When the Livin’ is Easy

Celebrating the Roaring Twenties in a Special Series

Ohhh, say it isn’t so, summer isn’t over already? Although it is a relief that my apartment has finally cooled down after the heatwave, I am still a little sad to farewell summertime. Summer will forever be associated with holidays, that wonderful feeling of freedom that one has upon waking in the mornings. But long hot days must give way, so let it be to mellow, golden autumn and the crisp air, and the beauty of falling leaves.

I’ll bid the season adieu with this flapper inspired summer outfit and a parasol. Cheerio summer, until a long year passes …

Summertime and the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high …
