When I arrived back from Hong Kong earlier this Summer you have no idea how badly I wanted to spend some time to unwind. I love travelling and I've been so grateful for all the opportunities I've had to travel this year but, I eventually start to miss Toronto and it just feels so great to come back home. I got to go up to my bff/sometimes photographer Christopher's cottage in Wasaga Beach the week after I came back and it was honestly amazing being able to relax and I ended up spending a good portion of time playing in the water.
I wore my cute
Marcie Cold Shoulder Swing Dress from
Pink Clove and a necklace from Nasty Gal one evening on a bike ride and the beach ended up being completely empty so Chris and I decided to take a sunset dip. I love the water, I've always loved the water, it's odd because I've never given myself the chance to learn to swim, I'm honestly terrified to go under but love being in it still. I just wish I was a mermaid.

Canadian National Exhibition or CNE is a yearly tradition for me (check out last years post here, and the year before that here). Sadly, I always end up postponing going and end up going on the hottest/busiest weekend aka last weekend before it closes. I'm promising myself that next year I will go closer to the opening date rather than the closing weekend. I didn't end up taking any pictures of the delicious food I ate since, it's the typical CNE staples that I get every year. I wore my new adorable Tilly Dress from Voodoo Vixen. I thought it was perfect for the vibrant CNE, the dress is super airy so I was pretty comfy even through the heatwave. The Canadian National Exhibition is always my Summertime favourite, what did you get up to this Summer? Any Summertime Favourites?
