I’ve been feeling really grateful for these long summer days recently. && even though our nights and weekends seem really busy (as they do to everyone I’m sure) the extra daylight always helps.  I think that’s a big reason why I always feel like doing more things in the summertime–opposed to going home and curling up in my pjs like I tend to do in the winter haha.  So I figured I would share some fun date ideas!  None of these are ground breaking ideas but they are all casual, realistic, inexpensive & things that would put me in a happy mood!

1:  FARMERS MARKET STROLL & BRUNCH— I love this idea because it’s something you can do after a Saturday morning workout.  Buy some fresh flowers to take home (I kind of fell in love with these sun flowers for warm days) and then find somewhere to grab food at an outside table!

2:  MIDWEEK MOVIE NIGHT— I love going to the movies on a week night!  It’s the perfect way to break up the week.  We like to catch a 7:30-8:30 showing.  That way we can still get in a workout & dinner after work.  It feels good to disconnect for a couple of hours and then go home and hop in bed.  We always pick a theater where we can get a glass of wine while watching too!

3:  COFFEE SHOP SITTING—  On Saturday/Sunday mornings we love to go to our favorite coffee shop and get our lattes for here instead of to-go.  It’s so nice to just sit down and have a coffee instead of rushing out the door with it.  We people watch or look at silly videos on our phone and just take some time to remember it’s the weekend.

4: NETFLIX & CHILL WITH A DOCUMENTARY— There are so many good options out there that aren’t a tv series or movie.  We love to switch things up with a documentary.  Our favorites recently have been The Defiant Ones (it’s actually on HBO), Making a Murderer & The Queen of Versailles.

5: NEIGHBOORHOOD STROLL AT DUSK— Taking the dog for a walk after dinner is one of my favorite things to do.  I always feel better if I move around after I eat and it can be so relaxing.  We ususlly talk about all the different houses we pass, pointing out things we like or don’t like and sometimes we have a little glass of wine in hand too!

Let me know if you all enjoy any of these same things!  We find that simple date nights are often best!

&& I do want to share a little about my jewelry in these photos with you all too!  I have been a long time fan of Margaret Elizabeth.  Their pieces have a 24k gold overlay and the most gorgeous precious stones.  I think I love the brand so much because the pieces are unique AND high quality.  I wear mine with anything from jeans and a v-neck tee to a lace dress and heels.  The newest addition to their collection?  This three stone Bixby bangle.  I am LOVING mine.
