So Long Sweet Summer

Hey Preps!

Today is the last day of summer.  Ever.  In my whole schooling life.  Regardless of my future plans, I consider this my last summer of pure freedom.  Realizing so has left me a tad bit nostalgic, and I am going to live today to the fullest.

Last night, I had a sister date.  We went to the movies, shopped, ate too much, and it was great.  A great way to enjoy our last night of freedom.  Of course, being sisters, we decided to take pictures before we headed out on our rendezvous.

Meet my baby sis, Taryn.
Isn't she gorgeous?
I know, we look nothing like each other...let me explain from a scientific standpoint.
My sister gained my dad's dominant trait (Dd)for brown hair, and his and my mommy's recessive traits (rr) for light eyes.  Opposite of me.
Soooo, she looks just like the best dad ever....

And I look just like the best mommy in the world.

So what are we wearing?

  • We both are wearing Tommy Hilfiger Chino Shorts.  They came in so many fun colors, but we both decided on and bought navy and this light pink color.  They are fun, and can be worn with a great deal of different shirts depending on the look you are going for.  

  • ...and Polo Ralph Lauren Tops. Taryn has a V-neck T-shirt on.  I am wearing an Oxford Button-down Polo shirt (Classic Fit)...and the best part...the collar of the shirt when popped/upturned matches my pink chino shorts.  Yes...Polo Ralph Lauren encourages you to pop your collar by adding a fun color for the under-part of the collar.  I love it!

  • Accessory wise, Taryn has on a skinny belt on that matches her Original Sperrys perfectly.  I have on a sailor knot bracelet.  


Oh, and meet our little brother, Sir Maxwell Smart.  He had to get in on the picture taking.
Always the center of attention.  



Hope y'all are having a blessed Sunday!  Enjoy your last "Dog Days" of summer!  We sure are!

Hi Kalyn!

I am sorry this comment is ridiculously old but I somehow stumbled across your blog while looking for reviews of Sperrys this evening. I am looking at purchasing my very first pair! I have read all sorts of stories on various websites about Sperrys making feet really sweaty so I have been hesitant to buy a pair myself. Has this been your experience with Sperrys or are your feet always dry when you wear them?

Fantastic website, by the way! You have a new fan!

Sarah.
