Happy Friday everyone! I don't know about you but I am so happy the weekend is finally here. An agenda that involves a good balance of lazy mornings (much needed) and busy fun filled evenings with lots of good food and good company is what I'm looking forward to. Tonight I'll be at my first baseball game of this summer cheering for the Nationals!! Who am I kidding? I know nothing about baseball and am only going for the beer, the awesome weather we're having today, and supposedly "really good seats!!" It's Friday. Whatever;)

Cheers to the last couple of weekends of summer. Enjoy. Xo.

There's nothing like the good ol' white top/denim combo when you just want to keep it casual yet effortlessly classic--this combination never fails. I recently purchased this light summer knit from J.Crew and love the low key, relaxed look to it which is perfect to wear on cool summer nights or use as a layering piece. J.Crew calls it the "beach sweater" which pretty much epitomizes the vibe of the top.

Hope you're having a great week. Xo.

Weekend Snapshots

This weekend I….

1. Bought a pair of shoes from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. I've been wanting to add another pair of leopard shoes and based off the several good reviews and the fact there is a bit of platform in the front which makes shoes more comfortable, made this an easy purchase. 

2. Met up with an old friend for dinner at La Limena (Peruvian/Latin American) in Rockville, MD. We haven't seen each other in about a year so it was a great time of catching up on each other's lives. If you're ever in that area, I highly recommend this cozy restaurant which boasts delicious, authentic Latin American dishes. 

3. Had a quiet morning to myself and when that happens, I will take the time to use my Chemex. I absolutely love this device to make my coffee using the pour over method but it's one of those coffee devices that requires patience because you are basically pouring hot water in a steady stream over the coffee grinds for about 5 minutes. It's so worth it though.

4. Baked the most delicious peach, blueberry, and basil crumble. Now that peach season is upon us, I have been eating 2-3 peaches a day. I'm pretty sure it's sort of an addiction.

5. Bought this Prada clutch I've been eyeing. I love the gorgeous blue hues on it with the saffiano leather. 

How was your weekend?
