I hope everyone had a wonderful long weekend! I learned that not only was it 4th of July weekend here in the States, but Canadian readers were also celebrating their Canada Day holiday this weekend!
This month is an exciting one for me, so forgive me for not talking fashion today, and instead getting a little personal. First of all, it’s my birthday month. Secondly, my boyfriend and I, after almost five years of living two hours apart in different cities, are coming close to picking a city, and finally moving in together! While we figure out logistics, my boyfriend is renting a temporary place for the month of July, where I spent most of the holiday weekend. The July rental is very exciting, because one of the perks of living in California is that sometimes you get lucky, and fall into a situation where you get to live…on the beach!!!

Literally, a few feet away from the front door:


I’d show the inside of the townhouse, but it’s a mess from moving, and is not in photographable shape.
All is not perfect however, because a very frustrating thing about the beach house is that it’s not mine there is no dedicated internet access, so we are “borrowing” from a neighbor’s open connection (they’re cool with it, I swear!)…which means it’s a poor connection, and my Mac was being a brat and refused to connect. I spent the entire weekend roaming around looking for full bars on my wireless card. No blogging for me at the beach house unless that gets fixed. =(
We explored our new temporary neighborhood in North County, San Diego a little bit, specifically the local Cold Stone Creamery (Mmm, I love ice-cream!) and the Cedros Design District in Solana Beach.

Not much petite friendly fashion down there (lots of oversized, loose fitting beach wear…bleh), unless you count what I wore:

Most shops at the Design District were home decor, so we wandered around mostly uninterested since we’re not looking to decorate anytime soon. We did stumble upon this giant wall of puppets in one of the shops though. Neat, but also a little creepy.

Hope everyone had a great weekend. Back to the regularly scheduled petite fashion program next post…
