For my 27th birthday post this year, I wanted to write out 27 things I love about this upcoming season. My thought behind this was that writing this list would set a positive intention and help me express gratitude for the summer to come. So why do I love summer? Let me count the ways…
- Spending the day half submerged in a pool with a can of spiked seltzer in hand.
- East Coast beaches (Nantucket, Montauk, Martha’s Vineyard, the Hamptons Maine, etc).
- The Gold Coast of Long Island in full Gatsby aesthetic prime.
- White jeans.
- Longer nights means being able to run/walk outside after work.
- Barbecues on Fourth of July weekend (or anytime really).
- I’m a better person when I’m tan.
- Rosé.
- An excuse to get pedicures more often.
- Outdoor concerts.
- Vacationing in the South of France.
- Fresh lobster, crab, and shrimp (I have the opposite of a shellfish allergy).
- Giant, obnoxious pool floats.
- Festivals with food trucks.
- Kids are out of school and running wild.
- Ice cream an acceptable food group.
- Trips to the outdoor Farmer’s Market.
- Wearing shorts with your bikini is an acceptable daytime outfit.
- All of the flowers in bloom – peonies, roses, magnolias, crepe myrtles…
- Hot summer nights.
- Wearing sunglasses instead of makeup.
- Rattan bags.
- Wedding season.
- Summer clothes are SO much easier to pack.
- The smell of sunscreen & tanning oil.
- S’MORES.
- The birthdays of some of my favorite people – including my mom, my sister, and me!
