The Ageless Style Link Up- The first Monday of every month a group of over forty fashion bloggers pick a monthly theme and show different ways of styling it.
This month's Ageless Style Theme is "Summer Love" and was chosen by Daenel. She told us that she did not have instructions for us and to just have fun with the theme. Everyone on the team was pretty happy to hear this! For me it was a relief because ever since the Coronovirus and subsequent lockdowns, I haven't been buying any new clothes (well, I did buy two new pair of sneakers) nor have I been going anywhere to need any new clothes. But after all the months of staying home, and then weeks of horrific violence in America, hubby and I were ready to get out and have some fun and try to put it all out of minds even if for only a little while. We decided to have one of our "Sunday Fun Days" and after our church service, we grabbed some subs, and headed to a local state park for a picnic lunch and nature trail walk.
We enjoyed looking at this beautiful lake view while we ate our lunch.
Summer Love for me is all about getting out and enjoying the outdoors. I spend most of my summer days in my own "Garden of Eden", my backyard, but when I'm not there you will most likely find me hiking somewhere with my husband. We are huge nature lovers and love to hike.
The trail we took this day was a short but sweet one. The "Beaver Meadow Trail" is an easy one mile trail in Lake Wissota Wisconsin State Park. It is a loop through a forest with views of a pond and a little creek. It was so peaceful and so refreshing to be in the quiet of the woods during such tumultuous times. We enjoyed it so very much and our spirits were lifted.
We never saw any beavers, just a couple of ducks, but that's ok because I see lots of beavers just down the road from my house.
And now, be sure and check out the other ladies of Ageless Style to see how they interpreted the theme "Summer Love"
Have A Great Day! Amy

Thanks! Yes, I love the metallic touch. It adds something special to a generic tee.
DeletePerfect places to go: church and God's backyard. I am grateful to have a nature trail behind our house. Your outfit looks lovely. Glad you are enjoying some time out and about, although you do have a beautiful garden of Eden at home! :-)

I think it's affected everyone's fashion. I heard clothing sales are down 50% and if people are buying clothes it's just tops because that's what you can see in Zoom meetings. ha ha!
DeleteWhat a beautiful lake! I love to run outdoors and my son has been in cross country this year, so we've been exploring a lot of new (to us) parks and it has been great to just get out. I'm sure your garden is gorgeous.
