Pairing a high neck mini dress with flats is one of those retro looks I have been loving lately. What's even better is that this dress (along with many others from Zara's summer line) have shorts underneath! So in case you were wondering, you now don't have to worry about pulling your legs up on the bench outside to enjoy your cold brew with your bae in the sun! Impromptu day dates, like the one in which I wore this dress, are my favourite. They don't have to be elaborate by any means; it just feels good to get out of the house and go for a simple stroll for an iced drink. I love that about summer.
I also love the details this dress offers; a ruffled neckline, a deep V in the back, and made with the perfect lightweight, white cotton to withstand summer's heat. I must also introduce you to a new friend-- the white Micro Lexi bucket bag I scored on the online Rebecca Minkoff sample sale. It's the perfect mini bag for summer. I had been on the hunt for a white bag for the longest time; something to dress up or down and hold just the essentials. Mission accomplished!
In need of some impromptu day date activities? Here are some of my summertime favourites:
Ice cream and a walk
Bicycle rides around town
Take a drive to a quaint part of town and explore
Vintage furniture hunting / garage sale searching
Picnic in the park
Day at the lake / beach
Trip to Centre Island
Jays Game in the sun (dome open, please!)
Jays Game in the sun (dome open, please!)
Brunch and a matinée
Berry picking / farmer's market
Glass of rosé on the patio
Driving range to hit some balls
What are some of your favourite summer activities? Whether it be with friends/family/ or your love?

I love how a high neck mini dress feels so retro. Your white sunnies are too fun with it. And day dates are the best!
