If you've been reading my blog, you must know by now that I love the beach and the ocean. I could go there every day, heck, I could live on the beach and never get tired of it. The beach is my escape, the place I recharge my batteries and reminds me to enjoy the simple things in life.

Every occasion we get, we go there, but we tend to choose beaches that are not as crowded. So, of course that's where we ended up during the long holiday weekend we had. We went to a small beach in Encinitas, CA (a city I absolutely love), usually attended by surfers, and very few people, or at least that's how we found it each time.

We soaked in some sun, the amazing ocean air, the cooling breeze along with some salty waves. We walked, we sat down admiring the ocean, until we felt the sun rays starting to burn us, we played with the waves and studied the different rocks and patterns we found. So, in short, we had fun - our kind of fun.

​This white dress I'm wearing here is definitely one of my favorites. It's what I mean or envision when I speak of summer dresses. Wearing a long white dress was what I always had in my head when I imagined myself walking on some exotic beach (and this is as close as it gets). This little beach though is not too far from some exotic place we always admire in pictures. Judge for yourself.

Do you have a favorite beach? What do you like to do at the beach? Please share.

XOXO,
