The Way to Do Summer....

 


doesn't this image just scream
"YOU MUST WEAR WHITE!"



or this one....
  fontana de trevi in Roma,
evoking images of Sophia Loren like this one...

 


& as I celebrate my birthday I remember thinking, back to the time when she looked like this,
that she was so much older than me :)'s,
and now I think just how beautiful she actually was and still is.

the fact that we age is an entirely different subject (which I will get to eventually this summer),
but for now we are talking WHITE APPAREL...

I know you won't believe this, but it's a design of Kayne West,
& I do love it !



don't you love those red toes?
you see, this is like a little gift, both to the woman and the people who see them.
a tiny way to take care of yourself so that it shows & yet it's your's.
and the sandals?  yep, I love them too !
flowersgardenlove: white Beautiful gorgeous pretty flowers
& along with white clothes we need white flowers, any kind of white flower will do,
but summer means white to me.

    Love white. I thought Diane Keaton wore it so well in Something's Gotta Give... Have a great weekend, Marsha.

    White is great for Summer, but you need a tan.
    I haven't seen many Sunny days here this month, Maine is chilly.
    Love the white slacks.
    Have a great Summer Marsha.

    I love this post Marsha..you had me at the twinkling sea...gorgeous images...my wardrobe is full of summer whites; nothing lovelier. I agree with you about Sophia Loren; she exudes beauty and sexiness whatever her age...looking forward to your post on ageing ;)

Please know how much I value your comments. I read every single one and do hope you will take the time to leave your thoughts. I think InstaGram with the Emojis have taken a lot away from blogging, but I love IG too.
