Summer is dwindling down, so the hubs and I thought it would be fitting to have a little date day on Seattle's waterfront. We were originally thinking about making a trip down to Portland, but decided to stay local, which was a great life choice....because we enjoyed one feast of a dinner at The Crab Pot. If you love seafood and have never been....I highly recommend it. I can't think of anything better on a later summer evening than sitting outside next to the water, with seagulls cawing above, all while eating some delish food, caught right off the local waters.

Before dinner we spent some time in our favorite neighborhood, Capitol Hill, browsing thrift shops and listening to tunes in local record stores. Something about that neighborhood makes us feel so youthful and alive. After our rather larger dinner, we walked around on the pier, watched the ferries come and go and saw the sun slowly slip into the Puget Sound.

Perfect day with the most perfect dude :)

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!!!

Do you ever find yourself creating outfits in your mind around an article of clothing that you don't even own yet? You daydream of all the ways you would style said piece until you can no longer take the torture, so you go purchase it.

White jeans have been that item for me lately. Something about white jeans just screams summer to me. Of course, the first thing I chose to pair them with is so not summery and bright.....black. 

Meh, oh well.

At least I threw in some color with the pretty flowers, right?

 Also, I can't get enough of this adorable blouse covered with little white bows. So sweet and it has my favorite collar ever, peter pan! Can you see it in the photos?

Hope you all had the most lovely of weekends! Mine was mostly awesome and partially not.

The awesome: My parents came and stayed with us. Lots of yummy food, shopping and laughter.

The not: My car totally died along the side of the highway as we were going to do said activities. An hour wait alongside the highway, tow truck ride to the shop and hopping into my parents car later, we were back on the road and our fun day resumed.

Now, we wait in horror to see how much the repair will cost. Eeeiiik.
