hello summer!



happy summer! it's officially summertime. this season always feels like the shortest of the year, especially when you live in upstate ny. there's only so many sunny days to enjoy and i'd like to take full advantage of all of them this summer. so i thought i'd come up with a list of ten things that i’d like to accomplish before labor day..
1. attend an outdoor concert
2. sneak into a fancy hotel pool
3. create a summer 2010 playlist for my ipod
4. take walks after dinner at least twice a week
5. set friday night dinner dates and sunday brunch dates
6. go swimming in a waterfall
7. drive to the beach as often as possible
8. master my own signature summer cocktail
9. attend a food or music festival
10. donate the summer clothes that I don’t end up wearing

 what does your summer list look like?

keep seeing chan luu bracelets everywhere lately.. on my blogs, on celebrities, in my magazines.. i bought one of these bracelets in white last summer at intermix in vegas. i wore it for about 3 months without taking it off.. lets just say it's not white anymore. think it may be time for a new one and now there's so many colors to choose from!
