During the summer months keep cool with lightweight bare-ly-there lingerie. Subject your intimates drawer to the same seasonal overhaul that your closet goes through. Put away the flannels and free the feather-weight options.

Opt for thin, lace skivvies, comfortable bralettes and seamless boyshorts. Sleep in delicate rompers, cami-sets and free-flowing tanks. With these comfortable and cool bare-ly there options your body and boyfriend will thank you.

Three sweaters in, I realized they all had stripes. I’ve written about my love of stripes in the past, but I finally succumbed to the fact that I may have an addiction.

There’s a bit in the TV show Happy Endings (fabulous, hilarious, watch if you aren’t) where the character Dave is given a V-neck intervention. Friends, you are welcome to begin my stripe-obsession-intervention.

What We Packed

casual here in New Hampshire, regardless of the weather. The rainy days were spent at the coffee shop, wandering around Portsmouth and watching movies.  The second the sun came out, it was all about the beach – dresses and no shoes. Love that! Here’s a sample of what the two of us brought for some time out of the Big Apple.
