SAY IT ISN'T SO: WHERE DID SUMMER GO? SOME SUMMERY WAYS TO SAY FAREWELL
So long summer, it's been fun. Wishing you all a fantastic Labor Day Weekend, the last hurrah. Hoping you have had plenty of sun, sand and surf, enough to last through the coming fall and winter, regardless of the forecast. Have a lovely holiday and to send you off in style, I have selected some stylish and spirited items to make the final moments of summer enjoyable.

Every summer I wish I had more lobster rolls and lobster in general. I'm not sure why I love them so much, I just do. Given the lack of bib-wearing I did, I think this sparkly gem of a lobster, Leah, from jeweler Kara Ross would make a great addition to a festive table when entertaining. Or, she can take up permanent residence on my coffee, since she adds the right amount of glamour to my accessory assortment.
