packed up instant cameras, film cameras, our digital camera, and even 4 disposables for the trip! Im notoriously bad about not taking photos of trips when I really intend on doing so, but I'm hoping I can rack up the film rolls on this one!

  3. Kaelah this is one of my favourite dresses on you - the colouring of it suits your tan down to a tee! So jealous of your road trip - i've been following it on instagram and it makes the London very boring. I'm hopinh to get to the seaside next week!

  12. The necklace that you're wearing is amazing with the print of this dress. It echoes it perfectly! The colors are definitely more Autumnal but who cares? You look great! Especially with your hair that rusty color too :) Great post and I even love the setting!
