Style Scouting: Vol. 199
Thanks for stopping by for this week’s Style Scouting. My Sunday post where I share the random stuff that captured my attention or inspired me that I found online.
The annual 4th of July celebration on the lake I live on was last night with fireworks over the lake. It was a little early, but they like to celebrate before the 4th instead of after. We can see them perfectly from our house so we had a party to celebrate it all.
With the way July 4th falls within the week, we will celebrate again on Thursday. If you live in the USA, I hope you have an enjoyable day celebrating our country’s independence.

“No one keeps every book they read which means the ones they keep are important. A person’s library is like a fingerprint. The books on their shelves are a collection of memories and wishes. They’re as unique as a snowflake.”- Nora, from the Secret Society
