Happy 99th Birthday National Park Service!

Today is the 99th birthday of one of America's greatest treasures, our National Park Service.  To celebrate we've put together a collection inspired by all the picnics that have taken place over the last century across the country at these beautiful parks.

Just Beachy!

As summer is beginning to wind down, we find ourselves longing to pop down to a beach to enjoy a good book and the sand and surf on our toes.  Unfortunately, we are a little landlocked here in the Midwest so we have decided to dedicate today's post to a wonderfully beach-y outfit and daydream instead!

This ensemble is inspired by this sensational set of 1930s beach pajamas from Guermantes Vintage:

We think it would look striking with our apple juice floral celluloid rhinestone bracelet:

And accessorized with this classic floppy brimmed hat from Love Charles Vintage:
