Siesta

Screen shot 2010-08-13 at 7.15.25 AM Screen shot 2010-08-13 at 7.19.07 AM Friday always feels a bit special, doesn't it? As August begins to slip by and summer comes to a close, there's an almost palpable vibe of relaxation in the air. It's as though collectively we are all trying to savor those last few lazy evenings by the pool. I - for one - have made it a point to catch a few winks on 100 degree (and above) afternoons. There's not much else one can do when the blistering exerts its full force upon the concrete.

And while I'm scrambling to wear all of my summer whites and festive wedges, I definitely look forward to the seasonal shift. Cooler temperatures mean I can wear lace-up platforms and jackets. Fall weather means I can bust out my skinny jeans again and actually consider wearing them without dying from the heat.

I love summer - and this year's has been one of the most memorable... but I welcome fall and the shift in attitude it brings with it.

Enjoy those last few days of summer, everyone! If you're drooling over this lovely piece of furniture above - it's the Zinnia Daybed from Celerie Kemble. Score yours here at Lane Venture.
