Fancy That Friday: Summer Solstice

Next Friday is the summer solstice, the longest day of the year for those of us in the northern hemisphere. For some folks the solstice is just another day, while for others it cause for celebration and bears spiritual significance. During this astronomical event I cannot help but marvel at the awesomeness of our universe. For billions of years this rock that we call home has traveled along its celestial path, spinning and tilting the whole while. With each rotation we living creatures are granted a fresh beginning; each axial shift ushers in a new season. This week I fancy to celebrate the solstice with:

this view of Lake Michigan.

More after the jump!

this bag by Coriumi. Just the right size to tote summer essentials to the beach.  

this light weight beach towel. Quick to dry and big enough to nap on.

this swimsuit. 

 

this simple pendant. 

this refreshing strawberry basil soda. 

this abode. Sleep soundly beneath the new summer sky.

this tune. Perfect daydreaming song to accompany gazing beyond the Lake Michigan horizon.

How will you celebrate the beginning of summer?
