Gloucester harbor summer 2009Reading Elle Decor from June 2010 put me in summer mode! Sunshine and birdsong were the background for a delightful afternoon, the magazines a wonderful stimulus for my senses!
Connecticut cool...
Easy living in Santa Monica
A simple plan in the Hampton's...
Making a splash on Shelter Island...

Victoria, I think your description "incredible lightness of summer" says it all! I just did a post on my visit to a charming coastal town here in MA. Everything about that area speaks of summer. It is hard to put it in to words. It is just a feeling you get when the weather is warm and the salty breeze is coming off the water. It "is" the best expression of what summer truly is. I am not making any sense. I just love summers here!
ReplyDeleteI am nuts over these pictures! I have to pick that mag up!
Nothing better!
ReplyDeleteYes, you described summer so nicely! I would love to spend a few days by the beach and hear the water at night.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm a spring and summer girl, though autumn is equally lovely, too. I like the picture with the boat in the ceiling best. Reminds one of a summer by sea in Italy or Sylt;-)
ReplyDeleteSo many beautiful fabrics! xx
ReplyDeleteLovely. I went to the beach yesterday, It is summer here, already!
