Color hits different in the Summer. I have never been a huge fan of neon colors but with bronzed skin and sunshine the colors just look so magnificent.
The combo of orange and green is one of the prettiest I have seen in a while – maybe an equivalent to pink and turquoise. We went out for a sports festival on this day so I kept it pretty simple with flats but you could also dress it up with heels and an up-do.
I have been loving the Land´s End canvas handbags for years but just recently had a look at their fashion pieces. I personally think they do have some great pieces for hiking in the Fall and for everything coastal grandma related but their regular everyday Summer clothes are also super cute.
It definitely is worth to check it out plus there is always some sort of sale going on which makes you save big bucks.
The dress itself reminds me so much of a vacation on Hawaii. The turquoise is such a vibrant and pretty ocean color and the hibiskus blossoms are the eptiome of a tropical setting.
There are tons of other prints available on the site. This makes a great vacation dress, beach cover-up or a just a nice Summer dress. It has pockets too. I got a size 40 and there is still room.
After my Soup Sunday Series back in the Fall I have now started a new one cause I had so much fun. It is called Summer Salad Sunday and I will hopefully be able to keep it going until September.
I love any kind of salads. They are the most versatile side dishes you could wish for cause a salad isn´t just lettuce and oil and vinegar. You can make a salad out of a million things and many salads won´t be a healthy treat in the end.
So let´s start and recap the last three of salads I have posted on Instagram including the making of:
For our first round of Summer Salad Sunday I am sharing the Italian Pasta Salad. My mom has been making this one for over ten years and it is always a favorite with lots of ingredients Italy has to offer.
Italian Pasta Salad:
-macaroni (love these for convenience but every other small noodle does the trick) – black olives – sun dried tomatoes (almost forgot to add 😬) – red pesto – little mozzarella balls – pickled artichokes
Cook the macaroni until they are al dente. Meanwhile you can prepare all the other ingredients (wash, chop,…) When your noodles are cooled off you can mix all of the ingredients together and stir, stir, stir That’s it. Mangiare !!!
As far as meassuring goes I mostly eyeball it cause there isn’t a thing you can do wrong. If you love one ingredient more than the other just add a little more 😋
If stored in the fridge you can eat it for 3 days so this would also be a great option for Summer meal prep.
This one is far away from a low calorie, lots of vegetables salad but it is easy to make, keeps you full and is great for meal prep too.
Ingredients:
– quinoa – chickpeas – feta cheese – avocado
I cook the quinoa for about 20 minutes and let it cool off after but you can also look at the packaging for proper handling. Meanwhile I cut and rinse all the other ingredients. When the quinoa is cooled of I add some olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. Like always I do not have proper quantities to share. Add as much or less as you like and it tastes right for you.
I keep mine in the fridge and have a delicious lunch for about 4 days.
How in the world is it already Monday ? Since we start SUP the weekends pass twice as fast.
Anyways I have worn this pair of sage wide leg pants a few weeks back and it is the perfect Summer pant. Very lighweight and comfortable. I have gotten another color pretty quick and now it is one of my favorite pants for quick styles.
I have styled it with a flower trimmed white shirt for this look but you could also wear it with a cool graphic shirt and platform sneakers.
