Happy Tuesday, friends, from someone who can barely walk today.  Why, you ask?  Well I was supposed to get this blog post up earlier, but I agreed to go on a 19+ mile bike ride with Eric’s mom, aunt, and cousins.  We rode from Huntington to Sunset Beach and broke up the miles with a favorite breakfast stop at Harbor House Cafe.  I’m really happy that I joined them (God knows this summer body could always use a little more exercise and ocean views), but let’s just say I’m moving a little slowly this afternoon.

And contributing to my slowness?  The scorching heat in this house currently.  I’ve been on the hunt for anything and everything lightweight, airy, and breathable, and this dress is heatwave approved.  (You also can’t go wrong with any of these.)  Plus, I’m always down for a good ole’ summer stripe.  It’s a throw-on-and-go look with a roundie bag and the braided heels that I in no way possible could walk in since starting my professional bike-riding career this morning.

But who needs your favorite heels when you’ve got a belly full of Harbor House breakfast?  Priorities, ya know?

xoxo
