COASTAL CHIC FINDS and GIFTS!!

HOT HOT HOT!!!!  Well, finally got out to the beach this weekend and it felt great to put my feet up.  I have been going full speed seven days a week for months and really needed it.  We took the ferry to Shelter Island and joined the "beautiful people" pretending to be in St. Tropez at Sunset Beach for cocktails and dinner.     When we got there my niece and I immediately noticed everyone was wearing an unflattering layer of sweat with their backless dresses as its open air and since there was no air moving , hotter than blazes.  It was still fun to people watch and we had some good laughs.  DEFINITELY a scene!!!   HEY!!! HERE we are......SNORT!!!     No matter where you end up on the weekends it's always nice to be a great house guest and show up with a memorable gift. Since no one really needs another"life is better at the beach " plaque I have on hand great house gifts that I'm sure will be appreciated.        I always like to give useful gifts and when they are vintage retro one of a kind, your hostess will truly think YOU are the mostest and you'll score big on the re-invite list.
