Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light; and the landscape
Lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Summer is my favorite season. I adore long days that stretch on seemingly without end; even without air conditioning the sensation of sweltering under the bright sun is welcome and warms me to the core. The vivid colors and the heavy air laden with scents is a delight to my senses. I could happily live in state of endless summer and trade all my tights for lightweight shift-dresses, my two pairs of boots for more peep-toe flats, and my lengthening hair for a pixie cut. But before I am prepared for it this season will end and cold weather will descend on me like a plague...

You are so awsome <3
OHHHH! I love the flower in your hair!!!
enjoy the last days of summer...
I love the flower in your hair! And the two prominent colours in your outfit contrasting against each other is such a delight especially when set against the tanned tall grass :DD
Look at that pretty poppy in your hair! I love it! So charming. And I love how coordinated you are with it matching your shoes! Very cute, but not overly matchy-matchy. Even though I LOVE matchy-matchy. XO!
I love the flower and dress combo of red and blue. It's so cute.
perfect outfit, fantastic location for shooting but for me, the flower makes all the difference!! enjoy the summer;)
love it! pure summer.
Like always, amazing photos, amazing outfit. :)

love the flower, and that shade of blue is really perfect on you! your nail polish is really nice as well. and I would love to see you with a pixie cut!
i completely agree. summer is what gets me through the year! it's something i always look forward to.
yes, those roles we place on men really annoy me. if guys only knew, you can still be a "man" and wear awesome clothes!
The flower is so pretty and it matches the rest of your outfit so well :)
We should trade locations, because I adore cold weather, yet live in Florida. Wonderful dress, and I love the bright accessories.
oh, i love your pictures!
I love the color mix of your outfit + landscape :-)
I think that jumping photo is quite possibly the best jumping photo I've ever seen you taken. It's amazing!
I love fantasizing and romanticizing summer much more than I actually love living in the midst of it. I can't stand heat waves and I yearn for chillier days!
Beautiful!
Adorable flower and beautiful photos as always. I think blue is Ur colour...
XoXo
That flower in your hair is brilliant. I love love these pictures.
Summer is my favorite too! I complained a lot when we had that really hot weather, but now that it's cooling down I'm starting to miss it. I love the way your hair is pinned up, and the flower. And of course, your dress is adorable.
That chambray dress with that bright flower is love!
And jumping picture...ahh! Enjoy basking in the summer sun.
Love the flower in your hair.
Beautiful photos!!

idk if I've seen your hair up! It's cute.
I feel the same way about summer.
Less this summer because I have to work so much. :-(
i wish i had fields like this in my area. these are gorgeous
Between the flower in your hair, nice colorful dress, and big field, you look perfectly ready for summer.
the flower on your hair is so cute..amazing pitures...
I agree with all of that, summer is wonderful! As is the combination of the blue of your dress with the orangey red of the shoes and the flower :)
i love the shoe photo. the shadows on your feet are gorgeous!
yes, i can't believe it's already august. it's like july hasn't happened yet. school will take me hostage again.
the pretty red poppy is all the more striking in our water deprived landscape... what a skill you have ! this series is moving... great work.
lovely photos! i love the flower on your hair!!
It's such a beautiful blue dress! I love the flower pin in your hair too! The first picture is gorgeous! xxoxoxoxo
A tutorial on how you did your bun would be lovely. :D
That blue against the grass is so lovely. The touch of red in your hair with the flower is perfect...I'm looking forward to autumn actually to see what ensembles you put together for the chillier months and to see the changing scenery!
I just discovered your blog and I love it , spent way to long on it today!! check out my new blog @ http://relaxedstyles.blogspot.com/
That first photograph is so incredibly wonderful, I love your dress. And how I wish summer had extended past the week of heat we had here in London, it feels like summer was in another life time. Hope you're having a beautiful day dear :)
Is that a Tarina Tarantino head piece?

That poppy is a pretty pop of color!
As always, very lovely pictures and clothes! I love the colors
Your fringe bag is rad! For some reason, I always prefer Fall to Summer.
I love the way you paired the blue dress with the orange flower and shoes. Beautiful photos and scenery.
amazing
I love when the sun warms me to the core, too. There's nothing quite like it :)
Ah, the dress. I've been wearing mine a lot lately.
love the poopy in your hair - and the quote about summer... i loooovee taking walks at sunset around the country where i live - so peaceful and pretty
*in my best fake English accent* I love your poppy.
i love the flower its a very sweet touch, i like summer because i can wear light dresses all day but sometimes its so hot it really bothers me, i think i prefer winter, where i live it's a really short season i don't hace the time to enjoy it,
love the complete outfit!
xoxo!
Love your bag and shoes!!!

Your pictures in this location always remind me of the perfect summer day! I like the flower in your hair and that ring looks very cool :)
Aah! Sadly it's been a terrible summer here, rainy and cold! For all of July I was wearing woolly jumpers. Improvement today with a little sun though. I love that dress, I came close to buying it and wish I had now seeing it again.
love summer, love your dress, love your photos!
adorable as always! i'm actually at that point in summer where i'm waiting for fall so i can sl ip back into my comfortable layers as opposed to trying to find the balance between cute outfits and comfy shorts and t shirts with absolutely no fashion in them
I love the blue and orange combo, you look very sweet.
PS. did you get my email? sorry if it didn't make any sense! I found a hair clip on the floor and wasn't sure if it fell out of your box or came from somewhere else :p
Stunning photos as always!
Well, I think I am going to check out Mad men....it looks amazing, and I am sure I will be gawking at all of the perfect vintage!
Beautiful pictures, again!! I love your bag & dress
i love how you wore the flower in your hair, just adorable!! your pictures are soo dreamy and beautiful
I like how you descbribe the cold as a plague. I certainly don't agree, but I like your wording. Hmm.
I love how you wore your hair with the flower.
I think maybe if I removed one month from winter and added an extra one to summer life would be perfect. I could never banish winter all together though, I love boots too much!
I totally disagree, I cannot wait for it to be winter! Love the dress though, and the flower. Is it a poppy?
sooooo cute! i love your hair + the shape of your dress especially!
Love your dress.
With my imminent return northward, I fear that winter will be upon me even more quickly than ever. One of these days I'll live somewhere where it's warm all year...
Gorgeous poppy hair ornament! Actually, the whole outfit is stunning. I want all of it! Great styling.
Hi! I forgot to tell you that I'm so excited that you're coming to Hawaii this December! Hopefully I'll be here so we can meet and shop together! If you need suggestions on where to stay or eat, let me know and I'll be more than happy to help! xxoxoxo
You summed up the feeling so perfectly, the end of summer is the saddest time of year.
summer is my favorite season, too. i don't think i'd appreciate it as much if i didn't get to experience a change of seasons, though.
your flower is adorable.
xoxo
did i mention how much i love you? the ring is gorgeous - just like you. cant remember if i asked you this before but would you be interested in doing a fashion post with one of my items. Id love to see you photographed in something of mine. your one of my fave bloggers. check out www.littlemonarch.etsy.com and see if you like anything. let me know and i can send it your way in exchange for a feature :-)
i loooove the location you chose for your background.
i also love the color combination in your outfit.
great color combinations, the blue dress with punch of red is very pretty!

ps, i looove jenny lewis and her talented writing :)
I adore your hair!
Now I want summer!
Right now here we have winter, but I like it to, I like both, summer and winter, but reading what you write, I want summer right now!
Like always beautifull landscapes and dresses.
Kisses!
The flower in your hair is so sweet:)
Love that one of you jumping!
Adorable!
R, I really adore your dress..and that bag iss sooooooooo awesome!! i want one but bigger to fit all my stuff which weighs a ton!
your hair looks so lovely . these pictures are gorgeous .
aww man. i hate when it gets to that point where all my friends start saying " summer is over"
:(
making me get a little nervous like every year , inevitable i suppose
I, too, love summer, but as much as I hate summer ending, I couldn't live without winter. However, I've often thought that when I grow old and fragile and much more susceptible to cold/slipping on ice/etc. I'll go live in the southwest a) because I love it there b) because its pretty close to perpetual summer and c) because I'll have lots of other seniors for company. But then I think that part of summer for me is the beach, and I would want to live in a perpetual summer minus the beach.
Loving that gorgeous ring!
the flower in your hair is adorable
these pictures embody my most idealistic version of summer, frolicking around in honey colored grass in a dress the color of the sky and shoes the color of tomatos. I love the matching shoes and flower.

love the poppy, one of my favorite flowers. the first pic reminds me of Wizard of Oz and the painting Christina's World.
Yeah you can always swap with me hehehe
A beautifully summery look. :)

oooh, I have a dress just like that one, from h&m too, except it's patterned. it looks really lovely on you, and I love the flower in the hair, so summery! We haven't had much of a summer here unfortunately, so your description makes me feel both happy and jealous :D xx
Gorgeous photos! Love the flower!!
I love that dress and the flower in your hair is so beautiful :)

Ohhh man, it's too great.

I love your pictures!!! xoxo
Your pictures are lovely, as always..
xx
gah, i always love your photos! they make me want to go romping around in a big open field- wish i was not in NYC where this is impossible!
your blue dress here is so pretty, and i like that it basically matches the color of the sky. the red barette is a great touch too!
~joelle
speechless again at the beauty of everything in your pictures. i'm going to check your archives for what you wore during cold days.
Absolutely enchanting. Love your hair thingie.
Here's what I hate about summer: it comes too late and leaves too soon!
Lovely colour co-ordination- beautiful setting too. Polly x
I think fall is my favorite season, but I'm definitely a fan of the long, lazy days of summer and the vividness of all the colors under the summer sun.
I adore the color of that dress with the bright red of the shoes and the flower. Gorgeous!
Summer is my favorite season, too (though often it dukes it out with autumn). Your pictures so perfectly capture the childlike summertime spirit. And there's that awesome H&M dress again! Emily (from Resplendent Tranquility) calls it "Blue Beauty." Sorry if she's already told you that and I'm being blog-redundant. ;)
The first photo looks like a painting <3
the flower is just too sweet!
awesome photo shoot! summer is my favourite season too, I'd love to remain in summer forever...
