Savannah

Summer is not over until we go to the coast. I am talking about the oldest city of Savannah in the state of Georgia. We been here so many times but the charm of the city never fails to fascinate me. The architectural designs of the older buildings, churches & turn of the century houses evokes lots of history and beauty.

 One day is not enough to visit and to do things around town. There are so many historical places to see and ghostly cemeteries to go to as a tour by night. If that is not your cup of tea, a river cruise would be just as fine. We did all of those touristy stuff so this visit was more of dining experience, lots of picture taking and buy lots of pralines in one of the river streets candy stores. So old fashion candy making and always love to watch their workers made them ! It also doesn't hurt that they gave away free samples :). 

This wrinkle free and uber comfortable maxi dress is perfect outfit for the day. It is like wearing a yoga pants but in a dress version in granite stripes. Lightweight and I actually feel sexy wearing it because it hugs my body just enough from top to mid section and flares out a tad for ease in walking. I got lots of compliments and a perfect way to show my tan arms. The granite stripe. It was on super sale from Loft which makes me even love it even more. The wedges are as much as comfortable to walk in as I remember. We didn't do lots of walking this time so it didn't bother me a bit.

Chocolate covered apples. This delight is seriously huge and heavy, it can knock your head and hurts :)

more truffles please and my favorite pecan pralines(the one on the top right corner)

The best shrimp sandwich & crab/corn/potato soup. I ate it all ! 

 The bridge that connects Savannah to South Carolina.

 Cruising the city is also a good idea. My son said next time we come, he wants to stay in that hotel you see at the far end left. Not a bad idea.

 Trolley rides are everywhere in Savannah, they do tours around the city.

 One of the historical structure(Kehoe House) in the city.

I am mesmerized by these charming & at the same time spooky Spanish Moss hanging from huge oak trees that were all over the city.

Can't leave the city without trying their horse drawn carriage ride.

Savannah is one of those places that is unique, old soul, charming, fascinating, beautiful and rich of history at every turn.

I hope your week is off to a great start.

Thank you from the heart.

On The Set

Our Monday turns out to be an all day event. First stop was to get health assessment test at my husband's company, lunch and off to downtown ATL where we went to see what is the buzz all about. If you have heard of the AMC's hit show "The Walking Dead" than you know what I am talking about. We are not a movie groupie at all but since we are halfway to downtown anyway, then my husband told me to let's go and check it out. We might see some walkers(zombie's) on the street, lol... The streets were not blocked off to public because the actual shooting was inside the building. There were people outside patiently waiting and so we took our spot. The funny thing is, my husband were never a fan of this show. I made him watch it before and he does seen some of the episodes but that is all to it. Well last week he started watching from the first episode and now he's hook. He's trying to catch up till the new season begins. Of course I will not leave without getting out of it, right. So I started talking to this cute girl standing next to me. I ask her is she's seen anybody yet? She get all giggly and excited. It turns out that she saw bad ass redneck Darryl(Norman Reedus) when he's heading out for their lunch break and she took a picture of him next to a walker(zombie). Well, let me say I ask this totally stranger girl nicely if she can text the picture to me. And she did ! We didn't stay that long for us to see anybody but outside the building where they were currently filming the actors were nice enough to come to the window and wave to us acknowledging the fans of their show. 

Well at least we saw Rick, Carol & Darryl even from a window of a 6 story building so that is not bad at all. 

On another note, I totally embarrassed my husband and son again when I told them that we can take outfit photos in the same vicinity.

 Hesitation is not an option for me when I saw it on my husband's face. 

These people weren't there anyway to pay too much attention on us, hence the people in the background in one of the photos. 

In reference to this baby doll dress,  it is quite see-through. I resolve it by wearing a top which is a tad shorter underneath. The crochet neckline just added an extra bonus. Over all it turns out to be just one cohesive look. The fabrics for both lightweight and airy so layering for an easy peasy summer look became possible.  

I hope you have a fantastic Monday and the rest of the week.

Thank you from the heart.

xoxo
