1. Sitting on the deck: A few years ago, maybe when I was in college, my parents did a huge backyard makeover. They built a large deck and planted tons of gorgeous shrubbery and foliage. Every summer I enjoy sitting out on the deck, either reading, hanging out with friends and family or BBQ-ing. It's a wonderful and restful place. I love when it starts getting warm enough to hang out there.
2. Shorts & sandals: Boise recently got a Nordstrom Rack! For Easter my mom gave my sister and me gift certificates for Nordy's. I decided on Paige Denim boyfriend shorts and MIA wedges. I've been needing to update my summer wardrobe for a while. In California my wardrobe was made up of tank tops, shorts and sandals, but many of those things have passed on since then. I felt like I made a smart decision with this purchase and I've already gotten plenty of use out of both the shorts and the wedges.
3. Drive-in movies: I haven't been to a drive-in movie in a long time, but it's definitely a favorite summertime activity. There are four drive-in's fairly close to where I live. I'd love to be able to go a few times this summer. It'd be a great outing for when out-of-town friends visit!
4. Snake River Stampede Rodeo: I've been to many different rodeos since I was little. When I was growing up my dad would sometimes be Smoky Bear at various rodeos. Yeah, be jealous. When I was little, my sister, cousin and I would all cheer for the animals instead of the cowboys, haha! Anyway, I went to the Snake River Stampede two summers ago when two of my Seattle friends came to visit. It was so much fun! We weren't able to go last year, so I'm hoping it will work this year. It's another one of those fun summertime activities!
5. Bikinis: Summertime is always a fun excuse to get a new bikini. When I lived in California there was always a good excuse to get a new one and I have a lot from when I was there; I probably never need to buy another one again. I love going to the beach or water parks during the summer. It's a fun way to cool off in the summer heat. Target always has lots of great bikinis for reasonable prices. Here's a cute one from Victoria's Secret.

Wardrobe Wednesday: Summer Dresses
I love maxi dresses for summer! I just wish I could find some long enough for me. I think this is the only downside of being 5'10" tall. The perfect maxi dress for me would cover my ankles and probably be an empire waist. My hips are a little wider and a higher waist would emphasize the smallest part of me and draw attention away from my hips. Here are a few of my picks for summer dresses via Polyvore.

Wardrobe Wednesday: Roadtrip Rules
I'm been trying to plan outfits in my head for the roadtrip at the end of the month. I need to be very strategic and conscious of my outfit choices and my packing. I love the versatility of these shirts, shorts and sandals. They're all easy to mix and match. I have a feeling I'm going to have to get very creative with my outfits. In the next week or so I'm going to pull a bunch of stuff and take photos to start the planning process. You may think I'm crazy but the stylist in me is very excited!

Wardrobe Wednesday: Bon Jour Spring
It's officially Spring! I just wish the weather would get the memo. I can't wait for shorts and sandals! I'm on Spring Break and it just feels wrong to still be wearing sweaters and boots. I know I said last week I'd hopefully have an outfit picture for my Wardrobe Wednesday today, but life just seems so busy even with my Spring Break this week. I hope you enjoy this fun Spring outfit I created on Polyvore! The t-shirt reminds me of one time when Heather, Jenny and I were at Disneyland and the girls got mustaches painted on their faces. It was hilarious!
