May means lots of wonderful warm weather things, like flowers, Memorial Day -- and strawberries!  Here in the Garden State, the farm stands are ripe with the red ones.  They last only a couple of weeks, which makes them even more special.  Thankfully, my mom was kind enough to give me a pint (if it were up to me, then I wouldn't get around to it until it they were gone), which I promptly photographed next to her berry-themed teapot:


Also, on a less seasonal but nonetheless delicious note, I'm excited about my newish strawberry lip gloss.  It's Revlon (as are all of my favorite lip products), and I stocked up on it during the same Walgreens buy-three-and-save sale that rekindled my romance with colorful eyeshadows.  


I actually wanted cherry (don't we all?), but it was sold out (see, I told you).  Don't tell strawberry, though.  

I don't want it to hold a grudge and give me around the mouth acne.

Oh my- Your post screams springtime and I'm loving all the yellow which seems to be so popular right now. After seeing all your outfits and accessories, I feel like I want to run out and buy some beautiful yellow colored outfits. I did not see where you bought the yellow dress. I love your strawberry necklace with the whole strawberries hanging on them. I wear some revlon products but mostly I buy my lipsticks from an organic brand which is chemical free.We just drove back home from Florida and I'm guessing it must be strawberry season here. We often get mixed up with the seasons since we have been living in summer weather for the past 3 months! Enjoy all those Lucious looking strawberries.

Oh..next up..Cherry vs. Strawberry...=) ❤️

Such great 'strawberry' flair! Love the yellow too! Oh, the strawberries back east are the best! Definitely sweeter! So happy you are so close to strawberry farms. I hear that if you wash them in vinegar and water they last longer after you buy them. I have found that if I cut them up as soon as I get them I use them faster. Some I cut and freeze so they are ready for smoothies.

Thank you so much for your comments. Oh, I hope I get in some writing soon. We have had a rainy day yesterday. Which was quite nice. Only I dunno what I have done with my umbrellas. It's been that long. Always something.

Such amazing strawberry fashion. Oh, so lovely those berries and the teapot. Do you guys make strawberry tea? I noticed a recipe somewhere. I've never made it, but it does look delicious! Love your headbands and necklaces too!

Well... finally Megan and Cori's wedding has arrived...

Thanks so much for being here. I hope you are having a great week and a sweet weekend too. Very chill at the moment but it should be hot again by the weekend here.

Such a beautiful post! Love this strawberry fashion! Oh, you know it so well! Such an amazing strawberry necklace. Thanks for showcasing the STRAWBERRY! So brilliant in yellow too!

Thanks so much for your comments. I am enjoying HELLO MY GIRL even more..since it's really about a guy who goes to the college his parents went too. And he joins the Movie Club his dad had started. There he finds movies his dad had made with his mom when they first met.

Well, here's to strawberry short cake and chocolate-covered strawberries!

Wow!!! This is the best summer-is-here blog post! I am in awe at how amazing each and every one of these strawberry-themed outfits are. They are each so uniquely different and totally cute; it's impossible for me to pick a favorite! I adore how many strawberry-themed accessories and clothing items you have going on here. The strawberry barrettes you made are so cute (I especially love the pink and red one with the blue stem!) and your necklaces are so much fun. Lastly, the photo of the strawberries and the teapot is summer-picturesque. And your Revlon lipsticks are stunning!!
