Lazy Days

There’s something so wonderfully casual about summer that just doesn’t apply to the other seasons.  Yesterday I spent the day by the Viceroy pool with co-workers and though I anticipated middle school-esque awkwardness, it turned out to be quite the opposite.  A slightly overcast morning morphed into a beautiful afternoon and set the stage for a relaxing weekend.

39 Steph H. { 07.24.09 at 11:34 am }

Love the Viceroy! Except I went there for my bday back in April and there was a skeezy manager there - and while he did hook us up with drinks - kept emailing me with inappropriate advances. Luckil he’s out of there! The Viceroy is still wonderful though.

40 andhari { 07.24.09 at 11:46 am }

Peach bellinis would pretty much make the weekend for me!

48 Her name was Lola { 07.24.09 at 10:59 pm }

I’d recognize that fabulous wall of plates anywhere! Oh, we stayed there in May. It was such fun, like stepping back in time.

Next time you’re in the neighborhood, might I recommend the Orange Blueberry Pancakes at Cora’s Coffee Shoppe across the street on Ocean. Genius.

Cheers.

P.S. Love the blog.

[…] going on in the fashion world for months now, but a few factors are beginning to wear me down: 1) Cupcakes & Cashmere makes neon nail polish look irresistible, 2) Target has an entire collection of neon rubber […]

61 Lyndsy { 07.28.09 at 2:20 pm }

Looks like the perfect way to spend a day. Love your shoes and toe nail polish. The viceroy is a fantastic place to spend the day.
