How To Cure Summer Boredom

Here is a list of fun things that I do with my friends during summer so that you can try and make the most out of your Summer as well!

1. "ENO-ING"

After a busy week or if you just want to relax, my friends and I love taking our enos to the nearby lakes or the creek! It's even more fun if you hang them over the water, like we do, so we can swim and do fun things like that too. Just make sure that it's a swim-friendly body of water which is why we only hang them over the creek and not the lakes!

2. SWIM

Whether it's at a friend's house or at a neighborhood/country club pool, swimming with friends is always fun, and you could even make it a fun dinner with hamburgers and things like that as well!

3. FUN DAY AT THE LAKE

If any of your friends have a camp, it is always so much fun to take a boat and go tubing and water skiing at the lakes! You can even turn it into a weekend getaway!

4. GO ON A PICNIC

It's so much fun to go on a picnic with friends! All you need is a picnic blanket, picnic basket, food, and friends! You can play music and make a day out of it!

5. SHOPPING DAY

Find a good mall or shopping center near you and have a blast shopping with your friends! The more opinions the merrier ;)

6. GO GET COFFEE

This could just be for like 30 minutes or an hour, but getting coffee with friends is always easy and fun!

7. MOVIE AND DINNER

Go to a movie and dinner with friends either out or even at someone's house! This is normally my friends and I go-to activity!

Tropical Dress Perfect for Summer

I would, first, like to apologize on behalf of my dogs for photobombing the majority of my pictures :)

In New Orleans, we went shopping in Canal Place, so we obviously had to stop by J.Crew (refer to my Weekend in NOLA post). In J.Crew, I found the cutest dress and wedges, and I knew that I had to get them when I found out that the entire store was on sale!! The dress is the perfect shape, and I love the fun pattern and white outlines. It kind of reminds me of a Lilly dress, and it is perfect for summer!! Also, can we just admire that adorable and fun cutout in the back? It really adds a lot to the dress and makes it more unique! I know that it will be perfect to wear to a party that I have in the French Quarter later on this summer!

Summer Wish List

I hope that everyone's summer is going well! I know that mine has been fabulous so far, but it is just flying by in my opinion! So, I thought that now would be as good a time as ever to post my summer wish list. This list was not hard at all to make because I love to dress for summer! On that subject, be on look out for many blog posts about summer outfits because I have a lot planned! Also, I am now done taking trips for the summer, so I am going to be able to blog more and more! This means that I will have a new blog post every Tuesday and/or Friday! Yay!!

Weekend in NOLA

I spent the weekend in NOLA with my sisters, and we had a blast and a half! I am so glad that we were able to take a trip with just the three of us! To start off the trip, we went to District Donuts on Magazine Street on Saturday morning which was crazy busy, but it was so worth the wait. Get the croque monsieur on a cronut, and you won't regret it!

We then headed to Canal Place to see Jurassic World, and might I add... It was amazing! I love Jurassic Park, so of course I loved Jurassic World! I would definitely recommend that you go and see it. After the movie, we met up with a friend, Anna, and we all stayed at Canal Place to shop at J.Crew, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Lulu Lemon!

By the time we were done shopping, it was already 3 pm, so we ate a late lunch/early dinner at Cowbell on Oak Street. They have the absolute best mac and cheese and burgers! As a tip that our waitress gave us, dip your french fries into the left over cheese from your mac and cheese! You then have delicious cheese fries!

To end the day, I (finally) visited The Grove Street Press which Anna owns with her cousin, Kate. They sell letter-pressed cards and prints, and they press each and every card and print by hand. I am so honored to have been able to get an up-close and personal tour of the factory. To see more of what they do, follow them on Instagram (@thegrovestreetpress)!
