Photo by Kate Miss.
Red lipstick and necklaces are my go to accessories. Which is probably what first drew me to Kate and her blog, For Me, For You. She is always sporting the best lip color or non color, and she makes and sells these intricately, simple hand woven necklaces and bracelets from time to time. You have to get on her mailing list because they sell out in about 24 hours. Aside from the great lipstick choices and handmade neckwear, what really sold me on Kate, are her photos. She often uses real film that she takes to have developed each week, you don’t need me to tell me that’s a rarity. Her photos have this quiet nostalgic quality to them and make me want to jump right in her weekend. Especially that beach photo shown above.
Kate made this mix that I’ve been listening to all week. Here’s what she said about it. This is a mix to listen to for a hot summer day at the beach. On the way to the beach, on the beach, and then the songs slow down for the ride home. Bare feet dug into the sand required for listening.
