Today it is 80 degrees and SUNNY! Sun is my favorite weather and I could not be happier right now. A few friends and I went to a late breakfast at an Italian restaurant (a few photos to come) and it was so great. Florentine eggs benedict, iced mochas, and good conversation. The restaurant we went to had garage doors that open up. The sunshine poured in on this nice day. What a great start to a Sunday/SUNday. Get it? Bad joke? Haha?

I decided to wear as summery of an outfit I could pull together in five minutes. I chose this lacy hi-low shirt from Free People. The back of the tank has cool wooden beads sewn onto it. Simple white denim shorts and gold accessories finished off the outfit. I wore a black bandeau because the tank is a little baggy. Now I'm going head out and spend the rest of the day outside!

Here's the back of the shirt - you can kind of see the wooden beaded detail! This photo was taken on Elba Island in Italy...ahh the days. :)

Nostalgia at its Finest

This Thursday night I went over to a friend's house and we had pesto lasagna, wine, and tiramasu Italy style. I got together with my roommates in Italy (Nazionale room 6 forevaaaa) and it was great. So nice to catch up. I am so nostalgic about Italy it is crazy. I miss it so much. It was such a great experience and I will never forget it. I want to go back there one day, and it will be amazing, but will never be that same fantastic experience I had over the summer...and maybe one day I'll share the amazing pesto lasagna recipe, but for now it remains a GIF secret. :)

Tomorrow I'm going on a retreat with the dance team! We are going to one of the girls' cabins and will have no cell service or wifi for the weekend. So if I don't post before I leave, I'll post when I get back! It'll be nice to relax and be away from technology for a few days. At the same time, I haven't been without my BlackBerry in a while...so I guess we'll see. Haha.
