HAPPY JUNE!
orange cremesicle dreams and spin-the-bottle parties


Ilse Valfreis one of my all-time favorite films, and I watch it once a year! The first time I saw the movie was back in 2006, the summer before my freshman year of highschool, and since then it’s reminded me of being a teenager, hot shorts, and the summer sunshine. I adore the film so much that I know it takes place on May 28th! I’ll definitely be re-watching it on Monday. I’m in love with Kevin Pickford ;]
the lovely ladies at Wildfox flawlessly executed a shoot inspired by the film back in 2009: http://ilovewildfox.com/iloveyouwildfox/2012/5/25/wildfox-flashback-dazed-and-confused.html

I’m craving this adorable hoodie & short set from Wildfox.
How perfect would this be for slipping on over a bikini and kissing surfers in the sand?
