Matchy Matchy at Stony Creek Brewery

Head to Toe: Top and slacks, tote, and sunglasses, Urban Outfitters // Scarf, Lilysilk // Sandals, Teva

I'm a huge Urban Outfitters fan but usually feel the price isn't worth it for the quality, which is why I turned into the actual heart eye emoji when I got an email that they were having a 50% off clearance flash sale last week. Needless to say, I stocked up on some things, like this trendy set and macrame tote bag. The cat-eye shades in the photo above were $2.50, which is a fraction of what I pay my sunglasses guy at the cart down the street from my office. I also got some basics for fall, like a white fisherman sweater and a plain black crew-neck sweatshirt. Apologies for using the F word, but I know autumn will be upon us before we know it. Tomorrow is officially August!

While the summer lasts, I have been enjoying warm-weather destinations around Connecticut. My friends have been talking about Stony Creek Brewery in Branford forever but I had never been until this past Saturday. CT friends, it lives up to the hype. The view is beautiful, and there are three levels of outdoor space and multiple cornhole boards, if that's your thing. (It's definitely not mine with my lack of hand-eye coordination, but it's fun to watch.) They have several beers on tap and wine options if you aren't a beer drinker. I chose the "Sun Juice," and it even matched my outfit. #Winning.
