Happy first of July y’all! July makes me happy and sad all at the same time. It’s a reminder that we are about half way through summer break and thats sad to me. It’s also a chance to continue to check off my summer bucket lists and make new ones. This weekend we are knocking off a couple my bucket list items and hopefully organizing/cleaning out our closet. It’s kinda sad when organizing your closet is on your bucket list but thats called #adulting – ha! This stripe swing dress will be an item I will NOT be throwing out during my closet clean out since it’s the perfect throw on,  under $40 and comes in three different colors. I love the tank detail on this darling for those extra hot summer days oh and the lace up back is perfection. This dainty pineapple necklace is also the perfect summer accessory.

I thought it would be fun to list a few of my summer bucket lists below:

  • Tube (this weekend)
  • BBQ (this weekend)
  • Pop fireworks (this weekend)
  • Hang in Galveston (this weekend)
  • Go to a real blue water beach
  • Get VERY tan
  • Back into shape
  • Winery Night
  • Two stepping
  • Pool night
  • Travel to a different country
  • Go to coffee with 3 new people
  • Have a lake day

Is that a good enough bucket list? Let me know if I am missing anything! We never did these growing up so its fun to do them now. I also would love to hear your list for the summer! I hope you all stay safe this weekend and I can’t wait to see what you all are up to via snapchat (dederaad) && IG.
