Kissing Summer Goodbye

09/27/19 | Fashion Friday, Jack Rogers, Marc Jacobs

Kiss Lips Dress Beach Outfit

Well first, Happy Happy birthday to me! I was transferring photos to my external hard drive (after receiving the dire warning that my MacBook is close to out of space – 50,000 high def photos will do that for you) and I stumbled across these fun and flirty photos shot last Spring. Why on Earth did this cute kiss lips dress never make it to Fashion Friday?  I have no idea.  I think they are the perfect personification of the season and wanted to share them before it got too impossibly late (if it has not already). 

Hopefully by the time this publishes (11am UK, 6am NYC) I will have had at least two cups of coffee and be having a great day at work as I ease into birthday weekend.  I am going on a surprise trip and am quite excited though packing is a real challenge when you do not know where you are going or what you will be doing – at least we are driving though so that limits the geographic scope and means I can overpack :).     I will be sure to report back next week with where the mystery destination is but until then, enjoy this end of Summer look by the pool!

    Happy Belated Birthday. This awesome dress/outfit should have made Friday a long time ago. With that you totally rock this dress. I love it. This would be an awesome date night/summer dress. Speaking of Summer last weekend NYC was 80 degrees and I took one last trip to the beach. This weekend Winter finally arrives.

    It is a really cute dress. I would wear it a lot and great for traveling with as it looks like it wouldn’t take up too much space.

    Adorable and Happy Birthday!
