easy summer evenings

Perfect evenings seem to happen all the more frequently when summer comes around, don’t they?

This bag has been with me all over town these past few weeks! What I initially thought would be just my designated beach bag has somehow morphed into my go-to when I need to pack, well, anything. I’m talking lake house trips, picnics, and blog photo shoots. And hey, this girl isn’t complaining. ;) It’s no secret I’m obsessed – you may have already seen it make an appearance in this video I posted recently!

But what about you? How do you best enjoy summer evenings? Long walks outside, dinner with friends, out on the town? Whatever it may be, I’m wishing you gorgeous weather to enjoy it in tonight!

Love from Texas,

Kate
