Happy Monday friends! This was definitely one of those late in the season summer weekends that G & I are going to remember! Since Saturday was only a day of coordination for Bespoke, we were able to sneak in a date night & have a full day left to enjoy the weekend! I think making a list of anything I want to do and putting it on this blog holds me accountable and I actually get things done – we were able to check off the sunflower fields at Colby Farm that I mentioned in a post last week

 Earrings are new & they aren’t heavy at all!


Fair warning this will be my go to purse for fall & winter! I couldn’t wait to take it for a spin on Saturday night – I have a feeling it will match a lot of my wardrobe! Oh and best part is that it’s under $35 and the quality is pretty fantastic!

We made a last minute decision on Sunday morning to get a zipcar and head to Colby Farm in Newbury about 40 minutes north of the city! We both decided it was going to be our last opportunity for the next few weekends to go, so we did!

The sunflower season at Colby Farm starts in early September and people come out in droves to see it! If you don’t make it there early, you’ll be stuck in traffic & fighting the crowds to get a picture in the field! We were there by 10:00 am and thankfully it wasn’t as packed as I’ve seen on Instagram.

One thing I was not expecting – all the bumble bees! We were dodging them, but then again we were in their territory!

Excited to have marked this off our to-do list & ready for the next fun adventure! Have you ever been to a sunflower field? How was your weekend? Link up below to share it with us!

    Love that new purse!!! Where are your sunglasses from in your first picture, not the sunflower pictures? They're super cute too! It sounds like you guys had a fabulous weekend! Those sunflowers are gorgeous! Anytime I see any, it reminds me of the sunflower garden my grandfather used to have when I was little. They were always soooooooo tall!!! Hope you have a great week!

    Holy moly, Bianca, I was there that Saturday the 17th! My best friend found out about this place through one of her members. I'm a sunflower obsessed so she took me there. What an amazing place and you're so right the bumblebees, it didn't even cross my mind that they would be there- but luckily they just minded their own business. Your photos are per usual beautiful!
