Lavender Lemonade + Chardonnay
Long weekends equate to short and busy weeks. As anticipated the past few day flew by but I managed to capture a few images from throughout the week; refreshing lemonade, a simple dinner, new boots for fall, and one of my favorite summer snacks, figs (it's the Italian girl in me).
This weekend I'm heading out of the city again for a girls getaway with my college roommates in Carmel. I love all of the Saturday/Sunday excursions that come with summer and I am especially trying to make the most of these sacred weekends and my time in San Francisco because I will be moving to New York with my husband in August. He will be finishing up his final year of graduate school at Cornell University and I couldn't be more excited to tag along for a little back to school/east coast fun. Ithaca is no Manhattan, but I'll take what I can get!

I have never eaten a fig! I have no idea what they even taste like! The lemonade, on the other hand, looks amazing! And those boooots - I have been eyeing them too! So gorgeous & perfect for fall! Happy weekend!
That lemonade looks so delicious, especially on a hot and humid day. You better be ready for it moving over here to the East Coast. 90 and humid! ;) We should totally meet up, I visit NYC frequently and Ithaca is only about 2 hours from me in MA! :)

So fun you're moving to NY!! Exciting : )
Cannot believe you're moving to the East Coat! Is it a temporary move until he finishes school? So exciting!
PS: I think I've asked you this already, but do you only use the 50mm 1.8 lens? (or was it the 1.4). You know I always love your photos.
Glad to know I'm not the only one looking at boots in the middle of summer. Love the new J.C.
What exciting news!! You'll be joining us on the east coast. :)
How exciting! I'm sure you will find lots of reasons to make your way to Manhattan :) Your dinner looks so refreshing, I may have to take up this plate of goodies for a meal of my own!

I'm secretly relieved someone else's work week has been as hectic as mine-I could not be more ready for happy hour and Sunday brunch! Enjoy the weekend, and soak up that California!
You'll be the most stylish person in Ithaca! It's "gorges" there and I can't wait to see the new & exciting backgrounds to your outfits & outings.
