Summer Essentials - Connecticut in Style

There is one clump of snow remaining on our grass, it is what’s left of a snowman that my husband built for our daughter. Every morning we look at it from the kitchen window getting smaller and smaller and by the end of the day today it will be gone. It has been such a cold and snowy winter, our neighbors in Boston received a staggering 110.3″ of snow making it the snowiest winter on record. I long for warmer days. I know they are coming and I am planning for it. I am looking forward to bathing suits and flip flops, long days at the beach and building sand castles with my kiddos, bronze skin and sun-kissed highlights, white clothes and neon bead bracelets, icy cold beer and BBQ, ginger lemonade and strawberry shortcake, bare feet badminton in our backyard and blowing bubbles, and candlelight and lighting bugs.

I LOVE Clinique skin products. This is my go-to bronzer in the summer. It gives you instant colour, but it is also a self-tanner so when you wake up the next morning you still have that glow.

V-Neck Chiffon Dress it is $8.33 I’m not kidding (and free shipping) – there is a timer on the website, so if you are interested you might want to act fast.
