Slipping into September

The Cape is slowly slipping into September, this most beautiful month that bridges summer into fall.  Sometimes we have a day warm enough to enjoy the beach, but evening falls most noticeably earlier and the air is most decidedly crisp. 

The purple hydrangea is the quintessential flower of this time & place. The vibrant bloom synonymous with summer colored a deeper shade for fall.

Are you enjoying Cape Cod in September? I am.

Inspiration: Turquoise

Still obsessing about these shoes:

So a little inspiration for the wedding that coordinates with the shoes:

{ Top: Both from Martha Stewart

Middle: Wedding Paper Divas, Bouquet from Elizabeth Anne Designs

Bottom: Ring Pillow & Cake both from The Knot, Dress by Kenneth Pool }

Tuesday Shoesday: Holy Turquoise

See them there? On the bike?

Now up close:

Inject a pop of Turquoise (the Pantone 2010 Color of the Year) into a Shoreside wedding? Yes, please.

(Plus, love the bicycle built for two, the short dress, the beachy background...Yes, this is pretty much the most perfect picture ever.)
