Maybe it's my raised-in-Mississippi sweetheart, but there's something so charming, so delightful about a seersucker suit, particularly when it's paired with a striped bow tie! Tell me, do you swoon for seersucker or despise it?This weekend was blissfully quiet; after a Saturday morning spent catching up with a girlfriend and a much-needed nap with John, we met up with a friend visiting from Germany for a cocktail at Absinthe and sushi at our favorite neighborhood spot, Jimisan! Sunday started off grey and rainy, so an early morning stroll to Trouble Coffee for a hot chocolate and a slice of pumpkin bread was in order. We came home and got to work, John on his arrangements and me the blog-there's so much I can't wait to share with you all!
Fueled by cocoa, we worked until John whipped up a magnificent lunch and the sun started to shine. It was such a treat to hear him practice the guitar at home (he normally shuts himself into a practice room at school), and we wiled away the last few hours of the weekend sipping rosé and grinning at each other over two days well spent.
What were you up to this weekend?

Sounds like such a lovely weekend! Oh, and I die for seersucker. It's a new thing, but it's getting stronger every day.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful weekend!! Seersucker is divine and there is nothing like being fueled on Hot Cocoa to get things done!!!
ReplyDeletei love seersucker but you rarely see it down here. i see it most often on a coworker originally from the northeast.

i love seersucker and my man loves to wear his bowties.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great weekend. I went to Napa for some wedding festivities. Wonderful times all around.

ReplyDeleteCouldn't agree more! The only thing better than a seersucker suit is a striped bow tie WITH a seersucker suit :)
ReplyDeleteI spent the weekend with my John :) He came to visit Austin for the first time and we had so much fun running around the city! He also met with a recruiter while he was here, so hopefully it was only the first of lots and lots of future weekends...fingers crossed!
Have a great Monday! xoxo
