I LOVE those shorts and that beach isn't too bad either!
Great outfit! I love those bright colours.
Looks great. Fall just hit Denmark, so no shorts here for the next 7 months 🙁
Your accountings make me feel like a big spender! 😉
the whole ensemble looks great and I am lusting after that beach especially as its got so cold here in the UK
Carolyn, I love your blog. You always make it look so effortless!
And your pictures at the beach make us long for summer just as we're moving into the winter months here in the northern hemisphere.
Your accounts make me think that sewing your own is worth the effort for savings as well as for the fun of creativity! And like some of the other commenters, seeing your photos brightens my day. It is well and truly autumn here in the UK – daytime temps of 13 degrees C last Saturday!
These colors are so pretty together. Perfect for a walk on the beach!
You have been busy. It looks as though you had a maximum gain for minimum pain kind of month
