A Day at the Beach, an Outfit Post with a Twist

Its been a busy two weeks for us so things have been a little quiet on the blogging front. I have had the most amazing coast vacation with my sweetie. Will and I travelled to Long Beach on the Washington coast for a weekend celebration of our 5 year anniversary of dating. We totally lucked out with the weather and it was sunny for our entire stay!On Monday we had a very secluded picnic on the beach. I decided to wear my new Vanilla & Lace dress with some Hunter rain boots. We drove up Long Beach a little ways, outside of the touristy area and found beach access which you can drive out on. Yes, thats right: in Washington you can drive on the beach. I kept feeling like we were doing something wrong and Will had to keep telling me to stop worrying. We parked our car and set out a picnic and there was no one around!I wore my Hunter rain boots, although it did not rain our entire visit, it did help cover my ghostly white legs!You may want to lean in a sec because I have secret to share with you....I am engaged....to this amazing man!Isnt my ring beautiful?!
