A Country BBQ

One thing I really miss when having an apartment is grilling out. So I love when friends invite me over for a bbq!


The weather was really gorgeous but a bit sunny so it was the perfect excuse to pull out this great sun hat.


These friends are huge animal lovers and have all sorts of creatures including chickens!


I love birds and these guys are pretty cute! The babies are even cuter. :D


I love these silver confetti earrings! They go with pretty much everything but they are quite huge.


This dress is Simplicity 2801 that I made back in May.


I love that it pretty much speaks for itself and doesn't need a whole lot to make an outfit.


I wish I had thought to take a shot of the steaks we had. They were huge! Even the guys ended up splitting them.


Do you love summer bbqs?

  2. Now, I need to go in search of Simplicity 2801! I'm also saving your post on the bra situation. Need to get to that, vintage bras are muy uncomfortable!

  4. Fantastic outfit! Love your wide brimmed straw hat - it suits the country setting here so sweetly well (while at the same time, looking super chic and like it could have just come off of Madison Avenue 60 years ago).

  5. Yay barbeques! I need to remember to ask for some of the bbq print fabric for my birthday! I really love this dress on you. You actually look just like my grandmother, back in the 1950s. I'll have to find a photo of her to show you.
