Smitten With Summer Series: Carolyn of Vintage Mulberry


Happy Tuesday Loves! Today I have the very sweet Carolyn of Vintage Mulberry is sharing the reasons she loves summer so much! Carolyn's shop Mulberry Heights Antiques in Birmingham, Alabama, is full of timeless, gorgeous French and English antiques hand picked by Carolyn herself.
Her shop alone is a good enough reason to book a plane ticket to Alabama!


My favorite summer vacation spot is our own beach house in Destin, Florida. My DREAM vacation spot is St. John!



A lightweight summery style dress or white skinny jeans and a cute top!



Right now it's Jason Aldean and Kenney Chesney!


My favorite summer drink is fresh squeezed Limeade with Splenda that we order a lot from our favorite neighborhood sandwich shop on the corner right down from my shop.



My favorite summer recipe is Chris Hasting's Hot and Hot Tomato Salad



Tropical drink in hand! and sunscreen and a cute coverup!



I love the shampoo I found from L'Oreal that battles the humidity here in Alabama and helps to straighten my hair!


Thanks, for participating, Carolyn! I'm in absolutely in love with her adorable beach house! It's as sweet as she is.

  16. You know it's my fave series. Love all things summer and I'm hoping that it starts to slow down a bit. Can't believe it's August already!

    Her beach house is adorable and I love St. John. I'll be down there again in November. One of my favorite places on earth. The most gorgeous beaches and it's so quiet. :)

    Hope you're having a great week! xoxo
