There is so much happening in the world today that Father’s Day seems to be in the back of everyone’s mind. The day to celebrate all the special men in your life is around the corner- June 21st. I will still be here in Columbus on Father’s Day to celebrate with my parents. Although I am eager to get back to New York, I am glad that I will be here. My dad means the world to me, he truly is the greatest man I have ever known.

For the past few years, hats have become a staple part of my seasonal wardrobe. In the summer, however, they are more than just for style, I wear them to protect my face from the sun. Although I love the sun shining on my skin while I lay poolside or simply reading a book out on the patio, I am also someone who takes precautions to protect myself from sun damage. I always wear SPF and when I know I will be out and about for a while, I will throw on a sun hat (sometimes ball cap if need be).

Although restrictions seem to be lifting in most states, our plans this summer changed from being poolside to watching nature enjoy the sunshine from our windows. Things may not be ideal this year, but it does not mean we can not enjoy our beloved summer dresses. I still plan on wearing flowy florals, easy throw-ons, and little white dresses. Something that I can wear around the house, to the grocery store, and hopefully a restaurant someday soon.
Back in March when I was packing to temporarily move to Columbus to wait out the COVID-19, I was in the mindset I would only be here for a month. I ignorantly (or just in denial) did not expect the virus to still be very much present. I did not expect to possibly spend my summer in Ohio. At the beginning of the year, I envision my summer spent in the Hamptons, frolicking around the city, and maybe a trip to Charleston. Clearly that is not happening….as of now.
