Happy 4th of July!!

Wishing all my American followers a lovely 4th of July!

This brings back memories of picnics at the beach in the Hamptons....sighhhh, how I miss those fun days by the sea.

Have a look at Tory Burch's 4th of July entertainment suggestions, for some yummy ideas!

My True Sailor

This fashion editorial from Vogue Nippon's April issue had me gushing. I love anything sailing related, including stripes, and red, white and blue.   That yellow raincoat is also fantastic! It makes me dream of future vacations by the sea.

For whatever we lose (like a you or a me),
It's always our self we find in the sea.

A peaceful nook to read a great book!!

I am off to the U.S. east coast for some peaceful time by the sea to reenergize my batteries after a hectic three weeks of book promotion...Looking forward to running by the ocean,  eating lobster rolls and catching up with fellow author Kim Smith.
